- ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION - APRIL 2, 2003 5 . Mr. Mangine replied the idea of sharing fueling; road access, and security would all work. He noted they would work on a contingency plan if things changed with the National Guard building. Commissioner Bezdicek recommended they relied on the present durnpsite for oil and forego this proposal. Commissioner Ricke asked about the proposed traffic flow in and out of the facility. She asked where the large trucks would be located. Mr. Heider replied everyone would have to exit at Hamline. Highway 96 and Hamline were County Roads and both roads would be used to some degree. He noted Highway 96 was a very good east/west connection for them and indicated the vast amount of traffic would probably be going to the east on Highway 96. He stated there was less County work south on Hamline. He indicated Highway 96 would be used the majority of the time. He noted if there was a problem with traffic, they could address this in the future and they were sensitive to traffic concems. Chair Sand asked what was the overall plan in terms of starting construction. Mr. Heider replied the actual construction would start later this summer with plans of occupation of the building in fall, 2004. If the building were not ready by fall, 2004, they would wait until spring, 2005 to move in. Chair Sand asked how would the reconstruction of Highway 96 affect this project. Mr. . Heider replied it probably would not affect this project that much. He noted Highway 96 would be reconstructed under traffic and they would work with that issue. Chair Sand expressed concern that there would be additional traffic on Hamline as they reconstructed Highway 96. Mr. Heider replied he did not think this would be an issue.
