Mounds View City Council August 23, 1999 <br /> Regular Meeting Page 8 <br /> Mayor Coughlin informed City Attorney Long that the Council has requested discussion of the <br /> name change and the possible redevelopment of County 10 in the future. He stated there had <br /> been considerable difficulty in giving directions to people in light of the new signage. <br /> City Administrator Whiting stated one of the projects he had undertaken was to discuss the old <br /> Highway 10 with the City Administrator from Spring Lake Park and the City Manager from <br /> Blaine, and inquire if they had noticed any changes in regard to traffic levels on that road. He <br /> stated that some business owners and residents had commented in this regard, and had not <br /> noticed anything in particular. He added they did not appear to consider Highway 10 to be one <br /> of the main focuses of transportation within their community. He advised, therefore, if there <br /> was interest in this regard in Mounds View, it should be brought forward and discussed. He <br /> explained that if anything were to happen, he would think they would have to work on the issue, <br /> which may go beyond a name change. He stated the City's stretch of Highway 10 through the <br /> community is not the primary focus of the I-35W Corridor Coalition, however, it may be for the <br /> Council, Planning Commission and the residents, and it would be helpful to determine what <br /> options and interests the people have. <br /> Mayor Coughlin noted that at the last Council meeting, they had planned to set up a meeting for <br /> discussion, and a focus group comprised of interested parties to address these issues, before the <br /> matter is further underway. <br /> No further reports were considered. <br /> 7.
