Re: Lofton/TH97 Project Update
Background:
Wayne Sandberg, County Engineer, previously met with the Council to discuss the addition of turn
lanes on TH 97 at this intersection. The project is partially funded by MN DOT.
Issue:
Does the City Council have any issues with the plans?
Proposal:
Cory Slagle will be at the meeting to provide the Council with an update on the Lofton Ave/TH 97
improvement project. Assuming the Council has no problem with the plans, the County has asked the
City Engineer to sign off.
Options:
1) Authorize City Engineer to Sign Construction Plans on behalf of City
2) Direct Engineer to Request Changes and then Sign Construction Plans on behalf of City
