ce+ §M %ceernaeog 515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117 -1600 (651) 484 -2177 / FAX: (651) 484 -4538 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Fahey & Members of the City Council FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator DATE: September 4, 1998 RE: Functional Consolidation — Turn -back Resolution MAYOR Michael I. Fahey COUNCIL Beverly Scalze Jim LaValle Steve Moreton Bob Pedersen ADMINISTRATOR Joel R. Hanson Please find attached for your consideration the proposed resolution for the turn-backs of County Road B2 from Edgerton Street to Arcade Street, Flower Street (B2) from Rice Street to Viking Drive, and Twin Lake Boulevard from the Vadnais Heights/Little Canada border on the west to the Vadnais Heights /Little Canada border on the east. Our adoption of this resolution will be consistent with past approvals governing the overall functional consolidation of roadway program. It should be noted that the County has upgraded the work to be done on County Road B2 from Edgerton to Arcade by adding it to the recycle program versus a patch and sealcoat that was previously stated. As has been mentioned earlier, the County will be undertaking some significant drainage improvements in this area as well as additional drainage corrections on County Road B2 on the west side of I35. Twin Lake Boulevard was recycled in 1992 and is not in need of any attention at this time. As you will recall, these street will automatically go on our Municipal State Aid (MSA) system and increase our annual allotments of these funds. We will be plowing these roadways in the winter of 1998/99. By copy of this letter, I am also notifying the residents along County Road B2 from Edgerton to Arcade of this action. We had a neighborhood meeting with these people on the ls` of September. They were brought up -to -date with the corrections proposed and they raised some additional issues which are being evaluated by the appropriate agencies. (I will be presenting further action items for your consideration on this topic at a future meeting.) A copy of the neighborhood meeting minutes is enclosed for your review. It is my recommendation that we adopt the resolution as proposed. It is essential to do it at this time because our inaction would impact other jurisdictions within Ramsey County who are also waiting to have their resolutions processed in ajoint proposed. Should you have any comments or questions on this topic, please let me know.
