515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117 -1600 <br />[612) 484 -2177 / FAX: (612) 484 -4538 <br />September 19, 1997 <br />TO: Mayor Fahey and Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Joel R. Hanson, City Administrator <br />RE: Request for Widening ofMcMenemy Road <br />MAYOR <br />Michael I. Fahey <br />COUNCIL <br />Beverly Scalze <br />Jim LaVaile <br />Steve Morelan <br />Bob Pedersen <br />ADMINI5 IRA7OR <br />Joel R Hanson <br />Attached is a letter from Christine Christofore requesting that the west side of <br />McMenemy Road between St. John's School and Rose Lane be widened before winter. <br />In discussing this matter with her, I stated that the steep grade of the hill will require <br />some extensive earth work and possibly a retaining wall. I stated our crews did not have <br />the time available for this type of undertaking on rather short notice. I also pointed out <br />the County is planning for the improvement of McMenemy Road between Viking Drive <br />and Little Canada Road as part of their 1998 improvement cycle. I feel it would be <br />inappropriate to undertake any significant work which may be impacted by the recycling <br />of this road next year. <br />I informed Ms. Christofore that she raises a very valid concern, but it would be better to <br />address it with 1998's work program. <br />cc: Ms. Christine Christofore <br />Page 58 <br />
