<br /> 178 E 9TH STREET | SUITE 200 | SAINT PAUL, MN | 55101 | 651.286.8450 | WSBENG.COM August 11, 2021 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />City of Hugo <br />14669 Fitzgerald Avenue North <br />Hugo, MN 55038 <br /> <br />Re: No Parking Resolution along Generation Avenue North <br /> City of Hugo, MN <br /> <br />Dear Mayor and Council, <br /> <br />Staff has recently received concerns from residents along Generation Avenue North between <br />Oneka Lake Boulevard North and 150th Street North that the road is too narrow to allow for <br />parking on both sides of the roadway while still allowing traffic in both directions. Emergency <br />access and pedestrian concerns were also raised.. Generation Avenue is currently 30 feet wide <br />as measured from back-of-curb to back-of-curb. Based on MnDOT design guidelines for <br />roadways with on street parking, the existing road width would allow for parking on one side of <br />the road while still maintaining traffic in both directions. <br /> <br />Staff recommends approval of the resolution restricting parking along the east side of Generation <br />Avenue North from Oneka Lake Boulevard North to 150th Street as the existing pavement widths <br />do not provide adequate width for parking on both sides of the street. <br /> <br />If you have any questions or items you wish to discuss, you can contact me at 651-286-8463. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />WSB <br /> <br /> <br />Mark Erichson, PE <br />City Engineer <br /> <br />Attachment <br /> <br />cc: Bryan Bear, City Administrator, City of Hugo <br />Scott Anderson, Public Works Director, City of Hugo <br />Liz Finnegan, Senior Engineering Technician, City of Hugo
