• COUNCIL MINUTES DECEMBER 9, 1996 the segment of Trunk Highway 49 from Lilac Street to the Correctional Facility entrance on the City's Municipal State Aid System. Council Member Lyden moved to adopt Resolution No. 96 - 154. Council Member Kuether seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Resolution No. 96 - 154 can be found at the end of these minutes. Consider Resolution No. 96 - 155, Concurring with Anoka County Designation of County State Aid Highway, Highway 49, Ash Street to Fourth Avenue - Mr. Ahrens explained that recently the Anoka County Board accepted Trunk Highway 49 (from Ash Street to the intersection of Lilac and Fourth Avenue) from the State and designated the road as a County State Aid Highway (CSAH). The portion of Highway 49 from Ash Street to the new interchange at Lake Drive and Highway 49 will be designated as (CSAH) No. 49 and the section of highway from the new interchange to Lilac Street and Lake Drive will be designated as (CSAH) No. 23. The roadway from Lilac Street and Lake Drive west to Lilac Street and Fourth Avenue will be designated as CSAH No. 153. (This action will result in designating all of Lilac Street from Lake Drive to Sunset Road as CSAH No. 153) A supporting resolution from the City of Lino Lakes is required to designate Trunk Highway 49 as a County State Aid Highway. Council Member Kuether noted that a portion of Lilac Street west of Fourth Avenue is designated County Road No. 153. She asked if this is a new designation. Mr. Ahrens explained that currently the portion of Lilac Street from Fourth Avenue to Sunset Road is designated as a County Road No. 153. The changes in designation will allow the County to designate the mileage over their normal CSAH cap. Council Member Kuether asked when a sign will be placed on Lake Drive directing traffic to Apollo Drive. Mr. Ahrens said that he has directed Mr. DeWolfe to get this sign in place. Council Member Bergeson asked Mr. Ahrens what the difference is between MSA and CSAH. Mr. Ahrens explained that gas tax money designated as state aid goes into one big "pot". The State divides the dollars into various "pots". One "pot" is for municipalities (MSA) over 5,000 in populations and another "pot" is for counties (CSAH). The CSAH funds can be used for road reconstruction rather than taking the reconstruction dollars out of tax dollars. Council Member Kuether moved to adopt Resolution No. 96 - 155. Council Member Lyden seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Resolution No. 96 - 155 can be found at the end of these minutes. OLD BUSINESS PAGE 3
