FROM:Steve Lillehaug, City Engineer/Public Works Director
TO:Mayor and Council Members
Subject:
Agreement with Scott County for the County's Traffic Signal located at County Highway 15 and 16
Policy/Action Requested:
Authorize a Cooperative Maintenance Agreement between Scott County and the City of Shakopee to operate the traffic signal located at the intersection of County Highway 15 and 16.
Recommendation:
Approval of the agreement.
Discussion:

Scott County is currently installing a new traffic signal at the intersection of County Highway 15 and 16. The intersection is under the full jurisdiction of the county as will be the ownership and  maintenance of the new traffic signal system. However, similar to other county signals in the city, the City of Shakopee has agreed to be responsible for the Emergency Vehicle Pre-Emption system, the street lighting, and the electrical power.

 

The recommended Cooperative Maintenance Agreement will codify the traffic signal partnership similar to and consistent with the many other city-county agreements.

Budget Impact:

The city expenses will be budgeted for in the Street Maintenance Operating budget, most notably for monthly power costs (approximately $700 annually).
