June 30, 2022 Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Hugo 14669 Fitzgerald Avenue North Hugo, MN 55038 Re: 2022-2026 Capital Improvement Plan - Authorization to Prepare Plans and Specifications for the 2023 Street Improvement Project (Birch Tree Ponds Area Street Improvement Project) Dear Mayor and Council, Each year the City reviews and assesses priorities for upcoming capital improvement projects throughout the City. Staff has reviewed recent road rating data completed in 2021 and had developed an updated 5-year Capital Improvements Plan that City Council had approved on February 7, 2022. Attached is the map highlighting the proposed capital improvements as well as the associated costs for years 2022-2026. We have worked closely with Finance Director Wobse, to confirm that the plan as outlined is economically feasible and fits with long term financial planning. Staff is requesting feedback from City Council to confirm the improvements identified for 2023 remain the Council’s next priority. Staff is recommending moving forward with the Capital Improvement Plan Project identified for 2023 in the Capital Improvement Plan map, which is the Birch Tree Ponds Area Street Improvement Project. Staff is requesting authorization to prepare the feasibility study for the 2023 Birch Tree Ponds Area Street Improvement Project. If authorized, staff will notify residents of this effort and coordinate an early informational meeting about the proposed project. If you have any questions or items you wish to discuss, you can contact me at 612-360-1278. Sincerely, WSB & Associates, Inc.
