Work this fall will consist of tree removal, utility relocation, pond construction, bridge construction <br />and soils correction through the swamp area between 1-35W and Mound Trail. This area of the project will <br />be closed to thru traffic from September 2007 until approximately November 2008. A signed detour will <br />implemented utilizing CSAH's 54(20th Ave.), 34(Birch St.), 49(Hodgson Rd.) and 23(lake Dr.). <br />Construction is anticipated to continue throughout most of the winter. Entrances disturbed by the <br />construction will be restored to an acceptable condition. <br /> <br />Tree removal is anticipated to begin in mid September. Trees scheduled for removal will be marked by <br />Anoka County before the contractor cuts them down. If you have specific concerns about trees in your <br />front yard, please call me so we can discuss your concerns. I have been in contact with our Right of Way <br />Department and have been made aware of any comments previously provided by property owners. <br /> <br />Anoka County Highway Department Survey Crews have begun placing construction stakes on the <br />project. These stakes, marked with colored flagging or paint, are used as reference points for the <br />construction. These stakes do not represent the location of the new roadway. Please call me if you have <br />questions about these reference stakes. We appreciate you not disturbing these stakes during <br />construction. These stakes will be removed when they are no longer needed. <br /> <br />Some of the temporary inconveniences that you will encounter include traffic delays, noise, dust, <br />vibrations, and limited access to homes. Dust created by construction operations will be reasonably <br />controlled using water. These inconveniences are unavoidable; however, they are temporary and will be <br />minimized to practical extents. We appreciate your patience in advance and your consideration of worker <br />safety <br /> <br />For residents with mail boxes on Main Street, the Contractor will coordinate with the local Postmaster to <br />deliver your mail to a temporary mailbox for the duration of this project. At the end of construction, your <br />old mailbox will be attached to a new safety support and relocated close to its present location. The old <br />support is your property and will be left on your land for your use or removal. <br /> <br />I will be the Anoka County Project Representative. I will be on-site during construction to answer your <br />questions. There will be an informational open house on Tuesday, September 18th at 8t. Genevieve <br />Parish Community Center at 4:30 to 7:00 pm. where a representative will be able to answer any <br />questions you may have. In addition, Anoka County publishes a weekly construction update on all <br />county projects.
