The feasibilty study <br /> is now complete (a copy is attached for your review) and we have <br /> an estimated cost of $64, 300. 00 for the section of path within <br /> Shoreview. Shoreview has identified sufficient funds to build <br /> this portion of the project. <br /> Two of the major engineering considerations on the project are • <br /> the need for a bridge over Rice Creek and the method of <br /> proceeding under the I-35W bridge. Our feasibility study has <br /> adequately addressed the bridge over Rice Creek. It will be a <br /> prefabricated steel and wood structure. <br /> Our proposed schedule would have the Shoreview City Council <br /> approve the plans and specifications on June 4, 1990. The <br /> project bid opening would occur no later than July 11, 1990, with <br /> a project award on July 16, 1990. This schedule was established <br /> so the trail -would be completed by the "beginning of the new <br /> school year. <br /> The City of Shoreview would certainly be happy to coordinate the <br /> design, approvals and construction of the project in both <br /> Shoreview and Mounds View if this is the desire of Mounds View. <br /> I would propose. that a joint powers agreement be executed <br /> establishing the sharing of costs and responsibilities between <br /> the cities . The approval of this agreement could occur <br /> simultaneously with the design of the project, so that the <br /> schedule is not adversely impacted. Please contact either Chuck <br /> • Ahl, our Public Works Director, or myself, if you require any <br /> additional information. <br /> CITY OF SHOREVIEW • <br /> Dwight D. Johnson <br /> City Manager <br /> #90-12 <br />
