Home My WebLink About6.a. 145th Street Improvements, City Project #245 Discussion/Clarification t S � CITY OF ROSEMOUNT - EXECUTE'�`E SUMMARY FOR ACTION CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: February 15, 1994 AGENDA ITEM: 145th Street, City Project #245 AGENDA SECTiON: Discussion/Clarification Oid Business PREPARED BY: Bud Osmundson AGENDA�� City Engineer/Assistant Public Works Director ATTACHMENTS: Letter to Residents for Informational AP V D Y: Meeting and Funding Chart ' 2� There are three items which need ta be provided to the Council either for informational purpases or far clarification. 1 . Attached is a letter mailed to residents on Friday, February 11 , 1994 setting an informational meeting for this projec# for Wednesday, February 23, 1994 at .7:00 p.m. at City Hall. Council Members, as long as there are not more than two, are invited to attend. 2. After further discussion with NSP regarding decorative lighting, we were informed that the bases of the decoratiue {ighting poles are 20" in width. State Aid rules require a 18" clear zone from the face of curb to any obstruction, such as a sign post or light post. !f the 6' sidewalk_is the option chosen there would only be a 34" walking sidewalk around each pole for actual waiking. Staff will investigate two options, either widening the entire sidewalk to 8' for tkre entire length on both sides or widen in a circular manner around the pole area to provide a wider walking surface. Staff is under the assumption that the City Public Works Department will eventually or immediately be responsible for snow removal of these sidewalks. If that is the case, Staff recommends an 8' wide sidewalk be instaUsd. 3. The Finance Director asked me to clarify the funding sources for the proposed project. The attached general funding overview itemizes the breakdown between what was previously referred to as "Street Core Fund", into two columns entitled MSA Funds and Other Funds. I tried to explain that this funding for the decorative lighting and overhead burial would have to come from other sources. The total amount is estimated at 5220,000. Other Funds available to use are as follows A. C.I.P. Reserves - This fund is reserve funds from underspending ofprevious years Capital Improvements. This fund has undesignated funds in it which Council has the option of using. At this time however, this account has considerable amounts designated for use if necessary for the Community Center. B. We have in the Capital Improvements Program for 1994, approximately 572,000 identified for improvements to Cameo Avenue and 143rd Street. An option is to utilize these funds for the proposed improvements to 145th Street and not complete the Cameo and 143rd Street Improvements this year. However, other funds would also have to be uti(ized with this option. C. This third option would be to continue negotiations with NSP and ask that the billing for these improvements not be completed until 1995. The NSP portion of the 5220,000 is approximateiy 5190,000. 1 apologize if these funding sources were not clear after the last meeting and will totally itemize MSA eligible funds in a separate column in the future. Gouncil will not have to make a decision on the funding sources at this time, but should provide direction to Staff.

The returns from the survey were provided to City Council and showed almost a 50-50 split on al1 of the questions. At the February 1, 1994 Council meeting, it was determined that the following improvements would be considered: • The existing 40 ft. wide strest would be replaced with a 44 ft. wide street, thereby allowing the use of MSA Funds and aflow parking on both sides of the street. • A 6 ft. wide sidewalk be placed on both sides af 145th Street. • Decorative and improved intersection lighting be instalfed. • Burying and/or realignment of overhead electrical, phone and cable line.
