Approval of Springsted Phase 2 of Highway 10 Action Plan Development <br />Work Plan. <br /> <br />Dave Wettergren, Springsted, Inc., presented a proposed work plan for the Highway 10 Action <br />Plan. He noted the report that was presented at the last Council work session, as produced by a <br />task force, and the recommendation to proceed with the development of an action plan. The <br />report identified a number of capital and administrative items, many with associated costs. He <br />explained that Springsted is now presenting a proposed Phase 2 work plan that would engage the <br />City and Springsted whereby Springsted would assist the City in the work plan. The primary <br />objectives would be to assist the City to develop cost estimates and identify funding sources for <br />each administrative and capital item identified in the steering report. Springsted would also <br />assist the City in the prioritization of action items and the creation of implementation schedules <br />of items eventually included in the Highway 10 Plan. <br /> <br />Mr. Wettergren reviewed the highlighted action items to identify which issues would receive <br />further study, to attach cost estimates to the identified action items, and to develop a tentative <br />financing plan for consideration by the City. When project cost and funding alternatives are <br />identified, they will prioritize action items to be considered for plan implementation. He noted <br />this proposal contains several checks and balances to identify actions, then to determine cost <br />estimates and funding sources, with another Council opportunity to again address
