The negotiations are moving <br />forward and the coach service is successful. There was a short update on the feasibility <br />studies of potential future stations at Ramsey and Sauk Rapids. The Ramsey site would have <br />a positive affect on the Cost Effectiveness Index (CEI) and the Sauk Rapids site would have <br />a negative affect. The CEI is the measurement that the FTA uses to rate the feasibility of <br />transit projects. <br /> <br />State funding, as of Friday, was still locked up in the bonding process. The House did not <br />include it in their version and the Senate included some funding in their version. <br /> <br /> <br />
