515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117 -1600 <br />(651) 766 -4029 / FAX: (651) 766 -4048 <br />www.eLlittle-canada.rnn.us <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor Fahey and Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator <br />DATE: May 7, 2004 <br />RE: Improvement of Edgerton Street and County Road D <br />MAYOR <br />Michael L Fahey <br />COUNCIL <br />Jim LaValle <br />Matt Anderson <br />Rick Montour <br />Bill Blesener <br />ADMINISTRATOR <br />Joel R. Hanson <br />Attached is a feasibility study for the improvement of Edgerton Street and County Road D by street <br />reconstruction and concrete curb and gutter necessitated by the Unweave the Weave project and the <br />raising of the Edgerton Street bridge. The feasibility report also includes the improvement of a <br />portion of County Road D west of Edgerton Street with water main. <br />City staff is proposing that the cost of these improvements be assessed against the benefiting <br />properties. Council should note that the assessing the cost of street reconstruction and concrete curb <br />and gutter on a County road is a policy issue for the Council. Should the City decide not to assess for <br />this portion of Edgerton Street, at the time the County reconstructs the remainder of Edgerton Street <br />the City would be hard- pressed to assess for that future project. Council should also be advised that <br />the City will be incurring storm sewer costs as part of the Unweave the Weave project, and the <br />assessment of the road improvement is a means to help offset those costs as well as any costs the <br />County passes on to us such as curb and gutter. <br />
