COUNCIL MEETING DATE: June 11, 2007
TOPIC: Resolution No. 07 -85, Accepting Feasibility Report and Calling for a
Public Hearing, Shenandoah Area Street, Storm Sewer, and
Watermain Improvement Project.
VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority
BACKGROUND:
The City of Lino Lakes currently has approximately 100 of local streets. On May
14, 2007 City Council authorized the revision of Shenandoah Area Feasibility
study.
As the City of Lino Lakes ages, the need for reconstruction of local streets
becomes a greater priority. Streets that are in poor condition or have storm
drainage problems substantially increase city maintenance costs.
The Shenandoah Area Improvement project will be funded by a combination of
special assessments, Trunk Unit Funds, and general tax levies.
The feasibility study, ordered by the City Council, has been completed. The next
step in the process will be to accept the feasibility study and hold a Public
Hearing on July 9th for the proposed improvements.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approving Resolution No. 07 -85 Accepting Feasibility Report
and Calling for a Public Hearing, Shenandoah Area Street, Storm Sewer, and
Watermain Improvement Project.
