Box 490 <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: TH 10/101/169 IMPROVEMENTS <br />MnDOT COORDINATION <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Klaers: <br /> <br />As you aware, we are continuing to work with MnDOT relative to adding city storm sewer <br />improvements to the TH 10/101/169 project. We believe we will be successful in getting <br />MnDOT away from the idea of three parallel storm sewer pipes and reduce that to two <br />larger or possibly one 72" diameter storm sewer pipe. We will know better in <br />approximately two weeks what the final design will be. <br /> <br />The process by which the city is allowed to add work to a MnDOT project is called a <br />Cooperative Construction Agreement Project. In order to initiate this process, MnDOT <br />rules require that the municipality submit a resolution to MnDOT requesting that the desired <br />improvements be included in the proposed project. The resolution must also indicate the <br />municipality's willingness to pay its fair share. We have prepared the attached draft <br />resolution for the City Council's consideration. Once adopted by the City Council, this will <br />be forwarded to MnDOT to begin the process of the preparation of a Cooperative <br />Agreement. <br /> <br />If you have any questions or would like additional information regarding this process, please <br />call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br /> <br />~~ <br />T~aurer~ <br /> <br />TJM:db <br />161..Q504.nov <br />
