Case #4: Consider Right-of-Way Ordinance <br /> <br />The Public Works Committee reviewed a case establishing a right-of-way ordinance, which <br />would govern the usage of City right-of-way by utilities and organizations wishing to locate their <br />equipment and structures. The ordinance is modeled after a League of Municipalities model <br />ordinance. The Committee had the following concerns, which they directed be further <br />investigated: <br /> <br />1. Does the ordinance adequately allow for a surety to cause the removal of equipment and <br /> utilities, if necessary? <br />2. How does this ordinance compare with the ordinance supplied from the Cable Commission? <br />3. Report on a franchise ordinance to charge for the use of the right-of-way. <br /> <br />Council Action: <br /> <br />None at this time. <br /> <br />Case #5: <br /> <br />Report from Meeting with Bill Rademacher and Discussion of Barium Street <br />Drainage <br /> <br />Staff reported that Rademacher was willing to both sell or donate eastern portions of Outlot A to: <br />the City, depending on whether the City would support an access from T.H. #47 into Outlot A <br />and Bill's Superette. Staff pointed out that MnDOT does not possess the right-of-access to <br />Outlot A, but also that an access at that location may be inconsistent with the T.H. #47 Corridor <br />Plan. <br /> <br />The Public Works Committee recommended that staff provide a review of the corridor study to <br />determine whether an access exception may be possible in the location desired by Rademacher. <br />Also, staff was to contact MnDOT to receive their position on such an access. <br /> <br />Council Action: <br /> <br />Motion to ratify the direction of the Public Works Committee. <br /> <br />Case #6: Update on All-way Stop at C.R. #116 and Dysprosium Street <br /> <br />It was reported that the four-way stop has been installed at C.R. #116 and Dysprosium and <br />appears to be working well and without major back-ups on C.R. #116. Staff discussed the <br />County Public Works Committee's suggestion that the speed humps on Dysprosium be removed. <br />The Public Works Committee felt that to implement some alternate traffic calming measures <br />necessary to satisfy the neighborhood would be an undesirable expense to the taxpayers. <br /> <br />Council Action: <br /> <br />No action necessary. <br /> <br />CC: 11/23/99 <br /> <br /> <br />
