Council direction, these estimated sources of funds can be adjusted (i.e. $1.5 million in TIF <br />funds and zero in MSA funds). <br /> <br /> <br />Other Projects <br />The three other projects the Council should review are the: County Road E (B2 District) project, <br />the County Road E Bridge replacement project, and the Snelling Avenue improvement (from CR <br />E to 51) project. All three of these projects have previously been discussed by the Council and <br />will require more City Council discussions before decisions can be made. These three projects <br />are separate projects but are also directly related to each other. The timing of the Bridge project <br />may impact the timing of both the B2/CR E and the Snelling projects. It should be noted that <br />MSA funds can also be used for parts of all three projects. <br /> <br />th <br />The B2/CR E project was on the June 10 work session. The scope and timing of the project are <br />two key issues that will be considered when the Feasibility Study comes to the City Council in <br />the next month or so. Please note that the 2014-18 CIP shows this project taking place in two <br />phases (in 2015 and in 2018) and using a lot of MSA funds and PIR funds. The CIP does not list <br />any assessments or County contributions as revenue sources. Adjustments in this part of the CIP <br />are anticipated before the document is adopted in December 2013. <br /> <br />The Council should also note that the Snelling Avenue project is not listed in the 2014-18 CIP. <br />When the Snelling Avenue report was accepted by the Council in March 2012, it was stated that <br />the project would be evaluated annually with the CIP. In brief, this reclamation project, without a <br />trail, is about $1 million and the bridge is about $500,000. <br /> <br />The County Road E bridge project is scheduled for 2015. A sidewalk on one or both sides of the <br />new bridge is the main City issue and funding consideration. Options for the bridge design are <br />being worked on by MnDOT. <br /> <br />Attachments: <br /> <br />Attachment A: Memo from Patrick Klaers, City Administrator, dated June 6, 2013, and Xcel <br />Information <br />Attachment B: Memo from Terry Maurer, Public Works Director, dated June 12, 2013 <br />Attachment C: Memo from Sue Iverson, Director of Finance and Administrative Services, dated <br />February 21, 2012 <br /> <br />22 <br />Page of <br /> <br />
