This Cooperative Agreement covers the 72-inch storm sewer <br />pipe on the east side of TH 169 and the 60-inch storm sewer pipe on the west side of TH <br />169. The Cooperative Agreement estimates the Citts cost at $413,203.15 for both of these <br />pipes. This includes 84% of the construction cost plus 8% overhead. The 84% figure was <br />calculated by determining the peak flow from the MnDOT interchange versus the peak flow <br />from the City of Elk River as a ratio. <br /> <br />If you recall, when we first began working with MnDOT and anticipated three parallel 42- <br />inch pipes on the east side of TH 169, we were estimating the City's cost for just that side <br />at $525,000 to $600,000. We had never prepared an estimate for the City's participation in <br />the 60-inch pipe on the west side of TH 169. We believe that a total cost of just over <br />$400,000 for both of these is a reasonable amount to be paid by the City for their <br />participation in this construction. <br /> <br />MnDOT has advertised this project for bids. Bids are anticipated to be opened on March 11; <br />therefore, they require the execution of both the Cooperative Agreement and the resolution <br />prior to that date. We would recommend City approval of both of these documents. They <br />can then be forwarded directly to Howard Ries at MnDOT's office in Oakdale, Minnesota. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding this, please call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br /> <br />;;U4;;~~U0 <br />Terry J.
