Oity of <br /> <br />INFO/IMATION <br /> <br />Memorandum <br /> <br />River <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL <br /> <br />STEPHEN ROHLF, BUILDING AND <br />ZONING ADMINISTRATOR <br /> <br />DATE: JUNE 12, 2000 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: UPDATE ON CSAH 33 & 77 PROJECT <br /> <br />I recently inspected Barton Sand & Gravel Company's gravel pits adjacent to County <br />State Aid Highways (CSAH) 33 and 77. As the Council is aware, these are the two roads <br />that the city, county, CAMAS (now Aggregate Industries), and Barton Sand & Gravel are <br />considering lowering in the near future. <br /> <br />The best timing for this project is immediately after Barton has completed mining <br />operations in the adjacent pits, but before they move their equipment out of the area. It <br />was believed that this would take place in the next year or so. <br /> <br />Barton has now decided to mine the southern most portion of their pit that lies west of <br />Proctor Avenue. Although this area had been previously approved for mining, Barton did <br />not think is was worth the effort. This has extended the life of this pit approximately <br />three years. <br /> <br />Consequently, the timing for making plans for the lowering of CSAH 33 & 77 is not as <br />critical as we originally thought. Staff will monitor this situation, but the time for <br />planning the road project will probably be the winter of 2001/2002. <br /> <br />Cc <br /> <br />Dave Schwarting <br />Brian Benson <br />Terry Maurer <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
