RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 20-___ -Approving a Second
Amendment to the Agreement with Scott County for Participation in the Trunk Highway
169 Transitway Study and City’s Downtown Transit Improvement.
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this resolution is to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to execute a
second amendment to the Scott County Agreement for Participation in the Trunk
Highway 169 Transitway Study and the City’s downtown transit improvements. The
second amendment extends the date for commencement of construction improvements
for the Colorado Street public parking lot from 2020 to 2021 to better coincide with
anticipated redevelopment activities.
History
The City and County entered into an agreement authorized by the County Board on
December 16, 2014 for cost participation in the Trunk Highway 169 Transitway and
downtown transit improvements on the City of Prior Lake. This agreement was put in
place as part of the series of agreements with the Blue Express (Cities of Prior Lake
and Shakopee transit) joining the Minnesota Valley Joint Powers Board to provide
transit services.
As part of the agreement, the City deposited transit reserve funds in the amount of
$160,000 with the County for the 169 Transitway Study and future downtown transit
improvements in the City of Prior Lake. The downtown transit improvements were
envisioned as the possible rehabilitation of an existing city parking lot on the south side
of Colorado Street between Main Avenue and Arcadia Avenue.
Current Circumstances
On May 15, 2018, the County Board approved Resolution No. 2018—88 to extend the
agreement to 2020. Due to ongoing State and County projects on Trunk Highway 13
and County Road 21, and a potential private development on the adjacent property, the
City desires to wait until 2021 to complete the parking lot rehabilitation to avoid
interference. The existing agreement stated the downtown transit improvements are to
begin construction by the end of 2020 or the funds would be provided to Minnesota
1
Valley Transit Authority(MVTA). This amendment extends the date for commencement
of construction from 2020 to 2021.
