PUBLIC HEARING <br /> City of Ramsey <br /> Anoka County <br />State of Minnesota <br /> <br />Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the Ramsey City Council held a <br />public hearing regarding Street Improvement Project (Tungsten, Rivlyn <br />and Front Streets) on September 23, 1980, at the Ramsey Municipal Center, <br />151.53 Nowthen Blvd. N.W., Ramsey, Minnesota 55303. <br /> <br />Members Present: <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec <br />Councilman Sorteberg <br />Councilman Reimann <br />Councilman Mickelson <br />Councilman Cox <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec called the meeting to order at ?:35 P.M. and led in the <br />Pledge of Allegiance. <br /> <br />City Engineer Raatikka said the proposed project consists of upgrading <br />Tungsten Street, Front Street and Rivlyn Avenue. Since the proposed <br />project is located in the 1990 Urban Service Area, he recommended <br />that construction of the street to ultimate standards be put off until <br />services are constructed. He recommended t~ alternatives to the <br />ultimate street sections: 1) Consider the proposed suburban street <br />section for Tungsten and Front Streets and 2) Consider not doing any <br />improvement other than the drainage inlets to the storm sewemon Rivlyn Avenue. <br />The cost estimates were done at the end of July and would be good for <br />this year only. He said adding a couple inlets to the storm sewer at <br />Rivlyn Avenue and Tungsten Street would cost an estimated $2,400 which <br />should be assessed to property owners from the entire area that drains <br />into the storm sewer. <br /> <br />Ms. Ruth Gustafson~ 62J~ Rivlyn Avenue <br /> <br />Ms. Gustafson asked why the city is putting in streets now if sewer <br />& water will be coming in. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec said that is a concern of the council also as the pipe <br />will be available in 1982. <br /> <br />Mr. Kerry O'Rourke, 62~2 Rivlyn Avenue <br /> <br />Mr. O'Rourke stated the water problems came about because of Grosslein's <br />commercial property going in on Rivlyn Avenue. He said they didn't <br />have any problems with their roads there until Grosslein brought in <br />80 pound Semi's. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec said the city told Grosslein he had to take care of the <br />drainage there. The drainage problem the city is finding now is from water <br />coming down Rivlyn Avenue to the Corner of Rivlyn and Tungsten Street, which <br />then runs to Grosslein's and cross the street. <br /> <br />PUBLIC HEARING <br />September 23, 1980 <br /> Page 1 <br /> <br /> <br />
