YOUR HELP IS NEEDEDI The League of Minnesota Cities (LMC)/AMM is seeking one city official to serve on the MnDOT hiring committee, which will receive bids from consult- ants interested in conducting the ramp meter study. That city official will assist MnDOT in reviewing the RFPs and make a consultant selection.

The suècessful consultant bidder is likely to conduct field tests, analyze accident reports and use MnDOT Traffic Management Center car- counting data, as well. as focus groups or telephone surveys of commut- ers and travelers. According to MnDOT, about a dozen consult- ants are interested in condLich ing the study and have until July 17 to submit bids. Éxactly how the study will proceed and what it will cost will-remain in the air until a consultant is selected, which is expected to happen by July 31. Currently, MnDOT uses the ramps to control traffic flow on about 210 miles of freeways in the Twin Cities metropolitan area. It first began rarnp meter- ing in 1969 as a way to improve freeway safety and efficiency. The study w.ill focus on the effects of meters on traffic flow and safety in selected test COrri- dors. Among factors to be exam· ined are the impacts on travel times and accident rates, as well as the effects on local streets of traffic diverted from freeways. The study will also compare the Twin Cities ramp meter system with . other metropolitan areas in the nation. , Three goals of the study, which was ordered by the legiS- lature earlier this year are; · To det~rmjne whether the benefits of metering outweigh thE costs and drawbacks. To answel this question, comparisons of traffic flow and safety will be made with the meters on and off · To describe the effect me- tering has on local streets and freeway bus routes. · To compare-Minnesota's metering system with those in other cities, describe the national trend in meter use and report the results of meter studies else- where. ~ Metropolitan Council ~ Working for the Region, Planning for the Future June 9, 2000 NANCY MANCINO, MAYOR CITY OF CHANHASSEN 6620 GALPIN BLVD EXCELSIOR, MN 55331 Dear MS MANCINO: The Metropolitan Council research staff has prepared a preliminary population and household estimate as of April 1, 1999 for your community.

Pox Properties Limited Partnership, et al. Carver County Court Pile No, C8-99-1713 Dear Virginia: Judge Isabel Gomez has scheduled a condemnation matter I have before her for a two day court trial on Tuesday, July 18 and Wednesday, July 19. We currently have half day sessions in this matter scheduled for Monday, July 17, Wednesday, July 19, and Thursday, July 20. There is certainly the possibility that my trial before Judge Gomez will either settle or possibly be completed in one day on July 18. However, at this point in time I am no longer available for hearing on Wednesday, July 19. My preference would be to still commence hearings on Monday, July 17. We can then reconvene on either Wednesday, July 19 as planned if my trial settles or on Thursday, July 20. I look forward to your response.
