<br />" <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />included as benefitted property within the legal description <br />that was published. Legally, at this point, based on the way <br />it is now, it couldn't be done unless you started over again, <br />assuming you felt it was benefitted. Then' that's a real ques- <br />tion - how much is it benefitted? Then you get the appraisal <br />situation and all the other stuff - I'm not so sure there is a <br />benefit up there that is so significant that you could assess <br />them for it. <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: The City is very hard pressed for money <br />this year - we could accept donations. <br /> <br />MR. POPOVICH: If they voluntarily donate it, that would <br />be another thing. My experience has been you get one or two <br />and the rest don't. <br /> <br />RITA SCHUNICHT: About the other alternative on Hamline <br />and Floral, the other alternative for easing the traffic flow. <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: I guess you're specifically referring <br />to some widening, perhaps, or some improvement like that. Mr. <br />Christoffersen, do you have anything further to say on that? <br /> <br />MR. CHRISTOFFERSEN: We really haven't looked into it <br />thoroughly. We did look into widening the west side of Hamline <br />Avenue, somewhat trying to create a merge lane. That type of <br />situation usually isn't done. You may think it's high volume <br />traffic, but it really isn't considered high volume when you're <br />in the traffic business. For instance, there is a merge lane <br />right now off ,of Colleen - when they had their projected traffic <br />(inaudible). I suspect that when Hamline Avenue is improved, <br />Hamline Avenue would be widened~, Several years ago the Council <br />did consider widening Hamline Avenue and it was not accomplished <br />because many people were opposed to it. It was discussed to <br />widen it to either 36 or 44 feet at the time. I think the <br />current standards for widening Hamline would be probably 46 <br />or 36 feet. The 36 would 'have restricted parking on one side. <br />That intersection, as far as semaphores - I'd like to ans~er <br />that question with some comments about traffic signals on <br />Floral Drive and Hamline. That particular portion of Hamline <br />Avenue is controlled by the State of Minnesota. If there are <br />any traffic signals put up in that location, the State of <br />Minnesota would be involved in it. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: What is the cost of a signal? <br /> <br />CHRISTOFFERSEN: That's kind of out of my ballgame. I'd <br />have to go to my traffic engineer. I'll take another shot in <br />the dark - $85,000 to $IOO,OOO. <br /> <br />MR. MARCEL EIBENSTEINER: At what point will it be <br />determined what part of the assessments are my portion when <br />the street runs through the park? <br /> <br />14 <br />
