F-� � � E.-.aa �', : �' TO: Mayor & City Council � ��-'� � � � � � � � Mark McNeill, City Administrator � FROM: Bruce Loney, Public Works Director I SUBJECT: Approval of Standard Road Maintenance Agreement for � CSAH 15 and C.R. 77 between the City of Shakopee and � Scott County DATE: November 1, 2011 INTRODUCTION: '� Attached is a Scott County Standard Road Maintenance Agreement between the City of Shakopee and Scott County for maintenance of CSAH 15, from Vierling Drive to 6 th i Avenue; and C.R. 77 (Fuller Street), from CSAH 78 to the southern City limits. BACKGROUND: Both Scott County and the City of Shakopee Public Works Department have conducted meetings to discuss the efficiency of the City doing maintenance of certain County I roadways within the City of Shakopee and how to reimburse the City for those maintenance services. The attached Standard Road Maintenance Agreement does address the maintenance to be performed by the City's Public Works Department on CSAH 15 and on C.R. 77, as described in the agreement and how the City would be � � reimbursed for those maintenance services. This agreement was previously approved by City Council on October 2, 2007, and the only change is to extend the agreement to December 31, 2013. The main maintenance responsibility, within this agreement, is for the City to provide snow and ice control activities, surface maintenance such as pavement repair and street sweeping, drainage maintenance and vegetation control such as mowing, tree trimming and control of toxic weeds. The City's Public Works Department would not be ' responsible for extra-ordinary maintenance, which is described in the agreement. The County could ask the City to do such work but a separate agreement would be needed I between the City and the County to do this work. The County wi11 reimburse the Cit for actual labor and e ui ment for maintenance Y q P I activities required in carrying out this agreement. Staff will need to set up the appropriate financial tracking program in order to invoice the County for those items used in carrying i out the maintenance activities and also for future potential audits. � _ i _ - __ _ -__ __ __ __ _ __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I I � � � I The main emphasis for this agreement is to improve the effectiveness of maintenance i activities for these two roadways within the City of Shakopee, and primarily the snow ' and ice control response time. City staff and County staff have met on a regular basis to � discuss areas to meet the maintenance responsibilities in a more effective manner for both parties. City staff believes this is would be a win/win situation, as the City Public Works Department can effectively maintain these roadways as we have forces in the area in � order to do the work. I I I ALTERNATIVES: I 1. Approve a motion authorizing the appropriate City officials to execute the Scott � County Standard Road Maintenance Agreement for CSAH 15 and C.R. 77. I 2. Do not authorize the appropriate City officials to execute this agreement. I I � 3. Table for additional information. � ' RECOMMENDATION: � Staff would recommend Alternative No. 1. This is a more effective way of performing ' , road maintenance activities for both the City and the County. ACTION REQUESTED: � I Approve a motion authorizing the appropriate City officials to execute the Scott County Standard Road Maintenance Agreement for CSAH 15 and C.R. 77. � I i � Bruce Loney .E.
