AGENDA ITEM 7D
STAFF ORIGINATOR: John Powell, City Engineer
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: April 23, 2001
TOPIC: Resolution No. 01 -60, Initiate Modification of the Ramp from Lake Drive
to Northbound I -35W
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 Vote Required
BACKGROUND:
When The Village Master Plan was initially developed, it showed a single access into
the site along the Town Center Parkway alignment. Since that time interest has grown
regarding a second access to the site, possibly in conjunction with the ramp from Lake
Drive to northbound I -35W. This interest is clarified in the recent correspondence I've
received from Calthorpe Associates and the YMCA. The Minnesota Department of
Transportation has commented that this combination ramp is inconsistent with their
policy.
To formally initiate the modification of this ramp, the City will need to submit a Request
for FHWA Access. Approval or Modification. As the City will be the initiating agency, we
will be responsible for preparing the technical analysis and documentation.
• To direct staff to begin this process, Resolution No. 01 -60 has been prepared and
attached.
OPTIONS:
1. Adopt Resolution Number 01 -60.
2. Not adopt Resolution No. 01 -60.
3. Return to staff for further review.
RECOMMENDATION:
Option No. 1 - Staff recommends adoption of Resolution Number 01 -60.
