The noise modeling assumed a vehicle speed 000 MPH on Fairview Avenue south of County Road C, 35 MPH on Fairview Avenue north of County Road C, and 45 MPH on Snelling A venue. The modeled noise levels were comparable to the monitored noise levels for the existing conditions, which indicates that the vehicle speeds during monitoring were relatively close to the speed limits used for the modeling. Vehicle driving conditions and speed would not be expected to be substantially different in the winter months than the summer months. In the last legislative session, the state statutes were amended to exempt city and county roads from the state noise standards. F. Metropolitan Council 1. Metropolitan Council requests inclusion of the Twin Lakes Comprehensive Plan Amendment in the response to EA W Question #6.
