Arden Hills Council 3 April 13 , 1992 <br /> DISCUSSION : WEST_ <br /> ROUND LAKE ROAD <br /> City Engineer , Mark Graham said the feasibility report on <br /> West Round Lake Road is complete wherein several options for <br /> improvements to the roadway are examined , one option being <br /> cold in-place recycling (CIR) . Two resolutions were <br /> presented to Council for consideration : 1 ) Resolution 92-�25 <br /> to Accept The Feasibility Study and Order The Public Hearing <br /> Far West Round Lake Road , and 2 ) Resolution 92-25 To Order <br /> Preparation of Plans and Specs . <br /> Councilmember Mahowald complimented Graham for a very <br /> complete study . He questioned whether it would be possible <br /> to continue to "cut and patch" West Round Lake Road until <br /> there is a determination made as to future plans for the <br /> street . Public Works Superintendent , Dan Winkel , reported <br /> that the crew has been patching the road for some time and <br /> continuing to do so would make the road usable for a couple <br /> more years . Winkel expressed concern that each spring there <br /> would be more road deterioration. <br /> Councilmember Malone commented that since West Round Lake <br /> Road is not a petitioned improvement , the City could not <br /> successfully assess 100� of the cost of this project to the <br /> abutting property owners . He suggested some creative <br /> restructuring of financing be considered, which would stay <br /> within the confines of the annual budget , but allow for <br /> improvements to Tiller Lane , Dunlap , and West Round Lake <br /> Road . Winkel supported Malone' s suggestion. <br /> Mayor Sather asked Engineer Graham what he expects in terms <br /> of bids this year . Graham responded that he expects <br /> competitive bids , that perhaps it would be logical and <br /> economical to do West Round Lake Road along with the other <br /> projects already planned . <br /> Mayor Sather said it may be wise to wait and see how the <br /> Gateway business area develops and if development would <br /> provide some assistance for improvement to West Round Lake <br /> Road . <br /> Council consensus was to definitely accomplish the Tiller <br /> Lane project this year , but also to strive to improve Dunlap <br /> and West Round Lake Road. Engineer Graham said the Tiller <br /> Lane project is at a planning stage where it would need to <br /> be handled as a separate project , but it may be possible to <br /> plan Dunlap and West Round Lake Road together . He indicated <br /> he may be able to complete the Dunlap feasibility study by <br /> the first part of May if Council so desired . <br />
