The parties understand that the cost for the trail includes: bituminous surfacing, aggregate base, excavation (including muck excavation), borrow material (granular and topsoil), and turf establishment. The parties agree that the County will pay for the design of the trail, wetland mitigation required by impacts caused by the trail, the additional right of way and easements required to construct the trail at the proper location, and any removal items, with the exception of any soils correction in areas of existing trails, required to construct the trail. TRAFFIC CONTROL: The parties understand and agree that portions of CSAH 14/CR 53 will be closed to thru traffic during construction, but access for local traffic will be maintained during construction. The parties agree and understand the cost share for traffic control for the City shall be a prorated share based on the City Project cost divided by the total Project cost. DRIVEWAYS: The parties agree that all driveways affected (excluding those identified for removal) by the Project will be reconstructed in kind at 100% Project cost with the cost of any upgrades requested by the City, including concrete aprons, to be the sole responsibility of the City. LANDSCAPING/STREETSCAPING: The parties agree that if the City wishes to include landscaping or streetscape features in the Project, they shall be designed in accordance with Anoka County Highway Department Landscape/Streetscape Guidelines. The City shall supply the signed plans, specifications, and estimated quantities (using MnDOT Item Numbers) and cost for the proposed landscape/streetscape. The total cost of the design as well as the construction cost above standard median cost will be at the expense of the requesting City. All construction documents must be submitted to the County by December 1, 2023. Future maintenance of any landscaping/streetscaping will be the sole responsibility of the City. Should the city forego installing landscaping or streetscaping in the interior island of the roundabout, it will be planted with grass and maintained by the County. If at all in the future, the City wishes to install landscaping/streetscaping features in the central island of the roundabout, the City shall follow the details above, and maintenance responsibilities will become ownership of the City. LIGHTING: The parties agree that the roundabout intersection lighting costs will be shared per the standard County cost share for traffic signals, with the City paying for 25 % of the roundabout lighting. If the City would like additional lighting on the Project, this would be 100% City cost. Lighting will be installed in accordance with the City lighting ordinance and will contain LED fixtures wherever possible and provided such lighting is within the budget for the Project. Following the reconstruction, the ongoing roadway lighting maintenance at the CSAH 14/CR 53 will be consistent with Anoka County warranted traffic signal maintenance practices, with the City being 100% responsible for all luminaire maintenance, and 100% responsible for the ongoing supply of electrical power for the lighting system. A subsequent agreement between the City of Lino Lakes and the City of Blaine shall be established outside of this JPA for payment of maintenance costs and lighting power costs. 177
