A RESOLUTION REQUESTING COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT PROJECT
WITH THE MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
FOR IMPROVEMENTS ON STATE TRUNK HIGHWAY 3
(SOUTH ROBERT TRAIL) BETWEEN 145 STREET WEST
AND COUNTY STATE AID HIGHWAY 3
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Rosemount has determined that the area on State
Trunk Highway ,3 ( South Robert Trail) between 145` Street West and CSAH 42 is an important
entryway into the City, and its' commercial district, and
WHEREAS, the concrete curb and gutter and storm drainage facilities on Trunk Highway 3 are .
failing and inadequate and the bituminous surface requires maintenance such as a mill and overlay,
and
WHEREAS, a portion of TH 3 south of Lower 147` Street is a rural section with open ditches
and the City feels an urban section with curb and gutter, storm sewer and pedestrian facilities
would be safer, provide better drainage and be an overall improvement, and

Highway 3, in this area by burying overhead utility lines, installing decorative lighting and
constructing sidewalks and brick pavers to enhance the commercial district, and
WHEREAS, the City is proposing to close or consolidate a number of driveways in order to
improve the safety on TH 3 as traffic volumes continue to increase, and
WHEREAS, the Minnesota Department of Transportation is aware of the needs and benefits of
these proposed improvements, and
