SUMMARY O�' RECOMMENDATIONS bK � ���
Department of Public Works: CLARENCE STREET
Property Acquisifion
Report Prepazed February 22, 2008
Public Hearing May 21, 2008
PROJECT
The City of Saint Paul proposes to purchase a portion of commercial property at 1388 Maryland Avenue in
order to re-align Rose Avenue. This would create a four leg intersection with Rose Avenue, Clazence Street
and the new Cub Foods entrance/exit.
INITIATING ACTION
This project is initiated by the Department of Public Works. Currently, Rose Avenue intersects with
Prosperity Avenue which subsequently intersects with Clazence Street at a 34 degree angle. The increase in
traffic from the proposed Cub Foods driveway would add to an already confusing intersection. The proposal
is to re-align Rose Avenue to line up with the Cub Foods driveway and re-align Prosperity to intersect with
Rose creating two standazd intersections instead of one skewed intersection. (see attached map) The project
will require partial acquisition of the property at 1388 Maryland Avenue.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
This property acquisition would include about 700 sq. ft. of land adjacent to McDonalds at 1388 Maryland.
PROPOSEDIMPROVEMENTS
The Fina1 Order does not authorize construction of the re-aligned intersection, but authorizes City stafF to
proceed with acquisition ofthe necessary right-of-way. However, when the project is built, it will provide
increased safety for both pedestrian and vehicle traffic.
ALTERNATIVES
The intersection cannot be re-designed without the acquisition of additional right of way. To do nothing
would create a confusing and potentially dangerous situation.
POSITIVE BENEFITS
The City can acquire property that is mostly vacant, thereby avoiding the need to relocate an existing
business, and potentially saving acquisition costs.
ADVERSE EFFECTS
The purchase of tt�is site will require some trees and landscaping to be removed.
b�' ���
TIME SCHEDULE
The acquisition process will begin in eazly Mazch, 2008, and should be completed within 8-12 months.
Project planning, design and construction is anticipated for some time in 2008.
COSTS AND FUNDING
Costs — Public Works/Real Estate estimates the cost of acquiring this portion of properfy at 1388 Maryland
Avenue at $30,000. This amount includes purchase of the land, appraisal and closing costs.
F. undin� — The project will be funded by Minnesota State Aid funds.
