He explained that the purpose of the joint meeting was to discuss <br /> upgrading 21 st Avenue and the Lino Lakes/Centerville water interconnection. <br /> Mr. March explained that the condition of 21st Avenue is a concern to adjacent <br /> businesses. They have requested a"quick fix" for this situation. This concern plus the <br /> need for both cities to work together to construct and maintain the street prompted the <br /> request for a joint meeting. <br /> Mr. March explained that he was happy to see the new convenience store at the corner of <br /> I-35E and Main Street. This new business will draw commercial interest for both the City <br /> of Lino Lakes and the City of Centerville. He suggested that a joint powers agreement for <br /> construction and maintenance of 21 st Avenue be completed as soon as possible and <br /> construction started immediately so that it can be completed before winter. He also noted <br /> the need for storm sewers in that area. <br /> Mr. Powell explained that the Lino Lakes City Council has requested preparation and has <br /> received a feasibility report. This report outlines street, curb and gutter and storm sewer <br /> installation to service the entire corridor. Currently a temporary situation is under <br /> construction. The street has been graded, the sub-base has been completed and <br /> blacktopping is expected to begin tomorrow. Storm drainage has been routed so that the <br /> area that previously drained into Centerville will continue to drain to Centerville and the <br /> area that previously drained into Lino Lakes will continue to drain into Lino Lakes into a <br /> ponding area. Mr. Ahrens continued the explanation of the storm sewer plan. Mr. Powell <br /> suggested that both cities share in the cost of providing for storm drainage. <br /> PAGE 1 <br />
