DISCUSSION The City has requested to revoke Rondeau Lake Road/84 th Street, Birch Street/21 st Avenue, Robinson Avenue and parts of West Shadow Lake Drive and Holly Drive. These segments are non-existing routes or low volume existing segments that are tied to non -existing routes. The non-existing segments will generate the least amount of dol lars for the City under the new Needs calculation system if they remain on the system. These routes were included previously for system continuity per the State Aid rules and also because they maximiz ed the dollars for the generated for the City due to the fact that they claimed unused mileage . The designation of Baldwin Lake Road, Woodridge Lane, Hawthorn Road/Painted Turtle Road, Langer Lane, Stella Lane, Timberwolf Road, Sherman Lake Road, Lakeview Drive, Elmcrest Avenue, Century Trail, Lois Lane, Kelly Street, and the extension of Tart Lake Road will fulfill the State Aid requirements of system continuity and designates the mileage to existing segments with higher traffic volumes . The designation of Elmcrest Avenue is a joint designation with the City of Hugo due to the common boundary at the City limits. Hugo performed a traffic count on this route and determined that this is a highly traveled route. The traffic is namely due to destinations wit hin Hugo but the City of Lino Lakes will still benefit from a dollar generation standpoint to share in this designation with Hugo. These revisions will result in the City maximizing its available designation mileage which will in turn maximize the State Aid Needs dollars that are allocated to the City.
