The present signal was installed in 1978, but increased traffic <br />generated by surrounding development justifies left turn lanes and appropriate geometric <br />and signal modifications. In order to construct these improvements, it is cleaz that <br />right-of-way acquisition will be necessary. This acquisition may lead to the relocation of <br />an existing business. <br />MUNICIPAL Through discussions with the City Council and staff, we believe it will be difficult to obtain <br />""II''G the right-of--way and prepare the necessary documents to utilize the F.Y. 1996 funds. On <br />°W"~ behalf of the City, we therefore request aone-year delay for funding for this project to <br />sTRUCTURaL F.Y. 1997. It is our understanding that this delay would require that right-of--way <br />suRVenNG acquisiton, permits, approval of the project memorandum, and submission of construction <br />TRAEEIC plans for MnDOT review be completed by June 1, 1997- <br />iRANSPORTATION <br />ELECTRICAUMECHANICAL This project is extremely important to the City and they have every intent on completing <br />ENGINEERING: the work. We are hopeful that you and your committee look favorably on this request for <br />evAC aone-yeaz delay.
