The City is allowed to designate 20 <br />percent of its oligible mileage to be on the State Aid System. This year, Anoka County has <br />designated an additional 6.6 miles of County State Aid roads within the City and, <br />consequently, eliminated 6.6 miles of County Road designation. The State Aid rules allow <br />County Roads: to be used in determining the City's base mileage, however, County State <br />Aid roads are not allowed. This results in the City having 0.65 miles over the maximum <br />mileage allowed. Therefore, we will not be able to designate additional mileage on the <br />State Aid System. Mr. Jankowski explained that, in the long mn, the expanded State Aid <br />System within: Ramsey will allow a greater number of potential linkages than allowed by <br />the present system. He listed the possibilities not previously available: a linkage of <br />McKinley Stroet north to County Road gl I6 on the east end of Business Park 95, a linkage <br />of 167th Avenue between Variolite Street and Armstrong Boulevard, and the improvement <br />of 161st Avenue between Variolite Street and Armstrong Boulevard. <br /> <br />Councilmember Zimmerman suggested keeping the future MSA road designations closer to <br />the sewer and water district. <br /> <br />Road & Bridge Committee/January 9, 1996 <br /> Page 1 of 4 <br /> <br /> <br />
