The intent � <br /> of the City Council is to accommodate any new traffic <br /> flow in the safest manner possible, with the least adverse <br /> effect on the immediate neighborhood, and on the public <br /> generally. <br /> 9) The existing neighborhood has existing traffic problems <br /> caused by: <br /> a) IVarrow streets, especially Blaine Avenue and � <br /> Navarre Lane. <br /> b) Poor intersections, especially Blaine at Crystal <br /> Place, Crystal Place at Shadywood, Lyric at <br /> . Navarre Avenue and Blaine at County Road 15. <br /> c) Excess through traffic on Northern Avenue and <br /> • Crystal Place, especially during plant shift <br /> changes in Spring Park. <br /> d) Heavy traffic flows and too many unplanned or <br /> marginal intersections and curb cuts on County <br /> Road 15: ' <br /> 10) There is no point within this proposed plat where a good <br /> intersection onto County Road 15 can be developed. The „ <br /> best available location has less desireable sight distance <br /> characteristics than does the Blaine Avenue intersection � � <br /> according to Hennepin County Department of Transportation <br /> and City staff reports. <br /> 11) Traffic forecasts indicate about 70-80i of the new trips <br /> generated by this development wi11 eventually travel <br /> east of Navarre on County Road 15. There are three <br /> recommended routes for this traffic: <br /> a) A new intersection on County. Road 15 west of <br /> this property. <br /> b) Improved intersection on County Road l.5 at <br /> Blaine Avenue, with Blaine Avenue widened <br /> between Crystal Place and County Road 15. <br /> � <br /> Page 5 of 17 <br />
