Inventory <br /> <br />2) <br /> <br />4) <br /> <br />6) <br /> <br />b) <br /> <br />Initiate a study with the cooperation of Mn/DOT for <br />planning and implementing a service road along TH 10 <br />where there is existing development. <br /> <br />Right-of-way for proposed collector streets should be <br />obtained in large part as property is platted. <br /> <br />It is impossible to avoid all environmentally sensitive <br />areas when considering future road locations, but in all <br />situations the roadway should be designed to minimize <br />the impact. Where streams or rivers are crossed, bridges <br />should be designed to allow enough clearance for trails <br />to pass beneath them~ <br /> <br />Future signals along TH 10 should be programmed to accompany <br />other public improvements. This should be anticipated and <br />coordinanted in the capital improvement program. <br /> <br />The following road standards'should be adopted: <br /> 'R/W w~dth <br /> <br />Arterial 100' - 300' <br />Minor Arterial 80' - 100' <br />Collector' 80' <br />Local '66' <br /> <br />Plats which are approved in the urban area and are scheduled <br />for'sewer'and w~ter' within 5 years will have road improvement <br />requirements'waived'to-avoid duplication'of cost if an escrow <br />is provided% <br /> <br />PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION <br /> <br />As the'price of'fossil fuel increases, the issue of personal <br />mobility bedomes more and more Complex.

The <br />urbanized'por%ion'oflRamsey lies within the 7th service area, <br />and outside Of'the'transit taxing district. This means that <br />Ramsey pays only 1/10 the amoUnt that other commUnities do, or <br />.125 mills for'1980.
