resources for each other in troubleshooting issues or just answering <br />questions. <br />3) Counter Road 77 Turnback <br />In 2011, we worked with Sherburne County to accept a turnback of County <br />Road 77/Proctor Road, from County Road 1 to County Road 33. The <br />County completed a resurfacing improvement project to this segment prior <br />to the turnback. The turnback benefited the city a couple of ways. First it <br />allows us to increase our state aid mileage thus increasing the state aid <br />allocation we receive every year. Secondly, allows the city the opportunity to <br />review the traffic control, lane striping, and speed limits along the segment in <br />accordance with our standards to best serve the needs of the residents. It <br />also gives the city control of the right-of--way along this corridor allowing us <br />to plan for and provide utility and street network to the north if the gravel <br />mining area were to be developed. <br />4) Intersection Enhancements <br />We have discussed the idea of adding a right turn lane at the intersection of <br />Proctor Road (CR 1) and TH 10 with Sherburne County. A number of <br />constraints including limited right-of--way, driveway locations, and the <br />intersection of 6`~ Street make this turn lane construction challenging. We <br />are continuing to discuss options to help with the turning movements in this <br />intersection. Our next step, working with Sherburne County, is to talk with <br />the adjacent property owners and meet with MNDOT to discuss potential <br />modifications that could be implemented. <br />5) Traffic Signal SXstem Inventorv <br />In 2011, Sherburne County completed a comprehensive traffic signal system <br />inventory and inspection for all 18 systems within the city. We have since <br />used this information to complete a needed maintenance and painting <br />schedule. <br />6) Public Works Building Expansion <br />On various occasions Sherburne County staff took the time to show the City <br />of Elk River staff around their newly constructed Becker Public Works <br />maintenance facility. This experience assisted during the design process to <br />better understand which components of the facility should be included or <br />excluded from our facility. John Mentor, Sherburne County Public Works <br />Director, also sat in on our interviews of Construction Managers. John's <br />insight and opinion were helpful due to his experience having just gone <br />through a similar project in Becker. <br />Please call with questions. <br />N:\Public Bodies\City Council\Council RCA\Agenda Packet\0409-2012\4-9-12 County Collabontion.docx <br />
