Subsequent to the meeting, Hennepin County DOT staff have <br />made revisions to the preliminary design. The revisions do not change the overall concept of <br />the design. They do respond to citizens suggestions and concerns regarding specific details of <br />the design. The most notable change is the substantial reduction of the frontage road/cul-de-sac <br />area serving the homes on the north side of the proposed curve. A copy of the revised design <br />is attached. Hennepin County DOT staff will present the revised preliminary design at the <br />Council meeting. <br />Bike Trail <br />Hennepin County DOT staff have indicated they are willing and able to add a bike trail to the <br />roadway plans. However, due to the short time period for development of final plans, they need <br />the city to make a decision regarding the bike trail prior to the development of final plans. The <br />Council and Park Commission will discuss the bike trail issue at the October 30 work session <br />(please see the memo and materials regarding the bike trail under separate cover as part of the <br />work session agenda packet.) <br />Resolution <br />A resolution approving the preliminary layout and authorizing Hennepin County DOT to proceed <br />with the development of final plans is attached for Council consideration. The resolution also <br />authorizes the County to acquire right-of-way, permits, and easements and to ban parking on the <br />proposed roadway. <br />COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED <br />Motion to adopt a resolution approving the preliminary layout for the County Road 6 <br />reconstruction project.
