~~C7 CURBING Ljungren felt that in constructing the storm sewer with the necessary HOYT AVE. catch basins and other appurtenances, that-some slight revision in CONTD. grade might be necessary along Hoyt Avenue, as well as relocation of -some of the catch basins. He also mentioned the possibility that the curb might be damaged by heavy construction equipment. LARPE"~1TEUR Village Engineer Ljungren reported he had met with the County AVENUE Engineers and had gone over the preliminary plans wi±.h them.. IP~IPROVEil.ENT They informed .him that if the Village will take care of getting the five or six necessary construction easements on the North Side of Larpenteur, between Pascal and Alrert, the County will modify-its backslopes and lay a sidewalk bench for .future use all along the improvement. Ljungren also presented a letter from Ramsey County wherein they stated they are submitting to us for approval, through him, plan sheets of the proposed Larpenteur Avenue Construction Project. This project, beginning at Arona and terminating at Fernwood, will be constructed this summer. Afield inspection on the site has been made by Ljungren and County Engineer Representative Knute Ancker. They discussed the Larpenteur Avenue Grade, the grades of Village streets affected by the project, and the storm sewer design. The contract will have a provision requiring that the west one- half of Arona be kept open to traffic at all times, subject to sewer instllations. It may be that a greater portion of the inter- section can be kept open to traffic. ,The plans provide for high early strength concrete at the intersections. This will enable traffic to cross the pavement after approximately 72 hours of curing.
