negative in keeping with his objections to constructing the trail connection and, to a lesser degree, due to raised medians being proposed along CSAH 5 (Nowthen Blvd). It should be noted that the Public Works Committee recommended annroval based on a city cost share that was more than $6OK less than the amount presented herein. The citv's cost share and attached JPA were updated by Anoka County after the Public Works Committee meeting and was submitted to City staff on Thursday. December L According to Anoka County, the citv's share increased because the previous estimate included all drainage improvements as Anoka County costs. These costs were then prorated based on the percentage of runoff coming from the Citv's and the Countv's right-of-ways. This percentage may still change based on State Aid percentages, but the estimates now show $111.026.61 as the City portion of the drainage minus $63.317.8 (federal funds) with $47.708.81 being the Citv's cost for drainage. Also. additions to common excavation. bituminous pavement removal and aggregate base class 5 auantities increased the total proiect cost causing the federal funding percentage to ao from 60% to 57% which also affected the Citv's cost share. Alternatives: Alternative #1 — Motion adopting Resolution #13-12-217 approving the attached draft Joint Powers Agreement between Anoka County and the City of Ramsey for the CSAH 5 (Nowthen Blvd) /Alpine Drive Intersection Improvements as written. Alternative #2 — Motion adopting Resolution #13-12-217 approving the attached draft Joint Powers Agreement between Anoka County and the City of Ramsey for the CSAH 5 (Nowthen Blvd) /Alpine Drive Intersection Improvements with the following modifications; Alternative #3 — Motion denying adoption of Resolution #13-12-217 at this time. Funding Source: Funding splits for this project will be apportioned as indicated in the Joint Powers Agreement using Anoka County's standard cost sharing policy. The City's share would be funded using a mix of Municipal State Aid Funds, Park and Recreation Funds, and Water Utility Funds. The City's total costs for the improvements shown on the attached project layout are estimated to be $226,014.30 (construction and construction engineering). This total reflects a reduction of $190,777.80 due to the application of federal funding received by Anoka County for this project. The total cost includes costs for constructing the trail connection north of Alpine Drive between CSAH 5 (Nowthen Blvd) and Krypton Street, as well as the trunk watermain connection under the proposed trail connection. If Council chooses not to approve these items with the project the City's total costs would be reduced by $46,800 bringing the total estimated City cost to $179,214.30. It is important to note that these costs are based on engineer's estimates and that the city's actual costs will be based on final construction costs, which may be more or less than estimated costs. Recommendation: Staff recommends selecting Alternative #1 or #2 if the City Council supports the project and is in agreement with the attached draft JPA as drafted, or with only minor revisions as noted. Staff recommends selecting Alternative #3 if the City Council does not support the project and/or the draft JPA without significant modifications. Action: Alternative #1 — Motion adopting Resolution #13-12-217 approving the draft JPA as written. Alternative #2 — Motion adopting Resolution #13-12-217 approving the draft JPA with the following modifications; Alternative #3 — Motion denying adoption of Resolution #13-12-217 at this time.
