Item No. 10C <br />Staff Report No. <br />Meeting Date: 04/08/00 <br />Type of Business: CA <br />WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; <br />CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Mayor and City Council Members <br />From: Rick Jopke, Community Development Director <br />Item Title/Subject: Highway 10 Study Process <br />Date of Report: August 29, 2018 <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br /> <br />On March 13, 2000 the City Council approved a work plan proposed by Springsted to facilitate <br />discussions on the future of County Highway 10 and allocated $5,000 of TIF Pool funds to the study. <br />As staff has worked with Springsted to work out the details on the study and process, we have <br />concluded that changes to the work plan and process originally proposed may be necessary. <br />Additional funds may also be necessary. <br /> <br />The original work plan focused on community discussions to identify issues and priorities that should <br />be addressed. Staff and Springsted have reviewed all the previous studies that have been done on <br />Highway 10 and have concluded that there was considerable community input into the previous <br />studies that seems to have identified most if not all of the issues. It seems that maybe the study should <br />be refocused to build on the previous studies and not to reinvent the wheel. The study could <br />synthesize the issues identified and focus on common elements that have been identified in all the <br />studies. Priorities could then be determined and an action plan developed to address the identified <br />priorities. The action plan would contain items that would be addressed immediately, in the short term <br />and in the long term. A finance plan could also be developed. <br /> <br />Staff is also talking to the Design Center to see what role they could play in helping the City <br />understand and visualize the possibilities for County Highway 10 and what opportunities may be <br />available through the I35W Corridor Coalition. <br /> <br />Representatives from Springsted will be present at the May 8th City Council meeting to discuss this <br />revised process in more detail. The May 10th Steering Committee is also being postponed until the <br />process , work plan, and budget are finalized. <br /> <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />It is recommended that the City Council approve a revised process, work plan, and budget for the <br />Highway 10 Study. <br /> <br />______________________________________ <br />Rick Jopke, Community Development Director <br /> <br /> <br />N:\DATA\GROUPS\COMDEV\SPECPROJ\Sp077.00\05-08-00 City Council Report.doc
