CITY OF ARDEN HILLS 4364 WEST ROUND LAKE ROAD P ARDEN HILLS, MN 55112-5794 May 30, 2000 Dan Soler, Traffic Engineer Ramsey County Public Works Department 50 West Kellogg Blvd., Suite 910 St. Paul, MN 55102 Dear Dan: On September 13, 1999, you sent to Terry Post, at that time the Interim City Administrator for the City of Arden Hills, a letter asking for a resolution to be passed by the City of Arden Hills regarding "no parking' on County Road 1. In that letter you state that, in order to receive state approval of the project, the City should adopt the resolution as soon as possible. I am sorry that it took such a long time to get back to you, but between changes in Administration and other issues,this one fell down the list. At this time, the City of Arden Hills cannot pass the proposed resolution because it is my understanding that we wished to have a Memorandum of Understanding between Ramsey County,the City of Shoreview, and the City of Arden Hills that any potential changes to the intersection of Schutta Road with County Road I would not be considered, nor held to the same funding participation as the signalized intersection at County Road I and the Rice Creek Parkway. This issue has not been in front of the City Council because I have been unable to get Mr. Tolaas and Terry Schwerm, the City Manager of Shoreview, to agree that such a document needs to be written and signed off by both parties. I understand that the County Road I project has been bid. My assumption at this point is that the Ramsey County Board of Commissioners has accepted it. It's also my further assumption that, in order to bid the project; the State of Minnesota had to approve the plans. I hope this catches us up on the status of the"no parking" resolution for County Road I, and can lead to a written document that lays out the future scenario for any signalized intersection at County Road I and Schutta Road in the City of Arden Hills. If you have any questions, please feel free to give me a call. Sinc rely, os ph .
