Alternatives: <br />Alternative Actions: <br />1. Motion to adopt Resolution 14-08-171 approving Agency Agreement No.06607 for advance construction of <br />Mississippi River Trail Phase 1, SP 199-090-001. <br />2. Motion denying adoption of Resolution 14-08-171 at this time. If this alternative is selected, the portion of <br />the MRT along the Riverdale Drive Extension/Reconstruction project would likely be constructed at the same <br />time as the portion within the Armstrong Boulevard Interchange project in 2015 or 2016, depending on <br />future Council action. <br />Funding Source: <br />Construction costs for this portion of the MRT are estimated at $220,000. Staff anticipates that 80% of these costs <br />will be reimbursed with awarded grant funds in SFY 2016. Staff proposes using the Park Trust Fund to pay for <br />advance constructing portions of the MRT. Any funds recovered in SFY 2016 would then be deposited back into <br />this account. <br />The not -to -exceed engineering cost for Bolton & Menk to complete all necessary engineering work for this portion <br />of the MRT, which is not reimbursable using awarded grant funds, is $80,676. As noted earlier, Council approved <br />the use of up to $18,000 on March 25h, and up to $62,676 on June 24th, from the Park Trust Fund for the <br />engineering work. <br />In an effort to limit project costs, staff will continue to look for opportunities to complete portions of the <br />construction administration, staking, and inspections in-house. <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends approving alternative action # 1 for reasons previously noted. <br />Action: <br />Motion to adopt Resolution 14-08-171 approving Agency Agreement No.06607 for advance construction of <br />Mississippi River Trail, SP 199-090-001. <br />Attachments <br />Resolution 14 08 171 <br />Agreement 06607 <br />Council Minutes 032514 <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Mark Riverblood Mark Riverblood 08/21/2014 12:42 PM <br />Diana Lund Diana Lund 08/21/2014 02:08 PM <br />Kurt Ulrich Kurt Ulrich 08/21/2014 03:37 PM <br />Form Started By: Bruce Westby Started On: 08/21/2014 11:24 AM <br />Final Approval Date: 08/21/2014 <br />
