Roseville Public Works and Transportation Commission Agenda Item Date: March 23, 2004 Item No: 7 Item Description: Discussion of Roselawn Avenue Turnback In 1991, the Minnesota Legislature established a Ramsey County Local Government Services Study Commission to "report on the advantages and disadvantages of sharing, cooperating, restructuring, or consolidating..." activities in areas of public service including Public Works. This consolidation plan proves for reclassification of roadways and corresponding changes in jurisdiction including the transfer oflocal and State Aid roads between the County and municipalities. Roselawn Avenue between Hamline Avenue and Fulham Street is presently under the jurisdiction of Ramsey County. This roadway has been determined to serve a primarily local function. Ramsey County desires to turn back the roadway jurisdiction to the City ofRoseville. In the case of a roadway turn back, the consolidation plan stipulates that Ramsey County shall improve the roadways to acceptable levels prior to transferring jurisdiction. We have been working with Falcon Heights and Ramsey County on deternlining what level of improvements is necessary to achieve an "acceptable level". We have completed a road condition survey of these segments as well as inspecting all of the storm sewer structures. Using this information, we have reached a tentative agreement with Ramsey County on the terms of the road turn back agreement.
