Mounds View City Council April 9, 1990 <br />Regular Meeting Page Seven <br />-------------------------------------------------------------------------- <br />. She stated everyone is concerned with increased <br />traffic in all their areas, and she does not feel <br />keeping the airport road access will keep traffic <br />the way it is. She would prefer to leave the <br />airport road access out of the plan. <br />Pat Novak, of Knollwood Drive, stated a study is <br />still a forecast, is expensive and is not a definite <br />statement of what will happen. He stated a modified <br />310 gives some access, and streets could be blocked <br />off in the future if necessary. He recommended <br />access be put in at the airport road now, as it <br />would be more cost efficient. <br />Marilyn Fochell questioned if it is an option to <br />block the road off in the future if it is a <br />problem. <br />Mayor Hankner stated that under the provisions of an <br />intergovernmental agreement with Blaine, that would <br />be included. However, conditions change and people <br />change, and someone would have to watch it. <br />She also questioned how long it would take to have a <br />traffic study done on 3/6 modified. <br />Mr. Minetor explained a thorough study would take <br />six weeks, possibly longer, and he reviewed what <br />considerations would have to be made. <br />Councilmember Quick stated they need something to <br />be able to compare or measure against, and he would <br />support a traffic study. <br />Councilmember Wuori stated she wouldn't have a pro- <br />blem with it if there was adequate time to get a <br />complete look at it. <br />Jim Jorrisen, of Knollwood Drive, stated ~t ~s a <br />good idea to try and predict what the traffic <br />flow will be in the future. He added he feels stop <br />signs would be a good deterent to through traffic. <br />John Martineau, 8401. Fairchild, stated he feels <br />there has been a lack of willingness to compromise, <br />and he agrees they need to establish a baseline of <br />traffic now, and they should also consider removing <br />MSA money from Red Oak Drive as it could be a through <br />route. <br />Rick Shaffer, of Knollwood Drive, stated he feels a <br />traffic study should be done, and they need to <br />• address access to the north. <br />
