\tiTl�Spj. - <br /> Do� 9y Minnesota Department of Transportation <br /> p Metropolitan District <br /> OF AQ 1500 West County Road B-2 <br /> Roseville, MN 55113 <br /> November 29, 2010 <br /> Mayor Stan Harpstead - <br /> City of Arden Hills <br /> 1245 West Highway 96 <br /> Arden Hills, MN 55112 <br /> RE: Conditions for Municipal Consent of 1-6941TH 51 Layout <br /> Dear Mayor Harpstead: <br /> I am responding to the city of Arden Hills' letter of October 27, 2010, concerning the Arden Hills <br /> City Council resolution disapproving the final layout for the 1-694 at TH 51 and TH 10 project that <br /> was submitted by Mn/DOT. In that letter, Arden Hills denied Municipal Consent with 14 conditions. <br /> Mn/DOT intends to continue working with you and Arden Hills city staff to at least narrow our <br /> differences and reach agreement on many issues. In doing so, I am going to address the 14 <br /> conditions to initiate the negotiation process. <br /> Conditions from Arden Hills- <br /> 1 — The City requests that the revised traffic data outlined in the MnDO T letter dated September <br /> 14, 2010 be added to the approved layout. <br /> Mn/DOT responselstatement—Mn/DOT has added the revised traffic data requested. Mn/DOT <br /> sees this condition as being met. <br /> 2— The City requests that MnDOT show the beginning and ending points of the possible noise wall <br /> on the proposed layout MnDOT has estimated the construction cost at$1,525,000 with MnDOT <br /> funding$1,050,000 and the City funding$475,000. The City requests that MnDOT commit to <br /> paying any construction cost over the estimated$1,525,000. In the event that the construction_ <br /> cost is less than estimated the City requests that their share be prorated. <br /> MnIDOT response- MnIDOT has shown the possible noise wall on our final layout. The funding <br /> of the noise wall can be established as a lump sum agreement where the city pays $475,000 <br /> towards the design and construction of the noise wail, or Mn/DOT and Arden Hills could agree to <br /> use a"Schedule I"breakdown of costs for the noise wall. Arden Hills would then be responsible for <br /> An Equal Opportunity Employer <br /> �"e' o,_ � -.��r � ,t-` Sp;, <br /> -�J' r n� �� <br /> r�� hz�r' � _ �'"��'r3 4 � • • r�yti � 3c..5 �� f�_N <br />
