<br /> <br />Staff would recommend adding the trail/sidewalk on the south side of County Road E <br />between the new bridge and Old Snelling Avenue to this project. The easiest time to <br />build this segment would be when the bridge is closed and there could be some <br />economies of scale to add this similar type of work to the County Road E project. Staff <br />has asked Bolton and Menk to prepare a cost estimate for just the initial analysis to <br />determine if it is possible to have this work added to the bid package for County Road E <br />(if we need temporary construction easements it may not be possible to get done in time). <br />The added cost would be $14,680 for a topographic survey, property/right-of-way <br />research and preliminary design at which time a decision would be made whether or not <br />this work could catch up to the rest of the project. If not, the work done by Bolton and <br />Menk would not be wasted; it would be useable work for the continuation of the project <br />at a later time. <br /> <br />The proposed project schedule moving forward would be: <br /> <br /> <br />Completion of the plans and review by City, Ramsey County, MnDOT office of State <br />Aid in the next 60-90 days <br /> <br />Walk tlate summer <br /> <br />Public Hearing/Assessment Hearing early November <br /> <br />Project bidding in November, early December <br /> <br />Consider awarded of the contract in January <br /> <br />Start construction in Spring of 2015 <br />33 <br />Page of <br /> <br />
