Wedel, City Engineer MEETING DATE: February 27, 2012 TOPIC: Consider Resolution No. 12 -20 Revoking Municipal State Aid Street Designations (MSAS 119 and MSAS 121) VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 INTRODUCTION The City of Lino Lakes has a population over 5,000 and therefore qualifies to be a part of the Municipal State Aid System (MSAS). As a State Aid City, up to 20% of the City's municipal mileage is allowed to be designated as State Aid. The City receives funding, based on the amount of designated mileage, from the State that can be used to fund the reconstruction of the MSAS designated streets. BACKGROUND In years past, the total amount of streets within the City was maintained utilizing an older Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) based drawing. This drawing was created over a decade ago and each year new street segments were simply added to it. This winter we reviewed the City's total mileage utilizing our Geographic Information System (GIS) database. After reviewing the GIS data, it was determined that the mileage previously certified within the City was greater than what actually existed. In correcting the certified mileage we also determined that the City has designated more than 20% of the allowed mileage as MSAS. Per the Certification of Mileage that was completed in 2011, the City has designated 0.44 miles more than is allowed by State Aid rules. Staff met with Marshall Johnston of the Mn/DOT State Aid unit on January 10, 2012 to discuss this discrepancy. Upon review of the Lino Lakes system, Mr. Johnston was in agreement with Staff s findings of having designated more mileage than was allowed. Mr. Johnston indicated that the City must come back into compliance with the maximum 20% mileage designation rule. To correct this over - designation, the City must revoke 0.44 miles, at minimum, to come back into compliance with State Aid rules. Upon reviewing the system, two non - existing segments were identified to be removed. The segments include Rehbeins Street and 73rd Street Extension; both segments are between CSAH 21 and 21St Avenue. Between the two segments, the lengths total 0.52 miles Revoking these two segments will bring the City back into compliance with State Aid rules and will leave the City with an additional 0.08 miles that could be designated in the future. • • In 2012, the City received $13,000 in apportionment dollars for these two non - existing segments. Staff discussions with State Aid indicated that the City would not receive a penalty or be required to pay back any funds that were received as a result of the prior over - designation. RECOMMENDATION Approve Resolution 12 -20, Revoking Municipal State Aid Street Designations (MSAS 119 and MSAS 121).
