Item #: 11
AGENDA ITEM: Washington County DRAFT 2018-2022 Capital Improvement Plan – City
Review and Comments
SUBMITTED BY: Jack Griffin, City Engineer
REVIEWED BY: Kristina Handt, City Administrator Emily Becker, Planning Director Chad Isakson, Assistant City Engineer
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City Council submit comments for consideration by
Washington County regarding the County’s DRAFT 2018-2022 Capital Improvement Plan? BACKGROUND AND PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: On October 11, 2017 City staff received notice from Washington County that the DRAFT 2018-2022 Capital Improvement Plan was available for review and comment with comments due no later than November 22, 2017. The County will be holding a
public hearing on its DRAFT 2018-2022 CIP on December 12th, 2017 prior to adopting the final document. Staff has reviewed the County’s DRAFT 2018-2022 CIP and from this review and subsequent
conversations with Washington County we are confident that the City’s needs have been incorporated. Therefore staff has no comments to submit on the DRAFT 2018-2022 CIP.
The attached packet highlights the substantial projects included within or adjacent to Lake Elmo, however this summary does not attempt to itemize the Park and Public Facilities projects located within the Lake Elmo Park Preserve. It should also be noted that the County completes intersection control projects and pavement preservation projects each year, however the specific work related to these improvements are not identified within the CIP document. Staff contacted the County with specific questions related to this annual work and has confirmed that the County is still proposing to install a signalized intersection at CSAH 19 and Hudson Boulevard in 2018 as part of their Intersection Control Projects. The pavement preservation projects include Lake Elmo Avenue, CR17B, from Hudson Boulevard to 10th Street North in 2018, and CSAH 13 (Inwood Avenue) from 10th Street to Stillwater Blvd (Old TH5) in 2019. The CR17B pavement preservation project includes turn lanes
at 5th Street for the Hunters Crossing and Southwind subdivisions. Other notable projects are as follows;
• CSAH 15 Phase 2 Improvements (CSAH 15 & CSAH 14 intersection realignment) are still proposed for construction in 2018. This project is listed in the CIP document for supplemental funding amounts only. The full project funding is not shown since the funds were mostly secured by the County in their 2016 Bond. The CSAH 15 Phase 2 Improvements includes center left turn
lanes at 30th Street and at Manning Trail since this segment of the Manning Avenue (Phase 3) is not likely to occur until the year 2023.
• CSAH 17 (Lake Elmo Avenue) Improvements from 10th Street to 30th Street includes the turn lane improvements for the Royal Golf Development at CSAH 17 and CSAH 10. The City has secured reimbursement for the turn lanes through the development agreement.
• CSAH 13 Phase 2 Improvements from CSAH 14 to 44th Street is scheduled for 2022 construction but could be completed as early as 2019 if the County is successful with their grant application, or if Oakdale development occurs quickly.
• CSAH 14 Downtown Lake Elmo is a new project showing up in the CIP for the first time. This project includes improvements to Stillwater Boulevard (Old TH5) through Downtown and is tentatively scheduled for 2023 construction with preliminary work starting in 2022. FISCAL IMPACT: None at this time. However, County improvement projects completed within the City of Lake Elmo often contain a local cost participation by the City. RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the City Council accept staff’s report, as part of the Consent Agenda, on the Washington County DRAFT 2018-2022 Capital Improvement Plan and accept staff’s recommendation that no comments need to be submitted. If removed from the consent agenda, the recommended motion for the action is as follows:
“Move to accept staff’s report on the Washington County DRAFT 2018-2022 Capital Improvement
Plan and recommendation that no comments need to be submitted.”

Description
The project scope includes an annual program for intersection control upgrades determined to be needed, but not incorporated as part of a larger roadway improvement
project.
Projects under this program would typically be individually identified and programmed through the County's Intersection Control Ranking System.
This program assumes one intersection improvement is programmed per year at a cost of $420,000.
Project #RB-2201
Justification
High-level intersection controls (roundabouts and traffic signals) may be constructed at county highway intersections meeting criteria set forth in the county Intersection
Control Ranking System.
The county proactively plans for the installation of intersection controls to improve the safety and efficiency of traffic flow on the County Highway System. The annual
Intersection Control Ranking System determines the priority of these installations.
The number of projects programmed varies depending on actual budget funding, the availability of matching funds, unforeseen development, or intersection safety
problems.
Budget Impact/Other
The typical traffic signal costs $1,500 per year to operate and maintain. This cost to the public is off-set by the increased traffic flow efficiency and enhanced safety.

Description
The project scope includes an annual program comprised of pavement preservation projects including:
1. Seal coating
2. Crack filling
3. Pavement milling
4. Overlays
5. Cold-in-place recycling
6. Hot-in-place recycling
7. Pavement reclaim
8. Full depth reclamation
9. Paving gravel shoulders
10. Minor subgrade corrections
2018 will include:
1. County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 6 - Trunk Highway (TH) 120 to Grenada
2. CSAH 10 - CSAH 15 to CSAH 21
3. County Road (CR) 17B - CSAH 10 to Interstate 94
4. CSAH 3 - CSAH 4 to County Line
5. CR 52 - TH 97 to TH 95
Project #RB-2204
Justification
These projects are scheduled to interrupt the normal deterioration of highways in order to extend the pavement life. Pavement condition is measured/calculated annually
and reported as the system wide Pavement Condition Index (PCI) that assigns a value to each roadway segment on a scale of 1-100, with higher numbers equating to better
pavement condition. Public Works Performance Measures set two goals: 1.) System wide average PCI = 72 or greater, and 2) no roadway PCI should be lower than 40.
Budget Impact/Other
County Program Aid funding refers to funding contingent on continued County Program Aid from the State of Minnesota. If this funding falls through, there will be
reductions in the pavement program accordingly.
Projects completed under the Pavement Preservation Program reduce operation and maintenance costs.

Description
The project scope includes a pedestrian bridge over Interstate (I) I-94, adjacent to the County State Aid Highway (CSAH 13) (Inwood Avenue/Radio Drive) bridge in the
cities of Woodbury, Lake Elmo, and Oakdale.
Project #RB-2587
Justification
Currently, pedestrians and cyclists cross I-94 in this area via a narrow section of the existing CSAH 13 bridge. This section does not meet current design standards for two-
way trail traffic, and the approaches do not meet Americans with Disabilities Act standards.
A new pedestrian bridge will accommodate all trail users, and will also provide the ability to repurpose the space on the bridge to allow for a third southbound travel lane.
Traffic studies indicate this third lane will be needed in the near future.
Repurposing of the existing space on the I-94 bridge to accommodate three southbound lanes, will thereby provide additional roadway capacity.
Budget Impact/Other
The project will increase operations and maintenance costs because of the added infrastructure.
This project requires Federal funds. If Federal funding is not available, this project may be delayed or deferred.

Description
The project scope includes a grade separated interchange on County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 15 (Manning Avenue N) at the intersection with Trunk Highway (TH)
36, and the addition of a south frontage road.
Project #RB-2588
Justification
This intersection currently operates an at-grade intersection controlled by a fully actuated traffic control signal. Growing traffic demands on both TH 36 and CSAH 15
require a grade separated interchange.
Budget Impact/Other
The project will increase operation and maintenance costs because of added infrastructure associated with the interchange.
It is expected that local agencies, the State of Minnesota, and Federal Aid will provide funding for this project. If this funding is not obtained, this project would be delayed.

Description
The project scope includes the following improvements on County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 17 (Lake Elmo Avenue) from CSAH 10 (10th Street North) to 30th Street
North:
1) New pavement
2) Improved surface water management
3) Evaluation of improved pedestrian accommodations
Project #RB-2619
Justification
The current pavement along this corridor is in poor condition. Additionally, the presence of numerous utility cuts and patches has created a roadway surface that is uneven
and does not provide adequate ride quality.
This project is also an opportunity to evaluate and address concerns related to surface water management. The road is adjacent to Lake Elmo, so improved water
management will help maintain high water quality in the lake.
Additional concerns have been raised relating to pedestrian safety and accessibility in this area. The roadway is a popular cycling and pedestrian route. This project will
evaluate options to improve pedestrian accommodations.
Budget Impact/Other
The project will increase operation and maintenance costs because of the added infrastructure.

Description
The project scope for Phase II includes the following improvements on County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 13 (Ideal Avenue) from approximately 44th Street to County
State Aid Highway 14:
1. Two-lane highway construction
2. Construction of trails on the west side of the highway
3. Drainage improvements including stormwater treatment facilities
4. Intersection control improvement at CSAH 13 and 40th Street and 36th Street
Preliminary design along with public engagement was completed with the corridor study and will need to be reviewed due to the fact there is large scale development
potential to the west of CSAH 13 that will require coordination. A final project scope, right-of-way acquisition required, and cost estimates will be refined prior to starting
final design. The estimated cost is based on the corridor study.
Project #RB-2623
Justification
CSAH 13 is a north-south minor arterial serving regional traffic in Oakdale and Lake Elmo. Land development in the area continues to have a lot of activity including
requests for new access onto CSAH 13. Providing for increased capacity and allowing appropriate access is critical for regional traffic.
Phase I was constructed in 2017 and included highway reconstruction with the addition of a trail on the west side, sanitary sewer, and stormwater treatment facilities.
Budget Impact/Other
The project funding is contingent on receiving state grants through a competitive process managed by the Minnesota Department of Transportation. If this project is not
selected it will need to be delayed.

Description
The project scope includes the following improvements to County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 14 (Stillwater Blvd) through Lake Elmo downtown area:
1) Safety improvements
2) Access management
3) Pavement improvement
4) Turn lane and intersection improvements
5) Pedestrian and non-motorized accommodations
6) Drainage improvements that align with the regional drainage plan developed in 2015
Project #RB-2643
Justification
CSAH 14 is a two lane arterial highway that runs through the heart of the City of Lake Elmo. There are numerous access points, a lack of turn lane accommodations and
minimal pedestrian accommodations throughout this approximately 1.5 mile segment..
Additionally, surface water management is accomplished via a series of ditches and culverts, many of which have partially collapsed or filled in. The result is localized
flooding and standing water issues.
This entire corridor needs to be reconstructed to better accommodate traffic demand, while serving pedestrians and providing reasonable and safe access to local businesses
and residents.
Budget Impact/Other
The project will increase operation and maintenance costs associated with additional pavement, trails, and sidewalk infrastructure which will require additional resources to
own, operate and maintain.

Description
The project scope includes the following improvements to County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 13 (Idea Avenue) located in Oakdale and Lake Elmo:
1) Safety improvements
2) Pavement improvement
3) Turn lane and intersection improvements
4) Pedestrian and non-motorized accommodations
5) Drainage improvements
Project #RB-2645
Justification
This segment of Idea Avenue was constructed in 2002, prior to major commercial developments in this area. These developments and their need for safe and efficient turn
lanes and access, drive the need to reconstruct this roadway to better accommodate the balance between access and mobility.
Additionally, the railroad crossing is in need of upgrades, including widening. This area is also a nexus for regional surface water drainage, thus the design needs to work
toward improving regional surface water management.
Budget Impact/Other
The project will increase operation and maintenance costs associated with additional pavement, drainage and sidewalk infrastructure.
