V'. 5 <br />MEMORANDUM <br />Memo To :Mayor and Council Members <br />From :Ric Minetor, City Engineer/Director of Public Works <br />Date :February 28, 1990 <br />Subject :Proposed X-Walk on Silver Lake Road at Woodcrest Park <br />I have received a letter from Dan Solar of Ramsey County <br />confirming their willingness to stripe a cross -walk on Silver <br />Lake Road for Woodcrest Park. Mr. Solar indicated that they would <br />paint the cross -walk during this summer. The slight skew <br />necessary due to the culverts under Silver Lake Road is <br />acceptable to the County. They are requesting plans for the <br />pathway adjacent to Silver Lake Road for review prior to this <br />work. <br />Council -Member Quick requested information regarding the <br />possibility of placing culverts in Spring Creek and providing the <br />cross -walk at the west Woodcrest Drive intersection. This would <br />require 2 - 36 inch diameter culverts. Plans would need to be <br />prepared and submitted to Rice Creek Watershed District for <br />approval. I have estimated the cost of this alternative to be <br />$5,000 to $7,500. <br />I believe the latter alternative is preferable to the mid -block <br />crossing originally discussed, if funds are available. I have <br />contacted Elaine Graham and she indicated she would attend the <br />March 5th meeting. <br />I am requesting Council direction on the alternate to pursue. <br />
