This should no longer be a <br /> concern. On November 10, 1995, new rules will be adopted for State Aid Operations. <br /> One of those rule changes will allow the use of Municipal State Aid Construction <br /> Funds for the non-State Aid legs of intersection for signalization. Enclosed is a copy <br /> of these rule changes, highlighting the applicable change. <br /> Also enclosed is a new copy of the proposed Joint Powers Agreement for <br /> consideration by the St. Anthony Council. <br /> The City of Columbia Heights has contracted with BRW, Inc. for design and <br /> construction management services for the addition of Emergency Pre-Emption to our <br /> signalized intersections. We will also be utilizing BRW for design of the signalization <br /> at 39th Avenue and Stinson Blvd. <br /> I also request that you contact the Ramsey County Traffic Engineer with regard to <br /> maintaining this proposed signal. If an arrangement on this can be worked out with <br /> Ramsey County, we will utilize their standards for the signal hardware. <br /> • <br /> "SERVICE IS OUR BUSINESS" EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER - <br />
