Bike Trail The bike trail construction along Dodd Rd. is scheduled in two phases. Our 1990 portion deals with the section from Chippendale Avenue to Shannon Parkway. Phase II is scheduled in 1991 from Shannon Parkway ta an area connecting to Diamond Path. Phasing of the project may have to be altered somewhat depending on the outcome of the engineering consultant's input. This memo deals with the authority for the consultant, OSM, to start warking with our department on the planning and survey work of this trail pro�ect. You will find a copy of the, proposal of the consultants pertaining to their estimate of costs for the first portion of phase I. Their initial cost estimate of $ 4,100.00 is based upon an hourly factor. In discussions between OSM and my department it has been agreed that we may �o over that amount if necessary, however, that maq not happen until it is clearly understood by both parties involved as to the progress made and the reasons for the additional fees for services. You authorization is requested to move ahead with this pro�ect and to have the consultants of QSM enter into a contract with us for the survey and planning work. This pro�ect is included in the 1990 CIP and funding will be taken from that source at this time. .

Bechtold ��! -" � r:�:���+��'� Recreation Director P��. _ „� , City of Rosemount �����, ����,'j ��E� �� ►-� 2875 145th Street West Rosemount, MN 55068 , ��y tt,-F��'""'""rr� ��������� '1 e Dear Mr. Bechtold: Orr-Schelen-Mayeron & Associates, Inc. is pleased to submit to you this estimate to prepare the plans and specifications for the construction af a bituminous trail along Dodd Boulevard. After reviewing the informatian provided by your office and inspecting the project site, it is our recommendation to combine this project with the 145th Street Reconstruction Project we are currently undertaking for the City. The 145th Street Praject, City Project No. 206, involves the re-alignment and reconstruction of the Chippendale Avenue - Dodd Boulevard intersection. This would include approximately 150' to 200' of the proposed 1800' trail. Combining th�se projects will provide the City with much more competitive prices, both from a construction cost and engineering cost standpoint. If the 145th Street Project is not constructed, the Dodd Boulevard Trail can be constructed separately. The estimated cost of our services is $4, 100, which will be on an hourly basis at the direction of your office. The preparation of plans and specifications, biddinq documents, and project management through the bid letting are included in this estimate. At the time oF ti,e i,i� l�tti�tg, ai� ���ii�at� fi�r ��n�Lruc;��ci, ��ca�:ii�g, construction inspection, and project management through project completion will be submitted. These services will be additional to the estimate and at the direction of your office. The City will provide Orr-Schelen-Mayeron & Associates, Inc. a concept plan, surrounding plats, and record utility plans for the area. The above mentioned estimated price should not be interpreted as a maximum cast. For a project such as this, it is not fair to the City or to OSM to specify a maximum amount because of the unknowns involved. We will make every effort ta keep you informed of aur costs as the project progresses.
