Howard R. Green Company <br /> <br />Item 6.18. <br /> <br />October 3, 2003 <br />File: 822200J-0325 <br /> <br />The Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />City of Elk River <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: COUNTY~CITY TRANSPORTATION DISCUSSIONS <br /> <br />Dear Council Members: <br /> <br />On Tuesday, September 30, 2003, Dave Schwarting and I held our first monthly meeting to discuss <br />transportation issues of interest to both Sherbume County and the City of Elk River. We have <br />established the fourth Tuesday of each month to continue these discussions. Attached is a copy of <br />the minutes I prepared from this first monthly meeting. <br /> <br />As you can see from the minutes and as we have discussed previously, Mr. Schwarting and I think it <br />would be productive to have elected officials from the County Board and City Council meet with Dave <br />and myself on a quarterly basis. Dave has indicated he will attempt to involve the two County <br />Commissioners who represent Elk River. I indicated that I would ask the City Council for two <br />volunteers to participate. Mr. Schwarting and I thought it would be appropriate for the elected officials <br />to participate in a meeting either in October or November. At this point in time, the main issue of <br />discussion with the elected officials would be the specifics of a contract between the City of Elk River <br />and Sherburne County to have Elk River undertake the design and construction of County Road 44 <br />(Meadowvale Road). The City rejected the first proposal from Sherbume County, but Mr. Schwarting <br />believes it is worth discussing further. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding the enclosed meeting minutes or any other items of importance <br />you think should be discussed between the elected officials of the County and the City, I will be in <br />attendance at an upcoming City Council meeting. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Howard R. Green Company <br /> <br /> urer, P.E. <br />Terry <br /> <br />TJM:sw <br /> <br />Enclosure <br /> <br />Ltr-100303-Schwarting <br /> 1326 Energy Park Drive · St. Paul, MN 55108 · 651/644-4389 fax 651/644-9446 toll free 888/368-4389 <br /> <br /> <br />
