Creative Solutions for Land Planning and Design -- Hoisington Koegler Group Inc. 111[21 RIO April 17, 1996 Mr. Patrick Klaers, City Administrator City of Elk River P.O. Box 490 13065 Orono Parkway Elk River,Minnesota 55330-1743 RE: Riverfront Pathway Dear Mr. Klaers: As we discussed at the last meeting of the Elk River HRA, we need to complete the schematic design and develop refined cost estimates in order for the City to determine the most appropriate way to proceed with the Riverfront Pathway project. That work is nearing completion, and a meeting with the HRA and Riverfront Pathway committee would be in order. Because of other events that may preclude my presence at a meeting in late April or early May, I would like to schedule such a meeting in the middle of May (May 15 or May 22). We can provide the BRA with information prior to that meeting if desired. • At the meeting,I would like to have the HRA and Riverfront Pathway committee review the entire design. The last time the project was presented to the HRA and the City Council, we learned a great deal, and the continued input of these groups will only benefit the project. We would also review the cost estimates, which would be broken into the following categories: Area 'A' The area along the river which falls between Jackson Street and King Street Area 'B' The "hole,"or the area directly across Jackson Street from Main Street to the river Area 'C' The area along the river east of Jackson Street Area 'B' would be divided into two parts to provide flexibility in identifying a project that could begin in 1996 or 1997. This information should allow the HRA to determine a course of action that suits the community's ability to implement an acceptable design. Please call me if you have any questions.
