He noted that this will allow the <br />improvements to be completed in 2019, while providing for the use of special assessments to pay <br />for up to 25 percent of the project costs per the applicable provisions of Chapter 8 of the City <br />Charter, the City's Special Assessments Policy, and Minnesota Statute Chapter 429. <br />Public Hearing <br />Acting Mayor LeTourneau called the public hearing to order at 7:20 p.m. <br />Citizen Input <br />Kathy Kruger, 18180 Krypton Street, stated that the bus stops in numerous locations along <br />Highway 47 and all of a sudden, they want to redo the cul-de-sac for bus use. <br />Acting Mayor LeTourneau stated that there is a new State Statute that does not allow a bus to <br />stop in a turn lane of a highway, but the bus can stop in the drive lane and therefore the <br />difference seems to be the use of the turn lane. <br />City Engineer Westby stated that it is his understanding of the legislation and noted that he <br />continues to have discussions with the School District. <br />City Council / November 13, 2018 <br />Page 4 of 14 <br />
