Page 1 of 1 AGENDA ITEM – 1E MEMORANDUM DATE: April 16, 2018 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Dave Perrault, City Administrator FROM: Matthew Bachler, City Planner SUBJECT: Old Highway 10 Mail Delivery Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: N/A N/A N/A Background In 2016, the City of Mounds View renamed the segment of County Road Highway 10 within their jurisdiction to Mounds View Boulevard. This same roadway continues south into Arden Hills where it is named Old Highway 10. There are 16 properties in Arden Hills with an address on Old Highway 10 between Highway 96 and Interstate 694. It appears an error occurred when the U.S. Postal Service updated their database for the name change approved by Mounds View and the new street name was also applied to these 16 properties in Arden Hills. Staff has heard from two residents on Old Highway 10 who have experienced difficulties with mail and package delivery as a result of this, however additional residents may have been impacted as well. Staff contacted the Address Management Systems division of the U.S. Postal Service on April 10, 2018 and provided them with a list of the 16 properties with an address on Old Highway 10. A verbal update on the status of the property address correction will be provided at the Work Session meeting. Staff has also spoken with the post office in New Brighton and learned that the local mail carriers are aware of the issue and have been delivering mail through the postal service to properties on Old Highway 10 as usual. Emergency service providers rely on property address information from Ramsey County. From reviewing Ramsey County records, there has been no change to the property addresses on Old Highway 10 in Arden Hills and this issue has not had an impact on emergency response services.
