z � <br /> Mike Mornson <br /> Page 2 <br /> April 20, 1998 <br /> - Silver Lake Road—The next stretch of sidewalk surveyed runs <br /> north/south on the west side of Silver Lake Road from 37`h Avenue to St. <br /> Anthony Boulevard. One the east side of Silver Lake Road, the sidewalk <br /> runs from Hilldale Avenue to 29`h Avenue. The overall condition is good <br /> considering that it is asphalt and was constructed in or about 1972. The <br /> reason this has held up is due to continual maintenance that has been <br /> performed by the Public Works Department. <br /> St. Anthony Boulevard—This section of sidewalk runs east/west from <br /> Stinson Boulevard to Silver Lake Road on both sides of the street and also <br /> from Highway 88 to Ridgeway Parkway. The condition of both these <br /> sections of sidewalk is poor. The sidewalk section that runs from Stinson <br /> Boulevard to Silver Lake Road is in the worst condition overall,primarily <br /> do to the age of the sidewalk. The Public Works Department has replaced <br /> many of the sidewalk panels and continues to patch areas with blacktop to <br /> prevent trip hazards. This section of sidewalk on both sides of St. <br /> Anthony Boulevard is in very poor condition and is in need of replacement <br /> It is my recommendation at this time that we use MSA funding to reconstruct and <br /> preserve the few sidewalks that we presently have and focus on using future MSA <br /> moneys to construct new sidewalks in areas throughout the City where needed. <br /> I am currently working on a five year sidewalk improvement plan for the entire City. My <br /> intention is to focus on incorporating additional sidewalk improvements into both county <br /> and MSA projects, as funding becomes available. This would primarily be in areas <br /> where currently sidewalks do not exist. <br />
