Observations: On April 12, 2020, Council authorized Staff to work with Anoka County Staff to develop a Joint Powers Agreement to define the respective costs and responsibilities of both parties pertaining to completing a traffic study along Bunker Lake Boulevard between Armstrong Boulevard and Sunfish Lake Boulevard. The intent of the traffic study was to verify the required capacity improvements to Bunker Lake Boulevard. However, as Staff started working with Anoka County to develop the JPA, Anoka County informed the City that MnDOT had hired SRF to complete a traffic study on Bunker Lake Boulevard between Armstrong Boulevard and 7 th Avenue, and that the results of this study could potentially be used in lieu of completing our own study. This JPA was therefore never developed. Alternatives: Alternative #1 — Motion to adopt Resolution #21-044 adopting concept level layout review comments on Anoka County's interim improvements proposed to Bunker Lake Boulevard/County Road 116. Alternative #2 — Motion to deny adoption of Resolution #21-044 at this time. Funding Source: No costs are associated with this request. Anoka County is preparing cost estimates to allow cost -share discussions to be conducted in the near future for the proposed 2021 interim improvements. As a result of the cost -share discussions, amendments to the attached RTC JPA may be warranted. Recommendation: Staff recommends alternative #1. Action: Adopt Resolution #21-044 adopting concept level layout review comments on Anoka County's interim improvements proposed to Bunker Lake Boulevard/County Road 116.
