I .. , I. CITY OF ARDEN HILLS MEMORANDUM I DATE: September 19, 1995 I TO: Bri." F';Gm,,,, C;ty Ad.....;"",", c;;j I FROM: Dwayne Stafford, Public Works Superintendent , . I SUBJECT: Restriping of County Road E - Highway 51 to Old Snelling Background I Council previously had an agreement with the County to make striping changes on this portion of County Road E and proposed striping is drawn out on the enclosed copies. The City had agreed to cover costs of moving loop detectors for semaphore. The County would pick up the remaining I costs. As of yet, nothing has been done. Current I I met with Dan Solar, and Vince Schaetz today after several letters requesting this work to proceed. Mr. Solar indicated several changes should be made to the approved plans and approval 1- of changes could start the new striping project next week. Chan~es Mr. Solar recommends: I 1. Abandoning the right turn from County Road E, Eastbound to Snelling, Southbound for now as the shoulder is not wide enough, but will be widened at a later date. I 2. Dropping four (4) lanes funneling into two (2) lanes from Old Snelling East on E and changing to a consistent two (2) lane, plus a turn lane all through the area. I , Adding striping to Lake Johanna Blvd., as shown, to align the lane with County Road E. ~. I Also, Mr. Solar would like the City to pay for removing the old stripes on the area to be changed, at a cost of approximately $2,000 or $.52 per linear foot. In exchange for this, the County would pay for the loop detector relocating, costing them between $2,000 to $3,000. I The reason for this change is budgeting. The County has a contract with an electric company to I provide this type of service and the County has no budgeted money for removing striping. Recommendation :- Accept changes made, send approval and go ahead with Mr. Solar's recommendations, with the understanding that the County will add the abondoned turn lane in the future. I
