CR 50
Paving has been completed on the I-35 ramps and 175th St. This will
allow a traffic switch this coming week under the I-35 bridge to facilitate the
work necessary to complete the new westbound lanes. The switch will allow
center medians to be installed west of KenrickAve. on CR 50 to Kenyon Ave.
Work will be done under traffic and some delays may be expected.
CR 60 CLOSURE
The bypass lanes are now open on 185th St., west to Judicial Rd. Work
continues on the north half of the new 185th St. Some restrictions may occur at
adjoining intersections -Kenyon Ave., Lansford Path and Judicial Rd. - as they
are connected with 185th St. Good progress is being made during the current
weather conditions.
185fh & Dodd
Paving on Dodd Blvd. bypass lanes will be completed next week. Work on 185th has been delayed while waiting for gas main to be
relocated. Once that is done, bypass lanes will be completed on 185th St. and the remainder of the project will be done under traffic.

The project to widen 175th Street from Jonquil Ave. east to Ipava Ave. continues. Utility work has been completed and sub cutting

EAST WEST CORRIDOR
PRESERVATION STUDY PHASE II
In response to rapid population growth and land use change in the cities of Farmington, Lakeville,
and Empire Township, Dakota County is planning new east west highways to meet the expectations
of our citizens. The purpose of this newsletter is to keep you informed about the need to plan for new
east west highways, and invite you to participate in the planning .process.
STUDY BACKGROUND
The first phase of the east west transportation study was completed in May of 2003 and established
the need to plan for east west roads in these rapidly growing. communities. The purpose of this
second phase into refine the actual highway alignments. Dakota County has worked in partnership
with the cities of Farmington, Lakeville, and Empire Township to identify several proposed alignments
(see inside). These preliminary alignments are now ready for public review and comment.
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU
A good highway provides for safe and efficient transportation, but sound planning also means
balancing transportation needs with other citizen values. This study should take into account
impacts to people and the environment. Highways need to be planned with respect to existing
homes, businesses, wetlands, natural areas, and the Vermillion River and its tributaries.. Planning
for highways should also be coordinated with planning for parks, schools, trails, and development.
We invite you to an open house to review the proposed alignments and provide us with comments,
concerns, and your local knowledge of the area.

Airlake and other smaller metro airports under financial
scrutiny
Shire Kantor
Star Tribune
Published July 6, 2005
Franco Fiorillo had to make quick work: He had four airplanes to move before a team of creeping clouds
unleashed a storm.
With one of his employees and an impatient pilot, Fiorillo cleared two Cessnas and an Aerowupe from
the Airlake Airport maintenance hangar and --just before the rains came saw the gilot off in the fourth
plane, a Vulcanair.
"That was my workout for the day," Fiorillo said, sweating and smiling.
Airlake is one of six "reliever" airports used to reduce pressure on Minneapolis-St. Paul International
Airport. The Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC) is reviewing the six in hopes of making them
independently fmancially viable.
Airlake, like the other relievers, ended last year with a deficit. The MAC, which owns the airports, made
up for the difference between the $183,003 it cost Airlake to operate in 2004 and the $102,855 it
brought in.
Users, though, fmd value in the airport. Whatever the MAC decides to do with the airport, pilots and
tenants want it to remain.
Airports reviewed
"Why they're being looked at goes back quite a ways," said MAC Commissioner Jack Lanners. For
decades, the cost of renting space at the reliever airports was 2 to 5 cents per square foot per yeaz. "It
just wasn't in the real world," Lanners said. So in 1998, rates were raised for the first time since 1975.
They have gone up more since then, and are now at about 30 to 40 cents per square foot.
But, Lanners said, "we realized after looking at the rates and chazges that we really need to look at the
whole picture of the reliever system."
Commissioners decided they needed to assign a monetary value to each of the airports to determine how
much subsidy each deserves and to determine future paths for the airports. By the end of the yeaz, they
hope both questions will be answered.
Fiorillo and his son, Tony, more or less run the Lakeville airport. They own the Aircraft Resource
Center, which provides services, maintenance, fuel and supplies to the pilots who use the airport.
Fiorillo thinks he's got an answer for Airlake: He wants to invest in it by adding a 100- by 100-foot
executive hangar, extending the 4,098 foot east-west runway to 5,000 feet to accommodate larger
planes, revamping the terminal and seeing a tabled MAC project to build 60 to 80 hangars to fruition.

"It's going to mean a whole lot to the community because it's going to be their gateway to business
development," Fiorillo said.
Proven advantage
Lakeville's Chamber of Commerce executive director, Todd Bornhauser, said the airport is an asset: "It
does offer you that opportunity to fly in and out a lot more quickly than MSP."
And community development director Dave Olson said Airlake is "a distinct advantage or positive for tis
when we are looked at as a location to expand or locate," he said. "We certainly would hate to see it go
away."
For now, commissioners are not recommending closing any of the reliever airports, though the option is
not off the table, either. The. MAC has ranked three airports as being more likely to provide direct relief
to MSP. None of those three is Airlake.
Fiorillo, though, sees it another way: Airlake is out of the crowded perimeter of airspace that Flying
Clotul, St. Paull downtown and Anoka CotntyBlaine airports the three top reliever airports for jet
traffic share.
"There's little congestion out here, 20 miles out," Fiorillo said. People can fly in to Airlake, he said, and
drive along Cedar Avenue to get to the Twin Cities in 20 minutes.
Just about four months into seriously studying the future of the reliever airports, the MAC is still
considering its options for Airlake's development, said Tim Anderson, deputy executive director of
operations at the MAC. But the possibilities for Airlake as a general aviation airport or other purposes
could be great, especially given the city's enthusiasm: "Airlake is more well-received by the city of
Lakeville than Crystal is by its surrounding community, for example," he said.
It's not just the business community and city interest that are a boon to Airlake.
Airlake currently has about 981essees and two-thirds of its hangar space is rented by recreational pilots.
About 200 people are on a waiting list to rent hangar space .
Lakeville resident Dale Erickson belongs to two flying clubs stationed at Airlake. He has his pick of five
planes on most days.
"Airlake's a really nice airport to fly out of," he said. "It's quiet; learning to fly is not intimidating. We're
lucky to have it."

Lakeville makes plans for downtown
Shira Kantor
Staz Tribune
Published July 6, 2005
Downtown Lakeville is poised for an expansion, much to business owners' delight.
Lakeville plans to hire a consultant to help with the details: where to expand, what types of buildings to
build. The city hopes to have the consultant working by August, said David Olson, the community and
economic development director.
Downtown Lakeville is fairly small a north-south stretch of about six blocks of Holyoke Avenue, plus
about one block on either side of the street.
"If the central business district azea is to expand and grow, which direction? And should it be to the
north toward Heritage Commons? Because there are several blocks of residential in between," Olson
said. "Those are issues."
Rezoning is a possibility, he said. Decisions should come in six to nine months, when the studying and
planning phase will probably come to a close, Olson said.
Though Olson said the city has not determined the number of dollars that downtown businesses generate
for the local economy, it is a successful business district. Expanding it would help ensure its continued
viability, he said.
"There azen't many vacancies downtown," Olson said. "That's an indication there is a mazket for and
demand for space downtown."
Plus, he said, the planned expansion "has other important aspects to it besides being just purely
economic." Downtown Lakeville is home to some of the oldest buildings in the city. Historic
preservation is important, as is keeping a community gathering place intact, he said.
A business owner agreed: Tracy Kuper, owner of Mainstreet Coffee Cafe, said she would welcome an
expansion, even if it meant competition for her coffee shop.
"It's a precious little place," Kuper said. "Yes, it needs to grow. How much it needs to grow, I'm not
sure."
But Kuper said she wants to see downtown retain its down-home feeling: "The world is crazy busy, so if
you have a little niche that kind of brings you back to some place comfortable and close and safe, that's
really nice."
