Box 490 <br />Elk River, MN 55330-0490 <br /> <br />RE: <br /> <br />TH 10 INTERREGIONAL CORRIDOR STUDY <br />TH 169 INTERREGIONAL CORRIDOR STUDY <br />RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF INTERREGIONAL CORRIDOR <br /> MANAGEMENT PLAN <br /> <br />Dear Council Members: <br /> <br />Mn/DOT is requesting that the City of Elk River adopt a resolution for both the TH 10 and <br />TH 169 Interregional Corridor Management Plans. City staff had originally anticipated <br />that the City Council would not consider these resolutions until there was an opportunity <br />for the City Council to hold public headngs with Mn/DOT and the consultants for the <br />studies available to present the plan and the City Council to take feedback from the <br />public. However, recently City staff has been informed that the City of Elk River is <br />apparently the only governmental jurisdiction involved in the studies that has not <br />considered adopting the resolutions regarding the Corridor Management Plans. <br />Therefore, staff has decided to bring these resolutions forward at this time. <br /> <br />There are several different ways the City Council can approach this issue. City Council <br />could consider one of the following options or a variation. The options staff sees are as <br />follows: <br /> <br />Take no action on the resolutions and let the final Corridor Management Plans be <br />published without a resolution from the City of Elk River. <br />Adopt a resolution that simply states that the City of Elk River was a participant in <br />the planning process and does or does not agree with the vision statement or goals <br />of the plan. <br />Adopt the resolution in the format suggested by Mn/DOT with a list of issues that <br />need further discussion. These issues could be as specific as commenting directly <br />on portions of the plan recommendation, or as generic as identifying segments that <br />need further discussion and planning before the City is willing to accept them. <br /> <br />Attached to this Correspondence are the following items from each Interregional Corridor <br />Management Plan: <br /> <br />1. Draft resolution presented by Mn/DOT. <br /> <br />Ltr 4.-11-02 Council2 <br /> 1326 Energy Park Drive · St. Paul, MN 55108 · 651/644-4389 fax 651/644-9446 toll free 888/368-4389 <br /> <br /> <br />
