COUNCIL MINUTES AUGUST 10, 1998 Consideration of Resolution No. 98 - 125, Approve Joint Powers Agreement with Anoka County, Apollo Drive, Phase 3 - Mr. Ahrens explained that the construction of Apollo Drive, Phase 3, is a joint project between the City of Lino Lakes and Anoka County. Therefore, a Joint Powers Agreement is necessary to define financial responsibilities and conditions between the two (2) agencies. The Agreement states that Apollo Drive will be on the County highway system and Lilac Street, from Apollo Drive to Lake Drive, shall become a City roadway upon completion of the project. Existing Apollo Drive located to the south of this project is currently on the County highway system so it is logical to have Apollo Drive, Phase 3 on the County system. Lilac Street will become a dead-end street at Lake Drive as a result of this project so it is logical to have the portion of Lilac Street east of Apollo Drive on the City's road system. The Agreement states that access shall be limited to four (4) along the Apollo Drive, Phase 3 alignment. This includes driveways for the bank that is under construction, the convenience store site, the north half of the VFW property, and the residential home located immediately west of the VFW property. The south half of the VFW property will access Apollo Drive via Lilac Street. Considering likely development patterns in this area and that the roadway is an arterial road, staff feels that the number of access points is satisfactory. Mr. Ahrens stated the project cost (including engineering and administrative costs) is estimated at $505,504.00. Of the project costs the estimated County portion is $317,464.00 and the City portion is $188,040.00. The City is planning to fund its portion through special assessments to benefiting properties and the Surface Water Management Fund. Staff recommended adoption of Resolution No. 98 - 125. Mayor Sullivan asked if the convenience store is definitely going to be developed. Mr. Wessel indicated the convenience store has been approved including access arrangements. Although delays have occurred, it is a viable project. Council Member Bergeson moved to adopt Resolution No. 98 - 125, as presented. Council Member Lyden seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Resolution No. 98 - 125 can be found at the end of these minutes. Consideration of Resolution No. 98 - 126, Accept Bids and Award Construction Contract, Otter Lake Road Realignment - Upon adoption of the agenda, this item was removed. Consideration of Resolution No. 98 - 127, Approve Payment No. 4 (Final) and Change Orders 1 and 2, 1997 Wear Course and Trail Paving Project - Mr. Ahrens stated the contractor for the 1997 Wear Course and Trail Paving Project is requesting City approval of payment No. 4 (final) in the amount of $15,186.04 including change orders 1 and 2.
