Mr. Doug Fischer
Anoka County Highway Director
1440 Bunker Lake Blvd. NW
Coon Rapids, Minnesota 55433
Dear Mr. Fischer:
The Centerville City Council has been holding meetings with the business owners and
residents regarding the proposed CSAH 14 widening project to gain insight into the impact
this proposed road project will have on the City as a whole, businesses that operate along
CSAH 14 and are affected by diminished access to same and residents with similar
concerns regarding access to their residences, reduced property values and speed/safety.
Through the course of these meetings we have developed a list of areas, that we as a group,
feel need to be addressed by the County. We have several issues that we would desire
clarification on and we would also like to request that the County consider all of our
suggested/proposed design concept modifications that would assist our community in
access to existing and future business development and residential housing.
We would appreciate a time frame for these items to be addressed so that at our municipal
level they may be completely addressed and presented at the proper time.
Clarification Items:
+:+ Can the City request that the overhead utilities be placed
underground? If so, who covers the cost for that portion of the
project? Does the City make this request or does the County?
+:+ Where will the mailboxes be placed along Main Street?
+:+ When should the City notify the County as to potential
streetscape plans for the downtown area? (Street lighting,
planters, sidewalks, etc.)
Suggested/Proposed Design Concept Modifications:
.:. Five to seven dwellings on the north side of CSAH 14, just west
of 20th Avenue, will be dramatically impacted by the present
proposal. These property owners may consider selling their
properties to the County, allowing the alignment of the roadway
to be moved north. This re-alignment would allow ample
widening so not to impinge upon the business accesses located
on the south side of CSAH 14 and ideal positioning to meet the
probable expansion to the 35E bridge.
.:. Speed study of Main Street from the 20th Avenue intersection to
the St. Genevieve Cemetery where an anticipated speed change
to 35 mph would occur. (This may assist in the classification of
the roadway, i.e. (Urban vs. Rural).
.:. The use of concrete medians that diminish access into businesses
is very undesirable. Turn lanes that allow controlled access is
much preferred.
.:. Controlled intersections at 20th Avenue/CSAH 14 and 21st
Avenue/CSAH 14 with full turning access allowed.
We appreciate that the whole point of the roadway expansion is to manage traffic levels
now and into the future, however, we feel that this can be accomplished while minimizing
the negative affects the City of Centerville will incur.
We, the City of Centerville, are very grateful for the modifications that the County has
already agreed to make regarding the concept design through our community. We,
however, believe that the above Suggested/Proposed Design Concept Modifications would
be more conducive and complimentary to the use of the roadway and our community by
ensuring public safety for pedestrian traffic and citizens attempting to access private
driveways.
We appreciate the opportunities Anoka County has provided to the Council, as well as, the
citizens and business owners to voice concerns regarding this project. We would like to
thank you in advance for your consideration of our requests and your responses.
Sincerely,
Terry Sweeney,
Mayor, City of Centerville

Compensation to Circle Pines for Land and Lease
After reviewing this with the City Council, we are requesting the following compensation.
For the lease, the City of Circle Pines has invested over $36,500 in repairs and
enhancements to the building systems over the last couple years. The city's only
means of recouping that investment was the future lease payments. As a result, we are
requesting a payment from Lexington for buyout of their portion of the lease of $14,550.
We are requesting a payment of $16,975 from the City of Centerville. That would allow
for the termination of the lease on January 1, 2006, or the point the police department
moves into their new headquarter facilities.
As to compensation for the value of the land, Circle Pines only wishes to recover its
costs of acquiring the land. If the Police Governing Board is willing to compensate the
City of Circle Pines for its cost of acquiring the land from Anoka County, including the
costs of surveying, engineering and legal work from the building bonds proceeds, then
the city will at the end of the lease deed the land to the other cities in the appropriate
percentages for a dollar. To date we have incurred $5,663 in engineering costs and
$8,500 in surveying costs. There is probably another $1,000 in legal costs. At this point
it is unclear whether the county will actually require us to trade a portion of the city's
property adjacent to the site for the land from the county. If they do require the transfer
of that property, the city would request reimbursement for a mutually agreed upon value
for the traded property. .

RE: Cty. Road 14 (Main Street) Improvement Plans
Dear Mr. Hamel:
In response to your email of November 29,2004, the proposed widening of County Road 14/CSAH 14/ Main Street is a
County project. The best place for you to obtain information regarding this project is from them. However, I want to
make you aware that the City Council is being proactive regarding this proposed widening and will be holding a meeting
with residents and business owners on December 1, 2004 commencing at 6:30 p.m. in Council Chambers to discuss
same. This meeting was purposely scheduled prior to a public input meeting being held by Anoka County and SRF
Consulting Group on December 9, 2004 commencing at 5:00 p.m. at the Wargo Nature Center, 7701 Main Street, Lino
Lakes.
The following are some individuals that you may contact regarding this project:

This is an email I also received.
Teresa,
It is my understanding that the Council would like to have a Council Workshop regarding
our 14 project on December 1 at 6:30 at Centerville Elementary. I would like to suggest
that we delay having this meeting for the following reasons:
1.) We already have scheduled a Public Information Meeting for December 9 at 5:00 p.m. at
the Wargo Nature Center to show a revised plan from the previous Open House.
2.) This plan will show modifications that should address some of the most vocal
complaints including:
o allowing a full access at Cottonwood
o allowing a full access on 20th for the shopping center
o allowing left turns off of Main Street at 21st
3.) Finally, I personally have a conflict with a meeting this evening and would not be
able to attend (which at this point I feel is very important) .
I would suggest that if the Council felt that a workshop would be beneficial after the
meeting on the 9th, we could then certainly schedule one. Please let me know how the city
1
would like to proceed on this matter.

Subject: Cty. Road 14 (Main Street) Improvement Plans
Hello-Our firm is working with Gerald Rehbein in the development of his property both north and south of Main
Street, west of 135E. There is about 100 acres in total involved. The improvement plans for Main Street are
causing concern with the various prospective users we are working with who are interested in both the industrial
and commercial property. Is there a web site I can access that will provide me with the proposed highway plans?
The prospects are concerned that the plans will restrict access to the extent that the various sites will be too
difficult to get in and out of. This is a concern to all. Improved roadway facilities are needed, but continuing
access to abutting properties is also required.---Alan Hamel, Integrated Real Estate Services, Inc. 763-784-2877,

Dear Potentially Impacted/Affected Property Owner
Anoka County has informed the Council that they have modified their previous proposal
and will present same at a scheduled Public Iinput meeting at the Wargo Nature Center
located at 7701 Main Street, Lino Lakes, Minnesota commencing at 5:00 p.m. on
December 9, 2004. Representatives from Anoka County and their engineering firm,
SRF, will be on hand to discuss their proposals. They have provided the Council with the
following modifications and believe they have addressed the most vocal concerns of
impacted/affected property owners to date:
.:. Allowing a full access at Cottonwood Court
.:. Allowing a full access on 20th Avenue for the Comer Express Strip Mall
.:. Allowing left turns off of Main Street/CSAH 14 at 21 5t Avenue
Council is concerned that additional concerns/suggestions may exist that have not been
addressed up until this point and would like to provide you an opportunity to voice any
concerns/suggestions that you may have at a special meeting on December 1, 2004 at
City Hall in Council Chambers located at 1880 Main Street, Centerville, Minnesota
commencing at 6:30 p.m. Representatives from Anoka County and their engineering
firm, SRF will not be on hand at this meeting. Council desires to forward the information
obtained at this meeting to Anoka County and SRF at December 9, 2004 Public Iinput
meeting.
This letter is being forwarded to those property owners that abut CSAH 14/Main Street
and all businesses within the City. However, all meetings of Council are open to the
public unless otherwise noted.
Council looks forward to your participation and input on this issue.
Sincerely,
~~~
Mayor Terry Sweeney
, >
To Whom It May Concern,
We the businesses and land owners along the proposed expansion of Anoka County Road
14 are united in our belief that the expansion can and will have great impact on our area.
In order to make cities of Centerville, Lino Lakes and Anoka County aware of our
concerns we have agreed on these major points of contention.
Improved ability to access and exit all businesses and developable land along
County Road 14. The proposed median would greatly affect access to and from
business. There are many semis and other large vehicles that under the current proposal
will be required to perform a u-turn or go miles out of their way to reach their destination.
The median would also require many retail customers to perform a u-turn before they
could head in their desired direction. This would obviously have an adverse affect on
current and future business in the area as well as slow down traffic.
Speed and flow of traffic along County Road 14 from Centerville to 35E should be
controlled. The traffic along this stretch of County Road 14 passes by an elementary
school and through commercial and residential areas. Speed should be limited for the
safety of all. Traffic also needs to be controlled with the use of stop lights which would
create lapses in flow of traffic and allow greater access to 14 out of driveways and
businesses.
We believe that solving these two major issues would go a long way toward making the
expansion of County Road 14 safe and effective for all users. A possible solution to
these problems would be to reclassify the stretch of County Road 14 from Centerville to
35E which would slow down traffic and eliminate the need for medians.
Sincerely,
P4/~-
or
City of Centerville
As a commercial and industrial property owner Rehbein Properties would like to address
our concerns regarding the proposed Co. 14 design. The proposed median with out lights
or access will damage existing businesses and discourage future development. To the east
side of35E Hugo and Lino Lakes are working closely with two large commercial /
industrial developers to include stop lights and access in their plans. These developments
are selling and developing quickly. Uno access is provided on the west side of 35E all
new business will locate in the more desirable Hugo and Lino Lakes locations. We would
like to see a stop light at 21 st Ave. to service the Centerville and Lino Lakes property. If
this is not possible a light located between 21 st and 20th Ave. would be our second choice.
Either of these choices would make Centerville an equally desirable location for new
businesses.

Re: Speed Zoning - Goodview Avenue North, 210th Street North
Forest lake
Dear Mr. Syfko,
We have completed engineering and traffic investigations for Goodview Avenue North and
210lh Street North as requested in your September 20,2000 letter to Ed Brown. Because
the city of Forest Lake is now the road authority for these roads, we requested and
received concurrence from Chip Robinson of the city of Forest Lake to conduct the studies.
Based on investigation results and as Jolene Servatius discussed with you, we have
recommended authorization of the following speed limits:
Goodview Avenue North
45 mph -
between the intersection with 202nd Street North and the intersection
with 21 Oth Street North
35 mph -
between the intersection with 21 Oth Street North and the intersection
with Trunk Highway 97
210th Street North
35 mph -
between the intersection with Trunk Highway 61 and the intersection
with Goodview Avenue North
The proposed speed limits are currently being reviewed by our Office of Traffic Engineering
in Saint Paul, which will make the final speed limit determination. As soon as the review
has been completed, you will be notified of their decision.

Re: Speed Zoning - City of Forest Lake
Fenway Avenue N.
Dear Mr. Syfko:
An engineering and traffic investigation to determine reasonable and safe speed
limits has been completed for the above referenced street, as requested in your
October 19, 2001 letter to Ed Brown.
Based on the investigation results, and as Ed Brown discussed with you previously,
we have recommended authorization of the following speed limit for Fenway
Avenue North:
45 mph - between the intersection with 202nd Street North and the
intersection with Trunk Highway 97
The investigation data and recommended limit are currently being reviewed by
Mn/DOT's Office of Traffic Engineering, which will make the final speed limit
determination. As soon as the review has been completed, you will be informed
of their decision.
Before posting any speed limit, a routine review of Fenway Avenue is recommended
to ensure all needed traffic control devices are in place, visible, in good condition,
and in conformance with the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices.
When making the review, special attention should be given to warning and advisory
speed signs for any locations where the posted speed limit cannot be safely
maintained, as well as to other traffic control devices which can be impacted by a
change in speed limit.

One location that might warrant attention is the south end of the new segment (at

Brown (651-634-2372) or Jolene Servatius (651-634-2373) at this office.

December 7,2004
Dear Centerville City Council,
I wanted to share some comments with you relating to the Special Meeting that I attended
on Wednesday, December 1st relating to the Anoka County CR 14 project. I appreciate the
fact that a meeting was held, and that efforts were made to develop a list of concerns to
address with Anoka County.
My concern is whether the Council is committed to efforts that will challenge Anoka County
on issues that could be detrimental to the future of the entire community of Centerville. The
County's website indicates that one of the challenges of this project is to "achieve
community consent". I feel that there needs to be a stronger and more committed effort in
displaying a united front from the Council, the business community and the residents. This
is a defining moment for the future of Centerville, and the project can have a positive impact
on the community for years to come.
Again, I am appreciative of the efforts made by some Council members to develop the list of
concerns at the meeting. I was frustrated by comments made by a few Council members at
the end relating to the following topics:
. Suggesting that certain audience members had taken a negative approach to the
meeting, and that future meetings needed to be done with a more constructive
approach. I was hopeful that this would have been the tone that the meeting started
with, but in my opinion, it started with a very negative tone from one Council member
(Linda) in terms of what could be done. I admit that I became very frustrated and
challenged the Council in a way that I wish had not transpired. But it was insulting to
hear this "constructive approach" speech from a Council member who had created a
significant majority of the negative tone early in the meeting.
. Statements that the County had received point by point lists from the Council at
various design meetings in the past, and that these lists had been disregarded in
many instances when a new plan was published. After the meeting, I asked one of
the Council members if I could receive copies of the lists previously given to the
County. The response I received was that the County would have the record of the
lists, as most of them were filled out on "comment cards" gathered during the
meetings. I appreciate the fact that the "comment cards" were filled out by certain
Council members, but I don't think this is an effective way for the Council to have
their voice heard as a unified Council.
I feel that the current list of community concerns should be spelled out in a letter that is
official City Council correspondence. Also, my suggestion is that the tone of the letter be
stated in a manner firm enough to make it clear that "community consent" will not be
obtained if the issues are not addressed with reasonable responses and data to back up
decisions.

I was also very discouraged to see the article in the November 30th Quad Community Press
entitled "Businesses revolt over road project". Hopefully, the article was just poorly written
and had people being misquoted and misrepresented. My main issues relating to this article
are as follows:
1) Quote from Council member that states "The majority of people dissatisfied are the
businesspeople. Residents accept that this is coming, but many businesses are
upset by the disruption this will cause".
The fact is that a majority of business owners (if not all) are in favor of the project and
the benefit that it will have on their businesses (especially retail related businesses). To
further indicate in the quote that business owners are upset by the disruption that this
will cause, and have the writer of the article further the quote by saying that this
disruption will come in the form of limiting access because of construction equipment
and road barriers is missing the point of why business owners are concerned. It is the
permanent access to businesses beyond the construction period that is the issue.
I feel that this type of quote divides our community. Businesses accept that the road is
coming also. The only reason that to date more residents have not voiced more
opinions on the road is that in many cases they do not understand the full impact of
some of the decisions that are being proposed.
2) The staff writer earlier states that "one of the main issues for businesses in the area
is the construction work that will be coming through town". Nothing in the article that
is a quote from the business people speaks to this construction period at all. I realize
this item was not a quote from any Council member, but it appears that the writer
received the wrong general message from someone.
I have called the staff writer from the Quad Community Press to request an opportunity
to present a more accurate business stance on the project, and hopefully this will be
appearing soon.
I have attached copies of the letters Ooint business vision and .individual Northern Forest
Products concerns) that I have forwarded to various parties related to this project.
I would like to bring up one last issue that I may be requesting some further advice from
the City Council on in the future. At last Wednesday's meeting, I heard from the Council
that the trucks coming to our facility would have to exit at County J and then head north
on Anoka 54/Centerville 20th Avenue to CR 14. I have driven this route a few times in
the last few days, and also had one of our regular truck drivers attempt this route last
Thursday.
The driver had difficulties seeing eastbound traffic on County J coming over the bridge
while sitting at this exit ramp, had to swing into the oncoming traffic lanes on County J
and on CR54 to make the turn coming north, and again into oncoming traffic lanes when
turning east at the intersection of 20th Avenue and CR 14 in Centerville. This driver is a

very experienced driver, and he then barely made the right hand turn into our facility
without leaving the blacktop of our asphalt entrance.
After the above experiment, I realized that it would make sense to make sure the
residents along CR 54/20th Avenue know the impact of rerouting this traffic relating to
our business and other affected businesses. I personally hand delivered a package to
all of the residents along this stretch that included a letter outlining the effects of the
increased truck traffic, and also copies of the two letters that I have attached to this
letter. .
The advice that I will be seeking from the Council is what our route would be when road
restrictions are in place on this road (per many residents, this road becomes posted on
an annual basis). I understand that the County may not care about my business, but I
would like to know if you have any suggestions for how we would route trucks to our
facility when road restrictions are in place.
Thank you for taking the time to read my comments. I would like to move forward with a
positive approach together to make this defining moment for Centerville something that
we can all look back on and be proud of for years to come.
Sincerely,

To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing this letter to express my concerns relating to the current proposed expansion of
County Road 14 from 135W to 135E. My individual area of concern relates to the stretch of
CR 14 from 2051 Ave. S. to 2151 Ave. S., where our business is located on the south side of
the road. The proposed concrete median not allowing westbound traffic to make a left turn
into our business would severely impact our Company's ability to operate at this location.
Northern Forest Products is a distributor of hardwood lumber products. The incoming
lumber to our facility arrives in semi loads (full tractor and 48 foot trailer). The outbound
shipments of our lumber are shipped on common carriers that range from full tractor trailers
to medium size trucks. We currently have between 30-40 trucks per day entering our facility
(10-15 of which are full semis), and 99% of these trucks come west from 135E (after
traveling north on 135E). The concept of these trucks doing a u-turn to arrive at our facility is
impractical, and very unsafe.
It also is not logical to route these trucks off of 135E at an exit south of our facility, as the
community to our south would not look favorably at having this truck traffic routed through
their exit, and to drive north on roads that are not equipped to handle this type of equipment.
In addition to the above truck count, there are an additional 30-40 vehicles per day that also
enter our facility by traveling west from 135E.
We own two lots in the above referred to stretch of CR 14 (Lots 5 & 6). When we
purchased the second lot (Lot 6) in 1998, we worked with the Anoka County Highway
Department when requesting an access permit. The County expressed concerns about
having too many access points along this stretch, and we jointly agreed to make Lot 6 an
entrance only access, and Lot 5 became an egress only access point. This was done to
support the County's wishes to limit access, a better flow of traffic, and to promote a safer
road. It is now very frustrating to understand that our business may need to consider
relocating because our need to have westbound traffic turn into our facility has not been
valued in the proposed plan.
I am in complete support of the attached letter which represents the joint interests of
business and land owners along County Road 14 from Centerville to 135E. I believe that a
"concrete free median" solution can be entertained so that the speed and flow of traffic can
meet everyone's objectives, and also not severely impact the businesses and developable
land along CR 14.

To Whom It May Concern,
We the businesses and land owners along the proposed expansion of Anoka
County Road 14 are united in our belief that the expansion can and will have
great impact on our area. In order to make cities of Centerville, Lino Lakes and
Anoka County aware of our concerns we have agreed on these major points of
contention.
Improved ability to access and exit all businesses and developable land
along County Road 14. The proposed median would greatly affect access to
and from business. There are many semis and other large vehicles that under
the current proposal will be required to perform a u-turn or go miles out of their
way to reach their destination. The median would also require many retail
customers to perform a u-turn before they could head in their desired direction.
This would obviously have an adverse affect on current and future business in
the area as well as slow down traffic.
Speed and flow of traffic along County Road 14 from Centerville to 35E
should be controlled. The traffic along this stretch of County Road 14 passes
by an elementary school and through commercial and residential areas. Speed
should be limited for the safety of all. Traffic also needs to be controlled with the
use of stop lights which would create lapses in flow of traffic and allow greater
access to 14 out of driveways and businesses.
We believe that solving these two major issues would go a long way toward
making the expansion of County Road 14 safe and effective for all users. A
possible solution to these problems would be to reclassify the stretch of County
Road 14 from Centerville to 35E which would slow down traffic and eliminate the
need for medians.
