EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
City Council Meeting: May 3, 2022
AGENDA ITEM: Entering into a Master Partnership AGENDA SECTION:
Contact with MnDOT Consent
PREPARED BY: Brian Erickson, PE, City Engineer AGENDA NO. 6.f.
ATTACHMENTS: Resolution, Contract APPROVED BY: LJM
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to Adopt Resolution Entering into a Master Partnership
Contract with MnDOT.
BACKGROUND
In an effort to maximize efficiencies, the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) has
proposed this Master Partnership Contract. This contract provides a framework for MnDOT and the City
of Rosemount to provide payment to the other for services rendered.
Both MnDOT and the City of Rosemount have the ability to realize efficiencies by coordinating services.
This is a common contract that MnDOT has with several agencies including cities and counties. The
contract provides for two types of services. Technical or routine services are clearly defined and do not
require a detailed scope of work to complete. Services of this type include pavement striping, sign repair,
pavement condition data, material testing and inspection, and concrete and bituminous plant inspections.
For services that are not classified as technical services a Work Order would be required along with a
defined scope of work. These services could include more intense roadway maintenance, construction
administration and emergency services. Under this contract, the maximum the State would pay is
$500,000 for all work order contracts for services provided by the City of Rosemount. This Master
Partnership Contract would be effective on July 1, 2022 (the beginning of the State of Minnesota’s 2023
fiscal year) and has an expiration date of June 30, 2027.
The primary and most common use of this contract will be for routine laboratory and plant inspection
services which does not require a work order. These services are billed monthly when used. Rosemount
would plan on using construction materials and plant inspection services as needed for upcoming state aid
projects. Without this contract in place, Rosemount would need to contract with a private material testing
firm for these services at a higher cost.
The City Attorney has reviewed this contract and noted that it is a standard MnDOT contract that is
generally equitable. However, there are a couple items that were noted as leaning toward MnDOT
advantage. This applies to only Work Order contracts as noted above, and that would be negotiated via a
separate process.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that City Council adopt the attached resolution and enter into a Master Partnership
Contract with MnDOT.

order, the parties will follow up with execution of a work order as soon as feasible.

To the extent possible, those Works eligible for copyright protection under the United States
Copyright Act will be deemed to be “works made for hire.” The Providing Party Government assigns
all right, title, and interest it may have in the Works and the Documents to the Requesting Party. The
Providing Party must, at the request of the Requesting Party, execute all papers and perform all
other acts necessary to transfer or record the Requesting Party’s ownership interest in the Works
and Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Requesting Party grants the Providing Party an
irrevocable and royalty‐free license to use such intellectual property for its own non‐commercial
purposes, including dissemination to political subdivisions of the state of Minnesota and to
transportation‐related agencies such as the American Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials.
14.2.2. Obligations with Respect to Intellectual Property.
a. Notification. Whenever any invention, improvement, or discovery (whether or not patentable) is
made or conceived for the first time or actually or constructively reduced to practice by the
Providing Party, including its employees and subcontractors, in the performance of the work
order contract, the Providing Party will immediately give the Requesting Party’s Authorized
Representative written notice thereof, and must promptly furnish the Authorized Representative
with complete information and/or disclosure thereon.

Requesting Party, and that neither Providing Party nor its employees, agents or contractors retain
any interest in and to the Works and Documents.
15. Affirmative Action
15.1. The State intends to carry out its responsibility for requiring affirmative action by its Contractors, pursuant
to Minn. Stat. §363A.36. Pursuant to that Statute, the Other Party is encouraged to prepare and implement
an affirmative action plan for the employment of minority persons, women, and the qualified disabled, and
submit such plan to the Commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Human Rights. In addition, when the
Other Party lets a contract for the performance of work under a work order issued pursuant to this MPC, it
must include the following in the bid or proposal solicitation and any contracts awarded as a result thereof:
15.2. Covered Contracts and Contractors. If the Contract exceeds $100,000 and the Contractor employed more
than 40 full‐time employees on a single working day during the previous 12 months in Minnesota or in the
state where it has its principle place of business, then the Contractor must comply with the requirements of
Minn. Stat. § 363A.36 and Minn. R. Parts 5000.3400‐5000.3600. A Contractor covered by Minn. Stat. §
363A.36 because it employed more than 40 full‐time employees in another state and does not have a
certificate of compliance, must certify that it is in compliance with federal affirmative action requirements.
