The Clearwater Creek Business Center plat is located south of Main Street between 35E and 21 st Avenue, with 21 st Avenue being the road serving the plat. 21 st Avenue lies over the corporate boundary between Lino Lakes and Centerville. One of the main issues is improvement of 21 st Avenue, and cost-sharing and maintenance responsibilities between Lino Lakes and Centerville must be determined. Mr. Ahrens stated that the proposed Agreement has been reviewed by the City Attorney,the City's engineering consultant, and Staff. The Agreement is currently under review by Centerville officials, discussion having taken place at a January 21 work session and possible action by January 28.
