BOLTON & MENK, INC. <br /> K. Proposed driveway connection between Baskets By Design and Staples. <br /> L. Parking lot in front of the old Carol's Furniture store. <br /> M. 50' wide corridor along west property line of old Holiday Inn site. <br /> N. Proposed sidewalk corridor along east property line of old Holiday Inn site. <br /> O. Parking lot in front of Red Cross Center <br /> P. Proposed sidewalk corridor along the west side of Pine Tree Drive from C.R.E to the Hunters <br /> Park Condominiums driveway <br /> Any relevant property or right of way lines within the survey areas will be illustrated via available GIS <br /> parcel line work. Based on existing snow cover conditions,our proposal includes provisions for <br /> shoveling and clearing as necessary to complete this work. <br /> FEASIBILITY STUDY <br /> PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING <br /> Using the topographic survey obtained,Bolton&Menk will complete preliminary engineering and design <br /> of the Phase I concepts. The concepts will be refined to reflect standard roadway design geometrics. <br /> More exact dimensioning of the improvements will be completed in order to verify lane widths along the <br /> corridor,turning radii at intersections and driveway entrances,and maneuverability within modified <br /> parking lots. New sidewalk extensions will be dimensioned,as will adjacent boulevard areas between the <br /> roadway and new walks. Boulevard grades adjacent to the new walks will also be evaluated for any <br /> special grading needs such as retaining walls. Proposed modifications to the three existing signalized <br /> intersections along the corridor(Connelly,Pine Tree Drive,and Lexington)will be detailed to illustrate <br /> new lane configurations,pedestrian crossings and signal system modifications. Communication and <br /> design development will be shared with Ramsey County throughout the preliminary engineering process. <br /> More formal meetings with the County are reflected in the City Meetings task,below. <br /> PROPERTY OWNER MEETINGS <br /> In conjunction with the preliminary design of the Phase I improvements,we will meet with property <br /> owners that are directly affected by the proposed improvements(i.e.,those with proposed driveway <br /> access changes,or those from which additional easement or ROW is anticipated to be required). These <br /> properties are anticipated to include: Shell Station,W.J.Anderson Dentist,Flaherty's Arden Bowl,Pot- <br /> O-Gold Bingo,Baskets By Design, Staples,old Carol's Furniture,Allegra Printing,Fourth Dimension, <br /> old Holiday Inn,Northpark,Red Cross Center,and Arden Plaza(Wellington). The purpose of these <br /> meetings will be to discuss the proposed improvements as they affect each property,and to receive <br /> additional input from the property owners for consideration during design. Up to thirteen(13)meetings <br /> are included in this proposal. <br /> COST ESTIMATING AND FINANCING <br /> Upon completion of the preliminary design work,new cost estimates for the proposed improvements will <br /> be prepared. This information will be shared and discussed with the City and County staff for the purpose <br /> of applying cost share criteria for the improvements. Finally,special assessment amounts will be <br /> determined for the project,using the City's current assessment policies as the initial basis. <br /> County Road E Feasibility Study <br /> City of Arden Hills, Minnesota Page 2 <br />
