There are several greater M.L~esota ci~es that have ~tt.? situatiorm with ac~oin~g utility systems. Therefore, both cities can make use of the engineer~ format ancl legal documents as models for constructing infrastructure improvements with other cities. This. study will provide: (1) a model engineering study document tha: can be used by other M/nnesota cities; (2) specihcally identLfied areas of' Lnfrastructure development r~vings in Anok~ end Rsmsey that may be replicated by o~er M/n~esom cities; and (8) model legal agreements for infrastructure shari.~ tha~ can be replicated by other Minnesota cities. Closer to home, the proposed study will prcrvlde results that have the potential ~ s~vlng erlsting and future An·ks and 1%amsey uLi]ity customers significant dollars in connectAon char~ and utLLity rates by not duplicatLng water, san/tary sewer, and storm water drainage facilities, Depending on the prc~ect, it is ant/ci~ted by the tLamsey City EngL~er the cos: savings by working together on the~e feasible projects could be in the area of ten to twenty percent in long-term ~avings to residents of b~th cities. By work/rig together, we would expect to improve the quahty en~ quantity o~sewer, water, and storm dra/n~e services to residents, as well. 2
