CITY ®F CITY OP COLUMBIX HEIGHTS- <br /> 590 �Oth AvS....,N. E <br /> (612) 788-9221 <br /> SERVICE IS OUR BUSINESS <br /> January 23, 1981 <br /> Mr. James Fornell <br /> City Manager <br /> 3301 Silver Lake Road <br /> Minneapolis , MIS 55418 <br /> Dear Jim: <br /> Re: Salvation Army Property--Storm Drainage <br /> I thought I 'd. take a second to reiterate what I believe should be the <br /> course of action for the City of Columbia Heights with regard to storm <br /> drainage and other improvements affecting Salvation Army property in <br /> the City of St. Anthony. <br /> As Fred and I indicated, Columbia Heights is currently considering a <br /> • project for Stinson Boulevard, from 45th to the City's beach area. We <br /> indicated that the City is considering installation of a storm drainage <br /> system which would correct an ongoing problem with backlot drainage coming <br /> from an area pretty much composed of .land located between Stinson Boulevard, <br /> 45th Avenue and Benjamin Street. At the present time, the storm drainage <br /> crosses Stinson Boulevard and empties onto the Salvation .Army Camp property <br /> east of Stinson Boulevard. <br /> This past year the City received a letter from residents in the area <br /> requesting that the storm drainage problem be corrected. In addition, <br /> some concerns were expressed with -regard to the condition of the exist- <br /> ing roadway. rly intent has been to present this matter at a public hearing <br /> this fa.11 with possible construction in 1982, if the project is approved. <br /> The project would include a storm drainage system, acquiring a right-of- <br /> way, and street reconstruction. <br /> Based upon our conversation Tuesday morning, I will be instructing City <br /> staff to undertake the following: <br /> a) Initiate a -storm drainage study with regard to the <br /> drainage area comprising property located east of <br /> Benjamin, south of 45th and along Stinson Boulevard. <br /> This will include portions of the Salvation Army <br /> Camp property which may drain toward Stinson Boule- <br /> vard. <br /> b) The Public Works Director will have staff design a <br /> roadway for Stinson Boulevard which would be located <br /> within an appropriate right-of-way easement serving <br /> St. Anthony properties , as well as properties located <br /> in Columbia Heights. <br /> Bruce G.
