August 11, 2010
Consider Resolution No. 10 -71, Determining
Necessity for the Issuance of General Obligation
Bonds and Calling a Special Election
3/5
The City has previously received requests from residents to consider the signalization of
the Birch Street/Ware Road intersection and the Lake Drive /Main Street intersection.
Both intersections are experiencing growing congestion and safety problems.
On April 12, 2010 the City Council authorized the preparation of Signal Justification
Reports (SJR's) for the intersection of Birch Street and Ware Road and the intersection
of Lake Drive and Main Street. While the SJR's still require review by the Minnesota
Department of Transportation (Mn /DOT), Anoka County has given their support for both
projects.
On June 14, 2010 the City Council authorized the preparation of a Concept Layout and
Construction Estimate for both intersections.
TKDA, the City Engineer, has completed the conceptual layouts and determined a
construction estimate. The estimated cost of the intersection improvements are as
follows:
Project
City
County
Total
Birch Street/Ware Road
$ 925,000
N/A
$ 925,000
Lake Drive /Main Street
$ 834,000
$834,000
$1,668,000
Totals*
$1,759,000
$834,000
$2,593,000
*Total does not include bond issuance costs
Anoka County will not participate financially in the Birch Street/Ware Road project.
While the Signal Justification Report (SJR) identified a need for improvements to this
intersection under future traffic volumes, existing volumes did not meet the same
thresholds. As a matter of policy, Anoka County will not contribute to projects where
future conditions are used to satisfy warrant thresholds.
• The County will fund 50 % of the Lake Drive and Main Street intersection
improvements. Accordingly, the total amount proposed to be funded by the City of Lino
Lakes, including bond issuance cost, is estimated at $1,840,000. The estimate includes
contingencies to account for unknowns due to the conceptual nature of the plans and
the probable construction start date of 2012.
Local funding for the project is proposed to be provided by the issuance of General
Obligation Bonds payable from the collection of property taxes. No special
assessments are being proposed. Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 475 includes provisions
that allow the city to fund improvements in this manner subject to voter approval.
The City's Bond Counsel, Kennedy & Graven, has prepared the required resolution
Calling for the Special Election. Resolution 10 -71 includes both projects in one ballot
question. Alternatively, Resolution 10 -71 B, provides a separate ballot question for each
project.
The bond amount listed in each resolution is a not to exceed number. The resolution
provides authority to issue bonds up to the not to exceed amount. If project costs are
higher than estimated, the City would need to either find alternative funding or hold an
additional election. If project costs are lower than the authorized amount, the City
would only issue bonds in the amount necessary to cover the improvement costs.
The adopted resolution must be submitted to Anoka County prior to August 20, 2010 to
be included on the November 2, 2010 election ballot.

TKDA prepared a draft Signal Justification Report (SJR) for the intersection of Birch Street and
Ware Road and submitted it to the County for comment on May 17, 2010. Following meetings
with the County, the SJR is being revised for final review and comment by the County. TKDA
was also authorized to prepare a concept layout and cost estimate for the intersection signal and
associated roadway work.
The concept layout is based upon the discussions with the County for the SJR and potential
signalization. A draft concept layout was prepared and provided to the City and County on
June 10, 2010. TKDA revised the concept layout based on comments received. A construction
estimate was prepared using the revised concept layout and in consideration of the following
items:
• The quantities were separated into two groups, one reflective of the changes on Birch Street
and the other for the completion of Sioux Lane to Hokah Drive.
• The existing ground elevation was estimated due to the lack of survey information.
Topographical information, where available, was used to help estimate the ground elevation.
• Permanent right -of -way needs were estimated for three corners. Temporary construction
easement for the Sioux Lane connection was also estimated.
• The existing shoulders on Birch Street were assumed to need removal and replacement to
provide a suitable cross section for through traffic.
• Where it was necessary to widen Birch Street to accommodate the new raised median, a full -
depth bituminous sawcut was assumed at the inside edge of the road. All of the
approximately 6 -foot widening occurs on the north side of Birch Street.
• To allow for the raised median on Birch Street, an 8- foot -wide full -depth bituminous sawcut
was assumed in the road. This width provides space for the 4- foot -wide median, B412 curb
and gutter, and an approximately 1 -foot area for new bituminous pavement between the new
concrete and the existing bituminous.
• A mill- and - overlay was planned for areas adjacent to new widening or where new striping
will be required.

• Bituminous removal and sawcut quantities included reconstruction of private driveways
where necessary.
• The new northbound right -turn lane on Ware Road assumed a 4 -foot expansion of the
existing width. Curb removal and replacement were included for this widening.
• The regional trail was moved north to maintain the existing boulevard between the trail and
the roadway.
• A geotechnical investigation was not completed. Geotechnical information from previous
projects in this area indicated that the existing soil is a mix of sand, fill material, and organic
material. This construction estimate included the removal of 24 inches of topsoil, organic
material, and existing soils.
• The proposed pavement section was based upon a typical section assumption provided by the
County and consisted of 6 inches of bituminous pavement over 6 inches of class 5 aggregate
base. A 1 -foot subcut that would be backfilled with select granular material was also
included.
• The proposed project was expected to be less than 1 acre of disturbed area and will therefore
not require a storm water permit from the Rice Creek Watershed District or the MPCA.
This construction estimate is based on the above items and is considered preliminary. Preparation
of fmal plans will be required to address all of the issues and to obtain a more accurate
construction estimate.
The total project cost is estimated to be $925,000, including contingencies and right -of -way
acquisition. The following contingencies have been added to address other items necessary for
construction of the proposed project:
• 15% contingency to account for items that will not be quantified until construction plans
have been created.
• 20% contingency for engineering plans, specifications, and bid package preparation.
• 5% contingency for legal, fiscal, and administration duties, which does not include expenses
associated with the bond.
• 8% contingency for construction services and observation.
The attached summary table shows the estimated construction costs for each portion of the
proposed project, the Birch Street improvements and the Sioux Drive connection, followed by
the right -of -way costs and contingencies. Itemized construction estimates are then attached for
each project segment. All unit prices and cost estimates reflect construction in year 2012.

concept layout based on comments and discussion at a subsequent meeting on July 16, 2010. A
construction estimate was prepared using the revised concept layout and in consideration of the
following items:
• The existing ground elevation was estimated due to the lack of survey information.
Topographical information, where available, was used to help estimate the ground elevation.
• Permanent right -of -way needs were estimated for three approaches.
• Where widening was necessary to accommodate the new turn lanes, a full -depth bituminous
sawcut was assumed at the inside edge of the road.
• A mill- and - overlay was planned for areas adjacent to new widening or where new striping
will be required. The depth of the mill planned was 2 inches.
• Bituminous removal and sawcut quantities included reconstruction of private driveways
where necessary.
• The new curb in the northwest quadrant on Main Street eliminated the existing on- street
parking.
• Access management associated with the proposed project reduced the private driveways
intersecting the public roadways.
• A geotechnical investigation was not completed. This construction estimate included the
removal of 24 inches of topsoil, organic material, and existing soils.

• The proposed pavement section was based upon a typical section assumption provided by the
County and consisted of 6 inches of bituminous pavement over 6 inches of class 5 aggregate
base. A 1 -foot subcut that would be backfilled with select granular material was also
included.
• The proposed project was expected to create more than 1 acre of disturbed area and require a
storm water permit from the Rice Creek Watershed District and the MPCA. In anticipation of
potential water quality improvement needs, a storm water treatment pond has been assumed
for the proposed project.
• New storm water pipes were added to drain from the sections of new curb and gutter. The
new pipes were assumed to connect into the existing system and drain into the proposed
storm water treatment pond.
This construction estimate is based on the above items and is considered preliminary. Preparation
of final plans will be required to address all of the issues and to obtain a more accurate
construction estimate.
The total project cost is estimated to be $1,668,000, including contingencies and right -of -way
