COUTY ROAD I AND <br />HIGHWAY 96/10 INTERCHANGE DISCUSSION <br /> <br />Mr. Tolaas presented an update on County Road I and the Highway 96110 Interchange. He <br />indicated, with respect to Highway 96, most of the improvement was completed up to Lexington <br />Avenue with some minor landscaping remaining. Segment 2, Lexington to North Heights <br />Church is scheduled to be let in June of 2002. There is also the issue of acquiring property on <br />the westerly end of the project, which would be acquired at current market value. Some parcels <br />had been identified for possible acquisition, but this would be discussed with staff in the future. <br />He stated he hoped to come back to Council for comment some time in March, 2001 for right-of- <br />way acquisitions to be acquired for Segment 1. The final design would come back to Council at <br />a later time. <br /> <br />Councilmember Larson asked if the design of Highway 96 would need to carry throughout the <br />entire project, and if they knew now where the cutouts in the island between Lexington Avenue <br />and Highway 10 would be located. <br />
