Background/Discussion During the City Council meeting on July 15, 2019, a resident speaking at open mic requested the connection of Lincoln Street in Sunset Ridge be opened in order to allow residents of Miske Meadows better access during the current roundabout project that is under construction at CSAR 13 and CR 40. The physical connection is in place but the connection is barricaded to close access based on the direction established when approvals of Miske Meadows 4'h addition were considered on February 20, 2018. The minutes from the meeting reflected the direction of"leaving the barricade at least until the Twin Lakes Corridor study had been completed." Attached is the relevant section of the CSAR 13 Corridor Study relating to the intersection of CSAR 13 and Lincoln Street.

Background/Discussion The updated preliminary plat of Miske Meadows was approved on January 16, 2018, and included a total of 385 buildable parcels. To date, 105 parcels have been final platted, and the current proposal plats another 72 single-family lots and one outlot which will include a drainage pond maintained by the city. The proposal also extends Johnson Street south from River Park Third Addition and completes the loop between Hoover and Edison Streets. The connection to Sunset Ridge via Lincoln Street is planned as part of the public improvements with Miske Meadows Fourth Addition. Current plans and staff comments to the developer include removal of N:\Departments\Community Development\Planning\Case Files\P\P 18-02 Miske Meadows 4th - Paxmar\5-City Council\8.1 sr Miske 4th - Final.docx the cul-de-sac at the end of Lincoln Street and constructing the roadway connection to city standard. A sidewalk along the north side of Lincoln Street to the current construction limits is also included. Sunset Ridge Connection The right-of-way for the extension of Lincoln Street was included with the plat of Sunset Ridge and the connection has always been planned. Staff recommends fully constructing the extension and leaving the roadway open for use by the public. If the connection is not completed as part of this subdivision, future construction costs will be assessed to the adjacent property owners. If the Council desires, breakaway barriers or other access control measures could be used to delay use by the public. Sherburne County began the Twin Lakes Road Corridor study and the city informed them of the safety concerns with the intersection of Lincoln and Twin Lakes Road. This study will help determine the best solution for addressing the safety concerns of residents in the Sunset Ridge development.

It is strongly believed that the improvements listed in this document will be appropriate following the completion of the TH 169 improvements. Segment Improvements The following table summarizes the segment improvements as recommended in this study. The following pages illustrate the improvements listed in the table and provide summary information for each. Segment Existing Section Proposed Section North Two-lane undivided, rural section, with select turn lanes Super two: two-lane rural section with four-foot painted median including rumble/mumble strips in center and along shoulder. 11' drive lanes.

To address these issues, two typical roadway sections were explored: a three-lane section with center left turn lane (CLTL) and a two-lane section with raised median and dedicated turn-lanes where warranted. Three-Lane Typical Section The following improvements will be included with this typical section: • 11-foot drive lanes • Center left turn lane throughout segment • Both rural or urban sections are viable alternatives for this improvement. • A rural section, without curb and gutter, is generally less costly than an urban section. Eliminating curb and gutter will, however necessitate a wider buffer (24- 34-feet) between the roadway and trail, requiring a wider right-of-way and potentially higher cost. • An urban section, with curb and gutter, will be more costly, but will allow for a tighter right-of-way. An urban section from 181st (CSAH 12) to Tyler St. would be appropriate and recommended to extend the character from the south segment and to support a trail on the east side and sidewalk on the west side of TLR while managing right-of-way impacts. • 10- to 35-foot boulevard on east side (urban to rural section respectively) • Extend 10’ trail from Trott Brook Pkwy to Cleveland Rd (CR 40) • Extend sidewalk on east side north to 187 th Ave NW in the near term. A long term connection could be made to 193rd Ave NW via Tyler St NW as development occurs. Anticipated Outcomes This typical section is expected to provide the following outcomes: • Narrower lanes create a sense of a tighter corridor to aid in slowing vehicle speeds • Remove turning vehicles from the through-lane will improve corridor drive time and is anticipated to reduce or eliminate illegal bypassing. • A CLTL will also create a reaction zone between the travel lanes • Extending the trail to Cleveland road along with the sidewalk connections will provide a missing connection in the non- motorized network. 69’ Right-of-Way 10’ Trail10’ Blvd.11’ Drive Lane11’ Drive Lane 12’ Center Left Turn Lane 2’ Clr.3’ Clr. 4’Shld.4’ Shld.

Anticipated Outcomes This typical section is expected to provide the following outcomes: • Narrower lanes create a sense of a tighter corridor to aid in slowing vehicle speeds • Remove turning vehicles from the through-lane will improve corridor drive time and is anticipated to reduce or eliminate illegal bypassing. • The center median will continue the character of the south segment north to Cleveland Rd • Extending the trail to Cleveland road along with the sidewalk connections will provide a missing connection in the non- motorized network. Recommended Typical Section The three-lane section along this segment is recommended because it will be more economical to implement and is anticipated to have fewer impacts with its slightly narrower cross section.

Their thoughts are to make the connection to Twin Lakes Rd as difficult as possible to discourage Miske traffic in hopes to decrease traffic. If they can get the city to close or alter the Lincoln/Twin Lakes Rd intersection, they achieve their goal and divert some or all traffic down Kennedy Street. I have talked to a few people from the County and Bolton- Menk and have been told there are numerous things that can be done to improve Lincoln/TLP intersection. Sight lines to the south would greatly be improved by cutting branches that overhang into the ditch. Isn't this in the roads' right-of-way and could easily be cut? I know utility companies cut tree branches that interfere with power/phone lines and the city cut branches off trees on my land, that were overhanging Kennedy Street a few years ago. Couldn't this be done? Disclaimer Information submitted is considered public data.

I hear you are assisting Lincoln St residents desire to not have the street opened up from Miske Meadows. The limited visibility at the corner is a serious issue and more traffic will simply mean more serious accidents. Our son attends Spectrum Middle School and could be transported to school by bus. The bus stop would be at the intersection of Twin Lakes and Lincoln St. The bus company assures me that with the flashing lights and a sign posted that there is a bus stop people will be cautious and stop. I can tell you that at least once a week while I am in the turn lane, 1 and have signaled in advance, I am pushed onto the shoulder by a car speeding around the corner that does not see me and has moved into my lane . The school bus would be hit, before it was seen. For the safety of my son and every other child on that bus, we drive him to and from school. I can not be at the meeting to share my concerns,l have a conflicting meeting to attend. Please share if helpful. Disclaimer Information submitted is considered public data.
