Page 2 October 1, 1979
With regards to upgrade Highway 10 the access
points would be at the proposed interchanges
and /or on present through streets. The
access points for relocated Highway 10 would
be at the proposed entry ramp or interchange.
There would no other access points on new
Highway 10 unless frontage roads were created
within the City. Mr. Robinson reminded the
City Council that upgraded Highway 10 would
need additional 120 feet of right -of -way
or approximately 60 feet on either side of the
median to improve or upgrade Highway 10.
Mr. Robinson further noted that due to the
amount of citizen opposition that the MnDOT
has received that they are preparing plans
for the design for upgraded Highway 10. He
further stated that the Department was
desirous of reaching a resolution on this
Highway project so that funding could be
secured. To that end they hope to have the
upgraded Highway 10 plan completed by the
end of November or the first of December.
They would then coordinate with the respected
municipalities to have additional public
hearings or meetings to inform the public
and be able to show them the plans of upgraded
and relocated Highway 10. Mr. Nelson noted
to the City Council that the relationship
between MnDOT and the City was excellent and
that there has been some meetings with them
to iron out any problems of communication.
Tom Fuller, 8054 Eastwood, wondered if it
was possible to have two meetings on Highway 10.
One for the north half of the City and the
other for the south half of the City. The
purpose of it would be to review plans on
relocated Highway 10. The second would be
to compare relocated with upgraded Highway
10. He thought this may draw 100 or so
people. Mr. Robinson noted that a decision
on the plans now appear to be January or
February. Robinson further stated that the
reason for this decision was to insure the
location not the design of the road or
interchanges.
Sharon Nelson asked Mr. Robinson why the plans
showed that Red Oak Drive was labeled Airport
Road.
Robinson responded to the question raised
about Airport Road by stating that the
Department had inadvertently labeled the
interchange as Airport Road, since it was
referred that way by Blaine.
