Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT APRIL 5,2010 5B JANE KANSIER, BUILDING AND TRANSPORTATION SERVICES DIRECTOR CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING FULL AND FINAL PAYMENT TO SCOTT COUNTY FOR THE SOUTHBRIDGE CROSSINGS TRANSIT STATION CONSTRUCTION PROJECT Introduction The purpose of this item is to authorize full and final payment for the construction of the South bridge Crossings Transit Station. Historv In 2005, the Metropolitan Council, Scott County and the cities of Prior Lake and Shakopee began planning for the construction of a 550-stall park and ride facility to be known as South bridge Crossings Transit Station. Construction on the facility began in late 2006, and was substantially completed by July, 2007, when BlueXpress Service began operating from the site. Current Circumstances Although the project was substantially completed in July, 2007, there were remaining items to be completed and corrected. These included the access control system, the surveillance system, lighting, striping, sidewalk changes, and bus lane changes. The final payment includes these items, as well as the 5% retainage. The City's share of the final payment is $40,206.61. There are no issues regarding this agenda item. According to the Cooperative Agreement between the City and Scott County, adopted in June, 2006, the City is responsible for 40% of the cost of the construction of the park and ride facility. The City staff has reviewed the past invoices and finds the current invoice consistent with that agreement. The preliminary estimates for this project indicated Prior Lake's share for this facility would be approximately $400,000. However, the bids came in lower than the original engineer's estimate, and the project received additional Federal and State funding. The final total project cost is $1,840,275.72. The table below is a breakdown of the cost share for this project: Federal State County Shakopee Prior Lake Total Proiect Cost $1,156,702.80 I $117,564.00 $4,684.92 $336,794.41 I $224,529.59 I $1,840,275.72 I www.cityofpriorlake.com Phone 952.447.9800 / Fax 952.447.4245 The City of Prior Lake will have paid a total of $224,529.59 for this project, which is 12% of the overall cost of the project. The total is well below the original estimate of the $400,000 cost to the City. Funding for this project has no impact on the City's general fund budget. All project costs are taken from the Transit Fund. ALTERNATIVES: There are three alternatives for the City Council to consider: 1. Adopt a resolution authorizing full and final payment to Scott County for the South bridge Crossings Transit Station Project. 2. Deny this item for a specific reason and provide staff with direction. 3. Table this item to a certain date in the future.
