I St~Htll~I~S Ilt~. PRODUCT DISTRIBUTION SPECIALISTS . August 3, 1992 City of Arden Hills 1450 West Highway 96 Arden Hills, MN 55112-5794 Dear Administrator, I am the managing partner of Distributing Properties which owns the building occupied by - Scholls, Incorporated on Round Lake Road. I am writing in regard to the road improvement assessment for Round Lake Road. My fear is that we have arrived at the assessment state without understanding the problem. Resurfacing Round Lake Road might only be a temporary fix. I have contacted Mr. Berger in the past and more recently your engineer Mark Graham in regard to my observations of the road. Sometime during the spring of 1991 water began surfacing on the road, even during dry periods. This is most notable early in the morning before evaporation takes place. Until recently, the water was coming down the Aquatrol driveway and heading south towards Scholls. I believe this constant submersion is a key factor in the break-up. In fact, the Aquatrol driveway also broke up this spring well above the road level. With my input, your engineer advised the managers of the Aquatrol building to divert the water into the south east ditch at the base of their driveway when re- paving. This seems to have had a positive effect in that location. Now the water seems to be coming from the dirt farm nOl1h of Aquatrol. Each and every morning the road is covered with water. Where is this water coming fi.om? Is this a result of the contamination testing sights in this area? Where can this water be diverted to? Who is responsible? These are just a few of the questions I have, but I believe they should be answered before a fix is established. . P.O. BOX 64116, ST. PAUL, MN 55164. (612) 636-0892. FAX (612) 636-8532.
