I want to assure you we are <br /> not ignoring the problem; however, it is quite complex given the narrow right -of -way and numerous <br /> obstructions in the vicinity. We have had to ask a consultant to study the proper location for a <br /> school crossing flashing light. I'll admit there has been some miscommunication that may have <br /> caused delay. <br /> The biggest challenge currently is determining where the utilities are. As of today, we have been <br /> waiting to hear from school and city officials on how they want to proceed. <br /> Anoka County has been working to reduce the numerous barriers to sight along the route. We are <br /> in the process of contacting property owners. We will be installing new school signing in the new <br /> yellow -green color that should make them very visible. This will be the first use of them in Anoka <br /> County. <br /> I do regret the length of time this has taken and will do everything I can to get this solved. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Margaret Langfeld <br /> Anoka County Commissioner <br /> ML:si <br /> FAX: 323 -5682 Affirmative Action/ Equal Opportunity Employer TDD/TTY: 323 -5289 <br />
