In regards to the Potassium St. alignment, it appears that it will be difficult to encroach on the existing <br />wetlands. Staff has contacted the Lower Rum River Watershed Management Organization (WMO) and <br />explained the situation regarding Potassium St. The WMO has given the initial indication that no impact <br />of the wetlands will be allowed to accommodate the construction of a new Potassium St. Staff will <br />provide t~urthcr information regarding the WMO's rationale at the Council meeting. <br /> <br />The City Council also directed staff to begin working on cost estimates and intersection upgrade options <br />for both the south and north Old County Road 5 accesses. Staff has come up with several options for the <br />City Council to consider. (See attachments). The options are as follows: <br /> <br /> l) Keep the general alignment of Potassium Street, cul-de-sac the southern Old Nowthen access <br /> onto Nowthen Blvd., realign the northern Old Nowthen access with Nowthen Blvd. to make a <br /> safer intersection. <br />2) Extend the Quicksilver Circle right-of-way to directly access Nowthen Blvd., cul-de-sac the <br /> southern Old Nowthen access onto Nowthen Blvd., reali'gn the northern Old Nowthen access <br /> with Nowthen Blvd. to make a safer intersection. <br />3) Extend the Quicksilver Circle right-of-way to directly access Nowthen Blvd., cul-de-sac both the <br /> southern and northern Old Nowthen access to Nowthen Blvd. <br /> <br />Staff will be prepared to talk about each one of the options at the Council meeting. <br /> <br />Finally, would like to inform the Council that the 120-day period allowed for preliminary plat approval <br />under State Statute will expire on June 28, 2005. <br /> <br />Council Action: <br /> <br />Will bc based on discussion. <br /> <br />CC: 6/14/05 <br /> <br /> <br />
