This segment of street borders the two cities. Tne condition of this segment of roadway <br />is poor. Both cities have been planning for pavement reconstruction once the turnback was <br />complete.

It is <br />necessary to have an agreement laying out individual City responsibilities for this reconstruction <br />project. The City of Roseville has proposed to take the lead on this project for engineering <br />services including contract administration and construction management. This project will be <br />developed using in-house staff. <br />A street reconstruction agreement is necessary to detail the terms and responsibilities of this <br />cooperative project.

We <br />will be back with a proposed schedule at a future meeting. <br />Financial Implications: Each City will pay for their own portion of the project construction <br />within their City boundaries, which will be approximately a 50-50 split. Roseville will perform <br />the engineering services and will be reimbursed for the Falcon Heights share. This project is <br />proposed to be funded through MSA funds, County tumback funds, and City assessments. <br />Policy Objectives: The attached agreement delineates project and payment responsibilities <br />related to the project. City policy is to cooperate with adjacent cities for mutual benefit <br />whenever possible. <br />RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION: <br />Motion to approve the Street Reconstruction Agreement with the City of Falcon Heights for the <br />reconstruction of �tos�lawn Avenue from Snelling Avenue to Ha�aline Avenue. <br />Prepared by: Duane Schwartz <br />
