StEVE ALBRECHT, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING PREPARATION
OF A CR 42 FRONTAGE ROAD STUDY BETWEEN COMMERCE AVENUE
AND RUTGERS STREET BY WSB & ASSOCIATES
Introduction
The purpose of this agenda item is for the City Council to authorize preparation
of a CR 42 Frontage Road Study Between Commerce Avenue and Rutgers
Street by WSB & Associates.
Historv
For several years the Cities of Prior lake and Savage and Scott County have
been working on improvements along CR 42. In May of 2004 a preliminary
corridor design was completed by WSB between Greenway Avenue/Boone
Avenue and louisiana Avenue for review by both Cities and the County Board.
The design of this project was suspended in 2004 as the County evaluated the
intersection options for CR 42 and TH 13 and reevaluated the Transportation
Implementation Plan (TIP) funding for this project. In the Fall of 2006 the County
re-initiated this project and added it to the TIP for completion in 2011.
Current Circumstances
An important element of this project is completion of a frontage road between
Rutgers Street and Commerce Avenue as access to CR 42 at Commerce
Avenue would be closed as part of this project.
The County has acquired ownership of the five properties along CR 42 between
Rutgers and Commerce. There are potentially two options for a frontage road in
this area. Both options have impacts and need to be evaluated by the City. The
attached exhibit shows the alternatives discussed in 2004. The purpose of this
agenda is not to evaluate the alternatives at this time but rather to authorize
preparation of a report that will identify all of the issues and include public
involvement. The study is necessary so the City Council can make an informed
decision regarding the frontage road alternatives and potential impacts.
WSB was retained previously by the City and County for this project and
therefore it is appropriate that they complete the study for the City. WSB has
provided a not-to-exceed proposal cost of $24,232.00 to the City for completion
of the study.
This study needs to be completed in order for the project to move forward. Staff
does not have the in-house capabilities to complete this study without assistance
from a consultant.

FINANCIAL
IMPACT:
Funding for this study should come from the Street Oversize Fund as the project
is related to improvement of capacity and safety on CR 42 due to growth.
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternatives are as follows:
1. Approve a resolution authorizing preparation of a frontage road study by
WSB & Associates for a cost not to exceed $24,232.00
2. Deny this item for a specific reason and provide Staff with direction.
3. Table this item until some date in the future.
