~i <br />city or <br />Elk <br />River <br />TO: City Council <br /> <br />FROM:. Jeremy Barnhart, Planning Manager <br />DATE: August 3, 2009 <br />SUBJECT: 17150 Focused Area Study Update <br />ITEM 8.1. <br />At their meeting on June 1, 2009, the City Council postponed further discussion on the <br />Focused Area Study pending MnDOT's decision on the interchange grant application. On <br />July 24, 2009, the City learned that it did not receive dollars toward the construction of an <br />interchange. <br />The Council may recall that the anticipated plan of action if the City was not awarded the <br />interchange dollars included the following: <br />1. Amending the plan to reflect "possible future interchange." <br />2. Show a new signalized intersection (pending approval by MnDOT). <br />3. Develop a land use plan and access plan for the west side of Highway 10. <br />Consistent with the previous direction, staff has requested a formal proposal from HKGI to <br />prepare a land use plan fox the west side of the highway. Additionally, staff will work with <br />MnDOT to better understand the options relative to adding a signalized intersection south <br />of 1715[. Further information, including the proposal, will be presented for discussion on <br />August 17. <br />
