RIGHT OF WAY: The parties agree that the County will acquire all necessary right -of -way and easements for the Project. Acquisition of any additional right -of -way and /or easements needed for improvements to the City street intersections beyond what is defined in the Exhibit "A" Layout will be the responsibility of the City. It is agreed by the parties that all necessary right of way and easements will be in legal possession of the County prior to acceptance of bids for the project. Any City owned property or easements required for the construction will be conveyed to the County at no cost. DRAINAGE: The City shall pay for a percentage of the cost of the storm sewer system, including the detention basins and their outlet structures, pending the availability of Federal funding. The City portion of the cost is based on contributing flow through the storm sewer system to the detention basin determined by the product of contributing area and runoff coefficient. The parties understand and agree that the maintenance of the completed storm sewer system (excluding catch basins and catch basin leads), detention basins, and their outlet structures shall be the sole responsibility of the City. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES: A noise analysis is being performed as part of the Environmental Documentation process. If noise walls are required, the standard county cost share will apply, the county pays 100% for the noise walls in areas where the city has not been previously notified and the city pays 100% in the areas where they have been previously notified of potential noise walls. In addition, the city pays for any costs above the base cost of the noise wall. The project federal fund percentage ( determined by dividing total cost of federally eligible items by federal dollars available) will be applied to the cost of warranted noise walls. BITUMINOUS TRAIL: The parties agree that the construction of the bituminous trail along the north side of the roadway is eligible for federal funds and that the City will contribute all matching funds. This trail location has been agreed to by the City. If this location changes in the future, the additional costs associated with this change will be the responsibility of the City.. The parties understand that the cost for the trail includes: bituminous surfacing, aggregate base, excavation (including muck excavation), borrow material (granular and topsoil), and turf establishment. The parties agree that the County will pay for the design of the trail, wetland mitigation required by impacts caused by the trail, the additional right of way and easements required to construct the trail at the proper location, and any removal items, with the exception of soils, required to construct the trail. The parties understand and agree that all future maintenance of the trails, including snow plowing, shall be the sole responsibility of the City. The trail along the north side of CSAH 116 is part of the County Regional Trail System and is eligible for potential funding through the Metropolitan Council's Regional Parks Capital Improvement Program. After the project has been constructed, and a request has been made by the City to the county, the Anoka County Parks and Recreation Department will seek reimbursement for one -half of the City's share for trail construction along CSAH 116. If funds are secured, the Anoka County Parks and Recreation Department will reimburse the City with the additional funds received.
