REQUEST FOR ACTION <br />ver <br />To Item Number <br />Ci Council 6.3. <br />Agenda Section <br />Administration Meeting Date <br />March 2, 2009 Prepared by <br />Lori ohnson, Ci Administrator <br />Item Description Reviewed by <br />ort to the Ciry of Rogers Request for Stimulus <br />Letter of Su <br />pp <br />Funding for Regional Metro Stimulus Money Reviewed by <br />Action Requested <br />Sign a letter of support for the City of Rogers for the construction of the TH 10 Flyover project. <br />Background/Discussion <br />On Thursday, I received a call from the Rogers City Administrator and Public Works director regarding <br />the Highway 101 /94 westbound off-ramp, for which they are seeking funding. This is the project that <br />was highlighted in the Elk Giver Star Neavs on Wednesday. The City of Rogers has requested the Ciry of <br />Elk River's support in their request for stimulus funding from the Metro region through the MnDOT <br />share of funds. In other words, this is not the same pool of funds from which Elk River was competing <br />for its projects. Rogers and Elk River as you know are in different MnDOT districts. <br />Obviously improvements to Highway 101 /94 would benefit the Elk River residents who travels that <br />route frequently. Support of this project in no way takes away from any funding request for Elk River <br />projects. <br />Financial Impact <br />Attachments <br />^ Letter of Support <br />^ Map of Proposed Improvements <br />Action Motion by Second by Vote <br />Follow Up <br />S:\Council\Lori\2009\memo and letter of support Rogers stimulus money 030209.doc <br />
