Metro Transit A Line BRT Project: Construction has started on the stations along Snelling Ave at County Road B and Larpenteur (in Falcon Heights). The actual shelters likely won't be installed until next spring. Actual BRT service is expected to start in the spring of 2016. Water Meter Replacement Project: • Anticipate completion of the replacement project in January with a very small percentage remaining due to difficulties physically accessing the meter Transit Shelter Franchise Update The City of Roseville has a franchise agreement for the placement and maintenance of transit shelters throughout the City. This agreement allows the franchisee, currently OutFront Media, tc place shelters in Roseville and sell advertisement on those shelters. The franchisee is required to maintain the shelters which includes snow removal and trash service. We have been recently informed that OutFront Media will not be extending this franchise agreement (it was set to expire in 2015). As a result, the City is being offered the opportunity to purchase the shelters at $1000 a piece ($20,000 total) or the franchisee will remove the shelters at their cost. This item will be brought to the City Council for a decision on the purchase option at their November 30a' meeting. Attached is the information for the Council packet for that meeting.
