<br />(e <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />., <br /> <br />A. <br /> <br />'If. <br /> <br />Entry Way Signage. The task force recommends that two entry way signs <br />should be located along Highway 96. The first at the southwest comer of <br />Highway 96 and Lexington Avenue. The second at the southeast comer of <br />Highway 96 and Interstate 35W, <br /> <br />The task force recommends that the sign face be constructed of a monolithic <br />cast stone (8 inches wide) in a light gray with recessed black letters, Also, <br />that "anti-graffiti" coating should be applied to the sign, The task force <br />recommends that the City consider using Windsor font on the entry way <br />slgnage. <br /> <br />The task force recommends that cut stone pieces of granite, which is a waste <br />product of the manufacturing process, be used for the retaining walls. The <br />task force recommends that the rainbow colored granite be used for the <br />retaining wall color. The task force also recommends at-grade lighting be <br />provided behind the retaining walls to provide directional lighting at the sign <br />face. <br /> <br />The task force recommends that the City pursue the mature evergreen <br />landscaping on the Twin Cities Anny Ammunition Plant (TCAAP) to <br />include behind the signs. The task force also recommends the inclusion of <br />annual planting beds with retaining walls to help visually define the entry <br />signs, Lastly, the task force recommends pursuing the assistance of Ramsey <br />County for surplus dirt for berming at the Lexington Avenue sign, given <br />Ramsey County's current road construction in the area. <br /> <br />B. <br /> <br />Median Landscaping. The task force recommends the inclusion of turf with <br />underground irrigation as the preferred ground cover for the median. The <br />task force also recommends that the addition of ornamental trees at the ends <br />of these tree groups (provided by Ramsey County) with low level shrubs <br />beneath the ornamental trees, <br /> <br />c. <br /> <br />City Hall access. The task force would recommend that if the <br />redevelopment of the City Hall site does not require the use of the median <br />cut (in front of Public Works driveway), then the median cut be relocated to <br />Keithson Drive, which is at the top of the hill and has the potential for <br />expansion into the Reiling property, <br /> <br />D. <br /> <br />Noise walL The task force does not recommend the provision of a noise <br />wall, but would recommend the provision of additionallandscaping/benning <br />by Ramsey County in those residential areas (ie" Arden Manor Mobile <br />Home Park) in which residents are directly adjacent to the roadway and do <br />not have the proper building setback. <br />
