The one <br />outstanding engineering item was the reconstruction of Carson Street as it intersects Main <br />Street at the south end of the project site. We have agreed with the developers that this <br />intersection should consist of three lanes: an inbound lane 14 feet wide, a 2-foot striped <br />island separating inbound from outbound, and two outbound 12-foot lanes. This results in <br />a full width of 40 feet at the intersection of Main Street. We have also agreed that the right <br />turn lane for southbound Carson Street should be extended approximately to the north <br />driveway of the Burger Time Restaurant. <br /> <br />When we met with Mr. John Weicht and his group of developers, we discussed the affect <br />of this work on the Burger Time parking lot relative to their head-in parking adjacent to <br />Carson Street and the grade difference between Carson Street and their property. Prior to <br />d1'Y construction taking place, we should receive and review a detailed drawing indicating <br />how Mr. Weicht proposes to accomplish this construction so as not to impact the Burger <br />Time parking area nor create an unsafe condition on Carson Street. <br /> <br />If you have any questions or comments regarding this issue, please call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br /> <br />~~ <br /> <br />Terry J. Maurer, P. E. <br /> <br />TJM:tw <br />221-1615.jun <br />
