15) 1716` Area Environmental Review and Preliminary Engineering With direction received at the December 13 work session, I will be working with the planning department to solicit proposals for the completion of an AUAR over the entire project and a preliminary engineering report for Phase 1 of the development. Schedule The schedule will be defined when proposals have been received and evaluated. We are expecting to receive proposals by the end of February, 2011. 16) Transportation Plan Update An update to the transportation plan was included in the 2011 CIP. The last update completed was in 2004. A lot of things have changed since the 2004 update. Some of the changes include the planning along the TH 10 and TH 169 corridors and the updates to the Sherburne County and Anoka County transportation plans. It is appropriate we revise our plan to assure it fits with some of the plans that the other agencies have completed that affect the traffic patterns within Elk River. Schedule I would propose completing our transportation plan update after the transportation work has been completed as part of the AUAR process for the 1715` Area. The modeling and analysis completed in that plan will have a large effect on our final transportation plan. This would allow for the transportation plan update to be started late in 2011. 17) Policy Updates The previous Public Works Director was directed to develop a traffic calming policy to address the ever increasing amount of inquiries the City receives in regards to traffic concerns. It was also on the list to review and update the Special Assessment policy. These updates were never completed. Schedule We will be working on the creation of a traffic calming policy and revision of the assessment policy in the coming months. We plan to bring them to a future work session for your review. 18) Development Close Outs There remain a number of private developments that have not been closed out or completed in accordance with their development agreements. Some remaining items include final bituminous wear, turf restoration, and miscellaneous punchlist items. Schedule Cuter the winter months I will be working with the planning department to review all outstanding developments and identify all required improvements that remain to be completed. Upon our full review we will be N:\PubGc Bodies\Ciry Council\Council RCA\Agenda Packet\1-10-2011\Engineer Update.docx
