Presentation of Old Highway 8 Reconstruction Plans and Consideration of Resolutions 5033 Plan Approval,5034 Cooperative Agreement and 5035 Parking Restrictions. Ms.Kathy Jaschke,the Ramsey County design engineer for the Old Highway 8 reconstruction project was present and provided the public with a brief overview and presentation of the project. She explained that Old Highway 8 will be realigned through county open space and lined up with the Mermaid parking lot to get away from the Highway 10 intersection. A storm sewer will be added and a pond will be built. The roadway will be 52 feet wide with four lanes for the entire length. A bike path will run along the West side for the entire length of the project. Ms.Trude stated she has had several residents ask whether there will be a traffic signal light at the intersection. Ms.Jaschke stated it is not warranted at this time,however there may be in the future when work is proposed for Highway 10. She noted that County Road H improvements are also in the County's capital improvement program for 1999 or 2000 and this matter could be reconsidered at that time also.
