RE: 6 May CouncilMtg & Stillwater Summer Shakespeare
Dear Diane & City~ouncil:
At the recommendation of Mayor Jay Kimble, I am requesting an opportunity 10 appear
at your City Council meeting for Tuesday May 6th at 4:30pm to outline a proposed
season for Stillwater Summer Shakespeare in Pioneer Park to beginAugust6th 2003, The
play is free to the public and will be Shakespeare's comedy "A Midsummer Night's
Dream." I am seeking the Co-. Sponsorship ofthe City of Stillwater along with the
ArtReach Alliance, Chamber of Commerce and Friends of Stillwater Par/cs.. This would
be a class/production of The Globe Academy of Performing Arts~nder my <:lirectipn,
In seeking the Co-Sponsorship of the City, I wish to be clear that it is not a financial
commitment that is sought at this time, but rather a discussion on ways that the City may
provide in-kind support to hopefully develop a long-term relationshipJor this and future
Globe activities to enhance the community, (Our professional travelingproductiori, Bard
in a Box, performed last Summer at the Stillwater CourtHouse,)
Briefly, I am the Exec, Artistic Director of The Globe of America. (which includes the. '
Globe Performing Arts Academy), I have some 35 years in the professional theatre ,world
in England, Canada and the U. S" and was Founder/Producer, of the Awar~-winriing
CalifomiaShakespeareanFestival from 1976;. 81. The Globe Ac~demyiscurrently'
underway with a class called Speaking &Acting Shakespeare utilizing our partnership
with Circus Juventas in StPaul. The second class/production will begin on June 16th and
will be ready to perform in Stillwater on the date given above. Our needs will-require the
use of the bandshell, electrical hookups for lights & sound and permission to park atIeast
one (possibly 2) construction-type trailers behind the shell for dressingareas;costwnes
and prop storage, etc, The Park Board met on Monday 28 April and approved our use of
the Park with certain provisos which we are exploring.
I look forward to appearing and explaining what this program mi~tcontribute to the
enrichment of the Community of Stillwater and the greater St Croix River Valley.

Dear Mr. Fox.Brenton,
Thank you so much for the opportunity to meet and discuss your upcoming
Shakespeare in Stillwater project. What a great opportunity for our community!
Although our budget is set for 2003, please know that we are supporting your project
in whatever way possible. Based on our positive experience with Bard in a Box last
summer at the Courthouse, we are anticipating another high-quality, artistically
challenging experience for Washington County, and are pleased that you are '
considering a 'traveling' format to include Southern Washington County.
Please let us know how we can continue to be of assistance as you move forward
with your plans.

Dear Mr. Fox-Brenton,
We certainly enjoyed meeting with you and leaming about your plans
to produce a Stillwater Summer Shakespeare in Pioneer Park this
August.
Your experience and enthusiasm, matched wrtha quality production
like we saw in Bard in a Box 'ast summer at the Historic Courthouse;
makes us thrilled about your bringing Shakespeare to Stillwater this
summer,
.
Friends of Stillwater Parks thoroughly supports projo""l~ like yours that
make use of our beautiful parks and amenities (like the bands hell).
involve local residents, and enrich our lives with outstanding artistic
experiences. Since the loss of the small theater in the Grand Garage
several yeal'$ ago,StiIJwater has it 16. ~e, obvious void in the area of
theatrical expression. Nearby communities like Hudson, Osceola, and
St Croix Falls support local playhouses and benefrt greatly because of
them. We strongly believe, It's time Stillwater supported a community
effort to bring the theater back to this city.
Please let us know how we can help to support your project and bring
Shakespeare to Stiftweter!

I am delighted to bring David Fox.Benton to
your attention.
Two years ago I saw David act in a production
of Shaw's DON JUAN IN HELL. He was eloquent
and exciting, an outstanding performance.
Last year I was seeking the best course in
the acting of Shakespeare that I could find.
I found it right in the Los Angeles area in
David's Shakespe~re class for professional
actors. He wa~,extremely effective as a
teacher and profoundly knowledgeable in the
area of Shakespeare and Elizabethan England.
His infectious enthusiasm made each class a
delight.
In my opinion, David, the actor/teacher, has
clearly set a professional excellence for all
of us. His talent, his demeanor, his grace
and indefatigable industry are a credit to
those privileged to know him.
I recommend David Fox-Benton with enthusiasm.

Dear City CouncIl:
I have Just read the artIcle In CIty Buslne~s. bV DomInic P. Papatola,
regarding the Grain Belt Brewery and David Fox-Brenton. I am fascinated
by the proposal and excited tor DavId. He Just fInIshed dIrectIng our
school musIcal.
I want you to know how very impressed wIth David Fox-Brenton we are, and
how pleased we have been wIth hIs work. David contacted me In September
after haVing heard that we needed a dIrector for our Fall musIcal. He .
took on the task, accepted the schedule and opened November 9, 1989,
with an adaptation of Grease. There were six performances and the
prOduction was a huge success. We broke all box office records.
David worked patiently with our students and complImented his teaching
with several professionals to assist him. The students all felt that
they had learned a great deal. One of our classroom teachers who was
associated with the project, told me, 'DavId Fox-Brenton was a wonderful
teacher and our students gaIned so much from him.' OSStO Senior High
School certainly benefItted from the assocIation.
The production was so successful and our students gaIned so much from
David that I have asked him to dO the musIcal In 1990. I want to
continue to provide quality teachIng in drama for our students.
I do hope that YOU will give hIs proposal every possIble consideratIon.
If you want a proJect carried out, then you have the right man In David
Fox-Brenton.
SIncerely,

Design Plan for Downtown Stillwater North Main Street Housing Infill and
Pedestrian Connection Project
Purpose: Request authorization to obtain design services proposal for preparation of plans and
feasibility information for Downtown Stillwater North Main Street Housing Infill and Pedestrian
Connection Project.
.
Background: For the past two years, staff has worked with the developers ofthe Territorial Prison
Site, Lofts of Stillwater site, and representatives of the Burlington Northern Railroad on development of
the housing infill sites and purchase of the remaining railroad right of way. At this time, the Lofts project
is scheduled to begin construction in July, the Terra Springs site work and residential developments is
scheduled for construction this Summer and Fall and the railroad right of way is being purchased.
Attached to this memo is the design concept for the Stillwater North Main Street Housing Infill and
Pedestrian Connection Project. Last year, the city applied for a Livable Communities Grant from the
Met council for $2 million to assist with project construction (summary application attached).
In order to proceed with the design development ofthe pedestrian trail, Main Street Plaza, Lowell Park
connection and Levee Wal1/Parking structure, additional design development and feasability analysis is
necessary. (This Master Plan approach was used with Lowell Park and Levee Wall improvements.)
With the plans, the city is in a position to coordinate adjacent and related development such as the Loft
project or levee flood wall construction with the design develvpUlent master plan. It is estimated that
such a plan would cost approximately $50,000 and can be funded with TIP District 10 proceeds. The
master plan would be completed in time to supplement this years Met Council Livable Communities
application.
, With this approval, staff would obtain a proposal for the design development/feasability work and
return to the Council for fInal funding approval.
.
Recommendation: Authorization to obtain proposal for Stillwater North Main Street Housing Infill
and Pedestrian Connection Project.

How will funded component(s) be a catalyst?
Limit 10 lines
The crucial public elements (Le. the public interpretive trails, transit hub, sidewalk improvements, central .
plaza and parking structure) would not be constructed without the Grant. Other sources of funds to assist
with project costs include tax base revitalization or TIP Funds. The proposed project would be a catalyst
to development of the housing sites but also augment and link the housing to downtown,job, transit and
recreation opportunities. The success of the private and public components will help spur further infill
development on the north end of town, providing the diversity ofland uses needed to sustain Stillwater as
an independent, walkable historic small town.
C. Timing: Describe any time constraints relating to funding sources or use of LCDA funding.
Limit 10 lines
The project would be constructed during the 2003-2004 construction seasons. The improvements would
be coordinated with adjacent housing develv}lUlents at the Territorial Prison site and the Lofts site.
Purchase of the railroad right'of way would allow for an enhanced pedestrian corridor between housing
sites and the downtown. If LCDA funds are provided in two phases, the schedule would be extended by

Subject: Stop Sign Report
DISCUSSION
.
Attached is a copy of report prepared by Glen VanWormer of SEH concerning stop signs
throughout the City of Stillwater. The report includes a discussion of the purpose and
problems with stop sign installation. It discusses the jurisdictional responsibilities of
Stillwater and other government entities and it goes through the entire Stillwater system and
examines each stop sign and it's validity. At the end of the report, recommendations are
provided for where new stop signs should be added, where a change in signage is suggested,
where stop signs should be removed, and it also discusses some specific requests for stop
signs at certain intersections throughout town. Finally the report provides a sample
evaluation form for determining appropriateness for new stop signs and provides maps of
the system and stop signs throughout town.
)
This report was commissioned by the City Council a year ago. It provides an exhaustive
account of all of the controls at intersections throughout town. The not to exceed figure for
this report was $2,500. I believe the City of Stillwater received a real bargain considering
the information included.
The most important items for Council to review and comprehend include the purpose,
problems and requirements for stop installation as well as the recommended changes
throughout town. New stop sign installations are received on a regular basis throughout
Stillwater. Many people have the misconception that installation of stop signs will make
their neighborhood safer or slow down traffic. When we think about our stop signs as part
of a greater traffic control system, these assumptions held by many people are often found
incorrect.
.
The areas where intersections do not have stop signs often see the lowest overall speeds in
their neighborhood. This is because drivers have to slow down and proceed through every
intersection with some caution. Installation of stop signs into neighborhoods that have
uncontrolled intersections often leads to confusion and reduces the safety of the
neighborhood. Therefore, it is highly advantageous that we use a systematic approach in
installing stop signs throughout town.
As this study shows: there are a number of locations throughout town where stop signs
could/should be removed. Many times, stop signs are installed at locations that really do
not require them. These are some of the signs that are listed under the category of Do Not
Replace (Section 5.5). In addition there are certain stop signs that are confusing, create
problems, or get little respect due to their inappropriate position. These ones should be
May 1, 2003
removed as well (Section 5.3). In addition to the removals there is also discussion under
Section 5.1 where stop signs should be added or changed.
Given the fact that stop signs are often put in for political purposes, over the course of75
years or more the city intersection control system around town has in some ways
degenerated and should be revamped. The attached study provides a guide plan for how to
accomplish this.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council carefully review the attached stop sign report, adopt the
recommendations and direct staff to explore approaches for altering the stop sign system
currently in place as per the plan.
ACTION REOUIRED
If Council concurs with staff recommendations council should pass a resolution accepting
the attached stop sign report and directing staff to commence with implementation of
recommendations.

Mr. Klayton Eckles, PE
City Engineer
City of Stillwater
216 N. 4th Street
Stillwater, MN 55082-4807
Dear Klayton:
Enclosed are 25 copies of the Stop Signs Report prepared by SEH, The report has been reviewed in
detail by both the City of Stillwater and SEH staff. The report includes the maps prepared by the
City of Stillwater.
The report is based on studies of stop signs in numerous commumtIes, on years on traffic
engineering experience in the City of Stillwater, and on hours and hours of observation at specific
intersections as part of this specific study, It represents the best effort to provide an orderly and
systematic yet safe system of stop signs within the City of Stillwater. The report calls for adding
stop signs, primarily for consistency along specific streets, as well as removal of stop signs at
locations where there is insufficient traffic to warrant respect from motorists, Removal of these stop
signs should be done very carefully, There is also a category of recommendations for further
removal of stop signs that have little value in terms of traffic control or safety and the replacement
and continual maintenance is not justified.
The report meets it intended purpose of providing documentation for systematic control of traffic
within the City. If you need further assistance in the implementation of the recommendations, we
would gladly provide that. If you have questions or any comments, please call our office.
Sincerely,
~~uJ~

Stop Signs Report
Prepared for Stillwater, Minnesota
1.0 Background
The City of Stillwater, like most other cOmmUnIties, continually
receives requests to install stop signs to control traffic, slow traffic, or
provide additional safety for children. Approximately 10 years ago, the
City had an inventory of all stop signs made. When the inventory was
displayed on a map, it showed a significant number of stop signs
already inplace at intersections throughout the City, Observations of
several intersections with low volumes and stop sign control showed
high incidents of stop sign violations, Traffic patterns in Stillwater,
while reasonably consistent, have changed at some intersections, but
the traffic controls remain based on previous patterns.
Because of this, the City requested a complete inventory of all stop
signs within the City and recommendations for additions or removals
where necessary. The City staff had an existing stop sign inventory
that needed to be field reviewed and a final check made of the
locations. Traffic volumes were also provided where available.
All streets within the City were reviewed on at least two occasions,
Many have previously been studied in some detail or were on routes or
in neighborhoods frequently traveled by the reviewing team. Traffic
patterns were reviewed and discussions held with staff relative to the
past reasoning behind stop signs installations at particular
intersections, Intersections that recently received requests for stop
signs were also reviewed in more detail.
The following report summarizes the information collected, the
recommendations being made, and provides information relative to
numerous intersections. It also provides background information on
stop signs in general and should serve as a guide for further
consideration of stop signs within the City of Stillwater.

Stop Signs Report
Stillwater, Minnesota
2.0 Purpose and General Information
2.1 Purpose
Stop signs are intended for use where traffic is required to stop. They
are designed to control traffic approaching an intersection. Minnesota
State Statutes indicate that the driver of a vehicle shall stop in
obedience to a stop sign and "shall proceed cautiously, yielding to
vehicles not so obliged to stop which are within the intersection or
approaching so closely as they constitute an immediate hazard, but
then may proceed."
Most motorists who are approaching a busy intersection and face a
stop sign will come to a complete stop and will follow the language
and intent of the law. These motorists will also stop at the same
intersection when traffic volumes are relatively low, recognizing that
there was a purpose behind the stop sign. However, motorists
approaching a very low volume intersection at which they seldom see
any traffic are more likely not to stop at it. Because of this
phenomenon, the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control
Devices (MMUTCD) has developed a series of warrants for stop sign
installation. These warrants provide guidelines for the installation of
the stop sign so that they may be consistent in use throughout the
United States, and motorists will have confidence that the stop sign
was installed for good reason and should be adhered to.
When stop signs are installed consistent with the MMUTCD, they
generally are effective traffic control devices getting reasonable
respect from motorists. They help define through streets or provide
order and assign right-of-way at an intersection, They are not,
however, needed at every intersection to control traffic.
Stop signs should be installed as needed and justified at intersections,
but as part of a system. An overall system of stop signs will not only
designate through streets, but provide consistency and create positive
driver expectancy. Motorists will appreciate the benefits and safety
provided by a well-designed system of traffic controls, such as stop
signs, at intersections within a City. Similarly, motorists will give
more respect to all stop signs when they understand all stop signs have
been placed for a justified reason and purpose, and there is consistency
throughout the City,
2.2 Problems with Stop Signs
Most communities receive requests for stop signs for many reasons.
Many of the requests for stop signs have been a result of desires of
people to divert or slow traffic. It seems relatively easy and
inexpensive; unwanted traffic can be discouraged from using the
street, and speeds can be controlled by simply installing a stop sign.
However, complaints from individuals are also received that stop signs
A-STILL0201,OO

are being violated by motorists on a regular basis. Observations by law
enforcement and transportation officials seem to agree that red light
running and stop sign violations have significantly increased in
Minnesota in the past several years.
There have been a number of studies made in Minnesota and other
states of stop signs installed for the purpose of speed control and
traffic diversion. These studies generally do not support the commonly
held beliefs of the effectiveness of stop signs installed for these
purposes. Studies have shown that too many stop signs and/or
unwarranted stop signs create a host of undesirable traffic safety
conditions.
Speeds are not reduced by stop sign installation, Studies have shown
that speeds can actually increase between stop signs, up to 3 to 5 mph
faster, Some motorists are initated by the installation of these "speed
control stop signs" and develop a tendency to make up for lost time by
over-accelerating or traveling at higher speeds. Other law abiding
citizens unintentionally over accelerate and adjust their speeds later,
generally decreasing them to approach the 30 mph speed limit in
Minnesota urban areas,
Diversion of traffic is not often achieved by stop sign use, Most of the
traffic on the street is there by choice, and installation of a stop sign
will not cause the traffic to reroute itself. This is especially true on
collector streets that are designated to move volumes of traffic within a
residential area. While stop signs may in some instances divert a small
amount of traffic, the diverted traffic may simply choose a different
residential street.
The effectiveness of stop signs is much lower than most people
believe. Often times, motorists will slow, quickly glance around for
traffic, and then proceed through the stop sign at any location with
lower volume traffic. At unwarranted stop signs, where motorists are
not certain why the sign has been installed, the compliance is relatively
poor. A National Transportation Engineering Association study
indicated that 40 to 50 percent of motorists will only make a rolling
stop, and of the remainder, more do not stop at all than make full legal
stops,
Observations throughout Minnesota have shown the violations at a
lesser rate, but nonetheless with a higher percentage of violators at
stop signs installed for speed control purposes. This seems to be
especially true at intersections with four-way stop controls installed
with a very high percentage of traffic on the major street. Another
observation is that many of the violators of the stops signs live in or
near the neighborhood in which it is installed.

These problems lead to another concern. Installation of a stop sign
may lead to a false sense of security if neighborhood residents believe
that child safety has been improved. Since many stop sign violators
merely give "glance and go" review of the intersection, a small
pedestrian could be overlooked, especially if the motorist is turning at
the intersection, or the pedestrian is entering the intersection quickly
without looking, assuming traffic will stop,
Installing stop signs at an unwarranted location creates a traffic
environment where accidents are more likely to occur. National studies
have shown that accident rates have actually increased at intersections
where stop signs have been installed without meeting warrants or
where circumstances did not justify the installation, Reasons for this
include drivers ignoring what they perceive to be an unnecessary
impediment to their travel, too many stop signs along the roadway, or
pedestrians believing that vehicles will stop at a stop sign. Stop signs,
therefore, should not be viewed as a cure-all for solving traffic safety
related problems at an intersection or in a neighborhood.
This is not to say stop signs are bad or unsafe. Properly installed at a
justified location, the stop signs will provide assignment of right-of-
way to motorists or at a multi-way stop, provide for alternating right-
of-way. Many of the stop signs in Stillwater are beneficial to the safety
and control of motorists and pedestrians,
There is concern by some that an intersection without traffic control is
inherently dangerous. They visualize motorists approaching the
intersection without slowing or checking the cross street for traffic and
then colliding in the intersection. Observations show that the opposite
is more likely to occur, Motorists aware of no traffic control at an
intersection will approach with more caution and awareness.
Once some motorists observe stop signs on the cross street of a
regularly driven street, they tend to assume all cross traffic will
actually stop at the sign, and the motorist will pay less attention to
cross street traffic potential. Thus, there is also a concern over
inconsistency of stop sign placement. Motorists driving along a street
with cross traffic facing stop signs at some intersections tend to
assume all intersections on that street will be similarly controlled and
drive with less concern for cross traffic at intersections. Intersections
should not be judged independently in reviewing stop sign needs,
For these many reasons, many local street intersections will operate
better and safer without stop sign control on any approach. Installation
of a stop sign should only be done after careful study.

2.3 Requirements for Installation
The new MMUTCD indicates that stop signs should not be used unless
engineering judgment indicates that one or more of the following
conditions exist:
1. Intersection of a less important road with a main road where
application of the normal right-of-way rule would not be expected
to provide reasonable safe operation
2, Street entering a through highway or street
3. Unsignalized intersection in signalized area
4. High speeds, restricted view, or crash records that indicate a need
for control by the stop sign '
Warrants for multi-way stop applications are more specific and require
specific numbers of reported crashes and minimum vehicular volumes.
The MMUTCD does provide for criteria to be considered in an
engineering study again with specific guidelines. There have been,
unfortunately, reports of serious accidents occurring at four-way stop
sign controlled intersections where both motorists involved in the
crash violated the stop sign,
Intersections should not be considered independently from each other,
but instead should be considered as part of an overall system.
Establishment of through streets justifies stop signs along major
roadways. However, stopping leads to less overall respect for stop
signs. Observations on a 10 block street which had 5 stop signs
installed showed that the violation rate increased as motorists
proceeded through the intersections. Thus, the need to carefully
consider the frequency, as well as the location of stop signs, is critical.
3.0 Jurisdiction
Responsibility for determination of traffic controls at an intersection
usually belongs to the higher level road authority. An intersection of a
Minnesota Trunk Highway and a city street, such as Trunk
Highway 95 and Myrtle Street, is the responsibility of Minnesota
Department of Transportation (MnlDOT). Similarly, an intersection
between a Minnesota Trunk Highway and a county road, such as
Trunk Highway 96 and County Road 5, is the responsibility of
MnlDOT, For the intersection of a county road and a city street, such
as County Road 5 and Curve Crest Boulevard, the responsibility is
Washington County's.
Determination of the type of traffic control, such as a traffic signal or
four-way stop sign control, rests with the higher authority. This means,
Mn/DOT, as an example, is responsible for the installation of traffic
signals, four-way stop controls, or four-way flashers at an intersection
on a trunk highway, It also means that Mn/DOT is responsible for

traffic controls on the side streets, such as a stop sign at an
intersection. An example is that MnlDOT is responsible for the stop
signs on Commercial Street at Trunk Highway 95.
If the City of Stillwater desires a change in the traffic controls at one
of these intersections controlled by either MnlDOT or Washington
County, the City must make a request to that authority for them to
consider and then install, if justified, the controls.
MnIDOT, and/or Washington County, at their respective intersections
has full responsibility for the stop sign on a cross street. This means
that they must install the sign at its proper location and meet all
standards of installation contained in the MMUTCD, It also means that
they must also maintain the sign and take care of replacement because
of age or replacement because of knock down or vandalism. Finally, it
is their technical responsibility to maintain sight distance to signs at
the intersection. This obviously requires some coordination with the
local authorities since some of the impacts may be caused by obstacles
within the cross street right-of-way,
4.0 Stillwater System
4.1 State Highways
MnlDOT has three state highways within the City of Stillwater; Trunk
Highway 36, Trunk Highway 95, and Trunk Highway 96. As expected,
MnlDOT has designated the trunk highway as the through street and
the cross streets are to stop except where Mn/DOT has authorized and
installed a traffic signal or four-way stop condition, Because trunk
highways generally carry a higher volume of traffic and usually traffic
with longer trip purposes, stopping trunk highway traffic creates
concerns of overall safety, delay, and efficiency. MnlDOT does adhere
strongly to the warrants contained in the MMUTCD for traffic signal
and four-way stop sign installations. For each intersection where
MnlDOT has installed signing, they have traffic control orders
establishing the legality of the signs installed.
MnlDOT also controls the Trunk Highway 36 frontage road
intersections in Stillwater. These include the full intersections at
Washington A venue and at Greeley Street, as well as the
T -intersections with Northwestern A venue, Industrial Boulevard, and
Tuenge Drive. This means that MnlDOT maintains the stop signs on
the frontage road at the two through streets and on the cross streets at
the three T -intersections. MnlDOT also maintains the stop signs on the
frontage road at the former Oasis A venue intersection where there is
still a right turn in and right turn off of Trunk Highway 36.
4.2 Washington County Roads
Washington County has a number of county roads within the City of
Stillwater. These include County Roads 5, 11, 12, 15, 23, 24, 64, and
A-STILL0201,OO

66. Where these roads intersect a trunk highway, Mn/DOT has the
authority and responsibility for traffic controls. Where these
intersections intersect with City streets, Washington County has
jurisdiction and responsibility. Washington County has designated
certain intersections for installation of traffic signals, such as along
Trunk Highway 5 at Curve Crest Boulevard, Orleans Street, and
Croixwood Boulevard. The County has also established four-way stop
controls at many intersections, most with other county roads. These
include the intersections of Osgood A venue and Orleans Street,
3rd Street and Churchill Street, Owens Street and Myrtle Street, and
County Roads 15 and 12, At each of these intersections, there is a
enough traffic on the approaches to justify the four-way stop control.
Map No. 1 indicates the stop signs controlled by and responsibility of
Washington County and Mn/DOT.
4.3 Stillwater Through Streets
The City of Stillwater has established a number of through streets
either by designation as a Municipal State Aid (MSA) street, as a
collector in the Comprehensive Transportation Plan, or as part of a
subdivision concept plan layout. Map No. 2 shows both the City
through street system along with the Washington County and Mn/DOT
systems,
The designation of a street as a through street generally indicates that it
carries area or citywide traffic and has a higher volume than most
cross streets that it intersects. It may connect with or be an extension
of a county road, such as Greeley Street, or may be a neighborhood
collector street connecting to a major intersection on the county or
state system. Along each of these streets, stop signs have been placed
on the cross streets at their intersection with the through street. These
stop signs are justified, and they are consistent with the warrants for a
stop sign that indicates stopping a street entering a through highway or
street is a reason for stop sign control.
A brief synopsis of each of the streets shown on the map follows.
4.3.1 Curve Crest Boulevard
Curve Crest Boulevard is a major east-west street in the Industrial
Park, is on the MSA system, and has been designated as a collector
street since it was built. As such, streets, such as Northwestern A venue
and Industrial Boulevard, are stopped approaching Curve Crest
Boulevard. The intersection of Washington A venue and Curve Crest
Boulevard has a four-way stop control and is justified primarily
through the relatively high volume of traffic and a significant number
of turning movements, Average daily traffic (ADT) on Curve Crest
Boulevard is over 6,000 and on Washington Avenue over 4,000. With
two lanes of traffic plus left turn lanes on each of the approaches,

making one street the through street and the other a stop street could
create some unnecessary conflicts between traffic attempting to cross
the multiple lanes of traffic or even by opposing through and left
turning movements. Traffic signals have been installed on Curve Crest
Boulevard at County Road 5, Market Drive, and Greeley Street.
4.3.2 Washington Avenue
Washington Avenue, from Trunk Highway 36 to Orleans Street, is
similarly a major street on the MSA system in the commercial area and
has traffic signal control at Trunk Highway 36. It has the four-way
stop control at Curve Crest Boulevard mentioned previously. The stop
signs on Tower Drive are justified by through street designation,
4.3.3 Orleans Street
Orleans Street is also a MSA street and, therefore, a through street in
the industrial area. It has a traffic signal at Stillwater Boulevard
(County Road 5). A three-way stop control (all-way) has been installed
at its intersection at Washington A venue. This is based on the
relatively high volumes of traffic on the three approaches (5,700 ADT
to the west and 2,250 to the south), plus a high volume of northbound
to westbound movements. Stop signs are inplace on all cross street
approaches. With the high volumes on Orleans Street and the
relatively low volumes on the other cross street approaches, no
additional all-way stop signs are justified. Delays do occur on Market
Drive at times for northbound traffic, but full-time four-way stop
control is not justified by traffic volumes, based on observations, and
because of the close spacing to the County Road 5 intersection and
traffic signal.
4.3.4 Croixwood Boulevard
Croixwood Boulevard was designed as a main collector street in the
development of the Croixwood area, As such, all cross streets onto
Croix wood Boulevard have stop signs inplace. It is the major street
from the Croixwood development connecting to County Road 5. Based
on observations, there is no cross street that could justify the
installation of a four-way stop control.
4.3.5 Pine Street
Pine Street, between Stillwater Boulevard (County Road 5) and
3rd Street, is a MSA street. It is also a collector street in the
Comprehensive Plan and provides access from the neighborhoods to
the major north-south streets, as well as providing a route from the
Croix wood neighborhood to the downtown area. As such, stop signs
have been installed on all cross street approaches to Pine Street.
Between Stillwater Boulevard and Greeley Street, all cross streets are
relatively short, carry low volumes of traffic, and the two-way stop

designation is appropriate. In the easterly section, cross streets are also
stopped for Pine Street. Pine Street stops at County Road 5, which is
appropriate based on relative traffic volumes. There is an all-way stop
installed at Greeley Street and Pine Street, which reflects the volumes
of traffic (ADT on Greeley Street is over 10,000 and is 4,300 on Pine
Street) and the intersection of two collector streets. Pine Street stops
for 3rd Street, which carries a higher volume of traffic and is a county
road.
The only unusual intersection on Pine Street is at the 4th Street
intersection. It is believed that the unusual arrangement was installed a
number of years ago when 3rd Street was predominately the
northbound roadway and 4th Street was predominately the southbound
roadway generally between the downtown and Highway 36.
Northbound traffic on 4th Street would turn either at Orleans Street or
at Churchill Street to reach 3rd Street and continue its travel north.
Southbound traffic would turn from 3rd Street right onto Pine Street
and then left onto 4th Street. Because of some conflicts and the slight
incline, the three-way stop was intended to allow the westbound to
southbound traffic to turn unimpeded. Since the time of installation,
traffic patterns have changed, and 'much traffic continues southbound
on 4th Street to either Churchill Street or Orleans Street. Thus, the
unusual arrangement is no longer justified and should be changed by
making Pine Street the through street by removing the eastbound stop
sign. This should be done with full notice and supplemental signs,
4.3.6 Churchill Street
Churchill Street, between Greeley Street and 6th A venue, is a through
street on the MSA system. It is a collector street in the Comprehensive
Plan between Greeley Street and 3rd Street. Cross streets are stopped at
each individual intersection along this section. An all-way stop has
been erected at Greeley Street to reflect the relatively high volumes of
traffic (12,500 ADT on Greeley Street and 6,500 on Churchill Street).
The peak hours associated with hospital shifts and with the former
high school also created a situation where all-way stop control was
justified.
Four-way stops are inplace at both 4th Street and 3rd Street
intersections. These again reflect the intersection of two major
collector streets, both of which have high turning movement
percentages. Traffic on 3rd Street is 6,000 vehicles per day, on
4th Street is 5,600, and on Churchill Street is 3,900. Both these four-
way stop conditions are justified based on traffic volumes, turning
movement percentages, and the intersection of similar collector
designated streets.
The intersection of Holcomb Street and Churchill Street had a
four-way stop sign installed primarily because of the pedestrian and

vehicle traffic associated with the former high school and now middle
school. The intersection has some high peak hour volumes coming
from special events or from the school. Each would create congestion
and delays on Holcomb Street on a regular basis. In addition, the
athletic events would also generate a number of out-of-town visitors
unfamiliar with the intersection, This intersection is also a major
pedestrian connection between the West Hill area and the middle
school. Therefore, the four-way stop appears to continue to be
justified.
4.3.7 4th Street
4th Street, between Orleans Street and Pine Street, is also on the MSA
system. It has operated as a through street, and stop signs are inplace
on all cross streets. Four-way stop signs are inplace at Orleans Street,
which is also the intersection with County Road 24 and under the
jurisdiction of Washington County. Because of jurisdiction and traffic
volumes, as well as turning movements, the four-way stop is justified.
The four-way stop at Churchill Street has previously been discussed.
The inplace stop at Pine Street is justified based on the termination of
the MSA designation on 4th Street, diminished traffic volumes, and the
through nature of traffic on Pine Street. There is no westbound stop
sign on Locust Street, and it should be installed.
4.3.8 Greeley Street
Greeley Street, between Myrtle Street and Highway 36, is a through
street. South of approximately Orleans Street, it is a Washington
County road. To the north, it is a MSA street. It is a collector street in
the Comprehensive Plan. It is a major entry into the City and carries
relatively high volume of traffic, As a through street, it does have stop
signs inplace on all cross streets. All-way stops are inplace at Churchill
Street and at Pine Street, both of which are also collector streets.
Traffic volumes, road designations, and turning movements, especially
at Churchill Street, justify these four-way stop installations.
A study of the Myrtle Street and Greeley Street intersection was made
several years ago, At that time, consideration of four-way stop
installation was reviewed. A major concern is the delays for
northbound through and left turning traffic. Observations indicated
that much of the traffic oriented to the north and west on Greeley
Street will actually turn left at Olive Street and then right on Owens
Street to use the four-way stop control at Myrtle Street. Based on these
traffic patterns, and the relatively short delays for northbound traffic
except at certain peak times, the existing two-way stop control
remained. Recently, relatively long delays have begun to occur at
Myrtle Street and Owens Street, and it may be desirable to reconsider
traffic controls in the area bounded by Myrtle Street, Olive Street,
Greeley Street, and Owens Street.

4.3.9 Myrtle Street
Myrtle Street, east of the Owens Street intersection, is a MSA street
and has been designated a collector street in the Comprehensive Plan.
Cross streets have been stopped at each intersection with Myrtle
Street. A traffic signal exists at Main Street and a four-way stop at the
intersection with Owens Street, which is actually the County Road 5
and County Road 12 intersection,
The only unusual traffic control on Myrtle Street is the three-way stop
at the intersection with 3rd Street. This also was studied several years
ago to determine whether the three-way stop was justified. Because of
the steep hill for westbound traffic, it was determined that stopping
westbound traffic would be impractical and could lead to delays and
problems in getting vehicles moving once they stop on a steep hill.
The eastbound stop is justified because of the lack of sight distance for
cross street traffic and the problems in seeing up hill traffic on the
approach. There is also the concern over westbound Myrtle Street left
turning traffic in front of eastbound Myrtle Street traffic, if the
eastbound stop sign was not inplace, The conclusion of the study was
that the three-way stop, although unusual, was justified and
supplemental signing was installed beneath the stop signs.

North 2nd Street from Chestnut Street north to Willow Street is on the
MSA system and has generally been designated as a through street. As
such, cross street stop signs have been installed at a number of
locations. They are inplace at every four-legged intersection, but
missing at four T-intersections. For consistency, it is recommended
that stop signs be installed on the approaches to North 2nd Street on
eastbound Poplar Street, even though it is a dead-end street now. Stop
signs should also be installed on westbound River Heights Drive and
westbound Sycamore A venue at the North 2nd Street intersection,
Finally, a westbound stop sign should be installed on the road from
Pioneer Park.
The MSA designation on North 2nd Street continues on Willow Street
to provide continuity to Main Street. The intersection of 2nd Street and
Willow Street is controlled with a westbound Yield sign. Because of
the relatively low volumes and because of the westbound uphill
approach on Willow Street, the Yield sign is justified, Because
virtually only local traffic uses Willow Street, the Yield sign and the
through traffic on 2nd Street will be understood by the motorists,
Installation of a stop sign on 1st Street southbound at Willow Street is
not justified even though Willow Street is a MSA route. The relatively
low volume coupled with the steep grades in the area would make a
stop undesirable.

4.3,11 Wilkins Street/4th Street
MSA designation has been given to a combination of west Wilkins
Street from Owens Street to North 4th Street and North 4th Street from
Wilkins Street to Myrtle Street. These also have been designated
through streets as stop signs have been inplace on most of the cross
streets. The only missing sign is on westbound Aspen Street, and it is
recommended that a stop sign be installed at its approach to 4th Street.
All cross streets on Wilkins Street have stop signs inplace.
An unexpected signed intersection on this MSA route is the
intersection of North 4th Street and Laurel Street. The intersection
currently has stop signs on the 4th Street approaches, which is
inconsistent with its designation as a MSA street. Laurel Street,
through signing, has also become somewhat a through street since
4th Street stops at its approach to Laurel Street. But there have been
four-way stop sign controls installed at the Everett Street and Laurel
Street stops at 3rd Street. It is recommended that 4th Street be the
through street and Laurel Street stop. Because this has impacts on
other streets in the area, further discussion can be found in the North
Hill section of this report.
4.3.12 Mulberry Street
Another MSA street is Mulberry Street, which has been so designated
between Owens Street and North 4th Street. Stop signs have been
installed on all the cross streets. The lone exception is the intersection
of Mulberry Street and William Street where Mulberry Street actually
stops for William Street.
Since William Street only continues one block north to Linden Street,
and is stopped at Myrtle Street two blocks south, the reason for the
stop sign arrangement is not apparent. Reversing the stop signs to
continue Mulberry Street as a through street is recommended based on
field reviews and available traffic volume information, as well as
through street designation.
4.3.13 Boutwell Road/80th StreetlNeal A venue
An additional collector street is a combination of Boutwell Road and
80th Street in the newly annexed area. This previously served as a
County Road 12 connection, and it has historically been the through
street. Stop signs are inplace on cross streets at all intersections.
Neal A venue, between Boutwell Road and the north City limits, also
exists as a through street. Much of the Oak Glen development was
based on connections to Neal A venue. A connection across the
Browns Creek provided access between both McKusick Road and
Highway 96 and Boutwell Road,

Oak Glen Trail
An additional MSA street is a combination of Oak Glen Trail and Neal
A venue. Oak Glen Trail in the north Oak Glen development was
initially designated as the major connection between McKusick Road
and Highway 96 within the City of Stillwater. Ultimately, Neal
A venue, if annexed, may become the major connecting street between
McKusick Road and Highway 96. All stop signs on cross streets are
inplace along Oak Glen Trail.
Stillwater Undesignated Through Streets
In addition to designated through streets, the City has also developed a
number of streets that serve as through streets in neighborhoods,
primarily through circulation patterns or past installations of stop
signs. As an example, Olive Street serves as a connection between the
downtown and Greeley Street and has stop signs at virtually all cross
streets. Others have less significance in the traffic circulation system,
but have had stop signs installed on cross streets and in essence, make
these through streets. An example is Hidden Valley Lane in the circle
between its two intersections with Sunrise A venue in the Croix wood
development.
Many of these undesignated through streets are part of area circulation
systems and need to be discussed in terms of the overall area
circulation patterns. As part of the study, the City was divided into a
number of areas that are somewhat distinct by either land use type or
neighborhoods. This provided an opportunity to review the circulation
pattern not only on arterial streets and undesignated through streets,
but at other intersections as part of an area system. For purposes of this
report, the following paragraphs and discussions in Section 4.5 look at
each of the individual areas, circulation patterns, existing stop signs,
and potential changes to the traffic control system. The designated area
boundaries and names are only for use in this report, Boundaries are
shown on Map No, 3,
Stillwater Area Analyses
Downtown Area
The downtown area is essentially the commercial area plus the
immediately surrounding residential area defined roughly by the area
north of Pine Street, east of 5th Street, and south of Mulberry Street.
Two major streets in the downtown area are controlled by Mn/DOT
(Highway 95 and Highway 36) and Washington County (County
Road 23 via 3rd Street and Chestnut Street). Myrtle Street, 2nd Street
north of Myrtle Street, 4th Street north of Myrtle Street, and a small
portion of Mulberry Street are all through streets on the MSA system.
West Olive Street, from Main Street to Greeley Street, also functions
as a through street. Stop signs on cross streets are inplace along all of
the designated through streets, The multi-way stop signs, including

unusual stop sign arrangements, have been discussed in the previous
sections. Olive Street has cross street stop signs inplace at 2nd Street
and 5th Street. Stop signs should be installed on 4th Street on the
approaches to Olive Street to complete the arterial designation.
Because of significant pedestrian traffic and the commercial nature of
much of the downtown, traffic control is generally needed and justified
at the remaining intersections. Stop signs are inplace at the
intersections of Nelson Street and Nelson Alley approaching 2nd Street.
Mulberry Street is also stopped at North 3rd Street. Water Street is
stopped at Nelson Street. There are also stop signs inplace at some of
the parking lot accesses onto the City street system. These are justified
because of the public nature of the access points. The only four-legged
intersection is at Water Street and Myrtle Street where the stop signs
on Water Street appear to be the best solution for traffic and
pedestrians,
4.5.2 North Hill
The North Hill area is essentially the older portion of Stillwater north
of downtown and includes all the area north of Mulberry Street and
north of Linden Street, west of 5th Street, and essentially east of Owens
Street. Trunk Highway 95 and County Road 5 are the two non-city
streets in the area. North 2nd Street and the North 4th StreetlWilkins
Street combination are the two designated through streets in the area.
There are quite a number of other streets with various stop sign
arrangements along them,
The four-way stop control at the intersection of 2nd Street and West
Wilkins Street is probably justified because of the orientation of traffic
flow in the area. North 2nd Street is a designated arterial and is the
main north-south street in the easterly portion of the North Hill.
Wilkins Street is the primary connection between the bluff area along
15t Street and Broadway Street including the Elm Street connection to
Highway 95 and the area to the west connecting to County Road 5.
4th Street is a designated through street to Wilkins Street. However, it
functions as a continuation of the through street north to the Stillwater
Country Club entrance, Some of the stop signs are inplace to complete
this through street designation, such as eastbound Stillwater A venue,
St. Croix Avenue, and Sycamore Street. Westbound stop signs should
be added on Stillwater Avenue and on Aspen Street at their
intersection with 4th Street. A connection to the Country Club should
also have a stop sign at its entrance onto 4th Street, even though it is
essentially a private driveway. This would complete the through street
designation along 4th Street.
The one exception to the through street is at the intersection of Laurel
Street. Currently, 4th Street stops on both approaches to the Laurel

Street intersection. It would appear that reversing the stop signs on the
basis of designated through streets would be justified. Laurel Street, by
signing, appears to function as a through street to the west although
there is a four-way stop control at Everett Street. To the east, it stops at
both 3rd Street and 2nd Street. With both Mulbe1]' Street and Wilkins
Street serving as through streets connecting 4t Street and Owens
Street, the designation of Laurel Street as an additional arterial is not
needed. A separate study of the intersection could be undertaken
including efforts to determine why the stop sign arrangement was
initially installed in its present arrangement. A four-way stop control
could be considered, but is unlikely to be justified by either street
designations or traffic volumes. It may need more study than can be
provided in this overall inventory, The initial recommendation is for
removal.
Everett Street in this area also appears to operate as a through street. It
does have four-way stop control at Laurel Street and is stopped at
Wilkins Street. There is two-way stop control on both Maple Street
and Elm Street at Everett Street. Hickory Street has a stop sign in one
direction, and a Yield sign in the reverse direction. Aspen Street has
Yield signs in both directions, Everett Street is the one street between
Owens Street and 4th Street that does cross the McKusick ravine: To
make the Everett Street through street operation complete, it is
suggested that the three Yield signs be replaced with stop signs. The
Aspen Street and Everett Street intersection has some sight distance
constraints where stop sign would be justified. A similar situation
exists at Hickory Street. This would then provide consistency in traffic
controls along the entire stretch of Everett Street. A westbound stop
sign on Cherry Street at Everett Street needs to be installed. Based on
circulation in the area, the Laurel Street and Everett Street intersection
with its four-way stop sign control appears to work reasonably well.
The stop signs are probably not justified by traffic volumes, and some
violations have been observed at the intersection. However, removal
may create more problems in adjusting to long time destination of a
four-way stop control.
Martha Street north of Wilkins Street also is signed somewhat as an
through street, although it does not function as one and is one block
west of 4th Street, which is a through street. It does stop at Wilkins
Street and has stop signs on Stillwater A venue and St. Croix A venue
on their approaches. There are no stop signs at Sycamore Street. With
the low volume of traffic, the stop signs on Stillwater A venue and on
St. Croix A venue are unnecessary and are not needed to make Martha
Street a through street and should be removed rather than replaced.
Moore Street currently stops at Martha Street. This is concern for two
reasons. Martha Street does not have an extension on the north side of
the street, and traffic on Martha Street virtually stops as it approaches

Moore Street anyway. There is also a sight distance constraint for
northbound traffic, Observations have also shown a few vehicles
traveling through the stop signs on Moore Street. With the relatively
low volume of traffic, removal of the stop signs on Moore Street
would be justified. Installation of a northbound stop sign on Martha
Street would help add emphasis on the fact that all traffic must turn. A
recommendation is, therefore, made to reverse the stop signs carefully
warning motorists in advance of the change.
Laurel Street acts as an extension of McKusick Road and serves as a
through street at least to 4th Street. Reversing the stop signs is possible
reducing the through movement on Laurel Street at 4th Street. As
mentioned earlier, this should be a separate study. The three-way stop
at 3rd Street is inconsistent with traffic volumes and patterns in the
area, It is recommended that the eastbound and westbound stop signs
on Laurel Street at 3rd Street could be removed and a northbound stop
sign installed.
The intersection of Wilkins Street and 2nd Street is a four-way stop
making Wilkins Street somewhat important in the circulation in the
area. It would make sense to add a southbound stop sign on 3rd Street
approachin* Wilkins Street to provide continuity for Wilkins Street
between 2n Street and 4th Street.
Stop signs are inplace on Wilkins Street and 15t Street and probably
justified because of the hill on 15t Street coming from Elm Street and
the reduced volume of traffic on Wilkins Street east of 2nd Street.
One of the biggest questions relates to the function of 5th Street from
Linden Street to Wilkins Street. One block west of 4th Street, it does
not need to function as a through street. Currently, both Hickory Street
and Elm Street stop at sth Street. Aspen Street and sth Street have no
stop sign control. sth Street stops at both Maple Street and Laurel
Street. There is no control at the intersection with Cherry Street. Based
on the overall patterns, it is suggested that the stop signs on Elm Street
and Hickory Street not be replaced when they need replacement. This
gives the City a chance to review the intersections in the area in more
detail and discuss them with the neighbors if desired,
Stop signs are inplace on St. Croix A venue at Williams Street and
appear to be somewhat justified because of the offset intersection. St.
Croix A venue is a major connection from the area to County Road 5
and turning traffic through the two intersections is expected. It appears
that the stop sign is justified. The stop sign on Sycamore Street at
William Street is not necessary and could be removed when
replacement is needed. No additional stop signs along William Street
need to be installed, The various intersections with Stillwater A venue,
Aspen Street, Elm Street, Hickory Street, and Maple Street were all

reviewed, and none appeared to need stop signs for any specific
reason.
The final stop signs in the area are unusual installations on 5th Street
and 4th Street at Poplar Street. For several reasons, primarily to do with
the unusual geometries and topography in the area, the stop signs
should be left inplace,
The intersection of Elm Street and Martha Street has a single stop sign
inplace. There is no local recognition as to why this was installed, and
a recommendation is made to remove it since a single traffic control in
a four-legged intersection can lead to driver misunderstandings.
4.5.3 West Hill
The West Hill, as defined in this study, is between Pine Street and
Laurel Street and between the combination of Greeley Street, Owens
Street on the west and 5th Street on the east. Both Mulberry Street and
Myrtle Street are through streets, and all stop signs are inplace as
discussed previously. Olive Street operates as a through street, and
stop signs are inplace on the cross streets. Two exceptions exist on
Olive Street. Olive Street is stopped both eastbound and westbound at
Martha Street. This intersection was briefly studied several years ago,
and recommendations were made to remove the eastbound and
westbound stop signs, Based on citizen comments, the City declined to
remove the stop signs, and they remain inplace today. This should be
restudied in light ofthis overall study, The eastbound and westbound
stop signs have marginal justification.
A Yield sign is inplace on Olive Street at Greeley Street. It has
previously been discussed that this should be replaced with a stop sign,
but no action was ever taken. One of the problems is sign location for
the westbound to northbound right turning traffic.
A number of other intersections have stop sign control for various
reasons, Stop signs are inplace on William Street at Oak Street, despite
Oak Street being an offset intersection. Because of the local nature of
traffic and the potential confusion by the offset placement of stop
signs, the removal of the stop signs is recommended,
The Rice Street and North Street east-west connections have some stop
signs inplace and others missing. Stop signs exist on Greeley Street
both northbound and southbound at Rice Street. This apparently is
designed to deter traffic from continuing on Greeley Street north of
Myrtle Street. Stop signs are also inplace on Greeley Street at Linden
Street. Stop signs have also been placed on northbound and
southbound Martha Street at Rice Street. This is despite the fact that
Rice Street is only a short 21/2 block street. It is recommended to

remove the Martha Street stop signs at Rice Street and install stop
signs on North Street at Williams Street and at Everett Street.
Everett Street is a through street in the North Hill area from Wilkins
Street to Mulberry Street. Between Mulberry Street and Myrtle Street,
there are no cross street stop signs making or extending Everett Street
as an through street. This, however, should be considered as part of the
overall traffic flow patterns in the West Hill area north of Myrtle
Street. It is recommended that a stop sign be placed on Rice Street at
Everett Street to complete the through traffic flow on Everett Street.
4.5.4 South Hill
The South Hill, for this study, is defined as the area south of Pine
Street, including Pine Street and east of Greeley Street, but not
including the area southwest of the middle school. County Roads 23
and 24 are included in this area, and the 4th Street, Churchill Street,
and Pine Street through streets have been discussed previously,
Churchill Street is a designated through street west of 3rd Street. East
from 3rd Street to 6th A venue, it also functions as a through street, and
the stop signs are inplace and justified. Three-way stop control is
inplace at 6th A venue, and it appears somewhat justified because of a
slight hill and some sight distance concerns, as well as an effort to help
emphasis Churchill Street as an east-west through street from
6th A venue. .
Burlington Street is signed as an through street from 3rd Street to 3rd
A venue. Stop signs are inplace on all cross streets. There is a four-way
stop control installed at Burlington Street and 4th Avenue. This
justification cannot be documented except that it does help to orient
traffic using County Road 3 that did not turn on Orleans A venue to
instead use Burlington Street rather than continuing to a fully
residential area.
6th A venue was reviewed to determine if stop signs needed to be
installed. Reviews of each intersection and of the of the circulation
pattern in the area did not show needs for any additional stop signs.
Stop signs on St. Louis Street at 4th A venue are justified with the
connection of 4th Avenue between Orleans Street and Burlington
Street.
Pine Street has four-way stop control at 2nd Street and three-way stop
control at Broadway Street. The all-way stop control at 2nd Street is
justified primarily on the basis of volumes of traffic coming up the hill
on 2nd Street, and drivers either not wanting to or not being able to stop
before entering the blind intersection on Pine Street. Thus, Pine Street
traffic should be stopped for safety reasons, and 2nd Street traffic
should be stopped to provide for some continuity of flow on Pine

Street from 3rd Street to Broadway Street. The northbound and
southbound stop signs on Broadway Street are probably reasonable in
conjunction with the dead-end area further north on Broadway Street.
Other intersections in the area were also reviewed. It does not appear
that there is need for any additional stop signs on or approaching
Hancock Street between 6th A venue and 3rd Street. The existing stop'
signs on northbound and southbound 2nd Street at Marsh Street do not
appear to be justified and could be candidates for removal during the
sign renewal programs.
Willard Street has become somewhat of a through street because of the
placement of several stop signs on its cross streets. Although it is a
parallel street between Churchill Street and Pine Street, both of which
are designated through streets, removal of existing stop signs appears
to be a poor option based on specific intersection reviews, It may be
better to complete the signing by converting the Yield sign on
northbound 5th Street to a stop sign and adding a southbound stop sign
on 6th Street.
4.5.5 Brick Pond
The area designated as Brick Pond is essentially the area impacted by
traffic from the hospital, middle school, the developments southwest
of the middle school, and the small development immediately west of
the Greeley Street. Most of the stop signs in the area are along the
designated through streets of Greeley Street, Churchill Street, Pine
Street, or 4th Street. Orleans Street has become a throu~h street by
placement of stop signs on its approaches on 5th Street, 6t Street, and
Harriet Street. There are also stop signs on northbound and
southbound Everett Street at the Orleans Street T-intersection. This is
somewhat of a concern because the through streets are stopped for the
approach that must turn. In addition, Orleans Street traffic travels
downhill to Everett Street, and a stop sign would try to reinforce the
necessity for both reduced speed and the need to turn. It is, therefore,
suggested that the intersection be converted to a three-way stop control
based on geometrics and turning traffic volumes.
Everett Street could become a complimentary through street to Orleans
Street. A stop sign is already inplace on Anderson Street, and an
additional stop sign should be added on westbound Hancock Street.
South of Orleans Street, Everett Street or Everett Drive becomes a
strictly residential street. No stop signs are needed in the residential
area to the south.
East of the middle school, the number of stop signs was installed to
reflect the high school driving patterns. Four-way stop signs are
inplace on Hancock Street at both 6th Street and 5th Street, which
appears to be excessive. There are also four-way stop signs at Marsh

I
Street and 6th Street, and Marsh Street stops at 5th Street. It is
suggested that the four intersections be reviewed with removal of some
stop signs as a goal. As one concept, the four..:way stop could be kept
inplace at Marsh Street and 6th Street and two-way stop installed at the
other three intersections (Hancock Street at 5th Street and 6th Street and
Marsh Street at 5th Street) in a "basket weave" concept. This study
should include school officials and neighborhood residents.
Northbound traffic on Holcomb Street has a Yield sign approaching
Hancock Street. Observations have shown very little traffic even
slowing down going through the Yield sign and very little westbound
traffic on Hancock Street pulling out in front of other traffic even
though northbound traffic has a Yield sign. It is recommended that a
stop sign be installed on westbound Hancock Street, and the
northbound Yield sign be removed. This would be more consistent
with traffic flows and with normal right-of-way operation at a
T -intersection.
Stop signs along cross streets to Willard Street are inplace, except for
northbound Haniet Street, again making Willard Street a through
street. This is an acceptable operation, and no changes are
recommended, except to add the stop sign on northbound Haniet
Street. The four-way stop at Holcomb Street and Willard Street should
be reviewed by taking detailed traffic counts; It may be justified to
remove at least two of the stop signs.
A northbound Yield sign is inplace at Everett Street at Abbott Street.
This should be removed,
4.5,6 Industrial Park
This is a commercial area north of Highway 36 and has mostly through
streets in it. The only additional stop signs to review are those along
Shelton Drive where all streets are stopped on their approaches.
Similarly, Victoria Court stops at Tuenge Drive. This is consistent
with the hierarchy of roads and the travel patterns. The final stop sign
is on Tower Drive at Northwestern Avenue, which again makes sense
from an overall traffic flow system.
All other intersections were discussed in sections on arterial streets.
4.5.7 Highlands
This is a relatively new area once known as the Benson Farm and
includes the Cottage Drive area. Benson Boulevard is a through street
by design, and stop signs should be retained on the few cross streets
such as Surry Lane, A review was made of the intersection of Benson
Boulevard and Highland Road relative to additional traffic control
needs. Two-way stop signs are inplace on Highland Road. Traffic
volumes on Benson Boulevard are probably at their low point at this
Stop Signs Report A-STILL0201,OO

Stop Signs Report
Stillwater, Minnesota
particular intersection and do not justify a four-way stop condition.
Traffic is relatively local in nature, and the volumes are quite low.
Sight distance is good in all directions. Therefore, the four-way stop
did not appear to be justified.
Highland Road is also somewhat of a through street only because the
two intersections with Highland Court and Lydia Circle have stop
signs on them at Highland Road. The stop signs actually are not
needed because there is good sight distance, low traffic volumes, local
traffic, and the fact that these are T-intersections. These should be
candidates for non-replacement during a sign renewal program.
Other streets in the area do not need stop signs even though they are
inplace. The northbound stop sign at Paddock Circle at Surry Lane is
not needed because good sight distance, low volumes, and virtually all
local traffic. The stop sign should be removed. The stop signs on Surry
Lane at Driving Park Road are somewhat desirable since this is one of
the few four-way intersections in the area, It does provide right-of-way
designation through the intersection, and with the signs inplace, the
removal may create more problems than it would solve,
4.5,8 Lily Lake North
The area is essentially between Greeley Street and Stillwater
Boulevard extended and between Orleans Street and County Road 12.
It consists of east-west through streets of Pine Street and Olive Street,
as well as Greeley Street, portions of Owens Street and Stillwater
Boulevard. The only remaining stop signs or concerns are at individual
intersections.
Because of volumes on Deer Path, the stop sign on Deer Court at Deer
Path is justified. Similarly, stopping westbound Ramsey Street at Brick
Street should be considered if any changes are made to the circulation
on Deer Path. Otherwise, the intersection has operated satisfactory for
many years. Stop signs on Ramsey Street at Sherburne Street do not
appear to be justified for any reason other than possibly to try to allow
through traffic to use Sherburne Street between Myrtle Street and
Olive Street. These should be candidates for removal when sign
replacement is needed, Stop signs on Oak Street at Owens Street are
justified only in that Owens Street is a through street north of Olive
Street, and this would extend its through street characteristics south to
Pine Street. No changes are recommended,
4.5.9 South Lake McKusick
This is primarily a residential area south of Lake McKusick, between
Owens Street and east of Eagle Ridge Trail, and the Oak Glen
development and north of County Road 12, The only potential through
street in the area is a combination of Birchwood Drive and Linden
Street. Linden Street has been partially designated as a through street.

A stop sign, which was inplace on northbound Sherburne Street, has
been removed. If Linden Street is to be designated as a through street,
which is recommended, additional stop signs, including replacement of
the Sherburne Street stop sign, should be installed on southbound
Center Street and on northbound Echo Lane. No other stop signs are
needed or recommended for this area.
4.5.10 Oak Glen East
With the exception of stop signs on approaches to County Road 5 and
County Road 64, there are very few stop signs inplace or needed in the
area, Stop signs have been installed on both Amundson Drive and
Center Street approaching Sycamore Street. These are justified
primarily on the basis of all traffic needing to turn at Sycamore Street
and there being some continuity of traffic flow along Sycamore Street.
The only other potential through street would be Amundson Drive. A
review of the existing intersections from the Oak Glen development
along Amundson Drive shows good sight distance and little need for
traffic control. The intersection of Fisher Circle at Amundson Drive
does have some sight distance restrictions and the inplace stop sign for
Fisher Circle is justified.
4,5.11 Oak Glen North
Both Neal A venue and Oak Glen Trail are the through streets
designated in the Oak Glen development north of McKusick Road and
west of the golf course. Oak Glen Drive also has been designated as a
through street by placement of stop signs on cross street intersections.
While the need for these is debatable, they can be retained since three
of the four intersections are T-intersections, and the sign pattern does
provide continuity for intersection control.
4.5.12 Eagle Ridge/Oak Glen West
Eagle Ridge Trail by design is a through street. The entire
development is centered around traffic using Eagle Ridge Trail as a
collector street to reach either County Road 12 or Neal Avenue. All
stop signs along Eagle Ridge Trail should be retained.
Stop signs have been installed on the T-side of all four cul-de-sac
intersections with other cul-de-sacs. Examples are a stop sign on Van
Tassel Court, which is a short cul-de-sac, at its intersection with Van
Tassel Drive, which is also a cul-de-sac. With local traffic, low
volumes and good sight distance at all intersections, these stop signs
are unnecessary and should be removed. These include Van Tassel
Court at Van Tassel Drive, Lecuyer Circle at Lecuyer Drive, Lecuyer
Court at Lecuyer Drive, and Kallie Court at Greentwig Way,
Neal A venue is also a through street in the development. Currently,
there is a two-way stop at the intersection with Eagle Ridge Trail with

Neal A venue as the through street. Neal A venue is a major connector
basically between Highway 96 or McKusick Road and Boutwell Road,
Eagle Ridge primarily carries traffic collected in the local
development. There is good sight distance at the intersection. The
existing two-way stop condition should remain. Four-way stop control
would not be justified.
4.5.13 Croixwood
The Croix wood development was one of the original major
subdivisions in Stillwater and has a number of non-through streets and
a significant number of stop signs at intersections. Many of the stop
signs appear to be logical, based on traffic volumes and street
hierarchies and on the flow of traffic to either Stillwater Boulevard or
north to County Road 12. Observations show the traffic flows
reasonably, and although some of the stop signs are violated, the
majority seem to be adhered to. Only eight intersections do not have
controls of some sort. There are only two four-way intersections in the
entire development, and both have stop signs on all four approaches.
As expressed previously, Croixwood Boulevard is a designated
through street, and all stop signs should be retained on the cross
streets. It ends at Northland A venue with Northland A venue having
through movements and the only stop sign being for westbound
Croixwood Boulevard, This appears logical based on the turning
traffi c,
Northland A venue appears to be a through street by design except that
it does not continue south of Sunrise A venue, and the connection to
County Road 12 is not continuous. Stop signs should be retained on all
cross streets, such as Wild Crest Lane and Woodridge Lane.
There are questions about other intersections on Northland A venue.
Currently, the four-way intersection of Northland Avenue and
Interlachen Boulevard has a four-way stop sign control. Previously,
Interlachen Boulevard traveled west around Long Lake and was to be
a major connection to County Road 15. It now has relatively local
traffic entering into the new developments west of Long Lake. The
appropriateness of stopping Northland A venue at Interlachen
Boulevard needs to be reviewed further based on both traffic volumes
and overall traffic flow. It appears that the volumes are not relatively
high and perhaps the stop signs were installed to slow traffic or in
anticipation of higher volumes on lnterlachen Boulevard.
The Northland A venue and Hawthorne Lane intersection is also an all-
way stop. Most northbound traffic on Northland A venue turns at the
intersection to continue on Northland A venue to County Road 12.
Observations have shown a relatively high violation rate, especially for
northbound and southbound Northland A venue traffic. It would be

difficult, however, to remove two of the stop signs and stop only
Hawthorne Lane with the existing geometries. This may be an
alternate candidate for removal of stop signs on the northbound
Northland A venue and westbound Hawthorne Lane approaches as an
alternative to removal of stop signs on Northland Avenue at
Interlachen Drive, and the two should be studied together.
There is some concern with the lack of a southbound stop sign at the
Sunrise A venue intersection, Since all traffic must turn, a stop sign
could be justified. However, it may be easier to develop additional turn
signs rather than install the stop sign that probably will not have a high,
acceptance rate.
Sunrise A venue is a through street by both design and sign placement.
Signs on the cross street should be retained.
Oakridge Road is also a through street in terms of connections of
Croix wood Boulevard and County Road 5. The stop signs on cross
streets could also be retained.
Interlachen Drive apparently was intended to be a through street based
on both design and traffic controls. It does function as a local collector
street, and the stop signs on the cross streets, such a Tamarack Court
and Edgewood A venue, should be retained. It should continue to stop
at Northland Avenue. The all-way stop at Mid Oaks Avenue is
questionable, especially based on changes to the road to the west. This
was reviewed a number of years ago, and the recommendations to
remove the stop signs on Interlachen Drive were not acted on. It
should be readdressed and removal of the eastbound and westbound
stop signs considered.
The four-way stop at Interlachen Drive and Mary Knoll Drive is
probably more acceptable since the volumes appear to be closer to
equal on the two streets. To complete the Interlachen Way through
street operation, the Yield sign should be replaced with a stop sign on
eastbound Bayberry Drive at Interlachen Way, primarily due to the
downhill slope and sight distance constraints, as well as consistency. A
stop sign should also installed at Interlachen Way Court at lnterlachen
Way.
Mary Knoll Drive is a through street between Oakridge Road and
County Road 12. Stop signs should be retained on cross streets.
Fairmeadows Road is a local collector street, and stop signs have been
placed at most T-intersections. Stop signs are not really needed for
traffic control purposes and are probably violated frequently, although
with a rolling stop. They are stopping traffic that must be yield right-
of-way anyway. For consistency, some of the stop signs could be
removed or a stop sign should be added on southbound Laurie Court at

Fairmeadows Road, A major concern is the T -intersection at
Fairmeadows Road and Darrell Court. Currently, there is a Yield sign
for southbound traffic that is not an appropriate control. Options that
exist include: 1) remove the Yield sign and leave it as an uncontrolled
intersection, 2) install stop signs on northbound and southbound
Darrell Court and Darrell Drive, or 3) install a stop sign for westbound
Fairmeadows Road. It is recommended that Option 1 be used because
westbound left turning traffic does not expect both directions on
Darrell Court/Darrell Drive to yield or stop and having a stop sign on
one side could lead to some confusion. With little volumes and local
traffic, this lack of traffic control should operate satisfactorily.
Hidden Valley Lane is a through street due to sign placement. As
pointed out earlier, it is not necessary to have the stop signs that exist.
Traffic volumes are low, and there is virtually 100 percent local traffic.
There are little intersection conflicts at T-intersections, and it is not
consistent with the placement of stop signs at more major
intersections. There is also inconsistency with all intersections west of
Sunrise A venue having traffic control and only some of them on the
east side having traffic control. Stop signs could be added at the
remaining cross streets for consistency, but this adds more unnecessary
signs, A second option would be to leave the signs inplace on the west
side of Sunrise A venue and remove the southbound sign on Evergreen
Court, This provides some consistency. The third option would be to
remove stop signs on all the cross streets. It is recommended that
Option 3 be utilized when signs need renewal in the area, but the
southbound Evergreen Court sign be removed earlier.
Southbound Parkwood Lane is stopped at Wild Pine Lane, This is
reasonable based on traffic movements and sight distance.
Stop signs on Fairlawn Drive and Edgewood Court onto Edgewood
A venue are not needed. This is local traffic and the signs are the stern
side of the T -intersections. It is recommended that these not be
replaced when signs in the area are renewed.
A stop sign is inplace on Bayberry A venue on Hawthorne Lane. This
is not needed and should not be reinstalled when signs are renewed.
Stop signs are inplace on cross streets at their intersection with
Nightingale Boulevard, in essence making Nightingale Boulevard a
through street. This is somewhat consistent with traffic flow, and the
signs should be retained.
4.5.14 West Long Lake
The street system in the two developments built to date on the west
side of Long Lake are designed to reduce through traffic and to control
the flow of traffic through road design and discontinuity of streets.

Major access to the south development comes from 62nd Street and
consists of a north-south connection of Legend Boulevard, Barons
Way, Reunion Road, and Newman Trail. This connects the main
intersection in the Liberty development with the Legends
development. All stop signs on cross streets are inplace with the
exception of Adeline Green. This should be installed.
There is also an all-way stop at the intersection of Legend Boulevard
and Barons Way, even though this is a three-way intersection. The
road, which continues to the east, ends up being 110 Way. Although
there is little traffic on 110 Way, stopping both eastbound and
westbound Barons Way does not seem to be consistent with flow in
the neighborhood, and it is recommended that these two signs be
removed,
Other signs in the Legend development seemed to be reasonable.
Reunion Road is stopped at Barons Way, which is similar to the
revised Legend Boulevard and Barons Way intersection. Bergman
Drive is stopped at Timber Way.
The street system in the Liberty development is more complex. There
is a four-way stop condition at the Newman Trail and Liberty Parkway
intersection. Stop signs are also inplace at the cross streets leading to
Liberty Parkway with the exception of Heritage Court, A stop sign
should be added at this location, There are also stop signs inplace at
the cross streets onto Rutherford Road, which is the main entry from
the north end of the development. Yield signs are inplace at the traffic
circle involving Rutherford Road and School House Circle, Other than
the additional stop sign on Heritage Court, no changes are suggested in
this development.
4,5.15 North Annexation Area
This area consists of the new development north of 80th Street, as well
as the inplace development between 80th Street and County Road 12.
There are very few completed streets in the new development and thus,
no recommendations for stop sign installations, The existing stop sign
installations in the existing development around Minar Lane do have
some unique signing that is oriented towards making Minar Avenue
the main roadway between County Road 12 and 80th Street. Minar
Lane stops as the "stem" of a "T" at the north Minar A venue
intersection. However, at the south connection between Minar Lane
and Minar A venue, the eastbound approach on the "top" of the "T" of
the intersection is stopped. This is an unusual situation, but with
strictly local traffic, it appears to work adequately and no
recommendations are made for changes.

5.3 Stop Sign Removals
The study also indicated several stop signs that should be removed,
These are primarily stop signs that create problems or get little respect
based on observations of failure to comply. Removal of these stop
signs is necessary to complete development of a system of stop signs
at intersections in Stillwater designed to provide best overall safety
and efficiency with obtaining a high level of motorist compliance.

Stop Signs Report
Stillwater, Minnesota
Before any stop sign is removed, a two part plan should be in effect.
The immediate neighborhood should be notified of the intent to
remove the stop sign. This could be done through newspaper articles
or, if the City desired, direct mailings to those living on the streets
within a block in each direction from the intersection. It will be
difficult to remove any stop sign without some citizens expressing
concerns. The reasons for the stop sign removal need to be made very
clear to the public and indicate that it is part of an overall traffic flow
study. Where volumes permit, it may be well to provide some
documentation of the rate of stop sign compliance at the intersection.
With low volumes, the effort to obtain a significant sample of motorist
actions may be time consuming.
A second portion of the removal process is to carefully indicate to
traffic that a control change has been made at an intersection. This
could consist of a portable sign indicating "Traffic Control Change
Ahead" on all four approaches and signs at the intersection indicating
that cross traffic no longer stops at the intersection. In some
communities where stop signs have been removed, the advance
warning and intersection signs have been installed and left inplace for
two or three weeks and then moved to a different location, Thus, the
removal process is relatively slow.
5.4 Intersections With Requests
The study also reviewed a number of intersections where requests have
been made in the past for installation of stop signs, Based on the
overall study, including observations at the intersection and review of
some traffic volume information made available, the following
intersections were studied and were not recommended for stop sign
installations.
. Benson Boulevard and Highland Road
. William Street and Maple Street
. Hancock Street and 2nd Street
. Hancock Street an 1st Street
. Neal Avenue and Eagle Ridge Trail
5.5 Do Not Replace at Sign Renewal Time
There are also a number of stop signs of marginal value in the
Stillwater area. In the report, it was indicated that some stop signs
should not be reinstalled when the sign condition indicates they should.
be replaced. The signs are of such little value in terms of traffic control
or safety, the replacement and the continual maintenance is not
justified. They could be removed earlier after the recommendations in
Section 5.1, 5.2, and 5.3 are completed. Generally, these stop signs are
at locations where traffic would normally slow or stop and yield to
cross street traffic based on the geometrics such as a short cul-de-sac

entering onto another cul-de-sac or loop street where virtually all
traffic is local. Those intersections include the following.
. Eastbound Elm Street at 5th Street
. Westbound Elm Street at 5th Street
. Eastbound Hickory Street at 5th Street
. Westbound Hickory Street at 5th Street
. Northbound 2nd Street at Marsh Street
. Southbound 2nd Street at Marsh Street
. Westbound Lydia Circle at Highland Road
. Westbound Highland Court at Highland Road
. Westbound Ramsey Street at Sherburne Street
. Eastbound Ramsey Street at Sherburne Street
. Westbound Sycamore Street at William Street
. Eastbound Stillwater A venue at Martha Street
. Westbound Stillwater Avenue at Martha Street
. Eastbound St. Croix A venue at Martha Street
. Westbound St. Croix Avenue at Martha Street
. Southbound Hidden Valley Court at Hidden Valley Lane
. Southbound Hillside Lane at Hidden Valley Lane
. Eastbound Hidden Valley Place at Hidden Valley Lane
. Eastbound Fairlawn Drive at Edgewood Avenue
. Eastbound Edgewood Court at Edgewood A venue
. Southbound Bayberry Drive at Hawthorne Lane
5.6 Further Study
There are also some intersections where stop signs seem to have
marginal value, but where some further study is desirable because of
the system approach. As an example, changes near the old high school,
now the middle school, may be justified based on different
compositions of traffic. These, and other studies needed, were
documented in the review of the various areas of the City. The specific
sites for additional study are described in the following paragraphs,
The intersection of 4th Street and Laurel Street has stop signs that stop
4th Street, which is a through street, and allow Laurel Street to
continue, The recommendation has been made to reverse the stop
signs, but some documentation could be done including making traffic
counts on the four approaches and reviewing the purpose of the sign
installation in the original installation.
A series of stop signs have been installed to control former high school
traffic near the intersections of Hancock Street and Marsh Street with
5th Street and 6th Street. As pointed out in the text, a reduction in the
number of stop signs is desirable, but this should be done in
conjunction with the school and the neighborhood. A basket weave

type arrangement might work better and would allow control of the
after school activities associated with the middle school.
The several intersections in the area of Owens Street, Myrtle Street,
Greeley Street, and Olive Street were studied several years ago, and no
stop sign changes were recommended. Volumes seem to have
increased, delays and backup at peak times are longer, and limited
observations show some traffic diverting to area residential streets.
The four intersections should be counted to determine if traffic.signals,
additional turn lanes, or changes in stop sign locations are needed.
The intersection of Holcomb Street and Willard Street currently has a
four-way stop control. While there appears to be some sight distance
restrictions in the intersection, traffic counts should be taken to
determine if Willard Street should continue to stop for Holcomb
Street.
Northland Boulevard at Interlachen Drive has a four-way stop control
reflecting on the previous through street concept for Interlachen Drive.
With the changes in the Long Lake area, volumes on Interlachen Drive
are relatively low, and stopping Northland Avenue may not be very
successful or desirable. The intersection of Northland A venue and
Hawthorne Lane also has an all-way stop with a unique traffic flow
pattern. Traffic counts should be made at the two intersections, and a
stop sign arrangement modification considered,
The intersection of Interlachen Drive and Mid Oaks A venue has stop
signs on all three approaches, Previously, a recommendation was made
to remove the stop signs on Interlachen Drive since Mid Oaks Avenue
is a T intersection and all traffic turns from its approach, The stopping
of lnterlachen Drive in the westbound direction, based on very limited
observations, is not adhered to. The previous study and
recommendation should be readdressed,
Fairmeadows Road either needs some additional stop signs on cross
streets or should have all stop signs removed. All intersections are T
intersections, and traffic is quite local. Observations on the street were
limited, and the desirability of continuing with stop signs that probably
are not adhered to is questionable.
As mentioned in the report, the intersection of Olive Street and Martha
Street was previously studied with recommendations made to remove
the eastbound and westbound stop signs on Olive Street. Since this
was not acted on previously, the past file should be reviewed, traffic
counts made, and a more complete recommendation should come from
the study.

5.7 Documentation and Polices
The study did not include a review of documentation for the authority
for all stop signs. It is apparent that some stop signs were installed
significantly long ago, and the reasons for the stop signs are not
readily apparent. It may be desirable for the City to review designation
of through streets for stop sign purposes and to establish a policy of
stopping all cross street traffic along these streets. These could be
named in a single resolution passed by the Council. The City attorney
should review the existing documentation and the potential need for
redocumentation,
The City also needs a policy relative to review of requests for stop sign
installation, It is apparent that in some parts of the community, such as
the Croix wood area, stop signs were installed at virtually every
intersection presumably to establish a specific right-of-way. Many of
these stop signs are not adhered to and, as pointed out in the
Background section, are violated and help lead to violations of other
more important stop signs. In other areas of the City, it appears that
some stop signs were installed as a result of either pressure or requests
from citizens at specific intersections. Even in recently developed
sections of Stillwater, such as Liberty, Legends, and Benson Farm,
stop sign installation was overdone as can be seen from the removal
recommendations and comments in this report. Ultimately, the stop
sign and through street system becomes somewhat unorganized, and
unexpected stop signs pop up or local traffic begins to ignore many of
the unjustified stop sign locations.
A review sheet used in evaluating stop signs in another community is
attached as an Appendix to this report. Stillwater should not adopt this
verbatim, but could use it as a base for a briefer evaluation document.
It is also important to set up a process for reviewing requests so that all
requests are fairly and equally reviewed,

Final PUD aooroval for Conv~ni{mc;~ G9!'!lrn~rGial Us~. Kwik Trio located at corner of CR 15/12
in the Villaae Commercial Dil5tric;t $c;h<:>tt T~igen. aOQlicant (Case SUP/03-16)
Community Development Director stated that the applicant is requesting a special use
permit for a 4,428 square foot Kwik Trip store, fuel pumps with canopy and a 1592 +/-
square foot car wash located on the corner of Manning Avenue and Settlers Way in
Liberty Village. He also stated that the use is permitted in the Village Commercial
Zoning District.
Mr. Russell stated that the Heritage Preservation Commission, Planning Commission
and the Joint Board have reviewed this plan. He stated that there is an extensive list of
conditions of approval, but suggested that two more conditions be added. The first one
being that commercial trash pickup and deliveries, including fuel should be limited to
7:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. and the other is no outdoor loud speakers,intercoms, music
speakers shall be allowed at the convenience store. He suggested that minimal
communication would be all right, but not music.
Mr. Scott Tiegen, Kwik Trip stated that the proposal attempts to keep within the New
England style of Liberty Village. He stated that the color theme of the buildings are
"Crockery Cream" siding, gables and dormers will be "Muslin White", Fascia accent .
"Colonial Red" with white trim. He also stated that the single bay carwash was
designed to resemble a covered bridge and that he has spoken with the manufacturer of
Page 60f9

.
the drier to quite the sound. He also stated that they would do everything possible to
minimize the noise from the car wash. He stated that the fuel canopy will have dark
shingles on the roof and the lighting for the pumps will be recessed into the ceiling of
the canopy.
Mr. Tiegen stated that the landscape plan is consistent with the landscaping in Liberty
Village and all mechanical equipment; trash receptacles will be screened from view of
nearby streets and adjacent structures. He stated that the light fixtures on the building
and the lights above the signs are "goose neck" colonial fixtures.
Mr. Tiegen stated that they agree with the conditions of approval, including the two that
Community Developer Russell suggested. He stated that there is a communication
system to communicate with the patrons.
Council member Kriesel asked if the 16 pumps were necessary. He stated that a lot of
people have said that the number of pumps is beyond the vision that they were told. He
stated that it seems that with 16 pumps it is shifting more to the sale of gas than the
convenience of groceries.
Mr. Tiegen stated that the price of gas will be the same as Fleet Farm, but that the
number of pumps is necessary because they do not like to have customers waiting at
the pumps.
.
Councilmember Kriesel expressed concern with the car wash and the noise it
generates.
Mr. Tiegen stated that the noise comes from the driers and that he has talked with the
manufacturer and that there should not be a problem, but if there is a concern a coating
could be placed on the drier to lower the decibels of the drier. He stated that they would
do everything possible, short of keeping the door shut, to minimize the level of noise
from the car wash. He also stated that the blowers would be located 12 feet inside the
car wash building instead of at the front doors.
Councilmember Milbrandt asked if they would be willing to limit their hours of operation
instead of 24/7 or willing to have an annual review to see if the 24/7 operations have an
impact on the neighborhood.
Mr. Tiegen stated he hesitates to agree to that because he would like a level playing
field with the competitors in the area. He also stated that if the store is not doing
business after 11 :00 p.m. that they might not be open after 11 :00 p.m., however at this
time he could not agree to a restriction of hours.
Mayor Kimble stated that he lived near the Food-n-Fuel, which was 24/7, and he was
totally oblivious to the 24/7 operation, but it was sure convenient. He stated that he did
not think it would be a problem.
.
Councilmember Rheinberger stated that he did not want to handcuff the applicant,
however he wanted to make sure that the applicant knew it might be problem.

Council member Junker stated that there is a list of conditions and restriction of hours
should not be a part of them. .
Mayor Kimble provided the history of the commercial area, which was decided before
Liberty in 1992-97. He stated that the location of the commercial area was by
intentional design.
Council member Kriesel asked Community Development Director if the commission
addressed the issue of the drier noise and if the Market Place car wash meets the noise
requirement.
Mr. Russell stated that the issue was brought up and the problems associated with the
drier, however the applicant is aware what the requirements are and staff has worked
with the applicant on that issue, so that it is not dealt with after-the-fact as was the case
with the Market Place car wash. He stated that the Market Place car wash now meets
the allowable noise level requirements.
Mr. Tiegen stated that he has met with the Rottland homes residents on the car wash
and stated that the residents were satisfied with the car wash with the limited hours.
Motion by Council member Rheinberger, seconded by Councilmember Junker to adopt
Resolution 2003-90, approving final Planned Unit Development for Convenience Commercial

City Attorney Magnuson explained that the hearing is being held to obtain information
from the public. He recommended that the actual resolution approving the district be
adopted on May 20. There will be some additional inspections of property included in
the district.
Mayor Kimble opened the Public Hearing.
Richard Kilty, 118 West Oak Street, asked why the Warden's House, the Dock Cafe and
the Andiamo property are included in the district. Mr. Magnuson stated that each district
within the scattered site has to be contiguous. Mr. Kilty also asked why the barge
terminal property is included. Mr. Magnuson stated that the increment from the district
could be used to improve the property with walkways, pedestrian pathways, lighting,
curb and gutters, etc. Mr. Kilty asked when Tax Increment District 1 and 7 expire. Mr.

Magnuson stated that District 1 expires on 2011, and District 7 will be decertified
according to the five-year rule. Mr. Kilty also stated, that according to today's Pioneer.
Press, the City will obtain $2 million from the Territorial Prison site. He asked what the
City intends to do with that money. Mayor Kimble stated that that is a separate issue not
related to the public hearing and that council had not addressed that issue as yet.
Vern Stefan, a landowner in TIF District 1, asked why the City is moving parcels from
TIF District 1 to TIF District 10 and what parcels are being moved from 1 to 10. Mr.
Magnuson answered that the 501 N. Main (Lofts of Stillwater), the parking lot north of
the Lumber Baron's Hotel, city parking lots around the Hotel and some property by the
Dock Cafe. Mr. Stefan asked what sort of increment would be produced by those
parcels if they remained in District 1. Mr. Magnuson replied that it is likely only the Lofts
of Stillwater would produce any increment. Mr. Stefan asked about extending the life of
TIF District 1. Mr. Magnuson pointed out that a request for extension of the TIF District
could not be presented to the Legislature until closer to the time of expiration. Mr.
Stefan questioned why the new parcels could not be put into District 1 rather than
create a new district. Mr. Magnuson stated that the effort would be the same as to
create a new district. Since District 1 will only last until 2011 it seemed more logical to
create a district that will last for 25 years.
There being no additional comments Mayor Kimble closed the hearing.

RE:
Stillwater Yacht Club
I enclose a copy of. the Municipal License that was given to the Stillwater Yacht Club in
.
1999. We have been informed that the Yacht Club has been sold and the new owner is Stillwater
Marina, LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company. The terms of the License provide that the
City must approval any transfer and therefore, I suppose, this should go on the agenda for
consideration at the May 6th meeting. Perhaps a copy of the License and this memo could be
circulated to the City Council in their packets. It conceivably could be a matter for the consent
agenda.

controlled by security personnel while alcohol is being served. A security guard must be in
place to insure that no beer or liquor enter or leave the fenced Area.
Signage will be prominently displayed at each entry/exit point to notify guests that no

8. Insurance. The Chamber must provide to the City satisfactory proof that it has
obtained liability insurance that names the Chamber and the City as an additional insured, as

approved by the City Police Chief, describing the regulations prohibiting liquor outside of the
Area, as well as the prohibition against participants bringing their own liquor into the Area.
Signage must also indicate identification required to purchase alcohol.
10. Noise Control. The Event is responsible to control the noise emanating from the
Area at a level that will not interfere with the peace and repose of the residential area on the
bluffs on the north, west and south edges of the downtown.

MEMORANDUM

TO: Mayor and City Council
.;S
FROM: Shawn Sanders, Assistant City Engineer
DATE: May 1,2003
SUBJECT: McKusick Lake Boardwalk Improvements
Change Order No.1
Project 2002-04C
DISCUSSION:
The original plans for the boardwalk improvements on Lake Mckusick specified
the deck material to be treated wood. After consideration by the engineering department,
it was felt that weathering could have a major affect on the life of the treated wood for the
decking material and would be a future maintenance nightmare. Staff looked into an
alternative to replace the treated wood, and decided that a wood/plastic composite would
be least affected by weathering. Switching to the composite material, adds to the cost of
the project by $13,869.00
. RECOMMENDATION:
Staff feels the composite material is best choice for the project and feels
additional cost is reasonable. It is recommended that Change Order 1 for the McKusick
Lake Boardwalk Improvements (Project 2002-C) be approved.
ACTION REOUIRED:
If Council concurs with the recommendation, they should pass a motion adopting
Resolution No. 2003-- APPROVAL OF CHANGE ORDER NO.1 FOR THE
McKUSICK STORM SEWER/TRAIL IMPROVEMENTS (Project 2002-04C)
.
APPROVAL OF CHANGE ORDER #1 FOR THE

BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Stillwater, Minnesota, that Change Order
#1 in the amount of $13,869.00 to change wood decking to composite material for the McKusick
Lake Boardwalk Improvements Project is hereby approved:

TO: Mayor and City Council

DATE: May 1, 2003
SUBJECT: Revised Cable Communications Commission Fiscal Year 2003 Budget
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
.
Attached is the revised budget for fiscal year 2003 for the Central St. Croix Valley Joint
Cable Communications Commission and Valley Access Channel Budgets. The revised
budgets need to be approved by all member cities. The revised budgets are balanced
budgets because revenues equal expenditures. I have also attached the original budget for
comparison to the revised budget. I have reviewed the revised budget and it appears that
the revisions are reasonable and appropriate.
RECOMMENDATION
Council consider adoption of resolution approving revised fiscal year 2003 Central St.
Croix Valley Joint Cable Communications and Valley Access Channel Budgets.

Mr. Larry Hansen, Administrator

Dear Larry,
The Central St. Croix Valley Cable Commission submits our budgets to our cities each
year and requests approval. We got that last fall; it is not unusual for us to have to
amend the budget once our end of the year figures are in. At our meeting of April 16
the Cable Commission approved revised budgets for the Commission and for Valley
Access Channels for the 2003 fiscal year and we are asking our Cities once again for
approval.
I'd appreciate a note from you once the City has approved our budgets.
.
Thanks!
Sincerely,
tllrd)) (V, d. _ r.'\

For your use Tuesday evening May 6, 2003.
The Stillwater Parks Commission should be very interested in these two city properties
that some one is trying to get vacated for their own personal gain.
The Seaquist family many times used the ROAD around the S. E. corner of McKusick Lake
up until about 1960. That is when the Mayor and City Council were conned into vacating
that property on the lake as shown by arrow. The person who acquired it built a bungalow.
t6o'close to the lake, yet the rear of the house was over the property line. That was at
a time when a half-time electrician / half-time building inspector served the city.
The Parks Department should have these properties to complete the trail system from
City Hall via the new McKusick Ravine Trail to McKu~ick Lake~and around it, as best that
it can be accomplished. The neighbors also do not want\those properties vacated.
Duane Seaquist

Street Vacation Request for Meadowlark Drive and North Sherburne.
Case Nos. SV/03-01 and SV/03-02
.
The City received two street vacations for the same area. The location is south east of
McKusick Lake, just east of Center Street. Currently, driveway access to a residence
located at 1104 Meadowlark Drive is provided along a portion of the right of way.
A reason for this request is that the garage located at the 1104 Meadowlark Drive
residence is over the right of way (Sherburne Street right of way).
Utility lines are located on a portion of the right of way and the area is in an open space
condition.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the requests at their meeting of
April 14, 2003. At that meeting neighbors expressed concern for the vacation, i.e.,
possible loss of open space, loss of access to vacant lots (minutes attached).
As a result of the hearing and consideration of staff report including city engineer
comments, the Planning Commission recommended denial of both street vacation
requests. They were sympathetic to the garage being located on the right oway but did
not feel the requested vacation was necessary to address the issue.
Recommendation: Consideration of Planning Commission denial of street vacation
requests.
Additional Information: At the council staff meeting, it was suggested a partial
vacation or city licence could be considered to address the garage on right of way issue.
Also, DNR memo received after CPC meeting regarding unregulated filling and support
of open space.
Attachments: CPC staff reports, SV/03-01 and SV/03-02 and minutes of April
. 14,2003, DNR memo of April 30, 2003.

Reason for Wanting to Vacate Meadowlark Drive
.
The present homeowners of 1104 Meadowlark Drive and 503 North Center
Street are proposing the city of Stillwater vacate Meadowlark Drive, for the
reasons of:
· Meadowlark Drive has been used as a dump site for many years and
due to this the natural beauty of the ravine is being overlooked
· There is a sewer pipe that runs under Meadowlark Drive, that pipe
only services one house, 1104, the present and future homeowner's do
not foresee any problems with giving the city clearance to maintain
that pipe or any other future maintenance of underground utilities that
my come about
· Both houses (1104 Meadowlark Drive and 503 N. Center Street) are
presently using an easement from the city, in order to enter their
properties via the non-vacated part of Meadowlark Drive

Reason for Wanting to Vac~te North Sherburne Street
The home abutting North Sherburne Street is 1104 Meadowlark
Drive, which back in the 70' s built an addition to their home,
which actually was partially built on Sherburne Street; with
supposedly only a handshake for an agreement between the
homeowner and the city of Stillwater. Now in order to avoid
possible future conflicts between the present and future
homeowners of 1104 Meadowlark Drive, we would like to petition
to have part of North Sherburne Street vacated, per attached map.

Subject:
Requests for Vacation of Meadowlark Drive and N. Sherburne Street
DISCUSSION
The Planning Commission has received a request for a street vacation on Meadowlark
Drive and N. Sherburne Street. As an overall practice Public Works and Engineering
recommend that we take a strategy of trying to preserve right-of-way and easements
whenever possible. Right-of~ways are used for street construction and in addition
provide areas for public utilities and stormwater conveyance and management systems. .
Finally they provide valuable sidewalk and pedestrian routes throughout our town. The
particular request proposed would give up a large portion of right-of-way in the
immediate vicinity ofMcKusick Lake. This right~of-way may have important future
benefits for access to the area around the lake including meeting the objectives of the
comprehensive trail plan.
RECOMMENDATION
The Engineering and Public Works Department recommends denial of the vacation
request, with the exception of perhaps the vacation of that portion of right-of-way where
the home encroaches.

Stillwater, MN 55082
4-25-03
Dear Mr. Russell,
I am the property owner most effected by Case SV/03-01 and SV/03-02 the vacation of
parts of Meadowlark Drive and Sherburne Street. I own four lots on Sherburne St.
directly west of the vacation request. It would cut off all access from my property to the
west (the sewer is there to serve my property)(also my best choice for road) and leave me
with out any legal access of any kind to two or three of my four lots. It would completely
reduce their value to the benefit of Mr. Mutter's.
I would like to know how Mr. Mutter received permission to fill in part of Sherburne St
adjacent to his property last spring and early summer. He had between thirty and fifty
large dump truck loads dumped mainly into the wet land area of Sherburne Street. I told
him several times what he was doing was illegal and he needed a permit he responded
that basically it was his property and he could do any thing to it that he wished. The fill
was raising the water level in the wet land area up into my garden and when I continued
to complain to him about it he got a pump and pumped out six to twelve inches of water
out of the swamp in to the lake to get me off his back.
Several of us neighbors had Molly Shodeen the area hydrologist from DNR come out and
she said that Mr. Mutter definitely needed a permit to fill in the land and another permit
to drain any water out of a wet land area. So we are wondering ifhe had any permits and
if not he must be in violation of several city ordinances.
.
t
Weare also concerned about the person who owns the property on the southeast comer of
Center Street and Meadowlark Drive. He has built a rock garden or what ever you want
to call it that protrudes into both Center Street and Meadowlark Drive. Again unless he
had a permit to build it there he must also be in violation of at least one city ordinance for
building on city property. A neighbor also told him that he was building it on the Street
and was told that it was his property and he could do anything with it he wanted. He has
built his garden with a fence so close to Center Street that it is impossible to plow the
snow off the street ....ut'.erly.
Thank you for your kind attention to this matter.

Mutter Street Vacations, Lake McKusick
It is my understanding that the city is considering vacation of North
Sherburne. St. and Meadowlark Drive extended. It is the pollicy of DNR
to oppose street vacations in shore land areas where they would eliminate
public access to the water body, even if it is only for unimproved
neighborhood walking access. These areas are typically unmaintained and
besides public access, provide the neighborhood with a small parcel of
natural habitat that has wildlife values as well. Generally, when
streets are vacated, they are just converted to lawn by the property
owner, which eliminates habitat and allows more nutrients to wash off of
additional lawn area. Sometimes these street rights-of-way can provide
links to future trail planning efforts.
In this case, there appears to be some filling that has occurred
without any local permits. Since the area is a small wetland that is
under the jurisdiction of the 1991 Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) , the
fill should be evaluated and the wetland delineated to determine if a
WCA violation has occurred. Filling around the trees to this depth may
elliminate them over time. We recommend that if the fill is allowed to
remain, it should be planted with native grasses and forbs to add
diversity and should not be mowed or fertilized.

Case No. SV/03-01. A street vacation request for a 330-foot portion of
unimproved Meadowlark Drive (south of McKusick Lake) from Center Street
to extended unimproved North Sherburne Street. Tony Mutter, applicant.
Mr. Mutter requested a street vacation for an unimproved. area .of
Meadowlark Drive (south of McKusick Lake) from Center Street to
extended unimproved North Sherburne Street. Mr. Mutter stated that he
has been maintaining and improving the property and the City is using it
as a dump.
The City Engineer stated in a letter that right of ways and easements
should be preserved for various reasons.
Duane Seaquist, resident of Mount Vernon Condos would like to see a
trail system be put in. He is against the street vacation.
Tim Luell, 503 N Center Street was concerned about access to his land if
it was not vacated.
David Haak, 504 Owens Street, owns four lots in the area. His lots are
build able and there is the ability to hook up to sewer. If the street were
vacated he would not have access to his land. He is against the street
vacation. Mr. Haak also stated that City dumped concrete and asphalt on
the site not people in the neighborhood.
Tom Voves, 518 Owens Street inquired about the trolley land on the other
side of J.C. fields.
Ronald Zaniewski, 1112 W. Linden, this subject has been heard three
times since he has lived there. He would like the land left the way it is.
Does not want the street vacated. He would like the land to stay green
space but a trail is debatable.
Kenneth Kress, 403 N. Sherburne Street, felt that the land is good for wild
life and should be left as is. He is against the street vacation.
t
Christopher Waterman, 420 Owens Street, wants the land to stay the way
it is and is against the street vacation.
Nancy Brown, former owner of 1104 Meadowlark, inquired if the City
would hold public hearing on trail. Community Director Russell informed
Ms. Brown that there are no requirements to hold public hearing, but that
public inpuf has been requested.

Variance Request to Bluffland Shoreland Ordinance
v
Background: The variance site is located in the DNR Bluffland Shoreland District.
Because it is in that district the City Council is required to finally decide the variance
request for the City. Variances in the Bluffland Shoreland District also require DNR
Certification after City approval.
The Variance Request: The variance is for a deck located on the river side of the
residence. The proposal is to demolish the existing residence and to build a residence
that conforms to the bluffland shoreland setback regulations with the exception of the
deck (see attached staff report and plans).
In addition to the deck variance, a variance is needed for the street, front yard setback
because the house is being pushed away from the river.
Attached to the staff report are comments from the DNR.
The Planning Commission heard the request at their meeting of April 14, 2003. At that
meeting, adjacent residences expressed concern for the possible impact of views from
properties located west of Lakeside Drive.
The Planning Commission reviewed the application, plans and comments from the DNR
and approved the variance with six conditions of approval.
Additional Information: Since the April 14,2003, Planning Commission meeting, the
applicant has decided to eliminate the staircase to a roof deck (see letter of April 23,
2003). This change addresses concern for neighborhood privacy expressed by DNR
and planning staff.
Recommendation: Consideration of Planning Commission recommendation of
approval. '

Dear Steve:
Regarding the above-entitled matter, I wish to advise you that my clients, Matt
McGuire and Andrea Saterbak, have authorized me to advise you that they have agreed to comply
with the staff's recommendation to remove the roof deck and the stailWell/entrance from the design
of their remodeling project.
It is my understanding that the elimination of these two items from the design results
in my clients now complying in all respects with the staff's recommendations and proposed
conditions of approval regarding the subject variance request. If this is not the case, I would
appreciate your contacting me.
Once again, thank you for your ongoing cooperation regarding this project.
Yours very truly,

PLANNING APPLICATION REVIEW FORM
CASE NO. V/03-31
.
Planning Commission Date: April 14, 2003
Project Location: 122 Lakeside Drive
Comprehensive Plan District: Single Family
Zoning District: RB/BS
Applicants Name: Matthew McGuire and Andrea Saterbak
Type of Application: Variance
Project Description: Request to construct residence with variance to Bluff and Front yard setbacks..
Discussion: The proposal is to remove the existing residence and to reconstruct a new residence.
The new residence would meet the 100 foot shoreland setback and the main residential structure
meet the 40 foot bluffline setback requirement. A proposed 274 square foot deck would extend a
maximum of 19 feet into the bluff setback.

variance to the front yard setback for the new structure is requested to move the residence away
from the river. A setback of 16'5" is requested for the front facing garage and a stair well/entrance
as proposed would be setback12 feet.
Besides the rear deck, a third level roof deck is proposed for the structure. The roof deck could.
effect neighborhood privacy and be a new design element for the neighborhood.
It is recommended that if the variance for the first level deck is approved, the roof deck would be
eliminated from the design.
Recommendation: Approval of first level deck bluff variance and front yard setbacks with removal
of the roof deck.
Proposed Findings: The proposed development replaces the development impacts on the St. Croix

Mcguire variances
I agree that the deck would be more appropriate on the riverside than to
raise the roof to accomodate a stair structure to a roof deck. Without
the roof deck structures, the roofline elevation would not change much
from what is currently there. We do have concerns about the amount of
impervious surface, is it under the 20%? The plans I received show
existing impervious surface at 22%, but do not show proposed
calculations. We also have concerns about the septic adequacy. I don't
think the city should allow a structure without adequate septic
capability unless there is a guaranteed plan and construction timetable
for sanitary sewer. In these days of tight budgets, it is difficult to
make guarantees. There have been a lot of problems with septic adequacy
and site suitability in this subdivision and we would oppose a variance
if the septic is not up to code and certified to accomodate the increase
in bedrooms. I would also recommend that a landscape plan be developed
that includes plans to stabilize any areas of the bluff that may be
eroding. The site must be heaviliy protected with erosion control during
construction, including street cleaning if material is tracked off site.
The use of heavy equipment on the bluff side must be minimized. The
color of all trim, roof and sidinig materials must be earth or summer
vegetation tones.
Please include my comments in the hearing record. 1 plan on attending
~e hearing. When will it be on the agenda?

Re:
Matt McGuire/Andrea Saterbak
Setback Variance Request
122 Lakeside Drive, Stillwater
.
Dear Steve:
As you are aware, I represent Matt McGuire and Andrea Saterbak who reside at 122
Lakeside Drive in the City of Stillwater. My clients desire to rebuild their existing home and in
order to do so, setback variances are required. Enclosed please find their Application and in support
of their Application, 16 copies of a Site Survey, a Partial Site Plan and a Preliminary Section of the
proposed new home.
As set forth on the Site Plan, the existing residential structure encroaches into the 40
foot bluffland setback and the 100 foot shoreland setback. It is the desire of my client to bring the
proposed new residential structure into compliance with the bluffland and shoreland ordinances, and
in order to do so, it will be necessary to demolish the existing home and rebuild it. . A total of 274
square feet of the existing residential structure is in violation of the current bluffland and shoreland
setbacks and will be removed. 191 square feet of the existing structure presently encroaches on the
40 foot bluff land setback and 83 feet presently encroaches on the 100 foot shoreland setback. In
addition, the existing deck, which is 381 square feet in size and which is presently located totally
within the shoreland and bluffland setback area will be removed. The area of the proposed new
'\ deck is 274 square feet and that will require a variance of 19 feet from the 100 foot shoreland
setback. The proposed structure will also require front yard setback variance of 13.5 feet since it is
proposed to be constructed with a setback of 16.5 feet and the required setback is 30 feet. A narrow
stair tower leading to a proposed potential roof deck would also require a front yard setback
variance since it is proposed to have a 12 foot setback.
.
'"
;
.
.
.
With the exception of the narrow stair tower, it is the intent to reconstruct the
residential structure so that the roof line of the new structure will be at or near the roof line of the
existing dwelling. The new structure will have three bedrooms similar to the existing structure. The
existing drainage pattern will not be significantly changed~ Every attempt will be made to direct roof
water toward the street, rather than toward the river.
No modifications of the septic system will be required regarding this project and the
existing septic system was installed in 1999. My clients desire to hook up to city sewer as soon as it
becomes available.
The home is proposed to be built of natural wood and St. Croix Valley limestone.
The proposed new home will continue to be visually inconspicuous from the river.
No existing trees are proposed to be affected by the construction project and there will be
professional landscaping done as a part of the project.
The new home will be setback further from the St. Croix River than the neighboring
homes on each side and the front yard setbacks will be approximately the same as the neighboring
homes.
To the best of my clients' knowledge, none of their neighbors have any objections to
the new structure, as proposed.
Because of the various setback requirements, this 13,457 square foot lot is
unbuildable without the requested variances. I believe my clients have shown that they have made
every reasonable effort to comply with the bluffland and shore land setback requirements, but as a
result, they will need a variance for the deck and the front yard setbacks. I believe my clients have
shown that they would like to use their property in a reasonable manner that is prohibited by the
Ordinances. Specifically, regarding the findings that the Planning Commission needs to make, I
submit the following:
A. Because of the overlapping setback requirements, a residential structure
cannot be located on the subject property without variances being granted. My
clients have made every reasonable effort to fully comply with the bluffland and
shoreland setbacks and as a result, they do require a variance for the deck which will
be much further removed from the river than the original deck, and front yard
setbacks.
B. The use of the subject property for residential purposes cannot happen
without variances being granted and the plight of my clients is due to the
circumstances unique to this property and not created by them.
2
4
\.
C. The variances, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality .
since the proposed home will be set back further from the river than the neighboring
homes and will set back a similar distance from the street as the neighboring homes.
D. Strict enforcement of the setback requirements is impractical since the result
would be that no home could be located on this property.
E. The variances, if granted, are necessary for the preservation and enjoyment
of my client's property rights and, if granted, would not constitute a special privilege
not enjoyed by neighbors.
F. The granting of the variances would not be of substantial detriment to
adjacent properties and would not entirely impair the purpose and the intent of the
City Ordinances or the public interest or adversely affect the Comprehensive Plan.
G. I am also aware that the provisions in the Zoning Ordinance relating to
substandard lots, provide in relevant part that lots in the bluffland/shoreland overlay
district that do not meet requirements, such as setback requirements may be allowed
as building sites when the dimensional standards are complied with to the greatest
extent practicable. As set forth above, we believe we have met this test because the
setback standards from the river have now been met, with the exception of the deck,
and the requested setbacks from the street are the minimum setbacks needed in order
to construct the proposed home.
Should you need any additional information or should you have additional questions .
regarding the requested variances, I would appreciate you giving me a call. Thank you for your
excellent cooperation to date regarding this matter.

Information regarding a street name change...
Changing the name of a street would involve the subsequent
changing of at least all of the following:
. Mortgage documents
. Mortgage Insurance documents
. Health & Life Insurance documents
. Vehicle Registrations
. Drivers licenses
. Checking accounts
. Saving accounts
. Business cards
. Letter heads
. All bills
. Any correspondence from family & friends
. Etc.
...and since many maps would not change for a year or two, one can
only quess at the confusion that might cause.
In all cases it would involve the time and effort to make these
changes, and in some cases there would also be monetary costs.

Request to Change Street Name of South 6th Avenue to South
Broadway
Background: At the December 3,2002, City Council meeting, the council considered
renaming a portion of 6th Avenue South to South Broadway (Staff report attached). At
that meeting, the request was referred to the Heritage Preservation Commission for
review and comment on the historical impact of the name change.
To:
From:
Date:
Subject:
.
Heritage Preservation Commission Review: On February 3,2003, the Heritage
Preservation Commission reviewed the name change and could not see significant
historical impact to the neighborhood of the change.
Further Action: Since the original consideration, the petitioner has requested an
extension of the street name change from 6th Avenue South to South Broadway
extending to Orleans.
It is suggested that if the council wants to further pursue the request, a public hearing
be held to review comments from effected property owners (a change of address can
cause significant inconvenience).
Recommendation: Direction on street name change request.

Petition for Street Name Chanoe - South 6th Ave. to South Broadwav.
Mayor Kimble reviewed the request for the change in street name of South 6th Avenue
to South Broadway and stated that Council has three options the first being that
Council could elect to change the street name as requested. This would change the
name of South 6th Avenue to South Broadway between Triangle Park and Churchill, a
one block section; or City Council could hold a public hearing on the proposed street
name change and notify property owners in the surrounding area, then make a decision
based on results of the public hearing; or City Council could elect to take no action on
the matter and leaving the street names in place.
Councilmember Zoller stated that he is not sure that Broadway connects to 6th Avenue
legally. He stated that he would hate to do something that may affect some of the old
plats of the City of Stillwater or the history of the City. He recommended that the m~tter
be referred to the Historic Preservation Commission for research and to make sure that
we are not disrupting some of the old history and bring it back to a public hearing.
Mayor Kimble stated he agreed with Councilmember Zoller and that another issue is in
terms of maps and identifying whether 6th Avenue South should become Broadway all
the way to Orleans. He felt that more comprehensive information is needed before a
change is made. . .
Councilmember Rheinberger agreed with Councilmember Zoller and Mayor Kimble and
stated that he would like to see some public input and consider the whole street.
Mr. Peroceschi stated that he would be in favor of the whole street being changed. He
also stated that he talked to Beth Diem and she stated that the name change should
stop at Churchill.
City Attorney Magnuson stated that legal descriptions wouldn't change, only the mailing
address of the people affected.
Councilmember Zoller stated that before the public meeting the other affected property
owners should be notified of the proposed name change.
Motion by Councilmember Milbrandt, seconded by Councilmember Rheinberger directing this
issue to the Historical Preservation Commission for review, research and recommendation and
return item to Council for a public hearing. All in favor.
COUNCIL REQUEST ITEMS
Councilmember Bealka asked that the report to the State Preservation Office be placed
on the next agenda. .

RE:
2003 Seal Coat Project
DISCUSSION
This year it proposed that the City have another Seal Coat Project. Seal coating increases
the life of a street by adding a protective coating layer of fine aggregate and emulsion.
The streets proposed for this year's project include Driftwood Lane, Edgewood Avenue
and Court, Fairlawn Drive, Interlachen Drive, Pineridge Lane, Cottonwood Court,
Bayberry Avenue, Hillside Lane, Boutwell Court and Place, Maryknoll Drive and
Pinehurst Lane.
.
Two other communities, West Lakeland and Baytown Township, have asked to be
included in with the bidding of the project. This increases the quantities in the Bid
Proposal and generally provides better bid prices for all than if each community bid their
own project separately. Stipulations have been inserted in the specifications that the
contractor who is awarded the contract will bill each community individually.
The total estimated cost for the three communities is $100,000. The City of Stillwater
portion is budgeted at $40,000.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council approve the plans and specifications for the 2003 Seal
Coat Project and order the advertisement for bids.

Request for City Grant Match Fund
On January 14,2003, the Council authorized staffto apply for a Certified Local Government
Grant (CLG) for the architectural study of the Staples & Mays Addition for the National Register
Identification and Evaluation Study (see attached memo). The State HPC grant was for $4,500 a
City match of $4,500. On April 15, 2003, the City received word that the Minnesota Historical
Society's Grants Review Committee approved the City's request. Due to Community
Developments' budget cuts, no funds for professional services are available.
Although funds have been cut, this is being brought to the Council for consideration because it is
an opportunity to match City funds $1 for $1 with State funds.
Recommendation: Consider reinstating $4,500 of City funds for Planning Professional Services.

STONEBRIDGE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
April 29, 2003
Stillwater City Council
216 North 4th Street
Stillwater, MN 55082
Dear Council Members:
Just to the northwest of Stonebridge Elementary School lies a property
that was dedicated to the city of Stillwater as parkland. This land
contains a stand of red pines, many of which were damaged by a storm, as
well as a wetland. Recently, a forester from the Minnesota Department of
Natural Resources (DNR) visited the site and recommended that native
trees be planted in the understory to eventually replace the damaged
trees.
Stonebridge Elementary students would like to help enhance and maintain
this forest so close to their school. Therefore, Stonebridge Elementary
School is requesting a partnership with the city of Stillwater. We would
like you to allow children from the elementary school to do future
native plantings on this property in cooperation with the city. Also,
removal of invasive species such as buckthorn. Finally, we would also
like your approval to look into the possibility of certifying this
property as a DNR School Forest. This would give the school access to
free educational resources available only through the School Forest
Program.
If you have any questions please feel free to call me at (651)
351-8736. Thank you for your consideration.

Minnesota School Forest Program
Overview
.
What a School Forest looks like:
Minnesota has 95 School Forests, roughly one half were acquired as tax-forfeited
land. The remaining lands were purchased out right or donated to the school.
Land size ranges from I acre to 360 acres. The land must have at least one tree-
we have sections of prairie, which are under the School Forest Program.
Each School Forest has an appointed Chair and School Forest Committee who
make decisions. Committee members can be school administrators, teachers,
community members, parents, district representatives, DNR staff, local nature
center staff, and university/college professors.
· Schools apply by filling out an application and passing a school board resolution
designating an area as a School Forest. A DNR Forester or School Forest
Coordinator typically reviews land to make sure it is suitable as a learning area.
Requirements:
Schools are required to conduct at least one educational activity with their
students each year.
The School Forest Chair is required to submit an annual report to the School
Forest Coordinator in June of every year.
.
If either of the above conditions is not met, School Forest status can be revoked. All
School Forests are also asked to write a Stewardship Plan for their land with their area
DNR Forester.
Benefits:
· DiaLOGue - The School Forest newsletter is mailed to anyone who uses a school
forest three times each school year.
.
Support Mailings - Three times each school year a support mailing is sent to the
School Forest Chair. These mailings contain: posters; curriculums; resource
listings; website resources; free opportunities for MN schools; information from
MN DNR, Office of Environrnental Assistance, and Dept of Children, Families,
and Learning.
.
Area Foresters - DNR regional and area foresters support all school forests.
Schools may seek assistance planning a trail, timber harvest, tree identification,
construction projects, education activities, stewardship plans, etc. Area foresters
have school forest support written into their job description.
.
. .
i
~,
.
.
.
.
School Forest Coordinator - All schools are encouraged to contact and utilize
resources available through the Coordinator, such as grant writing support,
curriculum, educational materials, connections to other DNR divisions,
PLTIWILD/WET, legal advice, contacts to other organizations, etc.
Resources - The School Forest Program is run in conjunction withMN PLT and
all other forestry education programs, providing easy access to resource and
development of materials that can be easily used in a school forest.
· DNR Support - The Minnesota Conservation Corps works with many school
forests to provide technical and labor support for work/construction and education
projects. Members of other divisions (wildlife, ecological services, etc.) also
provide support for special projects.
School Forest Annual Reports
Each June the School Forest Chairs are required to submit an annual report describing
school forest activities during the year. This report allows us to keep current information
on the appropriate contact/chair for each School Forest and ensure that education
activities are happening on their land. The reports generate ideas to be featured in future
issues of the DiaLOGue, as well as identify schools that may need assistance from the
Coordinator.
School Forest Handbook
The Handbook is used primarily as a base for schools to start from. It is a basic how to
set up and use a school forest. We plan to update the handbook to include more resource
materials and create an on-line version. Each School Forest Committee receives a copy
of the Handbook, as well as the Area DNR Foresters.
How it started:
In 1949 the Minnesota Legislature passed a mandate allowing designation of tax - forfeited
land as School Forest. The purpose ofthis land designation was to encourage educators
to utilize nature as an outdoor classroom. The mandate also required that these tax-
forfeited School Forest lands be supported by the State of Minnesota (MN DNR)
Today, School Forests are comprised of both tax-forfeited and private/school owned
lands. We ask all School Forests to comply with the same standards to maintain their
status. Tax forfeited lands must be used for educational purposes and any money
generated from sale of timber must return to the school. If these conditions are not met,
the school could lose their land.

UPDATE
More Transit Options
Fewer Highway Hassles
An update for policy makers and opinion leaders around the
state from the Metro Transitways Development BOa,rd
April 2003 ~
The Minnesota Rides Vision ~
The Metro T ransitways Development Board is proposing a comprehensive project priority and financing plan to
support roadway improvements, better bus service and new transitways. Called "Minnesota Rides,n this legislation is a
cost-effective plan that identifies the ne,v funding options and transportation priorities that are
needed if we are to start making measurable improvements in solving transportation problems
affecting people and businesses throughout Minnesota.
The MTDB understands the critical importance of roads. That's why we've created a balanced and cost-effective
financing plan offering more support for road improvements as well as transitways and traditional bus service.
Minnesota Rides-3 Key Ingredients:
1. . Roadway improvements 2. Better bus service 3. New transitways
The Minnesota Rides Legislative Proposal
.
1.
This legislation creates a four-point Minnesota Rides financing plan to address the growing transportation challenges:
Referendum Authorizing a Half Cent Metro-Wide Sales Tax
The legislature'should authorize a referendum on adding a half cent sales tax in a multi-county metro service
area for a 1O-year period. If voters approve the referendum:
Proceeds will fund both major transit capital projects and major highway projects.
An additional $217 million will be raised in 2005 (2002 estimate).
2. Six-Cent Gas Tax Increase
The gas tax was last raised in 1988.
The tax will generate $192 million more a year. This will allow for a $113 million increase in the state's
highway construction budget and $79 million for counties, cities and townships.
A Minnesotan who drives 15,000 miles a year in a car that gets 15 miles to a gallon will pay $60 more a
year.
3. Accelerated Highway Bonding
Bonds should be issued to accelerate the construction schedule on high priority highway projects and to take
advantage of low interest rates, Debt service will be derived from new gas tax revenues.
4.
New license Tab Fee Schedule
A new schedule for license tab fees should be adopted that will generate more money into the Highway User
Tax Distribution Fund. This will allow a greater percentage of motor vehicle excise tax revenues to fund new
transit operations,
The goal is to eventually raise more than $100 million a year for transit operations. The amount and
timing will depend on a number of decisions, including the details of a new schedule and the phasing of
implementation.
This investment will be made without any additional cost to the state's general fund, while
maintaining the integrity of the Highway User Tax Distribution Fund,
.

A Joint Powers Board of Metropolitan Counties
Funding Transit Operations
How transit operations are
funded elsewhere in the country
The most common way communities generate locally
dedicated funds to support transit operations is
through sales taxes. A survey of 32 large transit
systems found that 18 -marc than half- relied on sales
tax as the primary source of funds in 2001. In
communities with transit systems comparable to the
Twin Cities, including Atlanta, Cleveland, Dallas,
Denver, Phoenix, Orange County, and Salt Lake City -
a dedicated sales tax provides the major source of
transit funding in each area.
Of the 32 systems reviewed, only four used property
taxes as a funding source for transit operations in
2001. User fares represent a significant contribution
to transit operating cost in each community. Of the
16 systems that have rail, none of them assess rail
operatjng costs jndependently.
How transit operations are
currently funded in Minnesota
Roughly half of transit operating funds come from the
sales tax on the purchase of motor vehicles, The other
half comes from general funds and the farebox.
It has been suggested that 60 percent of the operating
costs for the state's new Hiawatha LRT line be paid
by local governments where the line will run -
Minneapolis, Bloomington and Hennepin County.
From the Metro Transitways Development Board's
perspective, transitways are integral elements of the
regional system that moves people around the metro
area between home, work and recreation
destinations.
Attempting to assign benefits or costs of regional
transit improvement to a selected local area is not
practical, Regional transitways, just like regional
highways, should be paid by a combination of state
and regional resources.
Who is the MTDB?
"
The Metro T ransitways Development Board is
comprised of regional railroad authority
representatives from the seven-county metro area. Th.
MTDB has been working on transitway developmen
since 1992 and continues to support the development
of a comprehensive transit system that includes
commuter rail, LRT and busway options.
The Metro Transitways Development Board works to
provide a coordinated regional approach to rail and
transit development, from policy creation to legislative
proposals. These seven counties represent an
important source of initiative and capital financing for
transitway projects, They are also key to coordinating
roadway and transit improvements in our
communities.
What WeTe Hearing....
"A roads-only solution is not fiscally responsible,
nor can it meet the mobility needs of the nearly
one million new residents projected by year
2020. The state would have to build 99 new
lane miles a year to keep pace with travel
demand...Light rail is part of a transit network
that will include a vital bus system and
commuter rail."
- Jules Smith, Metropolitan Council Member, District 4,
quoted in the Jordan Independent, July 11, 2002.
"Nowhere is it written that Minnesotans must be
confined to traveling only on roadways. Offering
choice is consistent with market principles,
especially when the price is lower. Employing
under-used railroad right-of-way for moving
people, whether by commuter trains, light-rail
lines or busways, makes sense."
- Excerpt from Star Tribune editorial, April 7, 2003.
Reprinted with permission.
Paul Anton, an economist and member of the Council of Economic Advisors for Minnesota was commissioned by
the Northstar Corridor Development Authority to conduct an independent economic analysis of the project. H'
study updated an earlier calculation of the benefits and costs conducted by MnDOT. The Anton analysi
concluded that a benefit of $l.lS will be realized for every federal, state, and local dollar spent on Northstar.
Commuter rail was. also shown to be the most cost-effective option for the corridor when compared to other
alternatives, To find out more about Anton's study, go to www.ITlll-GetOnBoard.com.
