Box 490 <br />Elk River, MN 55330-0490 <br /> <br />RE: 5TH STREET/DODGE/ELK HILLS DRIVE FEASffiILITY <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Klaers: <br /> <br />As you are aware, we are working on the feasibility study for the road improvements to 5th <br />Street, Dodge, and Elk Hills Drive. The original schedule indicated the feasibility study <br />would be presented to the City Council in late November or early December. However, <br />based on comments we received when the original study was presented relative to the Elk <br />Hills Drive/Dodge intersection, we are further exploring the option of a T intersection, <br />which could be signalized in the future. We have contacted the traffic engineer from the <br />Brainerd office of MnDOT, and asked him to assist in this process. They have agreed to <br />analyze the effect the signal would have on their trunk highway system, and to provide us <br />feedback relative to their position on such an installation. They indicated that their work <br />would be available within the next two weeks. Therefore, I would like to hold-off <br />presenting the final feasibility study to the City Council until sometime in early January, <br />so that this item can be adequately addressed. <br /> <br />We are continuing with the preliminary survey work and the preparation of a base map of <br />the area, which could be used for the public informational hearing. I believe the slight <br />delay in the feasibility study will not cause a great delay in the entire project schedule, <br />should the City Council proceed with these improvements in the Spring of 1995. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br /> <br />~J1ItIl#UN <br /> <br />Terry J. Maurer, P.E. <br /> <br />TJM:pd <br /> <br />246-081O.dec <br />
