I've been asked what options are <br /> available. I have identified three: <br /> 1. �ince North Shore Drive is a county road, Hennepin County controls the number, <br /> location and size of driveways onto it. Dave Zetterstrom of the County Transportation <br /> Department indicates they would not approve two separated driveways. However they <br /> would approve two side by side driveways each wide enough for two-way traffic. To do <br /> this you w-ould need to a�ree upon the location of the driveways. You would each need a <br /> permit from Hennepin County Transportation Department for the portion of the driveway <br /> within the County right of way and a permit from the City for the portion of the driveway <br /> within the City right of way. Contact Dave Zetterstrom (612-�96-03��) for information <br /> about the county permit and me about the City permit.) <br /> 2. You could widen the existinb driveway where it enters North Shore Drive. This would <br /> require a permit from the County and the City. <br /> 3. Either or both of you could petition the City to construct Oak Place. The road would be <br /> 24 feet wide, would be centered in the right of way, and would extend to the north edge <br /> of Paula's driveway. There would be no parking allow°ed on this road and your <br /> individual driveways could be no wider than 20 when they intersected your property <br /> lines. The cost of constructing the road would the assessed to both properties and you <br /> would be expected to maintain it. You will be assessed all the administrative costs as <br /> well as actual construction costs. <br /> Telephone(9�2)249-4600 • Fax (952)249-4616 <br /> www.ci.orono.mn.us <br />
