Mayor Sather questioned if any written ==espondence was received by the Administrat= relative to the proposed :inprovement. Berger stated no ==espondence was received pertaining to this matter. Engineer Maurer gave a brief overview of the proposed street reconstruction and stonn sewer :inprovements on North Snelling Avenue, from Trunk Highway 96 south to Briarknoll. He advised the :inprovements were prcll'tpted by the pavement management program, which rated Snelling Avenue as one of the worst streets in the city, based on =ndition of the street, the traffic volumes and use; the other factor is the City recently obtained Municipal state Aid designation f= North Snelling, which allows the City to utilize gas tax funds reilnbursed to the cities to help offset =nstruction costs. Maurer stated the Council authorized the preparation of a feasibility study in January 1991, to analyze reconstruction of the roadway. He advised the proposed improvement is to reconstruct the road to a 36 ft. wide, 18 feet on either side, urban type street with a =ncrete barrier curb and gutter alorq the edge. Maurer ellplained that ac=rding to MSA standards the 36 ft. width allows parking on one side of the street; it is proposed that parking be allowed on the western side of the street to accommodate patrons of the park. He stated the street would be designed for a 9-ton axle weight, with six inches of gravel base and four inches . of blacktop.
