<br />Roseville Public Works, Environment and <br />Transportation Commission <br /> <br />Agenda Item <br /> <br />Date: August 22, 2006 <br /> <br />Item No: 6 <br /> <br />Item Description: James Addition Access Discussion <br /> <br />Staff will give a brief history at your meeting regarding the access concerns for residents living <br />between Snelling Ave. and Fairview Ave. south of County Road C. This area of the city is <br />known as the James Addition. MnDot has threatened for years to close the median on Snelling <br />Ave. at Oakcrest. They proceeded with the closure, only to partially reopen the median in the <br />fall of2004 after protest by residents of this neighborhood and some City Council members. <br />They agreed to partially reopen with the condition that it be temporary, allowing the city time to <br />study and implement alternative access. We have included options for alternative accesses <br />previously discussed with the neighborhood and Council, as well as suggested options provided <br />by a resident. We also included a previous cost estimate for these options. The Council will be <br />discussing this issue on August 21, 2006, and may provide some direction on this matter before <br />your meeting. <br /> <br />Recommended Action: <br /> <br />Further discussion on alternative access and impacts. <br />
