Mounds View City Council January 22, 2001 <br />Regular Meeting Page 1S <br />Mayor Sonterre stated he believed the request for position descriptions to be a good idea that <br />should not be very time consuming for Staff. <br />Council Member Thomas requested the job descriptions be presented to each commission and <br />committee for approval and then to Council. <br />Council Member Stigney stated he would like to see the job descriptions remain vague. <br />Council Member Marty directed Staff to draft job descriptions for each commission and <br />committee within the City to be presented to each commission and committee for approval and <br />then to Council. <br />F. Update on Improvements and Modifications to County Highway 10 <br />Council Member Marty requested an update on the County Highway 10 redevelopment issue. <br />Community Development Director Ericson indicated Requests for Proposals have been sent to 50 <br />area firms to propose a plan for dealing with design, transportation and planning issues for <br />County Highway 10. A few firms have requested further information which Staff has provided. <br />The deadline to submit a Request for Proposal is February 16, 2001 and Staff should be able to <br />provide information to Council by the end of that week. <br />Council passed a resolution that was forwarded to Ramey County which included a specific <br />request to lower the speed limit on County Highway 10. MNDOT has been asked to conduct a <br />speed study and Staff is unsure how long that process takes. The other issues dealt with the <br />timing of pedestrian crosswalks and signage of those crosswalks. The Ramsey County traffic <br />engineer is working on those issues and Staff hopes to see improvements take place shortly. <br />Staff anticipates changes in the immediate future but is not sure when something definite will <br />happen. <br />Council Member Marty asked Community Development Director Ericson to provide another <br />report on the County Highway 10 redevelopment at the second Council meeting in February. <br />Community Development Director Ericson indicated he will inform Council prior to the council <br />meeting in February if he receives any information on the issue as well as provide an update at <br />the second Council meeting in February. <br />Council Member Marty thanked Community Development Director Ericson for the update. <br />Mayor Sonterre noted the City Council/City Staff retreat has been cancelled and residents will be <br />informed of the rescheduled date as soon as that date is available. <br />11.
