<br />.. <br /> <br />ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORKSESSION <br />AUGUST 18,2003 <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />and, as a result of the recent construction relative to the Guidant project, to <br />reconstruct Cummings Park Drive. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Mr. Brown reported that the cost savings to the City could reach twenty-thousand <br />dollars if the Council chose to go ahead with the opportunity now, rather than wait <br />until 2004. <br /> <br />Councilmember Larson asked if it would be feasible to coordinate the project <br />with the pumping of Karth Lake, and take advantage of the vacated water main and <br />use that as the pipeline for the water pumped from Karth Lake. <br /> <br />Mr. Brown said Councilmember Larson's idea was interesting, and said he would <br />research the possibility. He also presented the 2003 PMP Construction Project <br />Status recap. <br /> <br />The Council agreed that staff should bring the project back for approval at the <br />August 25, 2003 meting, <br /> <br />3.B Ingerson Stop Sign <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Mayor Aplikowski explained that she had received several letters from Arden <br />Hills residents, who requested a STOP sign be installed at the Ingerson <br />Road/CourtJFernwood intersection. <br /> <br />Resident Linda Swanson reported that she had undertaken a resident survey of <br />the residents in the Ingerson Road/Ingerson CourtJFemwood Avenue area, and the <br />results were as follows: <br />. 15 residents NOT HOME <br />. 21 residents NO STOP SIGN <br />. 3 residents YES STOP SIGN <br />. 4 residents UNDECIDED <br /> <br />Ms. Swanson explained that several Minnesota engineering studies supported the <br />notion that installing STOP signs did not necessarily control speeds or act as traffic <br />calming devices. <br /> <br />Councilmember Larson stated he agreed that the City should wait until after the <br />2003 PMP project was complete before it reviewed the STOP sign issue, . <br />
