• <br />• <br />• <br />WS — Item 2 <br />WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT <br />Work Session Item 2 <br />Date: February 6, 2012 <br />To: City Council <br />From: Michael Grochala <br />Re: Signal Project Update <br />Background <br />Staff is continuing to work with TKDA and Anoka County on the Lake /Main and <br />Birch/Ware signal improvement projects. The project design is nearing completion and <br />staff is currently reviewing the Joint Powers Agreement. Staff has scheduled a public <br />open house Wednesday, February 8, 2012 from 4:30. The improvements are likely to be <br />underway by fall of 2012 and completed in early 2013. <br />Right of way acquisition is now the primary activity dictating the project timeline. The <br />county is proceeding with initial inquires regarding land acquisition. There are <br />approximately 4 parcels on the Lake /Main project and 3 parcels on the Birch/Ware <br />project affected by the improvements. The majority of impacts are minor strip <br />acquisitions and temporary easements. One property is proposed to be acquired in its <br />entirety to address stormwater management improvements. <br />Representatives from Anoka County will be present at the meeting to address questions. <br />Requested Council Direction <br />No action required. <br />
