Council Member Baun suggests that relative to all the pathways, concrete should be used unless authorized for other use. Charlie Bann left the meeting 6:51pm. Commissioner Deckers asked on the residential or neighborhood pathways, would the City of Eagle consider having a private and public access. The standards don't necessarily need to be different, but it might be clearer on intent when it's within a subdivision. General Discussion. Chairman Huffaker asked that as a city, are we not trying to trend toward not having any exclusive private pathways. Why are we not requiring everything to be public. Steve Noyes stated that as an example, between a recreation facility and a swimming pool, neither are public. If there is a common area with a recreation center and a swimming pool with a pathway between them, the city to ask for a public access easement is inappropriate. General Discussion.
