I- I ARDEN RD.IJI CITY COUNCIL - AUGUST 29. 1994 perhaps by setting up a task force to study current traffic patterns and present recommendations. 4 Mr. Ed Kosse, stated that he lives on Stowe Avenue, which is in horrible condition and bas been for the last three to five years. Ramsey County did some work when they took it over and tried to repair it. But it is beyond repair, and residents feel they should have a better street. His understanding is that if the City does the work, it will be 1996 before it can be done. He suggested it be turned back to Ramsey Co~ to let them do the work. The street they originally put in bas lasted 25 years. Malone stated that there are a number of roads, including Stowe Avenue, that are in process of being turned back to the City. The estimated cost to rebuild Stowe Avenue is $250,000. The Council will be discussing this issue at the next worksession on Wednesday, August 30, 1994. Hicks agreed that the matter is serious and stated that the Council is considering how to tinanr.e the improvements that are needed. The County proposal is to do cold recycling which does not change the substructure of the road and does not include curbs and gu!.tla.,. The life ~19Rcy of the cold recycling process is 10 to 15 years. Council believes that for the money, it may be better to have it reconstructed.
