It was felt that this would allow staff to meet with MnDOT regarding the signalized intersection. 9 10 Ms.Olson wondered if the Council has the authority to alter the plans should MnDOT formally deny a 11 signalized intersection and the developer wish to pursue alternatives. Mayor McCarty stated that this could 12 be done at the Public Hearing. 13 14 David Jahnke complimented the developer on his involvement with the neighborhood during the planning 15 process. He noted that many of the people present at the Public Hearing did not attend informational 16 meetings that were set up between the developer and the residents. 17 18 Barb Haake noted that any changes to the plan would need to be re-visited by the Rice Creek Watershed 19 District. 20 21 Sara Weeks,2653 Scottland Court,noted that a curb cut onto Long Lake Road or County Road H-2 would 22 provide a better flow of traffic. 23 24 With no further comments,Mayor McCarty closed the Public Hearing at 11:10 p.m. 25 26 MOTION/SECOND: Quick/Koopmeiners to Approve Resolution No. 5226,a Resolution Approving a 27 Development Stage Review Plan for the Anthony Properties Management/O'Neil PUD at 2430 Highway 28 10,Approve Resolution No.5229,A Resolution Approving a Wetland Buffer Permit at 2430 Highway 10 29 and to Approve Resolution No. 5230 Concerning Access to Anthony Properties Management/O'Neil PUD 30 at 2430 Highway 10. 31 32 Council member Stigney stated he felt the Council should consider the concerns raised by the residents. 33 Residents have stated their opposition to paying the$442,000 share to realign the road and install a signal. 34 It was his understanding that the developer would solve the traffic problem.
