<br /> ~.~ 'h"'/f'7 <br /> William F. 8retzke .u. <br /> Director, Building Services <br />, <br /> e <br /> Two Pine Tree Drive <br /> Arden Hills, Minnesota 55112 <br /> (6121631.7151 <br /> June 8. 1987 <br /> Ms. Pat Morrison <br /> Village of Arden Hills . <br /> 1450 West Highway 96 <br /> Arden Hills. MN 55112 <br /> Dear Ms. Morrison: <br /> On behalf of MSI Insurance I request that the Arden Hills Council reopen <br /> their consideration for a semaphore at the intersection of County Road E <br /> and Pine Tree Drive. Approximately one year ago I requested your considera- <br /> tion. Attached is a copy of your response. <br /> It is our judgement that the traffic crossing at that intersection is unsafe. <br /> We have received several complaints from our employees prompting our original <br />, inquiry a year ago and now we have had more frequent complaints. We <br /> strongly urge you to consider this matter before someone's life or property <br /> . becomes a motivating factor. <br /> , <br /> I discussed this situation with a Ramsey County engineer and he suggested <br /> that I start again with the Arden Hills Council. We realize that there are <br /> peak traffic times early in the day and later in the afternoon. At any <br /> time of day though there are increased risks to drivers pulling out of <br /> the Norwest Bank. Woodbridge Properties. and Pine Tree Drive because <br /> of the speed and flow of traffic. Another complaint that we have received <br /> is the inability to make turns from Pine Tree Drive onto County Road E <br /> westbound. The presence of the center lane increases the complexity of <br /> the turn decision as drivers are impatiently waiting. <br /> I would be happy to meet with either you or the Council to discuss this <br /> request further. <br /> Sincerely. <br /> 0ftft~-~~ <br /> William F.
