CITY COUNCIL <br />AGENDA ITEM 6C <br /> <br /> <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: Diane Hankee PE, City Engineer <br /> <br />MEETING DATE: May 22, 2023 <br /> <br />TOPIC: Consider Resolution No. 23-45, Approving Amendments to the <br />Designated Municipal State Aid Street System <br /> <br />VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 <br /> <br /> <br />INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />Staff is requesting council approval for Amendments to the Designated Municipal State Aid <br />Street System. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br /> <br />The Municipal State Aid Street (MSAS) system allows cities with a population over 5,000 to be <br />eligible to receive funding for road improvements and maintenance from the State Highway <br />Users Fund. Each year, the City receives an allocation based 50% upon its population and 50% <br />upon the construction “Needs” of its roadways. To receive funding, the City can designate up <br />to 20% of its local streets to receive MSAS funding. The City has a total of 23.35 miles <br />eligible to designate. <br /> <br />In an effort to maximize the construction Needs of Lino Lakes’ MSAS system it is <br />recommended to amend the City’s existing system designations. To amend the system in 2023, <br />MnDOT requires a council resolution be passed by June 1, 2023. MnDOT State Aid staff have <br />approved the following designations. <br /> <br />MSAS 146: 21st Avenue – from 20th Avenue N to Crane Drive (0.14 miles) <br />MSAS 147: Crane Drive – from 21st Avenue to Watermark Way (0.34 miles) <br />MSAS 148: Watermark Way – from 20th Avenue N to Crane Drive (0.33 miles) <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />Staff is recommending approval of Resolution No. 23-45 Amending the Designated Municipal <br />State Aid Street System. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS <br /> <br />1. Resolution <br />2. State Aid Approval letter and Map <br />
