3) <br /> <br />Update on the Speed Study on CSAH 5 between TH 47 and 167th Avenue <br /> <br />Assistant Public Works Director Olson explained there was a request for a speed study on <br />CSAH 5 that was forwarded to MnDOT. There was some question of the validity of the study <br />since it was reported in July, which is not during the school session. It was found after fm'ther <br />review that the study was completed in October and April. However, after even further review <br />it was found that one of the dates the ispeed study was conducted in front of Ramsey <br />Elementary School was on MEA weekend. The motion of the Public Works Committee was to <br />table the speed study so a representative of MnDOT could be present to explain how speed <br />studies are done and what the results indicate as far as a request for speed limit reductions. <br />This will come back in a work session sometime in January or February. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Elvig, seconded by Councilmember Kurak, to ratify the <br />recommendation of the Public Works Committee in Case No. 3 and table the speed study on <br />CSAH 5 between TH 47 and 167th Avenue, and to invite a representative of MnDOT to attend <br />a meeting to discuss the issue. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Pro Tem Zimmerman, Councilmembers Elvig, Kurak, <br />Cook, and Pearson. Voting No: None. Absent: Mayor Gamec and Councihnember <br />S tro m m eh. <br /> <br />4) Review the Warning Sign Placement at 169tn Avenue and Neon Street <br /> <br />Assistant Public Works Director Olson stated the City had received a request from a resident to <br />put up some speed advisory plates and chevrons warning people of a turn coming up in the road <br />in his neighborhood. There was a reduction in traffic speeds after the signs were posted, but <br />staff docs not feel that is how the situation will remain. The Public Works Committee made a <br />motion to table filrther action on the removal of the chevrons until May of next year to get a <br />more stable speed study, as well as notify some of the neighborhood because there have been <br />some complaints about what the chevrons look like. It is being recommended that action on <br />this be tabled until the May Public Works Committee. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Cook, seconded by Councilmember Elvig, to ratify the <br />recommendation of the Public Works Committee in Case No. 4 and table any further action on <br />the chevrons placed at the area of 169th Avemle and Neon Street until the May Public Works <br />Committee meeting, and that the Committee review the situation at that time. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Pro Tem Zimmerman, Councilmembers Cook, Elvig, <br />Kurak, and Pearson. Voting No: NOne. Absent: Mayor Gamec and Councihnember <br />Strommen. <br /> <br />City Council/December 14, 2004 <br /> page 18 of 33 <br /> <br /> <br />
