No. 6707 CITY OF SHAKOPEE Memorandum TO: Mayor & City Council Mark McNeill, City Administrator FROM: Bruce Loney, Public Works Director SUBJECT: Approval of Agreement No. 90999 between the City of Shakopee and the Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Commissioner of Transportation of the State of MN for Railroad Crossing Signals and Gates at the Intersection of Atwood Street DATE: December 18, 2007 INTRODUCTION: Attached to the memorandum is Agreement No. 90999 for the installation and maintenance of railroad crossing signals and gates with circuitry at the intersection of Atwood Street with the tracks of the Union Pacific Railroad Company. Also attached is a resolution authorizing the City of Shakopee to enter into this agreement with the Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Commissioner of Transportation of the State of Minnesota. BACKGROUND: The City of Shakopee has applied for additional safety improvements for its railroad crossings and was successful in obtaining Federal funding for the crossing at Atwood Street. Previously, the City of Shakopee has discussed these railroad crossings with the Railroad Safety Committee consisting of Councilor's Matt Lehmann and Terry Joos, along with Bruce Loney, Public Works Director, and with other representatives from Mn/DOT and the Union Pacific Railroad Company in 2004. With this agreement, the City of Shakopee will be responsible for 10% of the costs for the placement of the signals, gates and circuitry at this intersection. Also the City of Shakopee will be responsible for obtaining the right-of--way for a control cabinet for the crossing at Atwood Street. It is anticipated that areas exist in the 2°d Avenue right-of--way to accommodate the control cabinet. One additional item with this crossing improvement project is that gates have been approved by the railroad and Mn/DOT. Staff s initial application was for flashing signals similar to other crossing improvements. Mn/DOT's representative, Rick Van Wagner, is recommending signals and gates for this crossing. Attached is his a-mail on this and also if the City does not agree with gates, to provide reasons for not including gates. The main concern for placing gates at this location is whether the switching operation of rail cars at Rahr will close the gates during this operation. Staff did have a conversation with MNDOT to consider this concern during the design and implementation of the safety improvement. The City does pay on final costs of the project so if the gates were deleted, then the City's share would be less, however, the city would need to provide reasons on not installing the gates to MNDOT. Staff will be working with Mn/DOT's Office of Freight and Commercial Vehicle Operators for future safety improvements at Scott and Apgar Streets, as well as reviewing the other intersections for gates and other safety modifications. Attached to this memorandum is the proposed Capital Improvement Program sheet for this project and an estimated cost to the City would be approximately $50,000.00 to be paid out of the Capital Improvement Fund. In order for the City to proceed with this project, the execution of Agreement No. 90999 is necessary for the Union Pacific Railroad Company to install the flashing signals and for reimbursement by the State of MN of 90% of the project costs. The City's costs for the flashing signals and gates are estimated to be $28,611.80. The City will be required to provide power to the control cabinet as well. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve Resolution No. 6707, authorizing the appropriate City officials to execute Agreement No. 90999 with the Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Commissioner of Transportation for the State of MN for the installation and maintenance of railroad crossing flashers and gates with circuitry at the intersection of Atwood Street. 2. Do not approve Resolution No. 6707. 3. Table for additional information. RECOMMENDATION: Staff would recommend Alternative No. 1, to approve the agreement in order to improve the safety of the railroad crossing at the intersection of Atwood Street, utilizing Federal funding of 90% of the costs of the flashing signals and gates. ACTION REQUESTED: Offer Resolution No. 6707, Authorizing Agreement No. 90999 for Installing Railroad Crossing Flashers and Gates at Atwood Street and move its adoption. d8% Bruce Lo Public Wor s Director BLpmp ENGR/2007PROJECT S/2007COLJNCIIJMEMO-6707 RESOLUTION N0.6707 A Resolution Authorizing Agreement No. 90999 For Installing Railroad Crossing Flashers And Gates At Atwood Street BE IT RESOLVED, that the City of Shakopee enter into an agreement with the Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Commissioner of Transportation for the installation and maintenance of railroad crossing flashers with circuitry at the intersection of Atwood Street (MBAs 114) with the tracks of the Union Pacific Railroad Company in Shakopee, Scott County, Minnesota, and appointing the Commissioner of Transportation agent for the CiTy to supervise said project and administer available Federal Funds in accordance with Minnesota Statute, Section 161.36.
