7. Update on meeting between the County Board and the Township.
Mark Daleiden said that an agreement was met with the township or at least they felt more
comfortable with moving forward. Discussed expanding the road (Briarwood Avenue), putting in
turn lanes, etc. Funding for the road improvements is yet to be determined. Tom Pawelk said that
the City and County will be funding a traffic study on Briarwood Avenue and 90th Street this
summer at peak times. From that information, we will hopefully be able to apply for the State Park
Road Account fund in November. Eventually, after that will come to an MOU for maintenance as
while it is a township road, will need to come together with all parties for maintenance. Time frame
is to complete the traffic study summer 2018, feasibility study and cost estimates for reconstruction
and design in the fall of 2018, and grant application submitted by November 1St. If a grant is
approved, construction could start in 2020. Pawelk said the township board approved moving
forward with the land alteration permit so next week will be going to the Wright County Board for
approval on the permits. Infrastructure improvements are proposed to begin in the spring of 2019.
