Dear Mr. Jullie:
In response to a concern expressed by the City of Eden Prairie for some type of
dust control along Townline Road in the area immediately west of CSAH 4, a meeting
was held in my office December 15, 1975 with representatives of the cities of Eden
Prairie and Minnetonka present.
• After reviewing several alternatives the County proposed the following: Along that
portion of Townline Road between CSAH 4 and Woodland Road, the county would grade
and reshape the existing street including a revision at the intersection of CSAH 4
to eliminate the steep incline in the area of the stop sign and place a 211x22' paver
laid bituminous surface. The cities of Minnetonka and Eden Prairie would continue
to perform, as they have in the past, all routine maintenance on Townline Road between
CSAH 4 and TH 101 until the roadway is reconstructed.
This proposal will not only alleviate the dust problem but will provide a surfaced
roadway for the convenience of residents of both cities living in that area.
Our 1976 paving program has been adjusted to accommodate this project and upon re-
ceiving a resolution of agreement from both city councils we will finalize the plans.
It is anticipated, if approvals are received, this project will be completed by mid-
June 1976.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
V y truly yours,
J. M. Kirtland
Chief, Maintenance Section
