Pleasant View Drive Street Rehabilitation Project:
On May 22, 2023, the City Council approved a street rehabilitation project for the section of Pleasant View Drive located between County Road I and County Road H2. This street project will be in conjunction with the City of Fridley for they own Stinson Boulevard.

Neighborhood Meeting
A neighborhood meeting for the project was held on May 24, 2023, 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm, in the Council Chambers of the Mounds View City Hall, 2401 Mounds View. 

What will the project consist of?
10’ drive lanes will be installed to include an 8’ in width parking lane on the West section of the street with a 2’ foot reaction zone on the East section.  The project will also include replacing the concrete curb and gutter on the East side and spot replacement on the West side. Also, a 10 foot wide shared use trail,  placed directly behind the curb on the East side of Pleasant View Drive will be installed with the project. 
As with past  City street projects, the property owner is offered the opportunity to modify their driveway apron through the City's Private Improvement Program (PIP). 

What is the Private Improvement Program?
The Private Improvement Program, or PIP, provides property owners an opportunity to have improvements to their driveway  constructed as part of the Street Rehabilitation Project. The private improvements are limited to work within the Right-of-Way and consists of modifying (increasing/decreasing) an existing driveway apron width per City Code; and other modifications to existing non-conforming driveway aprons (setbacks, widths, multiple) subject to City policy. The cost for the private improvement will be paid entirely by the property owner and requires approval by the City prior to constructing the private improvement. Participation in the PIP is not required and is voluntarily. If interested in modifying your driveway apron, contact Community Development, 763-717-4020. (Deadline and the costs for the driveway modification PIP will be posted on this website soon.)

NOTE: T.A. Schifsky & Sons, 651-777-1313 is the contractor for this street project and will work with property owners within the project should they want to resurface their driveway.
