Subject:
Construction Cooperative Agreement with Scott County for the CSAH 78 improvements related to the Windermere South development.
Policy/Action Requested:
Authorize the execution of a Construction Cooperative Agreement with Scott County for the CSAH 78 improvements project at the Zumbro Avenue and Amelia Trial intersections.
Recommendation:
Authorize execution of the agreement.
Discussion:

Construction of the Windermere South development includes two new street connections onto CSAH 78 (see attached project layout). Improvements at the new intersection of CSAH 78 and Zumbro Avenue include the realignment of Zumbro Avenue south of CSAH 78 and construction of right and left turn lanes for eastbound and westbound traffic. Improvements at the new intersection of CSAH 78 and Amelia Trail include construction of a westbound right-turn lane, a splitter island on the southbound approach and a center median to limit the new access to right-in/right-out movements.

 

As part of the project approval, Scott County and the developer have agreed to split the cost of the improvements. The City is acting as a facilitator for the pass-through funding. Upon completion of the project the developer will invoice the city and the city will collect the money from Scott County per the Construction Cooperative Agreement and per the development agreement.

Budget Impact:

None. The City of Shakopee is acting as a facilitator for pass-through funding from Scott County to the developer.
