Acting Mayor LeTourneau stated that the transportation theme was heard throughout the comments tonight and was pleased to see that is an element of the Comprehensive Plan. He suggested that perhaps staff review that part of the plan to include more granular plans for the neighborhood nodes.' Community Development Director Gladhill noted that staff can bring back a presentation simply on the transportation chapter at the next Council meeting. Councilmember Kuzma asked for additional details on the potential river crossing. Community Development Director Gladhill noted that the City continues to have discussions with the partners that would be necessary to make that happen. He stated that there has been an evolution on the Dayton side, which for many years had not been supportive. He noted that while the primary objective for Ramsey is Highway 10, the primary objective for Dayton has been the Brockton interchange and will not change their focus until that infrastructure is complete. He stated that City staff has had discussions with Dayton staff about holding a joint meeting with the Ramsey and Dayton City Councils along with MnDOT staff in the beginning of 2019. He noted that Champlin is also supportive of that connection as that would take pressure off the Highway 169 crossing. He noted that there is also work to do with the property owner and staff will continue to plan for the crossing although it will not be an immediate solution. City Council/August 28,2018 Page 15 of 23
