� MINUTES OF THE <br /> ' ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br /> Monday,November 25,2013 <br /> 7:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> (3. CSAH 112 IMPROVEMENT PRO.TECT, Continued) <br /> Grube noted the trail cost for the City is $4,300 in this segment. Grube pointed out the location of the <br /> trail. <br /> McMillan stated if Long Lake agrees to the trail, she would be agreeable to it. <br /> It was the consensus of the City Council to support the trail in Segment 4 if Long Lake is agreeable to it. <br /> Grube stated he would recoxnxnend the trail to both cities since it is a very important element for the <br /> future. <br /> McMillan asked if there is a trail going east of Old Long Lake Road. <br /> Grube stated the answer is no,because once you get past that location,people will have an easier access <br /> to the trail down to the Highway 12 area. At this point, for Old Long Lake Road,the trail was originally <br /> on the south side and it was not included on the Orono side. Grube indicated it did make some sense to <br /> bring it over to Underhill and cross at that point. Grube noted the lion's share of this trail would be the <br /> responsibility of Long Lake. <br /> Grube stated it is his understanding the City Council is a no on the utility burial options and check with <br /> Long Lake on the trail. Grube asked if the Council is in favor of additional lighting and streetscape at the <br /> Luce Line Bridge. <br /> It was the consensus of the City Council to not go forward with the streetscape and lighting in the area of <br /> the Luce Line Bridge. <br /> Grube indicated he would put these options in writing and send them to the City Administrator. <br /> McMillan asked if Orono would be able to see Long Lake's comments. <br /> Grube indicated he would provide that once he receives it. Grube noted Long Lake met last week to <br /> discuss their options but has not gotten back to him at this point. <br /> Loren Schoenzeit,4480 Forest Lake Landing,asked whether the traffic control lights will be at the same <br /> quality level or more sophisticated. Schoenzeit noted the road to the school is used after hours and it is <br /> possible to miss the left turn signal which results in someone waiting there while the lights go through <br /> another cycle. Schoenzeit stated he would like to encourage Hennepin County to consider improving the <br /> quality of the traffic control signals. <br /> Schoenzeit stated when he hears no lights;he hopes that means no additional lights. Schoenzeit noted <br /> these are important intersections and they need to be lighted to some extent. <br /> Grube indicated he would agree with Mr. Schoenzeit. <br /> McMillan asked if Hennepin County would do redoing the traffic signals at the time of construction. <br /> Grube indicated they would be. <br /> Page 9 of 29 _ _ <br />
