LASSOCIATES, IN'i3!t <br />Consulting Engineers —Land Surveyors <br />City Council <br />City of Little Canada <br />515 E. Little Canada Road <br />Little Canada, Minn. 55117 <br />Dear Council Members: <br />500 West Highway 96 <br />St. Paul, Minnesota 55112 <br />484-3301 <br />July 13, 1984 <br />RE: Street Paving <br />Frattalone Subdivision <br />As a result of the Council meeting last night, July 11, 1984, it was <br />decided that no building permit could be issued on property where the <br />street is not paved. <br />In view of the numerous ordinance changes that have taken place in the <br />past couple of years, I am not an authority on what the ordinance states <br />nor do I believe anyone else is. I, therefore, did not debate the issue. <br />We have now read the ordinance (a copy is attached) which we interpret <br />as saying that paving is not required but must have been "arranged for." <br />We will proceed with density (compaction) test during the coming week as <br />per our discussion. <br />Despite the results of these tests, we still recommend the paving for the <br />spring of 1985. We base this recommendation on 35 years of experience <br />dealing in clay sub soil. <br />Our policy has been and will continue to be; to allow a cycle of fall <br />rains, winter freezing and spring thaws to take place as a more comprehensiv <br />test of the subgrade than anything done in the laboratory, especially in <br />clay soil with which we are dealing in this case. <br />We will pursue the other instructions relating to a bond guarantee to be <br />furnished by the developer which would correspond to our policy regarding <br />City projects . <br />We would appreciate your comments as soon as possible. <br />Yours truly, <br />MILNER W. CARLEY & ASSOCIATES, INC. <br />l'll, <br />Donald 0. Carley, P.C. <br />Vice Pres. <br />CC: Fahey, Scalze, Nardini, Forsberg, Hanson, Chlehrcb <br />tp.121V, <br />JW. 16 1984 <br />CITY OF <br />LITTLE CANADA <br />
