WHEREAS, the City of St. Anthony has planned the improvement of Silver Lane, State Aid Route No. 161-
108-002 from station 35+89.12 (Silver Lake Road) to station 60+00.00 (16`h Avenue SW) in
the Cities of New Brighton and St. Anthony in Ramsey County,Minnesota; and,
WHEREAS, the City of St. Antony will be expending municipal state aid funds on the improvements of this
Street; and,
WHEREAS, this project will not be eligible for municipal state aid funds unless it is constructed to urban state
aid standards for a low speed urban horizontal curve design, 30 mph design speed or unless a
variance is granted;and,
WHEREAS, this improvement does not provide adequate road right-of-way to provide for the horizontal
alignment requirement as outlined on Fig. A(3) 5-892.211 of the State Aid Manual; and approval
of the proposed construction as a Municipal State Aid Street project must therefore receive a
variance from the Minnesota Rules for State Aid Operations Chapter 8820.
NOW,THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED,by the City Council of the City of St. Anthony:
1) The request for a variance to Minnesota Rule 8820.9936 is authorized,to allow a 20 mph horizontal curve in

agrees to defend at its sole cost and expense any action or proceeding begun for asserting any claim of
whatever character arising as a result of granting of the variance.
