ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />MINUTES FOR SEPTEMBER 14,1998 <br />MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT CONTINUED <br />Kelley asked if the noise study will include the east and west end of Orono. <br />Moorse stated the area of study is from close to Old Crystal Bay Road North over to Greenglen Park. <br />There will be 5 noise monitors located between Old Crystal Bay Road North and Greenglen Park <br />to monitor the noise frequency of the trains as they go by. This will help in determining what type <br />of mitigation is needed for future noise/vibration levels with the new road and railroad. <br />Goetten requested an update on the County Roads Projects. <br />Gappa stated that the last of the surcharge was taken off County Road 15 today. Once the surcharge <br />is removed, they will begin to construct lanes on the north side and have the traffic shift to north side <br />before winter. They plan on working on the south side until it freezes. <br />Gappa stated the grading is done on County Road 6. Mayor Jabbour commented that the rock was <br />not down yet. They plan on paving in September, Gappa stated. <br />Kellogg reported no construction will occur on Femdale Road North this fall. The plans are to bid <br />the project in January or February 1999 so we will be ready to go once the weight restrictions are <br />off in the spring. <br />Flint asked if anything is going to happen with Hennepin Parks and the trail along County Road 6. <br />Kellogg replied that no construction is planned until spring. Gappa, Glenn Cook and Kellogg met <br />with the County to discuss concerns they had, design standards, and what can or cannot be accepted. <br />Revisions have been made and submitted to Hennepin County. <br />Kellogg reported the Heritage Drive Sev/er Project is nearly complete, paving and sodding should <br />be done in the next few weeks. The Little Orchard sewer project is nearly complete, and they are <br />going to be jacking the sewer under Old Crystal Bay Road starting tomorrow. This should only take <br />two to three days, then it will be complete. <br />Kelley questioned Gappa on the signal heads for the stop light on Old Crystal Bay Road and <br />Highway 12. <br />Gappa replied he had received quotes and needs to send them to MNDOT. The signal heads should <br />be in place by November 9, 1998. <br />Goetten questioned the status of an interim solution to the County Road 15 safety issues.
