FY2023 LPP Funding Request City of Ramsey — Riverdale Drive Extension Supporting Documentation and Additional Materials - Excerpts from the Highway 10 Access Planning Study are attached, including the original concept sketch and the Implementation Plan. The Highway 10 Access Planning Study involved strong and effective coordination between the study's project partners: • MnDOT, • Anoka County, • City of Ramsey, and • City of Anoka. Letter of Support - A letter is attached from Melissa Barnes, P.E., MnDOT Metro North Area Manager. Right -of -Way - Right of way will be required for the project. The City is currently working with Anoka County and developers to acquire the right of way. The City intends to acquire the necessary right-of- way for a portion of the proposed Riverdale Drive improvements through the property development process, whereby the necessary right-of-way is conveyed to the City during the platting process. The developers are targeting Preliminary Plat (master plan) approval and Construction Plan approval for Phase 1 of their development in the fall of 2021. The developers then intend to commence construction as soon as conditions allow in the Spring of 2022. However, the City could acquire the necessary right- of-way for the extension of Riverdale Drive earlier, if needed. The right of way will remain dedicated to the City of Ramsey, with none of the property being passed along to MnDOT. Excavations - Excavation will be required below the Class 5 to allow for installation of public utilities along the corridor. Maintenance - The frontage road, trail and pond will be maintained by the City of Ramsey after completion of construction. The attachments to this funding request letter include the Concept Sketch, existing conditions graphic, cost estimate, excerpts from the Highway 10 Access Planning Study, and letter of support from Melissa Barnes, MnDOT Metro District North Area Manager.
