MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br />MEETING HELD ON DECEMBER % 1996 <br />{U3 - County Road 6 Roadway Improvement Project - Continued) <br />McFarlane inquired about the "jog" on CoRd 6 to the Hwy 12 intersection. He was <br />informed that this stop and jog would remain until it is coordinated with the Mn/DOT <br />project on Hwy 12 and CoRd 6. McFarlane asked when this improvement will be made. <br />Callahan said the timing was hard to ascertain as the Hw>' 12 Corridor improvement is <br />slated to begin in 2001, and he did not know the location where the work would begin. <br />Callahan said Mn/DOT was not willing to reconstruct the intersection until the main <br />reconstruction began. Polaczyk indicated he was informed that the funding for the Hwy <br />12 project enabled it to begin in 2000 or 2001 for the interchange. Polaczyk said the <br />CoRd 6 project is set back far enough tc tie into it without any disruption. Callahan told <br />McFarlane that according to what Polaczyk indicated, the reconstruction of Hwy 12 <br />would begin with that intersection. <br />Callahan said it was his opinion that the preliminary layout should be approved. He does <br />feel the staking should take place at least for these two particular property owners, which <br />will enable the other residents of the subdivision to see where the road will travel. <br />Polaczyk promised the staking to be completed this week. Callahan noted that the City <br />and County have worked cooperatively together in the past. <br />Sandy Larson said she has come to terms with the road improvement happening but <br />would like to see it visually. She noted she will be losing all of her privacy. <br />Callahan moved, Goetten seconded, to adopt Resolution #3816 to approve the final plans <br />for the County Road 6 roadway project #9444, and to approve the construction <br />cooperative agreement between Hennepin County and the City of Orono for County <br />State Aid Highway No. 6 Project #9444, based on the current estimate of cost to the City <br />of Orono of $514,000. <br />Jabbour asked if the County would be mitigating some of the trees lost on Larson's <br />property by replacement. Theis said the trees would either be mitigated or compensated <br />as a part of the right-of-way costs. <br />Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 0. <br />Callahan asked Staff to ensure the staking has been completed prior to turning the signed <br />contract over to the County Jabbour asked Larson and McFarlane to report the staking <br />to the City. <br />i
