CITY of ORONO <br />Post Office Box 66*Crystal Bay, Minnesota 553230Muniapal Offices <br />On the North Shore of Lake Minnetonka <br />February 5, 1988 <br />Re: Highway 12 Corridor Study Meeting - February 29, 1988 <br />Orono High School <br />Attachment: A. Draft of Preliminary Highway 12 Corridor Study <br />Process <br />Dear Mayor Johnson, <br />The Orono City Council would like to invite you to attend a <br />meeting of various communities that have an interest in the <br />Highway 12 corridor from Wayzata west. Attachment A is a draft <br />of a possible selection process. The purpose of the meeting is <br />to determine how many communities and organizations are <br />interested in undertaking this study and what financial resources <br />are available for such a study. <br />The intent of the study would be to determine if Highway 12 <br />from its terminus as a six lane in Wayzata west to the Delano <br />border can meet both the current and future demands within the <br />existing corridor or if it is appropriate a new corridor be <br />designated through the official map process. If a corridor is <br />selected then each of the communities could undertake the <br />necessary official mapping and planning processes in order to <br />preserve an expanded permanent or alternate corridor. It is not <br />anticipated that this would necessarily lead to construction of a <br />new highway in the next five to ten years, but- it would preserve <br />the corridor for consideration at some future timeframe, if the <br />need so dictated. <br />The meeting will be held at the Orono High School, 195 Old <br />Crystal Bay Road North at 7:30 P.M. in the cafeteria. The Orono <br />High School is the building furthest north in the school complex <br />and the cafeteria is at the northern end of the school building. <br />BUILDING A MNIV; 4737357 • AnNIVISTRATION A FINANCF. -- 473-7358 • PUBLIC WORKS - 473-7359 <br />ASSMING <br />
