<br /> . <br /> The County has also looked at several other options, but has concerns about each of these. One .. <br /> option would be to cul-de-sac Old Highway 10 just south of Highway 96. The entrance to <br /> Highway 96 from Old Highway 10, is currently too close to New Highway 10 for proper spacing, <br /> In this option Round Lake Road's access would have to be moved to the east as far as possible . <br /> without encroaching into the Round Lake Wetland area. <br /> The only other viable option would be to try and seal off the area of Round Lake impacted by . <br /> placing the service road in its originally planned location and clean up only that area. Mr. <br /> Tolaas, however, is skeptical of this idea as the costs of just the service road area clean up could . <br /> go into the millions. <br /> He has also expressed concern that if the lake contamination was determined to have been stirred I <br /> up trying to isolate the service road area, the County would end up responsible for cleaning the <br /> entire lake. Mr. Tolaas has indicated this option could delay this segment of reconstruction 2-5 <br /> years in the most optimistic situation. In the worse case it could be delayed longer and any I <br /> portion of the Highway 96 project not contracted out by the year 2005, will loose all turn back <br /> funding. <br /> Informational Meetin!! . <br /> An informational meeting was held on September 25, 1996. All affected residents were invited <br /> and most attended. Mr. Tolaas gave a brief background of the original concept and explained the . <br /> problems with the Round Lake issue. The option of moving the alignment to the north was <br /> presented and a question and answer session followed, with Mr. Tolaas and Mr. Fritsinger <br /> fielding questions, Most of the questions were about the relocation program and how it would .. <br /> help them. <br /> Recommendation , <br /> The County recommends that the Arden Hills City Council consider the option of shifting the <br /> current highway alignment north, in order to allow a service road to be constructed on the south . <br /> side of the highway without the need to disturb any contaminated Wetland area. This service <br /> road would attempt to connect Round Lake Road and Old Highway 10 as originally planned and <br /> have one common access across from an Arden Manor access to Highway 96, I <br /> . <br /> . <br /> I <br /> . <br /> .. <br /> 1 <br /> ! <br />
