June 9,2004 <br /> <br />TO: CiD' Manager, Ramsey Minnesota <br />(and person or persons that controI speed regulations) <br /> <br />FROM: Residents of Savannah Oaks <br />14351 Dysprosium Street N. W., Ramsey, 1VLN <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Noise Level at the Intersection of HighwaYs 47 and 5 <br /> <br />Since this building opcncd on October 1, .1999, the noise ievcl at the intersection of <br />Highways 47 and $ has increased at least ten times. This is the result of population <br />growth and much more traffic. We feel the speed limit should be no more than 35 <br />miles per hour north and west of this intersection,-until drivers have left the newly <br />populated area of this intersection. <br /> <br />There are some drivers who use this corner to lay down a strip of rubber whenever <br />they feel like it, using it as a drag Strip. <br /> <br />We feel there should be some type of noise barrier, i.e., fence, shrubs etc. This could <br />.possibly reduce some of the noise. Sometimes it is so loud that you cannot hear the <br />T.V. or converse with friends. <br /> <br />It seems only reasonable with the building and 'population growth of this area, that <br />a lower speed limit would make. the offenders think before they speed, and if they <br />don't, it certainly should increase revenue for the city's overall budget costs. <br /> <br />Please look into this matter. Signatures below indicate many of us who would <br />appreciate action and response to this request. <br /> <br /> <br />
