CITY OF OTSEGO
COUNTY OF WRIGHT, MINNESOTA
A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING FOUR TON WEIGHT RESTRICTIONS FOR A
PORTION OF KADLER AVENUE WITHIN THE CITY OF OTSEGO.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF OTSEGO DOES HEREBY RESOLVE:
WHEREAS, that Kadler Avenue between the south boundary of Otsego and 65th
Street is a public street under the jurisdiction of the City of Otsego and the City of Albertville;
and,
WHEREAS, this section of Kadler Avenue is a rural section with gravel surface; and,
WHEREAS, this section of Kadler Avenue is maintained by the City of Otsego on
behalf of the Cities of Otsego and Albertville.
WHEREAS, this section of Kadler Avenue has already required maintenance due to
some sections failing; and,
WHEREAS, the opinion of the Public Works Supervisor and City Engineer, Hakanson
Anderson Associates, Inc., is that Kadler Avenue in its current condition does not have the
capability to support heavy truck traffic; and,
WHEREAS, use of this section of Kadler Avenue by heavy truck traffic has the
potential to cause damage to the public street outside of expected normal wear increasing
the burden on the City's Public Works Department and City budgets for street maintenance
and construction.
WHEREAS, Minnesota Statues 169.87 allows Cities to prohibit the operation of
vehicles upon any such roadway or impose restrictions as to the weight of vehicles to be
operated upon any such roadway, whenever any such roadway by reason of deterioration
will be seriously damaged or destroyed unless the use of vehicles thereon is prohibited or
the permissible weights thereof reduced.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT, the section of Kadler Avenue between the
City of Otsego's south boundary and 65th Street shall be weight restricted and enforced to
not more than four (4) tons per axle until repealed by resolution of the City Council
