**Item 3.4.** <br /> <br />Howard R, Green Qompany <br />OONSULTING ENGINEERS <br /> <br />February 11, 2000 <br />File: 800110J-0069 <br /> <br />Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />City of Elk River <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />P.O. Box 490 <br />Elk River, MN 55330-0490 <br /> <br />RE: CSAH 13 TURNBACK <br /> <br />Dear Council Members: <br /> <br />As you are aware, when the City constructs Tyler Street north of CSAH 12 it will eventually turn <br />that route over to Sherburne County to be the continuation of CSAH 13. Likewise, the County <br />will then turn back the old alignment of CSAH 13 to the City of Elk River. State Aid rules allow <br />the City to place county turnback roads on the City's municipal state aid system above and <br />beyond the allowable mileage. The only condition is that they must begin and end on a trunk <br />highway County state aid road or municipal state aid road. In the case of the turnback portion of <br />CSAH 13, the City is therefore eligible to place the portion from CSAH 12/Main Street up to 5th <br />Street on the City's municipal state system. <br /> <br />Attached is a resolution for the City Council's consideration that will request the placement of <br />Twin Lakes Road (Old CSAH 13) from CSAH 12/Main Street to 5th Street on the City's municipal <br />state aid system. Having this additional mileage on the municipal state aid system will likely <br />reflect in a small increase of the City's annual construction funds allotment. It also allows the <br />use of municipal state aid funds for the reconstruction of this portion of old CSAH 13 at some <br />point in the future. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding this issue please call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Howard R.
