ITEM 9 <br />MEMO TO: Clerk -Administrator and City Council <br />FROM: Director of Public Works/Community Development <br />DATE: December 29, 1986 <br />SUBJECT: COUNTY ROAD I RECONSTRUCTION FROM T.R. 10 TO I-35W <br />Attached please find the following: <br />1. Letter from Ken Weltzin, Ramsey County Director and County <br />Engineer, dated December 18, 1986. <br />2. Final Feasibility Report for the subject project dated <br />December 15, 1986. <br />3. Possible funding sources for City contribution dated <br />December 29, 1986 <br />Ramsey County Public Works Department recommends reconstructing <br />County Road I with 4 travel lanes and curb and gutter. The road <br />is proposed to be 46 feet wide with no parking on either side. <br />The entire road surface is proposed to be concrete because two <br />St. Paul Water Utility conduits are located under the proposed <br />road. <br />Ramsey County estimated total cost for the project is <br />$1,631,659.00. The estimated total City contribution is <br />$305,313.00. Possible funding sources for the City's <br />contribution include M.S.A., City Street Maintenance Program, <br />Storm Water Management Fund, General Fund, assessments and the <br />School District. Attachment #3 lists possible funding sources <br />for the City's contribution. Ramsey County policy is that the <br />City shall not utilize M.S.A. Storm Sewer Funds on County <br />Reconstruction projects. Ramsey County requests that the City <br />utilize M.S.A. funds only for sidewalk, traffic signals and <br />right-of-way. <br />Ramsey County asks that the City of Mounds View approve the final <br />feasibility report and authorize the City Engineer to sign the <br />final feasibility report and return said report to Ramsey County. <br />Some issues need further discussion. One issue is, should we <br />install a sidewalk on the south side of County Road I, <br />particularly in the area of Pinewood School? The cost of one 8' <br />wide concrete sidewalk is included in the above cost estimate in <br />the amount of $96,046. A 5' wide concrete sidewalk costs <br />$60,000. If a sidewalk is installed on the south side of County <br />Road I, additional right-of-way will need to be purchased. <br />Ramsey County estimates that the additional cost to purchase this <br />right-of-way is approximately $90,000. The City may be able to <br />acquire the right-of-way for considerably less than that figure. <br />The City will need to acquire right-of-way from the Tom Thumb <br />Store, apartment owners on the south sie of County Road I between <br />
