MOTION BY Soderberg SECONDED BY Fogarty
• RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, the City Councils and staff representatives of the cities of Lakeville and
Farmington have reviewed the proposed Corridors B, C, D, E identified in the Dakota County
East West Corridor Study located in the cities of Lakeville and Farmington during a joint meeting
held on March 10, 2003; and
WHEREAS, the cities of Lakeville and Farmington have concluded that the proposed
corridors B, C, D, E are generally consistent with: their respective Transportation or
Thoroughfare Plans for the cities of Lakeville and Farmington; and
WHEREAS, the cities of Lakeville and Farmington further support the following positions
or clarifications regarding the proposed corridors:
Corridor B
The City of Lakeville does not support the extension of Corridor B east of the Lakeville
City Limits until the mining activities in Lakeville and the adjacent areas in Empire Township
have been completed.
Based on the County's 2025 Traffic Forecasts, Corridor B would appear to be more
appropriately classified as a Major Collector rather than a Minor Arterial and thus 100 feet of
proposed right-of-way. plus additional 10 foot trail easements from Cedar Avenue to Pilot Knob
• Road would be sufficient.
The City of Lakeville would consider acceptance of the turn-back of Dodd Boulevard
from Cedar Avenue to Pilot Knob Road contingent on it being upgraded to a three-lane roadway
from Gerdine Avenue to Pilot Knob Road.
The City of Farmington asserts the necessity of several future connections from
developments in the City of Farmington through Lakeville to Corridor B.
Corridor C
The cities of Lakeville and Farmington support the potential designation of Corridor C as
a Minor Arterial and with a -four-lane divided roadway design and. concur that the transition of the
alignment of the Corridor C alignment at 185th Street on the east to 195th Street should occur in
the area identified as the Study .Area on the Lakeville / Farmington -Work Session -Planned
Land Use Map.
Corridor D
The cities of Lakeville-and Farmington support the potential future designation of
Corridor D as a Collector and acknowledge that. this corridor would remain a city street in both
cities.
Corridor E
The cities of Lakeville. and Farmington support the Corridor E (Ash Street) alignment to
• be constructed as a three-lane roadway between Denmark and TH 3 as an interim design until
such time that traffic volumes indicate the necessity of four lanes and Dakota County programs
further improvements to the roadway. Further the cities of Lakeville and Farmington support
long-range consideration of the designation of Corridor E as an Arterial
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lakeville City Council and Farmington
City Council support the Dakota County East-West .Corridor Study as prepared subject to the
positions and clarifications contained in this resolution.
