<br />However, as more detailed traffic information is completed for the Hardwood Creek <br />development, it is becoming more apparent that the restriction of turning movements from <br />southbound 21 st is negatively impacting the CSAH 14/54 intersection as well as CSAH 54/73 rd <br />Street intersection (112 mile to the north). The most notable impact is the high concentration and <br />large queue lengths of southbound 54 left turning movements onto CSAH 14. The City is <br />interested in partnering with Anoka County and the City of Centerville to examine alternative <br />designs for the CSAH 14/21 st Avenue intersection and/or modifications to the existing alignment <br />ofCSAH 54. <br /> <br />The developer is interested in a full access at CSAH 14/21 sl Avenue to enhance the economic <br />viability of the proposed commercial component of the development. While the City of Lino <br />Lakes supports the potential for maximizing the City's tax base in this area our main objective is <br />to insure that the incremental transportation decisions made today are conducive to the <br />establishment of an efficient integrated transportation system for tomorrow. We are of the <br />opinion, given the size of the Hardwood Creek project site, that there may be transportation <br />opportunities in conjunction with the development, that would not otherwise be possible solely <br />by the City or County. <br /> <br />The developer is supportive of working with both cities and the County to further review options. <br />Given the potential scope of the improvements it is imperative that Anoka County take a lead <br />role in the process. We recognize that the availability of you and your staff is extremely limited <br />given the number and scope of transportation projects currently underway in Anoka County. In <br />order to expedite the project, the developer is prepared to escrow funds to cover county review <br />and consultant related expenditures. <br /> <br />Any proposed improvements to the adjacent County Road system necessary to accommodate the <br />development will be at the cost of the developer. The developer will also be responsible for a <br />portion of the City share of the 1-35E/CSAH 14 interchange. I am hopeful that a solution exists <br />that accommodates the development and enhances the existing County transportation system <br />with little cost to Anoka County. <br /> <br />Both Lino Lakes staff and the developer have met with Centerville staff to discuss possible <br />alternatives. We are hopeful that the City of Centerville will concur with our request for Anoka <br />County to evaluate design alternatives. Both cities are in agreement that this process is not <br />intended to alter or interfere with the County's current design and implementation of the CSAH <br />14 reconstruction project. Our intent is to evaluate transportation alternatives that could be <br />implemented in conjunction with the reconstruction of the I-35E/CSAH 14 interchange. <br /> <br />The City of Lino Lakes has been very supportive of the County's work to address transportation <br />issues within this corridor. We wish to continue our effective partnership with Anoka County to <br />address long term transportation issues within this important area. <br /> <br />Please contact me at your earliest convenience to discuss this opportunity. I am also willing to <br />meet with the Public Works Committee, if necessary, to address the City's interest in this project. <br />Please contact me at (651) 982-2427 if you have any questions. <br /> <br />59 <br />
