Box 490 <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: DESIGNATION OF MUNICIPAL STATE AID ROUTES <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Klaers: <br /> <br />We have finished the update of the Municipal State Aid system and find that the City has <br />approximately six-tenths of a mile of undesignated MSA route. Last year, there was <br />approximately half of this amount; therefore, no designation of new MSA routes was made <br />in 1995. Previous to that, in 1994, we deleted some routes and added 201st Avenue, <br />193rd Avenue, and a south frontage road in the Western Area. These roads reflected <br />components of the draft transportation plan. <br /> <br />Six-tenths of a mile does not allow a major addition to the City's MSA system. However, <br />with the revoking of a current MSA route, perhaps one of the small segments located in <br />the downtown area such as Lowell or Evans Avenue south of Main Street, we could <br />designate the proposed route from County Road 12 (181st Avenue) south to 175th Avenue. <br />In the future, as more mileage becomes available, we could complete the route from 175th <br />Avenue down to 171st, and out to TH 10. As you are aware, we have previously sent a <br />letter to Mike Tardy, District 3 State Aid Engineer, indicating that the City would be <br />considering this addition to the system. He has made a review of this preliminary request <br />and has indicated that he finds it acceptable. <br /> <br />I have enclosed a copy of the 1995 Municipal State Aid Street System map on which I <br />have indicated where this addition would be. I will be in attendance at Monday evening's <br />meeting should you or any of the Council members have questions regarding this issue. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br /> <br />Terry J.
