He referred to a preliminary layout of <br />24 the improvements to CSAH 14 within the City of Lino Lakes. He stated MnDOT has <br />25 come up with a preliminary plan for the interchange. He indicated he would like to <br />26 discuss the access issues on 21' Avenue. The plan shows a median with no turn lanes <br />27 that may cause problems to business owners in that area. He noted the reason for the <br />28 median is for safety issues due to the close proximity of the interchange area. The plan <br />29 currently shows a trail on one side and sidewalk on the other side of CSAH 14. He <br />30 recommended the City look at some type of northern loop for another connection to that <br />31 area. <br />32 <br />33 Community Development Director Grochala noted the CSAH 14 project does not include <br />34 the interchange improvements. It is anticipated improvements will be made to the <br />35 interchange but that is not part of this project. <br />36 <br />37 Mr. Dvorak noted he is not aware of any funds that have been committed to the <br />38 interchange improvements. <br />39 <br />40 Mr. Dvorak advised SRF is meeting with the City of Centerville next week to review the <br />41 preliminary plan. The road issues have been worked out through the County Park. He <br />42 stated he believes the final plans will be completed in March 2004. It is anticipated that <br />43 construction would begin on the project in the spring of 2006. <br />44 <br />45 Mr. Dvorak noted the next public meeting in Lino Lakes is scheduled on October 26, <br />46 2004, 5:00 — 7:00 p.m., at Chomonix Golf Course. <br />47 <br />
