Mayor Gamec suggested that a new traffic count be done between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Mr. Jankowski stated he would gather more information and report back to the Road and Bridge Committee at their December meeting. That will also give the petitioner another opportunity to be present for the discussion. COMMITTEE INPUT Mr. Jankowski stated that the bid for Project #98-21 (extension of sewer and water across Ramsey Blvd. into Section 28) has been awarded. Rarnsey has received permission from Anoka County to open cut Ramsey Blvd. However, we are nmning into problems because bituminous plants are closing down for the season and we may not be able to do the project now unless we pour a temp. or .ar-y concrete patch. The City will save $ ! 7,000 by open cutting versus bore and jacking the lines under Ramsey Blvd., but the contractor would like to proceed with the project this Fall. Mr. Jankowski stated that if he can't find a bituminous plant that is still open, he may be calling the Committee for permission to bore and jack versus open cut. The meeting oft,he Road and Bridge Committee adjourned at 6:02 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Sylvia Frolik Zoning Administrator City Engineer I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I
