Councilmember Kuzma asked whether the slides were available for review. City Engineer <br />Westby stated the slides were not attached to the case since very preliminary assessment amounts <br />are shown on the slides so he did not want to push them out to the public yet. <br />Councilmember Johns asked where access to Woodland Green is located. City Engineer Westby <br />stated Woodland Green access is east of Highway 47 and 156th Avenue. <br />City Engineer Westby stated City Staff hopes to move forward with the feasibility report and <br />potential adoption by the City Council. <br />Motion by Councilmember Shryock, seconded by Councilmember Johns, to recommend that the <br />City Council order a Feasibility Report for the 2018 Overlay Improvements, City Improvement <br />Project #18-03. <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Riley, Councilmembers Johns and Kuzma.

He added a draft <br />Comprehensive Plan is due for submission by June 2018. He noted City Staff have been <br />collecting raw data through communication with residents, and transportation issues are a big <br />priority. <br />Community Development Director Tim Gladhill stated the City's traditional transportation map <br />incorporates the Highway 10 access planning study, and City Staff is focused on selecting <br />preferred alternatives. He added there is currently a series of 22 different exhibits that comprise <br />a staged plan for Highway 10. He added this will be laid out in one document, which will be the <br />Ramsey Highway 10 plan. <br />Community Development Director Tim Gladhill stated the other priority issue for residents is the <br />river crossing, which will not happen in this planning period. He stressed the importance of <br />reserving the corridor and planning for a river crossing. <br />Community Development Director Tim Gladhill stated another issue of focus is a Rum River <br />crossing, which would alleviate traffic congestion on Highway 47 and Bunker Lake Boulevard. <br />Councilmember Kuzma asked whether that would be a pedestrian trail crossing. Community <br />Development Director Tim Gladhill stated a roadway crossing may not be well received by the <br />City of Andover. He added a joint meeting should be scheduled with the cities of Andover and <br />Dayton. <br />Public Works Committee / September 19, 2017 <br />Page 6 of 11 <br />
