Mounds View City Council April 9, 1990 Regular Meeting Page Ten Gary Stevenson, of Ardan Avenue, stated the inter- section at the airport interchange would be the only111 controlled intersection. He stated without the interchange he feels it would be a safety hazard on Groveland Road, as more people would be using it. He invited the Council to fulfill what they started before, and use input from the residents to decide on on an alternate that would best satisfy the majority of the residents. He stated he would like to see a resolution for 3/6 modified, with contingencies, and not leav4 it open. He added he hopes to see a decision from the Council tonight. Mr. Benson reviewed the proposed plans for stop signs. Mayor Hankner expressed concern over the competitive- ness of the neighborhoods. She reviewed the condi- tions she felt needed to be included in a resolution. Councilmember Blanchard stated she would agree with the conditions, with the exception of the airport road being left in, as she would rather delete it, have the traffic study show whether it is feasible, and then put it in. Motion/Second: Quick/Wuori to approve Resolution No. 111 3024, approving New Highway 10/610 and Realigning County Road J, as amended, approving base layout #13 and approving alternate 3/6 modified with the extension of the airport road, contingent upon the airport road access staying in the plan unless the traffic study indicates serious problems, with the traffic study to be completed within 90 days; with a decision being made in 1990; using the traffic study as baseline information and setting a trigger point for decisions regarding that access point; alignment of the airport road 3° to the west per the April 9, 1990 drawings; an intergovernmental agreement between Blaine and Mounds View with a stipulation of no truck traffic at the airport road access upon opening, with Mounds View to maintain it and Mounds View would have control over future closing of the access, and Mounds View would control the speed limit and stop signs; and contingent upon a letter of approval from Commissioner Levine accepting and agreeing to the resolution and agreeing to reserve adequate funds for future construc- tion of the airport road extension as determined by the City of Mounds View. 3 ayes 2 nays Motion Carried Councilmembers Paone and Blanchard voted against • the motion.
