TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION <br /> <br />2.01: Provide Direction: Highway 10 Frontage Road Between Ramsey Blvd & Armstrong <br />Blvd <br /> <br />City Administrator Hagen introduced Jason Orcutt from the Anoka County Transportation <br />Division. He stated they are looking for Council direction on the frontage road between Ramsey <br />Boulevard and Armstrong Boulevard which would be a dead-end cul-du-sac and extending it <br />toward EZ Auto to provide access to it. <br /> <br />Mr. Orcutt stated this could potentially be a large cost savings to the taxpayers, and to the project <br />as a whole. He added it could also potentially offset some of the City and County costs. He asked <br />for discussion and direction around design attributes. He stated since they met last time a gated <br />access was added because the cul-du-sac would be longer than what a typical City street would <br />allow. He stated the proposed break-a-way gates would allow access to Fire and Police. He stated <br />City Council Work Session /July 26, 2022 <br />Page 1 of 19 <br /> <br />
