I Discussion Items I
Richfield Parkway
Transportation ETineer Pearson and Hale presented options regarding the connection of Richfield Parkway/17th Avenue to Bloomington
Avenue along 63 Street at the south end of Taft Park. probably name specific parks in the policy. Topitzhofer said that vacating the road
would present opportunity to put in filtering ponds and gain park land. Shotwell said that the redesigned roadway may attract redevelopment,
the holding ponds would clean up the water, and the new roadways would make the park more visible and accessible. Schmidt asked if MAC
has been approached about vacating the road around the lake; Hale said that they are in favor of vacating ft. The group discussed the
different options: roundabout at Bloomington and 63rd, regular four-way intersection at Bloomington and 63" , two curved corners, and coming
up around Taft Lake. Topitzhofer asked the group if anybody favored the road around the lake, which would affect the ability to vacate the
road. No members preferred that option; the group agreed by consensus that the road around the lake is the least favorable option. Mangold
and others preferred the "flow" option that would put non -intersection curves at both corners (south end of Bloomington; north end of 17"' Ave).
Topitzhofer said that all three prevailing options seem to have similar impact on the park. Hale agreed; Pearson said that the two options
where residences are lost could be a potential gain to the park. Pearson asked the group if, between the two intersection options, the four-way
was preferred to the roundabout because of questions about alteration to the road or more land needed. The group agreed by consensus that
the four-way intersection was preferred over the roundabout. Edgerton said that it would be crucial to recommend a plan that considers design
elements that are consistent with the Master Park Plan as it relates to pedestrian -friendly corridor spaces and beautification of the parkway that
would compliment the park.
Garbage Hauling Options
Mangold told the group about a meeting held with Topitzhofer and Nature Center Manager/Recycling Coordinator Karen Shragg about the
possible options for waste hauling that could lighten the wear on the roads and decrease the traffic. Mangold said that there were a few
options mentioned: having the haulers agree to have just one of them remove yard waste, decrease the number of licensed haulers in
Richfield by attiftion, etc.
