COUNCIL WORK SESSION
July 14, 1986
Acting Mayor Reinert called to order the work session of the Lino
Lakes City Council for the purpose of discussing the MSA Road Plan
for the City. Present: Marier, Bisel, Bohjanen. Absent: Mayor
Benson. Also present were Randy Schumacher, City Administrator;
and Bob Toddie and Ron Stallberg from TKDA; Marilyn Anderson, Clerk;
Shar Foster, Secretary.
Mr. Schumacher explained how the City obtains state aid funds for
roads, stating also that the City must have a plan for how the funds
are to be used.
Mr. Toddie explained the present MSA plan as it was established in
August, 1985 - where the state aid roads are and how much money is
now available. He showed a map to the Council stating that the City
can take 20% of the road miles in Lino Lakes and designate that
portion as state aid roads (which would be approximately 13 miles
in the state aid system.)
Mr. Schumacher also mentioned to the Council that he has applied
for flooding relief funds and if these funds are received the funds
could work together with MSA funds for improvements.
Mr. Marier stated that the main change which the Council wants to
make to the MSA plan is the addition of improvement of West Shadow
Lake Drive in light of the recent flooding problems experienced
and that in viewing the present plan and the surplus funds within
MSA he could see adding the West Shadow Lake Drive project and not
having to delete any of the present projects on the plan. He
suggested that a motion be made during this evening's regular Council
meeting to add the West Shadow Lake Drive project (without changing
the time schedule for the Fourth Avenue project) to be completed
simultaneously with the Fourth Avenue project and move the later
projects further into the future.
Mr. Bisel asked whether consideration would be given to future
possible utilities when the West Shadow Lake Drive project is done.
Mr. Toddie said this would be addressed in the feasibility report
which will be completed before beginning the project. Mr. Schumacher
reminded the Council that the West Shadow Lake Drive project would
not be in the urban service district as it currently is outlined,
however a request is in to Metro Council to enlarge the urban service
district which could make the West Shadow Lake Drive area in the
urban service district should the request be accepted.
Mr. Bohjanen suggested that future work sessions which should only
take 30 minutes or less (such as this evening's subject) should be
scheduled for 6:30 P.M. rather than 6:00 P.M.
Mr. Marier moved to adjourn the work session at 6:40 P.M. Mr.
Bohjanen seconded the motion which carried unanimously.
These minutes considered and approved by Council on July 28, 1986.
Marilyn G. Anderson, City Clerk
