<br />ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - JULY 26, 1999 <br /> <br />20 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Mr. Fritsinger stated that it would be helpful for the Council to have a better understanding of <br />what all is involved in the Highways 96/1 0 corridor, with regard to costs and infrastructure <br />improvements for land aequisition. <br /> <br />Mayor Probst stated that, in discussions with the Minnesota Department of Transportation and <br />Ramsey County, what most likely will happen will be that no one else will bring anything to the <br />table. He suggested that BR W present a proposal in order for the City to gain an understanding <br />of what it was worth and decide whether or not to pursue the project or delay it. <br /> <br />Couneilmember Malone wondered if utilizing BRW was the way to go. He felt that the City <br />needed someone else to step back and take a look at I35W from north of Blaine down to County <br />Road C and Highway 694. He felt that someone needed to review the traffic counts and the <br />growth projeetions and provide the City with a rough plan. Mayor Probst stated that this was <br />what the I35W Corridor Coalition was attempting to do. He suggested trying to convince the <br />Coalition to pick this up as a project. <br /> <br />Mr. Fritsinger stated that the Managers had all met last Friday. The purpose of the meeting was <br />to get a handle on where the Coalition was going. Studies have been done and information has <br />been analyzed in order to determine how the loeal cities function as a region. He primary goal of <br />this meeting was to determine what to do next. The meeting led to discussions about the <br />Highways 96/10 project and there was a very positive response from the other eities that this <br />project may be appropriate for the I35W Corridor Coalition to help facilitate moving this through <br />the various agencies. The Managers at the meeting had wanted to see more loeal maps to <br />determine how this project relates to other communities. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Councilmember Rem stated that the City of Arden Hills needs to take into consideration more <br />than just the Highways 96/10 corridor and how this corridor will be impacted by projects north <br />of Arden Hills. She would feel more comfortable with this project if she knew how it would fit <br />into the bigger picture and what plans there may be for other similar intersections. <br /> <br />Councilmember Aplikowski asked if the Minnesota Department of Transportation would be <br />onboard with this project. Mr. Fritsinger stated that it was hard to say. He noted that there was <br />more than just the Minnesota Department of Transportation to be concerned about, as all players <br />must be on board. <br /> <br />Mayor Probst stated that there is a beliefthat the City eould receive support from Elwyn <br />Tinklenberg and Ted Mondale. Ted Mondale has already expressed support for the Coalition <br />taking on this project. He stated that, with the Council's permission, he would propose the <br />option of the I35W Corridor Coalition taking on this project. <br /> <br />With regard to the Community Development Department Activity Report, Mayor Probst <br />expressed concern related to the first two Planning Cases discussed in the report. He noted that <br />there have been concerns about how to make the City more neighborhood friendly and he felt <br />that what was currently happening at the north corners of Cleveland Avenue and County Road D <br />was exactly what the City did not want to have happen. He was surprised that the City of New <br /> <br />. <br />
