get those State and county projects completed as soon as possible. His firm is also trying to only have to contend with one rush hour when making fill deliveries to those other State and County project areas. Mr. Rehbein stated he was agreeable to amending hours of operation to 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. A resident claimed that trucks are coming into the project area prior to 6:00 a.m. and she had heard that the trucks were supposed to be stopped from entering until 6:00 a.m. Mr. Rehbein stated that his foreman was stopping the trucks from entering the area until 6:00 a.m. but he was informed by the State Highway Patrol that 153rd is a MSA route that can be traversed by trucks 24 hours a day. Mr. Peck stated that he interprets the permit to read that no excavation operations will occur prior to 6:00 a.m.; spreading of topsoil material is an agricultural function. Mr. Peck also recommended that no trucks enter the project area prior to 6:00 a.m. until the access problem is resolved. Dennis Schmeichel - 7961 150th Lane - Stated that if this fill material is so vital to the State, then the State should lend it's support to the crossing at the Design Center and Hwy. ~10 being reopened. Council directed City Staff to solicit State support for the reopening of the Burlington Northern railroad crossing at Hwy. #10 and the Design Center. Gregg Smith - Inquired if Ramsey's police chief has the authority to stop trucks entering the project area prior to 6:00 a.m. Police Chief Auspos replied that 153rd is an MSA route and Rehbein has a right to use that street. Marguerite Henke - 8062 154th Avenue - Noted that school buses are stopping on Armstrong Blvd., sometimes in front of Rehbein's trucks, in order to board passengers; it might be safer if the school buses would board children around the nearest corner rather than stopping on Armstrong. Council directed City Staff to contact the school bus company to determine whether or not boarding children on Cry. Rd. #83 should be discontinued for the balance of the school year. Motion by Councilmember Cox and seconded by Councilmember DeLuca to accept L&G Rehbein's offer to amend their conditional use permit hours of operation from 6:00 a.m. - 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m., Monday, through Saturday, until such time as an alternate access is designated to the Northfork project area. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Reimann, Councilmembers Sorteberg, Cox, DeLuca and Pearson. Voting No: None.
