<br /> <br />City of Elk River <br />REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />Agenda Section Meeting Date <br />Community Development December 18, 2006 <br /> <br />Item Number <br />6.3 <br /> <br />Prepared by <br />Catherine Mehelich, Director of <br />Economic Develo ment <br />Reviewed by <br />Scott Clark, Community Development <br />Director <br /> <br /> <br />Item Description <br /> <br />Consider Street Disruption Permit for J ackson Avenue <br /> <br />Introduction <br />Staff recendy received a request by Flannery Construction to reconfigure traffic and parking on Jackson <br />Avenue from January 15 until February 9 (20 working days) in order for a crane to be sited property to <br />complete the framing work of the Jackson Place development. Staff informed the River's Edge <br />Downtown Business Association of the issue via a public notice with regard to this evening's Council <br />meeting. <br /> <br />Discussion <br />The attached letter from Flannery Construction dated December 7, 2006 describes the situation for which <br />this reconfiguration is needed. Earlier, as you may recall, Flannery was able to abandon the need for the <br />reconfiguration when the timing of the work aligned with the bank's construction timing. Due to recent <br />construction delays, it has become necessary to reinstate the reconfiguration plan in order to coordinate <br />work from the bank side. <br /> <br />The length of time for the work (20 working days) remains the same as Flannery's previous request which <br />was approved by the Council on September 18. The only change is the dates for the work to occur after <br />the holidays, commencing January 15 for completion by February 9. <br /> <br />The reconfiguration design also remains the same as the previous request. As shown on the attached <br />map, the crane set-up is outside the existing fence line which, in order to accommodate one-way traffic <br />southbound, will necessitate a number of Jackson Avenue on-street parking stalls to be removed, but 5- <br />stalls can remain throughout the proposed timeline. <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> <br />.
