Participation Details
Balance of Values
Value all input at all stages
Participation is not everyone getting what they want
Big picture – long term view – Vision Edina
Opportunities for change are infrequent - every 50-years
Street reconstruction is the easiest

Design Considerations
Staff Comments
Existing street is not centered in right-of-way
Ped and Bike Master Plan – more emphasis on shared use paths
Users of share use paths – kids, families, “interested but concerned”
Remove bikes from the road for the most possible users
Reminder – needs to meet Municipal State Aid standards
