HomeMy WebLinkAbout5G Kensington Avenue Agreement Report 4646 Dakota Street SE Prior Lake, MN 55372 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT MEETING DATE: JUNE 12, 2017 AGENDA #: 5G PREPARED BY: PRESENTED BY: JEFF MATZKE, PLANNER JEFF MATZKE AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY TO ENTER A COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT WITH SCOTT COUNTY FOR THE KENSINGTON AVENUE TURNAROUND DISCUSSION: Introduction The purpose of this agenda item is to authorize the City to enter a Cooperative Agreement with the Scott County for the construction of a turnaround on Ken- sington Avenue at County Highway 42. The turnaround construction and removal of direct access from Kensington Avenue to CH42 will occur with the Summit Preserve residential development project. History The Summit Preserve development at the northeast corner of CH 42 and CH 18 is a mix of 177 proposed single family homes and townhomes. On May 22, 2017 the City Council approved the Summit Preserve Final Plat and Development Agreement. The Development Agreement references a separate agreement which will be considered for transfer of funds from Scott County to the City of Prior Lake to be utilized for the construction of a turnaround on Kensington Ave- nue. The Scott County Board approved a resolution to authorize entering a co- operative agreement with the City related to this item at their May 15, 2017 meet- ing. Current Circumstances As part of the residential development, Summit Preserve will be constructing a new full access street at Aspen Avenue, a location that is consistent with the County Highway 42 Corridor Study. Kensington Avenue is an existing city street east of the proposed development’s property. The Summit Preserve developer, Scott County, and the City are participating in the construction of the turnaround and elimination of direct access from Kensington Avenue to/from CH42. Conclusion City staff recommends approval of the resolution to authorize the City to enter a cooperative agreement with Scott County for cost-sharing the construction of a turnaround on Kensington Avenue. ISSUES: The elimination of direct access from Kensington Avenue to CH42 is identified in the City’s Land Use and Transportation section of its Comprehensive Plan. The construction costs include removal of a right turn lane and closure of street con- nection on CH 42. This project will benefit the road system by reducing the conflict point at Kensington and CH42 and improving the turn lane geometrics of the full 2 access point being installed by the developer. The anticipated cost for the County’s share of the work is $35,000. As indicated in the approved Develop- ment Agreement, the City’s share of the work is $20,000 and will be funded by the trunk street oversize fund. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Approval of this item will allow the County to transfer $35,000 to the City which will then be paid to the developer as part of the oversizing terms under the Sum- mit Preserve Development Agreement. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Motion and a second, as part of the Consent Agenda, to approve a resolution to authorize the City to enter into a cooperative agreement with Scott County for the closure of Kensington Avenue at County Highway 42. 2. Motion and a second to remove this item from the consent agenda for addi- tional discussion. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Alternative #1 ATTACHMENTS: 1. Location Map 2. Kensington Avenue Exhibit 3.
