Page 2 of 2 <br /> <br />Old Snelling Avenue improvements are anticipated to involve funding derived from special <br />assessments. The special assessment process must follow the City’s current special assessment <br />policy and maintain compliance with the requirements of Minnesota Statutes Chapter 429. The <br />initial step in the special assessment process is to complete a feasibility report. Due to project <br />specific challenges, including soil conditions, utility coordination and potential easement <br />acquisition, the feasibility report is recommended to include a site survey, geotechnical <br />investigation, and preliminary schematic layout . <br /> <br />Discussion <br /> <br />Over the past ten years, the City has undertaken multiple studies of the Old Snelling Avenue <br />corridor to identify potential infrastructure improvements. The four primary studies are listed <br />below. <br /> <br /> 2010 Geotechnical Exploration Report <br /> 2010 Preliminary Scoping Document <br /> 2012 Feasibility Report <br /> 2018 Intersection Control Evaluation <br /> <br />The Public Works Department is seeking an opportunity to briefly discuss the past studies and <br />review the preliminary project schedule as provided in Attachment A. A decision regarding the <br />schedule and project delivery process should be made in the near future to allow sufficient time <br />for project design and the anticipated special assessment process. <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> <br />Attachment A: Old Snelling Avenue and County Road E Improvements, Draft Project Delivery <br />Schedule
