Item MnDOT Sidewalk Proposal for Snelling Ave (East side-Curtiss Field)
Description MnDot would like to propose sidewalks as part of the upcoming TH51/Snelling
Project. MnDOT identified a potential new sidewalk on the east side of TH51 from
Hoyt Ave to approximate 300 feet south of Larpenteur Ave.
Once the sidewalk is constructed, MNDOT was wondering if the City would
maintain the new sidewalk.
There are a number of options on the site plan which I will explain the options at
the meeting.
Snow Maintenance for Larpenteur Ave
I would like to discuss the future maintenance for Larpenteur Ave.

REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
The City That Soars!
Item Discussion on 2016 Draft Enterprise Fund Budgets.
Description Each year the City looks at and adopts budgets relating to the City’s Enterprise
Funds. Key points of the 2016 Draft Enterprise Fund Budgets include:
Sanitary Sewer
There no major capital improvements planned for the Sanitary Sewer Fund in 2016.
However, it will be the third year of the program of televising and jetting the entire
sanitary sewer system. This is estimated to be $50,000.
Storm Sewer
The City continues to see increased state and federal mandates in regards to storm
sewer operations. These mandates often cannot be planned for as they are
presented in a short time frame. The Capitol Region Watershed has partnered with
the City on the Curtiss Field Flood Mitigation Project in 2014. The projected City
costs for the Curtiss Field project was $200,000 and will be paid during 2015. The
2015 Roselawn project is estimated to cost $25,000.
Future street projects for the city include significant storm water project costs. A
discussion needs to be taken in how these costs are to be paid.
In addition, the attached document showing storm water related projects since 2007,
shows that on average, the City has paid out of the storm sewer fund $70,115
annually toward projects in the past 9 years above and beyond the operational costs
of the fund.
Budget Impact Dependent on eventual adoption by the City Council at the Budget Hearing on
December 9, 2015
