SUBJECT: Municipal Agreement Program Resolution
BACKGROUND
At the August 31, 2009 Regular City Council Meeting, staff received direction from Council to
prepare an application for funding through Mn/DOT's 2009 Municipal Agreement Program for
modifications to the existing County Road E bridge over Snelling Avenue (TH51). The City
Council amended the original Kimley-Horn County Road E contract to assist in the preparation
of this application.
The Municipal Agreement Program provides funding to construction projects that are developed
and administered by local agencies and provide a benefit to both the local community and the
trunk highway system. Right of Way, Utility Relocation and Design costs are not eligible for
funding. The Municipal Agreement Program utilizes the following four investment categories:
1. Support Community Development
2. Improve Safety
3. Improve Mobility
4. Maintaining Existing Infrastructure (Preservation)
Project proposals must be submitted by September 28, 2009 to be considered for the FY 2011
program. It is anticipated that the actual project selection will occur in January of 2010 with the
funds becoming available July 1, 2010. One of the required submittals for this application is a
resolution adopted by the City Council requesting such funding.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
The maximum award available for any individual project is $550,000 for construction plus 8%
for construction engineering and inspection, for a total of $594,000. Kimley-Horn has provided
a preliminary estimate for construction of the repairs to the County Road E Bridge in the amount
of $400,000. The estimate contains modifications to the existing bridge, as well as bituminous
