Request for Action To Item Number Mayor and City Council 8.3 Agenda Section Meeting Date Prepared by General Business October 16, 2023 Justin Femrite P.E., Public Works Director Item Description Reviewed by Twin Lakes Road and Kelley Parkway Extension - Cal Portner, City Administrator Project Funding Reviewed by Action Requested Approve, by motion, return of federal Surface Transportation Block Grant Program (STBGP) and Local Partnership Program (LPP) funding. Background/Discussion As discussed at the August 7 work session, staff has continued communication with MnDOT relating to the Twin Lakes Road and Kelley Parkway extension project. We affirmed our desire to proceed with the project we had originally submitted for funding which included a new signalized intersection on Highway 10 at the extension of Twin Lakes Road. See the attached email string with MnDOT identifying the lack of support for that project and a new signalized intersection. The STBGP and LPP funding to be returned at this time are annually available through local solicitation in our region should we develop an alternative project along this corridor in the future. We have affirmed our desire to continue to seek funding for the ultimate improvements to the TH 10 corridor (new interchanges). Financial Impact We would look to reprogram the State Aid funding we have allocated toward this project in the CIP, to other needs on our system.
