FALCON HEIGHTS CITY COUNCIL MINUTES -4- May 14, 2003 Request for Authorization to Use a Portion of the Cit~pulation Allocation Funds from the Minnesota State Aid Account for the Repair of Sheldon Street, and Curb Replacement from Ru~~les Avenue to Roselawn Avenue Administrator Worthington said that Falcon Heights is currently one of two cities in the State that has a fully certified local street system. Because of this, the City is allowed to use a portion of its MSA funds to cover the repair of local streets not on the State aid system. The resolution being proposed authorizes City staff to go forward with a request to MN DOT for those funds, which will be used to pay for repairs to Sheldon Street, and curb replacement from Ruggles to Roselawn. Council member Talbot said that he was amazed that Falcon Heights is one of two cities in the State that can participate in this program. It lets residents avoid being assessed for repairs. Administrator Worthington said that Hamline Avenue is the one street left to be rebuilt. There will be ongoing maintenance over the years. The City has made a very significant • investment in its streets and wants to make sure they are maintained. The 88 in the pavement management plan is quite high for a City of our age. RESOLUTION 2003-08 Talbot moved adoption of Resolution 2003-08 authorizing the City to use a portion of the Minnesota State Aid System Construction Funds allocated for non-State Aid System local street repair of Sheldon Street (S.A.P. 124-050-02) mill, overlay and curb replacement, from Ruggles Avenue to Roselawn Avenue. The motion was unanimously approved.
