4 street centered on that so it would be 16 feet toward the Roseville side and 16 feet to the St. Anthony side. HRS. MAIZEL parking? Which side of the road would have the MR. HONCHELL: That has not been decided and is one of the points we would be happy to get input on from the citizens tonight. It will not b e ultimately determined because we will have to meet with St. Anthony and mutually agree. MRS. MAIZEL What will the speed limit be? MR. HONCHELL: It will be unchanged. It's unmarked, which is 30 miles an hour. MRS. MAIZEL Whichever side does get the parking, how many parking signs - have you decided where they will be - at corners - you know, no parking this side, or what? MR. HONCHELL: Whichever side the parking is banned on there will be a series of signs indicating no parking at any time. MRS. MAIZEL Okay, I'm for parking on Roseville then. MR. CAROLL DAGE, 3090 Highcrest: My question, or concern, is one of lowering the speed limit. Highcrest is a speed track. Are there any plans for any traffic control mechanisms once it's resurfaced - lights or stop signs or rims in the road or something to slow down the traffic? MR. HONCHELL: To the best of my knowledge it's 30 miles now which is the minimum in the state, and cities do not have either the happy ability or unhappy ability of being able to establish their own speed limits. They are set by the state. What they do is come out and they monitor the traffic. They don't ticket, but take shots on the cars to find out how much they're travelling. They normally set that speed limit at about 85% of what the cars are actually traveling. The thing to watch is if the cars are going 40 and they come out and they do this study, they may up that limit to 40. That's why we caution people when they request (inaudible) the state would not normally lower it but if we request a review they might raise it to 35 or 40. As far as rims or bumps in the road, we feel that's a safety hazard. The stop signs are something that we would review probably after we put it in because we would want to see the effect it mayor may not have on the traffic. All I can say is we would be happy to review that when it opens and begins to get used. We don't want to see it turned into a race-track any more than you do. MR.ALLEN BRADWAY, 3024 Highcrest: I was wondering if there are any plans for the feeder streets bHighcrest for repair or resurfacing - more specifically, Lydia.
