In 1982, Front <br />Street was designated an MSA route from Tungsten to the west boundary of <br />Riverside West Plat. As a State Aid road, it would he eligible for State <br />funding. The current city policy is that those properties that access a <br />MSA road will be assessed 50% of their frontage cost for a particular <br />improvement; there will be no assessment to the property owner that does <br />not have direct access to the MSA road. The proposed alignment would be to <br />extend Front Street west to the Riverside West plat; Rivlyn, a dead-end <br />with no turn-around for snowplows, could be extended and a cul-de-sac <br />installed or aligned to the north to tie into the proposed Front Street. <br />Mr. Raatikka stated that H~ DOT is trying to eliminate as many accesses as <br />possible onto Hwy. %10. The proposed Front Street improvement would <br />provide for an alternate traffic route in the event of current accesses to <br />t~y. %10 being eliminated and direct traffic to a controlled intersection, <br />Sunfish Lake Blvd. <br /> <br />Mr. Hartley stated that the proposed Front Street is in the very <br />preliminary planning stages and the City wants input from the property <br /> <br />Priscilla O'Bourke - 6232 Rivlyn - Inquired if there are plans to close <br />Tungsten Street and if this issue is the result of sn(mpl(~ing concerns. <br /> <br />Mr. Raatikka replied that there are no plans to close Tungsten. <br /> <br />Mr. ~artley stated that the subject area is served by one access. Because <br />of that it is a safety hazard during all times of the year. Another <br />concern is traffic access to ~f. %10 and the need to clarify boundaries <br />and where roads go and should go before any more develounent takes place. <br />The city wants the property owners to be a part of the advanced planning. <br /> <br />The/ma Graves - 6322 B~y. %10 (Home) & 6314 ~y. %10 (Office). - Stated <br />that the proposed alignments will cut her property in half and require <br />relocating her business storage garage; inquired as to how the proposed <br />improvements will benefit snow removal efforts. The access to her property <br />is a private driveway and the City doesn't pl(~; it half the time; when the <br />City does pl~ in that area they just rut up the road; to prevent any more <br />of that happening she blacktopped and put up gates. <br /> <br />Sp Council/February 10, 1987 <br /> <br />Page 3 o~ 10 <br /> <br /> <br />
