<br />~ <br /> <br />COUNTY <br /> <br />OF <br /> <br />ANOKA <br /> <br />Public Services Division <br />HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT <br />1440 BUNKER LAKE BLVD. N.W., ANDOVER, MINNESOTA 55304-4005 <br />(763) 862-4200 FAX (763) 862-4201 <br /> <br />September 8. 2005 <br /> <br />Mr. Dallas Larson <br />Administrator <br />City of Center vi I Ie <br />1880 Main Street <br />Centerville. ivIl\' 55038 <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Larson: <br /> <br />This letter is in response to your letter dated August] O. 2005 that pertained to questions <br />on the revised Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that I forwarded to you on July 29.2005. <br /> <br />With regards to right-of-way issues. we would ddine the term nlllleconomic remnant". to <br />be a parcel of land that is not large enough to be buildable under current zoning regulations. For <br />exam pic. if we need to purchase an entire parcel even though our highway right-of-way needs <br />are only across a portion of the propcl1y, we will keep the portion of the property we need for <br />highway purposes and dispose of the excess portion. Generally. if the exccss portion is so small <br />that no reasonable building could bc constructed on it under zoning regulations. then this excess <br />property will be conveyed to the City subject to specific ncgotiations with affected property <br />owncrs. If the excess portion of the property is large enough for a rcasonable building <br />improvement. then Anoka County will remarket the propcrty. In this case. we would offer the <br />City the rights to buy this propcrty at appraised market value before we olTer this to the public. <br /> <br />The second paragraph under the "Traffic Signals" section of the MOll has hecn revised <br />to show that the intersection 0 l' 21 sl A venue with CSAII 14 \vi II operate as a "y, -access" <br />intersection until such time that a new interchange at l-35E is constructed. The:y, -access will <br />allow both left and right turning movements from CSAII 14 onto 21>1 ^ venue in both directions. <br />Turning movements for both southbound and northbound 21 SI A venue onto CSAI-I 14 \vill be <br />limited to right-out only. Upon the construction of a new or partially new interchange at 1-351::. <br />the access at CSAH 14/21'1 Avenue will be limited to right-in/right-out only. <br /> <br />Dctcrmining whether or not the County would participate in a backage road between 20111 <br />and 2151 A venues can only be determined during final design of our project and after an analysis <br />of the construction staging for CSAI-I 14 has been completed.
