Item No. 2
Amb/ ...Is the fntent to keep thIs natural and preslene as possible?
110 more sever than what we have In Rose lit 117
Karen Ifradekl Hlnlu Impact and as nalural as possible. No motored vehIcles or
mountaIn bIkes. People on foot.
Amb/ln order to build a trail I take It you'll have to go In and cut SOlllll bush out?
Ifradek/ lie will carefully consIder the elevallon because It does rise to 100 foot
vertIcal climb and that's Why 1 wanted Hark to comment because he 15 really
good. Ife took me thru
Amb/ 11111 there be a base put on the trail?
Ifradek/ It will be a small gravel limestone mIx 'that helps kill what's underneath
from comfng up thru and there wIll be SOlllll water bars to devert water correctly.
IIhen thIs Is done I want ft done correctly because I don't want to go back and
say.. '

Amb/ 1 do too.
Ifradek/ Yea, that's why Hark Is just excellent.
Kubby/ ...how to keep the bIkers off because of Iffckory Iflll....sfgns say 110 vehIcles
but they don't consIder themseleves vehIcles. Ifow are you gOfng....what type
of sfgn?..more celarly even though I don't thfnk that's gofng to stop people from
bIcyclIng on It. ,
Ifradek/ Somo of tho nature arm, soma of the pralrfes that I visit have little
lIke cattle entrIes and they turn corners. Even It got to be a problem we
could buIld a fence everywhere and then put these things that you have to kind
of go thru to get thru. AgaIn people could always 11ft a bIke over If they had
too but It would be harder to get In.
larson/ I thInk they know that they weren't meant to be there.
Ifradek/ Yea. And I f they can read.
Kubby/ lIell we have sIgns lIke thIs for the City Plaza and they don't read.
Ifradek/ I know. I know. There's always somebody.
Larsonl Ifow wide are you plannIng the traIts?
Ifradek/ 6 foot wIde. You clear 6 foot wIde, you have a 4 foot actual trait. And
8 foot hIgh. And then It will grow back Into a 4 foot wIde traIts. It will
probably come down a lIttle bIt you know.
Larson/ ...have a concern especIally wIth emergency vehIcle on traIls and thIngs
and that was my concern.
Ifradek/ I would think they could get up there If they need too. Yea. lIe'll
consIder than when how many set.backs

Larsonl Iflrlng a trail e~pert too.
Ifradekl lIell. he's not hIred. he's advisory. Ife's wltllng to help us with this and
do I t right.
KubbYI ... know you've been worktng a long tlmo.....
Ifradekl It was e~cttlng to see this all como togelher
NovIckI ....
llradekl Probably not. I went thru the Roosevelt ravIne with Hark Edwards and he
showed me a number of thtngs and optIons and how things could b~ done with
Ryerson 1I00ds and water bars could pretty much take care of It. Dlvertln? water
before It becomes a problem and usIng natural ttmbers to do that but that s up
for grabs yet. lIe're still In the plannIng stages.
NovIckI Before you go away I would lIke to amend the resolutton Just slIghtly.
Number 3 says "The Parks DivIsIon of the Parks and RecreatIon will be responslbl~
for the low maintenance of thIs are". and'we need to say area. And I donlt
thInk we need to say It wIll be ~ponslble for "low" maIntenance. I don't think
that qualIfIes maIntenance In the way can w~ just say malnten&nce because ~vary.
, body knows that It wl11 be desIgned for mtnlmum maIntenance.
Ilradek/ I would thInk so. I haven't gotten to see the
NovIckI If you wouldn't mInd If we took out the word "low".
Ilradekl FIne. I heard the resolutlon over the phone so I dIdn't get to see how
the words fell togethor on paper.
HcDI Thatls fine.
NovickI Okay.
larsonl KInd of a potltlcal statement more th&n anythIng else.
,
NovIckI I thInk It's nIce to say we goIng to maIntain the trail but It sounds like
you're not goIng to do It rtght.
Ilradekl Yea.
HcDI Do wo need a motIon on th&t?
Karrl I don't belleve It's a substttlve ch&nge.
GentrYI I don't think Itls substltttlve.
KeD/Okay. Th&nk you K&ren. Other dlscusston? Roll call.
