MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />JULY 12, 2000 <br />The foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Pedersen. <br />Ayes (4) Morelan, Pedersen, Scalze, Fahey. <br />Nays (0). Resolution declared adopted. <br />REQUEST FOR John Miller, Pitrina Park Townhome Association, appeared before the <br />LOWERING Council requesting that the speed limit on Centerville Road in the area <br />OF SPEED of Allan Avenue be lowered. Miller described some of the hazards which <br />LIMIT ON exist at the intersection and noted the additional traffic at the intersection <br />CENTERVILLE since the development of the Pitrina Park townhomes. <br />ROAD <br />Fahey pointed out that Centerville Road is a county road and the <br />recommendation from staff is that the petition from the Pitrina Park <br />Townhome Association be forwarded on to Ramsey County. The City <br />Administrator reported that once the County receives the petition, it will <br />request that the State conduct a speed study in this area of Centerville <br />Road. However, the State typically bases speed limits on the speeds at <br />which traffic is traveling. Therefore, there is the chance that the speed <br />limit could be raised rather than lowered. <br />Council discussed the area and it was their consensus that the County look <br />at the entire length of Centerville Road as well as County Road D to <br />Edgerton Street in conducting their study. Council felt that a speed limit <br />of 35 mph would be most appropriate. <br />Mr. Morelan introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: <br />RESOLUTION NO. 2000-7--166 -ACCEPTING THE PITRINA PARK <br />TOWNHOME ASSOCIATION PETITION AND REQUESTING THAT <br />RAMSEY COUNTY CONDUCT A SPEED ANALYb7S OF <br />CENTERVII.I.E ROAD FROMLITTI.E CANADA ROAD TO <br />COUNTYROAD D AND COUNTYROAD D FROM CENTERVILLE <br />ROAD TO EDGERTON WITH THE COUNCIL'S POSITION THAT <br />THE SPEED LIMIT SHOULD I3E LOWERED TO 35 MILES PER <br />HOUR <br />The foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Scalze. <br />Ayes (4) Morelan, Scalze, Pedersen, Fahey. <br />Nays (0).
