CITIZEN INPUT <br /> <br />Lynne Rickert - 15231 Waco Street N.W. - Referred to Consent Agenda Item//13 <br />(Improvement Project #89-18 Waco Street between 149th Avenue N.W. and 150th Avenue <br />N.W.). Lynne Rickert stated that this improvement project is proposed in order to provide <br />access to the proposed plat of Juniper Woods via Waco Street and 150th Avenue; she has <br />submitted a letter to the City describing the proposed access to Juniper Woods as a problem <br />because it would filter all of the Juniper Woods traffic south on Waco and east on 150th <br />past her home and thereby disrupt her way of life. Lynne Rickert stated that Juniper <br />Woods Lane should be the access into Juniper Woods and developed as a cul-de-sac rather <br />than connecting with 150th Avenue and extending into her development area. Lynne <br />Rickert also noted that the unsafe traffic conditions at the intersection of Hwy. 4/47 and <br />153rd Avenue N.W. will increase because of the additional traffic from Juniper Woods. <br /> <br />Mr. Otto noted that there is a public hearj'ng scheduled for August 29 regarding proposed <br />improvements to Juniper Woods. <br /> <br />Dorothy Stadfelt - 15111 Juniper Ridge Drive - Referred to Case 4/7 regarding final plat <br />approval of Juniper Woods and noted that the additional traffic from that development will <br />significantly increase the traffic hazards on Hwy. 4/47; those hazards being 3 major <br />intersections within 1/2 mile on a highway unable to handle current traffic loads. In <br />addition, the development will add to the already overcrowded school conditions. Dorothy <br />Stadfelt inquired if it is appropriate to grant final plat approval to Juniper Woods (Case 4/7) <br />prior to the subject area being rezoned for urban type development (Case//9). <br /> <br />Mr. Hartley replied that plat approval can be contingent upon rezoning but it would be more <br />appropriate to address the rezoning issue fn'st. <br /> <br />Tim Dusbabek - 7821 171st Ave. N.W. - Stated that he is present representing the <br />concerned residents of Golden Eagle Estates with respect to the proposed Dellwood Hills <br />Addition. Tim Dusbabek stated that the people are concerned with the increased traffic <br />through Golden Eagle Estates resulting from the development of Dellwood Hills. The <br />people are not opposed to the development but are concerned with future transportation <br />plans in this area. Tim Dusbabek inquired if there are plans to extend Bison Street to the <br />south and if not, are there means for regulating traffic through Golden Eagle Estates. <br /> <br />Mr. Otto replied that there are no immediate plans to extend Bison Street to the south; <br />extension to the south would occur as development occurs. The proposed development <br />agreement for Dellwood Hills requires that the developer deposit funds into an escrow <br />account for future improvements to Bison Street from 171 st to County Road//63. <br /> <br />Mayor Reimann indicated that the residents of Golden Eagle Estates would have to <br />approach the Police Department to initiate researching whether or not there is a need to <br />regulate traffic within that subdivision. <br /> <br />APPROVAL OF AGENDA <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember DeLuca and seconded by Councilmember Pearson to approve <br />the agenda with the following adjustments: <br /> <br />City Council/August 22, 1989 <br /> Page 5 of 17 <br /> <br /> <br />
