Ramsey County will be utilizing State Aid Funds for this project under S.A.P. 62- <br /> 601-09 (Ramsey County CSAH 1) <br /> 2. Ramsey County will participate in 25 % of the signal costs, 0% in the EVP system <br /> and 50% of the geometric costs including pavement markings and signing. <br /> • . 3. Ramsey County will not participate in EVP costs. <br /> 4. All items the county participates in must be eligible for 100% State aid funds. <br /> Ramsey County will not have any county funds available for this project. <br /> 5. The plans should include grouping pay items under a separate column in the <br /> quantities statement for Ramsey County participation <br /> 6. In accordance with Ramsey County policy the City of Mounds View is required to <br /> participate in the cost of this signal system based on the entering leg on the south. <br /> 7. The lane configuration shown in the plans appears to be as we discussed and looks <br /> good. <br /> 8. Increasing the radius in the south east corner is more appealing to resolve the right <br /> turn issue for trucks north to east bound from Sysco's Entrance. <br /> 9. Not sure the signal system design should incorporate future widening. Its been our <br /> experience that by the time this construction occurs the signal system needs total <br /> replacement. Also, lane configuration may be different if any widening takes place <br /> in the future. <br /> 10.Any signal equipment installed outside the right of way will require an easement to <br /> install and maintain the equipment. (Sysco Entrance) <br /> 11.Pedestrian movements should be included on all legs of the intersection. <br /> 12.The overhead type D sign D-2 and D-4 should read County J under 85th Ave NE. <br /> 13.An agreement for maintenance and construction will be required. Anoka County will <br /> perform maintenance. <br /> • A typical section of the inplace roadway has been included for your use.
