Project Update.docx section will be completed by the second week of July. Some minor restoration and final corrections remain.  Autumn Path – Scope includes construction of utilities and paving from Bonaire Path north approximately 2,500 feet. Construction started in October 2020 with utility installation complete. Trail paving is completed and sidewalk construction is progressing. Final grading will occur after sidewalk work is finished. The construction of retaining walls is complete and the contractor will pave the trail in June. Final paving will be completed in the near future.  Biscayne Ave – Scope includes construction of utilities and paving between Boulder th Trail and 160 Street (CSAH 46). Extension of sanitary sewer will provide service to the Biscayne Business Park on the southern end of the project. Final wear course has been paved and this portion was seal coated as a test section to evaluate pavement longevity. Striping the main line remains to be completed.  Bonaire Path – Scope includes construction of utilities and paving between Akron Avenue and Anderson Drive. Additionally, the installation of crossing arms at the Union Pacific Railroad intersection are in the scope of the project and planned as part of this project. Ultimately, the city will request that this intersection become a quiet zone (i.e. no train horns). Wear course and construction is anticipated to be completed in 2021; however, that will hinge on Union Pacific completing the necessary crossing work. Final design for rail improvements was approved by City Council at the February 4, 2020 meeting. Draft construction agreement was finally provided by UP on December 3, 2020. The final agreement for City Council approval was provided on April 5, 2021 and approved by Council on April 20, 2021. Actual construction work by UP remains unscheduled at this time. Additional communication with both MnDOT and other Union Pacific staff is being done as well. Staff has been in contact with the Federal Railroad Administration regarding application for a quiet zone (QZ). Because of the design, the QZ application is expected to be approved.  Boulder Trail Extension – Scope includes the extension of Boulder Trail to MN Trunk Highway 3 across from Canada Circle. Utility extension as needed will also be part of this work. This will allow for future development in this area. Design proposal was accepted on April 21, 2021. Preliminary layout is completed and detailed design is underway.  Connemara Trail Extension – Scope includes construction of utilities and paving from Akron Avenue east approximately 1,300 feet. Contract was awarded and work is being planned for 2021 due to the significant workload. Change order for additional work provides storm sewer interceptor extension, water main extension and additional paving into the Emerald Isle development was approved. Construction work will begin at the end of July and work will be completed this year.  Scannell Development Trunk Sanitary Sewer – Scope includes extension of trunk th sanitary sewer from 140 Street/MCES Lift Station to CSAH 42 on the east side of U.S. 52. This is an expansion of the existing collection system as shown in the Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer plan to allow future development. Design proposal was accepted on April 21, 2021. Design is underway and anticipated to be complete in the near future. 2  Shannon Pond Outlet Feasibility Study – Scope includes reviewing potential routes for stormwater outlet at Shannon Pond. Because of the land locked location, establishing an outlet will be a significant undertaking. Initial study work was received in 2020. Information from this study will be used to establish future improvements necessary to reduce the potential for structure flooding. Staff and consultant are coordinating with additional authorities regarding some of the potential options provided in the study. Updates will be provided to the Utility Commission at future meetings as needed. The following list is the current and planned developer projects. st  Ardan Place 1 – Scope includes the construction of utilities and both public and private streets from Bonaire Path and Autumn Path as well 42 single family residential (SFR) of a planned 79 and 55 townhomes of a planned 137.

This study will assist with quantifying those costs. Initial survey work is completed.  Mississippi River Greenway – Scope includes the reconstruction of a portion of Pine Bend Trail to allow for the completion of the Dakota County trail connection from St. Paul to Hastings. This work will be funded by Dakota County. Additionally, the section of Pine Bend Trail between TH 55 and the reconstructed section will be reclaimed at city cost. This work is planned for 2022.
