CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION REPORT
MEETING DATE: OCTOBER 27TH, 2014
PREPARED BY: LARRY POPPLER, CITY ENGINEER/ INSPECTIONS DIRECTOR
PRESENTED BY: LARRY POPPLER
AGENDA ITEM: 2015 PROJECT PREVIEW
DISCUSSION: Introduction
The City has a number of projects scheduled for construction in 2015. City Staff
has already begun planning and design of these projects. The worksession will
provide updates to these projects and provide an overall funding table.
History
On August 25th, 2014 the City Council approved the Capital Improvement Plan
(CIP) The CIP includes the projects that are planned over the next five years.
The Transportation Plan is a component of the CIP and provides information about
the projects contemplated.
Current Circumstances
The work session will discuss the 2015 transportation projects. The work ses-
sion will focus on the following for each project:
• Project Purpose
• Challenges
• Status
• Schedule
Graphics showing the project concepts will also be shared. At the conclusion of
the discussion of each project, an overall funding table will be reviewed.
The projects discussed at the work session will include:
• Mushtown Road / Maple Lane/ Panama Avenue
• Rolling Oaks Circle (ON HOLD)
• 150th Street and TH 13
• Stemmer Ridge Road
• Duluth Avenue /TH 13 Signal
• Credit River Road
• Highland /Marsh /Skyline
• Grainwood / Eau Claire
• County Road 21 / Main Ave/Arcadia Signal (ON HOLD)
Each project is in a different stage in the project delivery process. Some projects
may also be delayed for specific reasons. City Council direction will be requested
on the next steps for each of these projects. The completion of all 2015 projects
listed has two primary impacts. On one hand the council will be taking significant
steps consistent with our Capital Improvement Program and 2040 Vision and Stra-
tegic Plan toward completing necessary projects and in the process curbing
maintenance costs in the short run. On the other hand, staff estimates that the
2016 impact of completing all 2015 projects will result in an approxiamate 5% in-
crease in the debt service levy in 2016. Does the City Council still support all the
projects?
