Regular City Council Meeting <br /> Monday,January 14, 2019 <br /> Page 2 <br /> Mr. Freihammer stated Public Works will update any curb ramps as a part of this <br /> project to the latest requirements. <br /> Mayor Roe asked if it made sense to look at any more mid-block crossings along <br /> that stretch as traffic calming measures. <br /> Mr. Freihammer stated at this point, that is the only one at the park because it was <br /> the main destination. He noted staff can look at it, but he did not think there was <br /> any other need at this time. <br /> Councilmember Etten for clarification, the road is being redone from County <br /> Road C to County Road D, but a pathway is only being installed from Troseth to <br /> County Road D. He wondered if there will be no parking on either side of the <br /> road. <br /> Mr. Freihammer stated there will be no parking on Old Hwy. 8, North of Troseth <br /> but the parking will be kept south of Troseth. He noted it will look similar to <br /> what it is today,but parking may be flipped to the opposite side of the street. <br /> Councilmember Etten asked if there will be bike lanes through that distance. <br /> Mr. Freihammer stated there will be a small shoulder for the three-lane section but <br /> with the parking lane, bike lanes cannot be added because there is not enough <br /> width. <br /> Councilmember Groff asked if there will still be parking on the south end where <br /> there are residential homes. <br /> Mr. Freihammer indicated parking will remain there. <br /> Mayor Roe stated regarding the Twin Lakes East collector, at the time the City <br /> looked at this, it was thought that potentially business to the south could consider <br /> moving their entrance to line up with the Lincoln Drive intersection towards the <br /> west end of that. He was not sure if the businesses were interested in that, but it <br /> might be worth staff time to remind the businesses that it is still on the table. <br /> Mr. Freihammer stated another entrance off Lincoln Drive is a viable access for <br /> the businesses. There is actually a short turn lane in the design to accommodate <br /> turning traffic. Other designs were looked at to move the second entrance more <br /> towards the actual intersection but that will be more difficult with the grade. <br /> Mr. Freihammer reviewed the preliminary layout of what the parking lot for City <br /> Hall will look like. He indicated the main driveway will be shifted to the north a <br /> little. This will eliminate the bottleneck of all of the driveways coming in at once <br /> and also moves it a little farther up the hill and away from the retaining wall <br />
