Carley & ~9ssociates, dated December 18th, Avenue Imp. signed by Vernon L. Ljungren was read. Letter stated: County & water main has funds to improve Larpenteur and plan to start work next Spring. Project will start about ?_00' west of Snelling and continue to the `Nest County Line. They anticipate constructing a "City Type" section west to approximately the east edge of the University property lying north of Larpenteur. From that point west, they plan a modified "City Section" consisting of 4 concrete driving lanes with a media strip, a 9' bituminous shoulder on each side and a shallow ditch for drainage. They are considering constructing storm sewer under the "City Type" section to discharge into the draw immediately west of the Village Hall. They do not contemplate storm sewer under the "?vodified City Type" section. City of St. Paul cannot justify water main along Larpenteur as part of their system. Work would have to be done by the Village of Falcon Heights. Ljungren recommends water main installation as far west as the University property. It is the opinion of the Council and Nick Christensen that this water main should be insta]1ed at least to the University Property this Spring because of the proposed apartment project. ~~tii
