COUNCIL MINUTES JULY 12, 2004 APPROVED 145 for the analysis and major considerations, such as Peltier Lake. He noted they looked at several •146 options based on the Metropolitan Council's full build out numbers of 2030, with the focus of the 147 study being CSAH 14. 148 149 Mr. Dvorak reviewed the three segments that should be focused on now, discussing speeds and traffic 150 volumes. He talked about access points, noting in segment two there are 71 access points, causing 151 them to propose a three -lane road with a center left turn lane. He continued by noting in segment 152 three they are proposing a four -lane divided road, with shoulders and sidewalks included on all three 153 segments. 154 155 Mr. Dvorak reviewed the timeline that has been completed so far involving public meetings, 156 newsletters and the website, with Phase I wrapping up with the presentation of this preliminary study. 157 He noted Phase II will be the preliminary design phase, with a timeline set to be completed by March 158 1, 2005. He noted this phase will include the preliminary design and the environmental document. 159 160 Mr. Dvorak stated they will continue the public information effort, and believe property acquisition 161 could start in the fall or late 2005, with approvals from governing agencies and acquisitions 162 continuing into early 2006. He indicated the project will take at least one construction season; maybe 163 longer. He advised the preliminary design will be done on the existing roadway, however they do 164 recommend the other sections continue to be studied noting changes will eventually have to be made. 165 166 Mr. Dvorak explained the difference in the traffic numbers, noting some include a northerly bypass, 167 and based on their study, the need is there to relieve some of the traffic from downtown Centerville. 168 He indicated another difference in the numbers is looking at full build out of the various cities using 1.169 their land use plans to 2020, which is higher than the Metropolitan Council's 2030 plan, which does 170 not take into consideration some of the commercial and industrial land uses. 171 172 Councilmember Carlson noted she is struggling with the northerly bypass, although she can see the 173 advantages to it. She indicated it is not in Lino Lake's Comprehensive Plan or in their Five -Year 174 Financial Plan. She stated she does not like to give the impression she is committing to something 175 she is not yet committing to do. 176 177 Mr. Dvorak reiterated the northern bypass would be quite some time off; they are only recommending 178 it be looked at in future plans, as it would be in the best interest of both Lino Lakes and Centerville. 179 180 Councilmember Dahl asked if Centerville has approved the report as of yet. Mr. Dvorak indicated 181 Centerville's work session on Wednesday will be the first chance they have to review it, and the 182 Anoka Board will be taking action at the end of the month. 183 184 Kate Garwood noted her job is long-range planning. She indicated while they usually look more at a 185 neighborhood scale, with all the lakes and wetlands in this area they need to look at a larger scale to 186 plan for people and the success of future businesses. 187 188 Councilmember Stoltz moved to adopt Resolution No. 04-100 adopting the County State Aid 189 Highway 14 I -35W to I -35E Alternative Analysis Study. Councilmember Dahl seconded the motion. 190 191 Councilmember Carlson clarified her personal statement that Comprehensive Plan changes should .192 start with the people rather than piecemeal. She verified the Council is not making a commitment to 4
