CC Work Session 2, 4, Meeting Date: 07/23/2019 Information Title: Receive Staff Update on Future Anoka County Highway Improvement Projects in the City of Ramsey Purpose/Background: Purpose: The purpose of this case is to receive an update from City Staff on proposed Anoka County highway improvement projects within the City of Ramsey. Background: Anoka County is currently proposing two significant improvement projects on their highways within the City of Ramsey within the next 5 years. The first project proposes to construct a roundabout at the intersection of Anoka County State Aid Highway 83 (CSAH 83) and Alpine Drive NW. The second project proposes to construct additional turn lanes at the intersection of CSAH 116/Bunker Lake Boulevard and State Highway 47/Saint Francis Boulevard. Staff will review preliminary layouts, project cost estimates, proposed funding sources, and tentative construction schedules for these proposed improvements with the City Council during the work session. Timeframe: Staff estimates 20 minutes will be needed to present this case and respond to questions. Funding Source: Anoka County applied for and received grant funds for both projects. The awarded grant funds will reduce the cost shares for all parties involved, including the City of Ramsey's cost share. Local costs will be based on Anoka County's most current cost sharing policy at the time the projects receive final approval. Local funding sources will be identified as the projects are closer to this final approval. All City funds expended on these projects will require future City Council approvals. Responsible Party(ies): City Engineer Outcome: No action is required at this time. This case is only intended to update the City Council on the current status of these Anoka County led projects.
