Project, City Project 2019-01
BACKGROUND
The 2019 Street Improvement Project, City Project 2019-01, is proposed to consist of an asphalt mill and
overlay on the majority of the streets (see attached Project Map). The geotechnical evaluation showed
some project streets require more intense rehabilitation, therefore, full-depth reclamation is proposed on
Dodd Boulevard and the southern section of Chippendale Avenue.
Included in the project is an asphalt mill and overlay and adjusting the pavement markings to a 3-lane
typical section on Connemara Trail from Diamond Path to Shannon Parkway. The mill and overlay will
address pavement distresses on this section of roadway. The typical section change, from a four-lane
roadway to one lane each direction with a center turn lane, is proposed to be consistent Dakota County’s
plans for a roundabout at the Diamond Path & Connemara Trail intersection. The roundabout is
proposed for construction in 2021. The lane reduction is not anticipated to significantly inhibit the flow of
traffic at existing volumes, as the center turn-lane will remove left-turning vehicles from of the flow of
traffic. This work will not be included in the MN Statute 429 Assessments as no properties have access
off this section of street, per the Rosemount Assessment Policy.
An asphalt mill and overlay of 100 feet on both sides of the Connemara Trail bridge, and parking lots at
the TH 3 Park-and-Ride and Fire Station #1 are also included in the project. These improvements will not
be included in the MN Statute 429 Assessments as no properties have access off these streets, per the
Rosemount Assessment Policy.
Within the project limits, minor utility work as identified in the City’s utility records and rehabilitating
pedestrian ramps to meet current ADA requirements is also included in the proposed improvements.

On January 15, 2019 the Council approved a contract for engineering services with TKDA for the 2019
Street Improvement Project, City Project 2019-01. TKDA authored a report on the feasibility of this
project. Detailed project information is included in the Feasibility Report available on file in the
Engineering Department. The report found this project, as proposed, to be feasible, cost effective, and
necessary.
On March 19, 2019, the Council accepted the Feasibility Report and authorized preparation of plans and
specification for the 2019 Street Improvement Project, City Project 2019-01. The Council also approved a
resolution calling the Public Improvement Hearing on April 16, 2019, which is a necessary step under the
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 429.
On April 10, 2019, staff hosted an open house for property owners to address questions and comment
regarding the project and the proposed assessment roll.
On April 16, 2019, the Council held a public hearing where they ordered these improvements.
The City’s consultant, TKDA, has submitted plans and specifications for this project and they are available
in the City’s Engineering Department for viewing.
COSTS & FUNDING
The Feasibility Report estimated the project cost at $2,411,000 as tabulated below. Table 2 has separated
out the portions of the project that are not anticipated to be assessed.

This project is scheduled in the 2019-2028 CIP. The estimated cost from the Feasibility Report is
approximately 41% higher than the CIP estimate. Some of the cost increase is due to the change in scope
of work on Dodd Boulevard and the southern portion of Chippendale Avenue. This additional cost will be
funded by a combination of MSA and assessments. Other increased costs include adding the fire station
and municipal parking lot maintenance (both proposed to be paid out of the general fund as part of the
long range plan for parking lots) and pedestrian improvements.
The project is proposed to be funded by a combination of MN State-Aid funds, general funds, utility
funds, and special assessments of benefitting properties.
Per the Rosemount Assessment Policy, the City pays for 65% of the street costs and 35% of the street
costs are assessed to the benefitting properties. Benefitting properties with access (a driveway) on the
project streets are included in the assessment roll.
As the roadways proposed for improvement are collectors, many are wider than an average local road.
Single-family homes are proposed to be assessed based on a 32-foot wide street section ($1,651.27/unit),
multi-family are based on a 36-foot section ($18.06/foot of frontage), and commercial properties are
assessed for the full width of the street ($20.44/foot of frontage). The calculations are included in the
Feasibility Report.
