<br /> .. ~ <br /> Arden Hills Council 5 March 14, 1994 <br /> . Engineer Maurer stated the road would be able to <br /> withstand normal traffic which would include garbage <br /> trucks and school buses. If any future development would <br /> take place in this area, another access would have to be <br /> gained to this area. The project as proposed would not <br /> be designed for heavy equipment. <br /> steve Zilmer. Carol Perkins. 3363 North Dunla~ - He asked <br /> what assessment amount was anticipated for his property? <br /> Winkel stated he would review his parcel and get back to <br /> him at a later date. <br /> Kurt Lawrence. 4516 Keithson Drive - He referred to the <br /> liability issue of a poorly developed road and who is <br /> responsible. He asked what was the anticipated life <br /> expectancy of a new street? <br /> Maurer noted that it was a drought year when this road <br /> was originally constructed. As moisture began to build <br /> up as experienced in the past couple of years, the soil <br /> began to consolidate causing recompaction of soil. He <br /> further noted that due to the number of settlements on <br /> this road, it cannot be leveled properly without the <br /> . recycling, and it would be physically impossible to <br /> patch. <br /> Jim Cox. 1287 Inqerson Road - Mr. Cox asked what quality <br /> control measures would be taken to ensure the safety of <br /> children. He noted that since construction would be <br /> taking place during the summer months, children would be <br /> playing around the heavy construction equipment. He <br /> suggested that the project specifications include <br /> stringent safety measures. <br /> Maurer explained that his engineering firm would oversee <br /> the project and that all parties abide by the acceptable <br /> standards set by MNDOT to ensure safety. He further <br /> explained that a contractor is allowed to phase in the <br /> project in an economical manner, therefore there are <br /> stages to the construction process. <br /> Ron Nelson. 4504 Keithson Drive - He echoed the concerns <br /> brought up by Mr. Lawrence. He too expressed the issue <br /> of defective workmanship demonstrated by the former <br /> contractor, and did not feel the total problem was due to <br /> the drought year. <br /> Engineer Maurer stated he did not mean to infer that the <br /> drought was the reason for the defects in the road. He <br /> . only suggested this as one possible reason for the <br /> deterioration. <br />
