Box 490 <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />8.18. <br /> <br />RE: JOPLIN STREET UPGRADE <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Klaers: <br /> <br />CIVIL ENGINEERING: <br />ENVIRONMENTAL <br />V~UNICiPAL <br />PLANNING <br /> <br />SOLID WASTE <br />STRUCTURAL <br />SURVEYING <br />TRAFFIC <br />TRANSPORTATION <br /> <br />ELECTRiCAL/MECHANICAL <br />ENGINEERING <br /> <br />HVAC <br /> <br />POWER DISTRIBUTION <br /> <br />SCADA <br /> <br />SYSTEM CONTROLS <br /> <br />When the preliminary plat for Country Crossing 3rd Addition was brought before the City <br />Council, one of the conditions was that Joplin Street from County Road 30 to Riverview <br />Drive be upgraded and the plat pay for 50% of the improvement. August 19th, the final <br />plat of Country Crossing 3rd Addition is scheduled to be before the City Council for final <br />approval. We anticipate that the Developer will proceed with improvements yet this fall <br />and hope to have buildable lots on the market in 1996. Obviously, all the improvements <br />within the plat could not be finished until 1997. <br /> <br />Anticipating this schedule, I would suggest that the City Council direct us to prepare plans <br />for the upgrade of Joplin Street so that this work could be accomplished in the spring of <br />1997 at about the same time that the internal plat improvements are being completed. I <br />would anticipate that the improvement of Joplin Street could be packaged with Lowell <br />Avenue and Jarvis Street/156th Avenue for bidding purposes in the spring of 1997. I <br />have prepared the attached resolution for the City Council's consideration that would <br />initiate the preparation of plans and specifications for this portion of Joplin Street. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding this, please call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br /> <br />Terry J.
