FROM: Bruce Loney, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Approval of Agreement No. 86066 and
Agreement No. 86067 between the City of Shakopee and the
Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Commissioner of
Transportation ofthe State ofMN for Railroad Crossing
Flashers. at the Intersection of Sommerville and Spencer Street
DATE: November 3, 2004
INTRODUCTION:
Attached to the memorandum are Agreement No.'s 86066 and 86067 for the installation
and maintenance of railroad crossing flashers with circuitry at the intersection of
Sommerville and Spencer Street with the tracks of the Union Pacific Railroad Company.
Also attached are resolutions authorizing the City of Shakopee to enter into these
agreements with the Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Commissioner of
Transportation ofthe State ofMN.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Shakopee has applied for additional safety improvements for its railroad
crossings and was successful in obtaining Federal funding for two crossings. 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 MnlDOT and the
Union Pacific Railroad Company.
The Railroad Safety Committee and City Council did discuss the railroad safety
improvements and the selection for improvements was to be at Sommerville and Spencer
Street with the tracks of Union Pacific Railroad Company. Also, the Council did discuss
at its August 17, 2004 meeting, the preferred locations of signal cabinet bungalows for
these signals and selected the north side of the track for location.
With these agreements, the City of Shakopee will be responsible for 10% of the costs for
the placement of the signals and circuitry at these two intersections. Also the City of
Shakopee will be responsible for obtaining the right-of-way for a shared bungalow
between the crossing at Spencer Street and Sommerville Street, as well as responsible for
the cost of doing the necessary curb and road work on 2nd A venue to accommodate the
new flashers and provide proper clearances in accordance with the MN Manual on
Uniform Traffic Control Devices. It is anticipated that clearances are not met at the
Spencer Street crossing, thus there will be curb and road work that will be necessary to
meet the Federal clearances for the installation of the flasher light signals.
Attached to this memorandum is the proposed Capital Improvement Program sheet for
this proj eet and an estimated cost to the City would be. approximately $75,000. 00 Jobe ..
,...
paid out of the Capital Improvement Fund. In order for the City to proceed witl} this
project, the execution of Agreement No.'s 86066 and 86067 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 is
estimated to be $5,389.00 for the Sommerville Street signal and approximately
$13,686.80 for the Spencer Street signal. The City would need to obtain right-of-way for
the shared bungalow and pay for the roadway costs associated for providing proper
clearances on Spencer Street and Sommerville Street, if necessary.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Approve Resolution No. 6143 and Resolution No. 6144, authorizing the
appropriate City officials to execute Agreement No. 86066 and Agreement No.
86067 with the Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Commissioner of
Transportation for the State ofMN for the installation and maintenance of railroad
crossing flashers with circuitry at the intersections of Sommerville Street and
Spencer Street respectively.
2. Do not approve Resolution No. 6143 and Resolution No. 6144.
3. Table for additional information.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff would recommend Alternative No.1, to approve the agreements in order to improve
the safety of the railroad crossings at the intersection of Sommerville and Spencer Street,
utilizing Federal funding of90% of the costs of the flashing signals.

officials to execute Agreement No. 86066 and Agreement No. 86067 with the Union

Memorandum
TO: Mayor & City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Bruce Loney, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Approval of Agreement No. 86066 and
Agreement No. 86067 between the City of Shakopee and the
Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Commissioner of
Transportation of the State of MN for Railroad Crossing
Flashers at the Intersection of Sommerville and Spencer Street
DATE: November 3, 2004
INTRODUCTION:
Attached to the memorandum are Agreement No.'s 86066 and 86067 for the installation
and maintenance of railroad crossing flashers with circuitry at the intersection of
Sommerville and Spencer Street with the tracks of the Union Pacific Railroad Company.
Also attached ~e resolutions authorizing the City of Shakopee to enter into these
agreements with the Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Commissioner of
Transportation of the State ofMN.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Shakopee has applied for additional safety improvements for its railroad
crossings and was successful in obtaining Federal funding for two crossings. 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 MnlDOT and the
Union Pacific Railroad Company.
The Railroad Safety Committee and City Council did discuss the railroad safety
improvements and the selection for improvements was to be at Sommerville and Spencer
Street with the tracks of Union Pacific Railroad Company. Also, the Council did discuss
at its August 17, 2004 meeting, the preferred locations of signal cabinet bungalows for
these signals and selected the north side ofthe track for location.
" .<
With these agreements, the City of Shakopee will be responsible for 10% of the costs for
the placement of the signals and circuitry at these two intersections. Also the City of
Shakopee will be responsible for obtaining the right-of-way for a shared bungalow
between the crossing at Spencer Street and Sommerville Street, as well as responsible for
the cost of doing the necessary curb and road work on 2nd A venue to accommodate the
new flashers and provide proper clearances in accordance with the MN. Manual on
Uniform Traffic Control Devices. It is anticipated that clearances are not met at the
Spencer Street crossing, thus there will be curb and road work that will be necessary to
meet the Federal clearances for the installation ofthe flasher light signals.
Attached to this memorandum is the proposed Capital Improvement Program sheet for
this project and an estimated cost to the City would be approximately $75,000.00 to be
paid out of the Capital Improvement Fund. In order for the City to proceed with this
project, the execution of Agreement No.'s 86066 and 86067 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 is
estimated to be $5,389.00 for the Sommerville Street signal and approximately
$13,686.80 for the Spencer Street signal. The City would need to obtain right-of-way for
the shared bungalow and pay for the roadway costs associated for providing proper
clearances on Spencer Street and Sommerville Street, if necessary.
