Financial Impact:
The project has a total estimated cost of $4,172,000, including design and other project delivery
overhead costs. Street, storm sewer, and surface restoration costs will be funded primarily through
bonded debt and assessments in the estimated amount of $3,173,000. Sanitary sewer and water
system costs will be funded by General Obligation (G.O.) Utility Revenue Bonds in the estimated amount
of $999,000. Please note that these sanitary sewer and water system costs are not included in the
attached Resolution as they are not included in the special assessments (Minnesota Statutes Chapter
429). The project can be funded within the City’s approved funding parameters for 2019.
Council Committee Discussion:
Staff met with the Operations Committee on November 21, 2018 to present the recommended project
scope and proposed assessments amounts. The Committee was supportive of the project
recommendations, but requested public input on trail alignment options identified in the City’s
Comprehensive Planning documents. Neighborhood Open Houses were held on December 11th and 13th
to present the recommended project and hear from the property owners. The overall feedback from
these discussions was support for the proposed improvements as recommended in the Feasibility &
Assessments Report. Preferences and/or concerns regarding the trail alignment were received and
documented as well. This information was shared with the Operations Committee on December 20,
2018. Feedback will continue to be gathered and on January 23, 2019, the Operations Committee will
meet again to finalize a trail alignment recommendation to the full Council.
The Council will be provided a fully detailed report and presentation on all design features, Operations
Committee guidance, neighborhood feedback, cost and funding mix, project construction timelines, and
project communications in a memo preceding the February 19th Council meeting.
