REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Included in your packet is a copy of the feasibility report addressing the reconstruction of Chelsea Road from CSAH 18 to Fallon Avenue.' As part of the overall interchange reconstruction project, the reconstruction of Chelsea Road to an urban section was delayed unti12007. Construction was delayed since Chelsea Road would be used as part of the detour during some of the CSAH 1$ construction. The overall agreement with the Monticello Industrial Park included a provision to commence reconstruction of Chelsea Road from CSAH 18 to Fallon Avenue n_o later than the start of tale 2007 construction season. As development continues in this area of the City, there is a need to upgrade the street and utility systems along the roadway. We have met. with all of the property owners along Chelsea Road that would be assessed for the project, including the alternate project, to describe theproposed project to them and obtain their feedback. Attached is a summary of their .comments. Prior discussions with the school district were initiated with the interchange project and staff is in the process of contacting them. As an alternate, .the feasibility report includes reconstructing and realigning the Chelsea Road/Fallon Avenue intersection. Realigning the intersection could improve the . intersection geometrics by creating 90 degree angles at the street approaches to reduce the curves entering the intersection and improve visibility and. turning movements. Realigning the intersection now would allow for minimal disturbances to traffic flow through the intersection during construction bf the future Fallon Avenue overpass and/or the future extension of the deep. trunk sanitary sewer along Fallon Avenue to the south. In addition, storm sewer will be extended through the intersection to the City's pond at the reservoir site with the project, and it would be beneficial to realign the intersection at this time and only reconstruct the road one time, since. the roadway will be excavated with the storm sewer construction. Realigning the intersection now would result in a cost savings of not having to reconstruct the roadway in the future for the Fallon Avenue overpass or the trunk sanitary sewer extension south along Fallon Avenue. The proposed infrastructure improvements would include reconstructing approximately 3,300 feet of Chelsea Road from where it was improved with the interchange project, approximately 800 feet west of CSAH 18, to Fallon Avenue with curb and gutter and storm sewer. With the alternate intersection alignment, Chelsea Road would be reconstructed approximately another 740 feet west of Fallon Avenue to an urban section with curb and gutter and storm sewer improvements. With the alternate, Fallon Avenue would be reconstructed approximately 450 feet to the south to an urban section. Chelsea Road would be constructed with two through lanes and a center left turn lane, 44 feet wide within the existingright-of--way/easement. No additional right-of--way or easement is anticipated for realigning Fallon Avenue, as the right-of--way was secured with the plat • for the Fallon Office Complex. aio~,.~~,~a,~mq,uo,~.,.ors,~r~.~,ory~.~,Frx~owucxrruc~r~xexK~~..muo~~ 43 . Council Agenda: 1/22/07 Storm sewer would extend within Chelsea Road to the pond at the City's reservoir site _ west of Fallon Avenue. Storm sewer stubs will be provided to accommodate drainage from adjacent properties to the north as development occurs. The pond would need to be expanded within the City's site and within the existing low area owned by WSI Industries to accommodate the future drainage azea. Expanding the pond may impact future expansion needs at the City's site if it is used for a future water treatment plant and/or. public works facility. An option could be to purchase the landlocked property north of the City's site along the freeway, which is currently being utilized for freeway signs. In addition, the pond would not necessarily need to be built. at this time, but would be needed as properties develop along the north side of Chelsea Road. An easement for the pond expansion is needed from WSI Industries if an alternate adjacent ponding azea cannot be utilized. It is anticipated that adjustments to the existing watermain and sanitary sewer systems would need to be made with the storm sewer construction. If the alternate intersection alignment is constructed at Fallon Avenue, it is proposed to extend the 36-inch trunk sanitary sewer south along Fallon Avenue just past the construction limits for future ' , extension. An 8-foot bituminous or concrete pathway is proposed to extend along the . north side of Chelsea Road from where it was extended with the interchange project. City staff has discussed utilizing a concrete pathway for ease of maintenance and improved aesthetics. However, only the bituminous pathway cost is included in the project costs. Street lighting costs along both sides of the roadways will also be included in the feasibility report. Landscaping improvements aze not included with the project costs. __ The feasibility report does-not include any boulevazd tree planting. In the past,-the . Council has preferred to install trees as the property develops for commercial and industrial areas. If the Council would prefer to include trees, we can modify the plans to include a tree planting program. The estimated project cost. totals $2,813,10.0: for the base project, not including he ;<. intersection realignment. The intersection realignment is estimated at $91.9,300. The. total estimated project cost with the intersection realignment is $3,732,400. ,These costs include a 10% contingency and 28% indirect costs. The cost does not include.the cost for the pond easement if needed from WSI Industries, which is estimated at $30,000. The project is proposed to be funded through special assessments to the adjacent benefiting properties, City funds, and assessment agreements with the developers of the Monticello Industrial Pazk. The assessment agreement with the Monticello Industrial Pazk includes assessments for Chelsea Road, as well as the interchange project, and also included land that was donated for storm water ponds. The value of that land should be considered when reviewing the total project costs. City funding would consist of the street reconstruction costs above the standazd non-residential street reconstruction rate, general utility adjustments including extension of the trunk sanitary sewer along Fallon Avenue, storm sewer upsizing costs, and pond expansion. A summary of the proposed project funding is shown on the following page: . 44 C:IDveiasnir and&ttlr~gsldaxrtgronLgrrlloce!

The remaining street costs would be City funded. Corner lots at Fallon Avenue would be assessed 100% of the frontage along Chelsea Road (short side) and 50% of the frontage along Fallon Avenue (long side) where there is an access. .Storm: Storm sewer is proposed to be assessed to each property based on the percentage of contributing drainage area directed- to the storm sewer system. City funds would be utilized for costs associated with oversizing of the storm sewer. system for the outlet pipe from the pond at the southeast corner of Chelsea Road and Fallon Avenue as well as for the pond construction west of Fallon Avenue and the outlet costs for this pond. The storm sewer assessment rate is estimated at $12,500 per acre of contributing drainage area. c.~~a.~m,~~.~w,~.itsm~,u~~,~.o,,r,~~,~.f~o~xtucNmw.cr~t~Qae~~.o.,_ouzoz~ 45 Council Agenda: 1/22/07 Pathway: The pathway along the north side of Chelsea Road is proposed to be assessed _ at 100% of the cost to properties along both the north and. south sides of Chelsea Road on a front foot basis. The estimated pathway assessment rate is $15 per front foot for bituminous and $24 per front foot for concrete, which would result in a total project cost • increase of $57,000 for the base project and $70,000 for the base and alternate project if an 8-foot-wide concrete walk is used. The Council should consider contributing to the pathway costs similar to the sidewalk policy of a 75%/25% City split where regional benefits are considered. Street Lighting: Street lighting is proposed to be installed along the north and south sides of Chelsea Road and assessed at 100% of the cost to properties along both sides of Chelsea Road on a front foot basis. The estimated street lighting assessment rate is $20 per front foot. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. Accept the feasibility report and order the public hearing for February 12, 2007. 2. Do not accept the feasibility report. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: It is the recommendation of the City Administrator to select Alternative No. 1. As noted above, the agreement with the Monticello Industrial Park, Inc. stipulates that construction of these improvements commence no later than the start of the 2007 construction season. Designated as collector road/frontage-type road within the City, Chelsea Road was • planned to be upgraded to an urban section to meet the needs for growth within the City. Is it recommended to construct the alternate Fallon Avenue intersection realignment. at this time to minimize disturbances with future improvements. Pathway and street lighting improvements along Chelsea Road could be beneficial for access to City amenities and pedestrian safety. Based on discussions with affected property owners and City staff, the Council should consider the following questions prior to the public hearing: 1. Is a pathway (bituminous or concrete) needed at this time? If so, should the Council contribute funds to it? 2. Is street lighting needed at this time? If so, should the Council contribute funds to it? 3. Is it beneficial to construct the alternate Fallon Avenue intersection realignment at this time to minimize disturbances with future improvements? 4. Would the City deed or sell the excess Fallon Avenue right-of--way to the adjacent property owner? 5. How will concerns regarding commercial zoning for the 33-acre parcel on the south side of Chelsea Road be addressed? 46 C.~IQorwrntr ad Sstp6igsWaxngraaNgerlLorn(~1~SITe~omry GUernet FUcs10LR3LIGNRN17r/aeaRdAstamFear-012707dae Council Agenda: 1/22/07 6.

As you will see below, property owners questioned the need for ' upgrading the road to an urban section with curb and gutter and storm sewer. We explained that the street was always planned to be an urban street with curb and gutter and storm sewer; however, these improvements were delayed by the developer due to lack of funds. The proposed storm sewer system is needed to accommodate full development of the properties along Chelsea Road as the existing ditch system will not accommodate it. Property owners also questioned the need for street lighting and a pathway. We explained that street lighting is proposed for safety. Pathways along major roads keep pedestrians off the roadways and allow for access to City amenities. Alan Wentland. WCG Building Partners (former Clow site). 218 Chelsea Road: • Interested in excess Fallon Avenue right-of--way created with intersection realignment for additional pazking. (We indicated that the Council could consider deeding this property to him or sell it for a minimal square footage price.) • Okay with one southern-most access along Fallon Avenue. Currently has two accesses from Fallon Avenue but prefers one access to accommodate truck turning movements. • In favor of project and okay with assessment amount. If he pays up front, can assessment be reduced by construction interest, which is typically 8% of the 28% indirect? (The Council may consider this.) • Questioned sewer and water disruption during construction. (We-will look at this with final design; temporary water service would be provided and sewage pumped out if needed.) t Mike Pudil. WSI Industries, Inc., 213 Chelsea Road: • In favor of road being reconstructed but not with curb and gutter. • Does not want to be assessed because of increases in his costs and does not see value of improvements to his property. (Typically, there is an aesthetic value to the proposed improvements.) • Not keen on giving pond easement to City, but would if compensated. • Questioned need for curb and gutter, storm sewer, pathway, and street lighting. His employees would not utilize the pathway. • Questioned speed Limit. change along Chelsea Road east and west of Fallon Avenue. He thinks it's a speed trap. (The 4S mph speed limit along Chelsea Road east of Fallon Avenue is the statutory limit based on the amount of existing development. The roadway does not qualify as an "urban district, "which requires buildings to be spaced a maximum 100 feet apart and would then allow the City to set the speed limit. As development continues, the speed limit can be evaluated for a reduction. Since there is more development west of Fallon Avenue, the speed limit is lower - 30mph.) Marv Barrier, Suburban Manufacturing, Inc., 301 Chelsea Road: • Has no issue with street reconstruction with curb and gutter and storm sewer but does not see benefit to their property. The property drains fine as is. • Concern with kids in the industrial park, vandalism, theft, etc. if pathway is constructed. Also concerned that pathway will end near their property where pedestrians will have to turn azound. 48 C: tDbcmnena and Seuingsldaan.grossinger~Local Seningrl tanpvrary Intoner FftalOLS31Meeffirg,Semanwy.dot • Street lighting is a benefit to retail businesses only; however, assessment is minimal. • Not in favor of potential retail zone along south side if Chelsea Road. ~ i • Developer of proposed retail site should beaz entire assessment. Doug Harmon and Patty Haibv. Twin Citv Die Castings, 520 Chelsea Road: • Concern with truck traffic loads and access during construction. (A construction staging plan will be developed during final design to address access and detour routes.) • .Questioned if assessment rates are the same for all properties. (This is the case based on the City s assessment policy.) • Concerned that if they expand their building to the south, adjacent potential commercial sites and/or Ciry will have issues. (Expansion would be governed by City zoning ordinances.) • Understand street and storm sewer improvements are needed and aze in favor of project. • In favor of pathway and lighting; however, concerned it will only benefit future development. Bill Taaper, Generaux Fine Wood Products, 212 Chelsea Road: • Feels project is needed in 5 years and is not in favor of curb and gutter. • Questioned need for street lighting if speed limit is 30mph. • Discussed drainage from property to street. (Storm sewer assessment has been adjusted to include actual drainage to the street, does not include drainage to his private system on site.) • Don and Terry Tomann,lJMC, Inc.. 500 Chelsea Road: • Concerned that the Monticello Industrial Pazk property south of Chelsea Road would be rezoned commerciaUretail. Does not think it is good long-term planning by the City. Assumed property would stay industrial and if rezoned to commercial, would affect their long-term expansion plans. Would set a precedent if rezoned commercial, similar to outside storage issue. Suggested the site be a training facility with partnership from existing businesses and the City, driven by the need for more workers along with new businesses in a campus setting. (An application would need to be made by the developer to rezone the property, in which a separate public hearing would be held to obtain comments. Planning Commission and Council approval would be needed.) • In favor of curb and gutter, pathway, and street lighting only if it supports businesses/the lazger community and for the right businesses planned based on zoning rather than only benefiting one big box establishment. • Questioned storm sewer assessment. (Assessment is based on minimal drainage along the front of the property. Parking areas and building drain to the pond near the school.) Dean Olson and Dick Hansen, Rowser (leases to Kaltec of MN, Incl. 307 Chelsea Road: • Looking at selling the building. • Questioned potential retail site on south side of Chelsea Road. Keep it on the north side. Would isolate their business if surrounded by retail. • Okay with assessments. • 44 C:IDbrvmmu acrd S~tdrtgsl dowe~grouirtgerlLotal SertirtgslTemportrry Internet FiletIOLK3LSfeeHngSummary.Qoe Matt Froelich.

Council City of Monticello 505 Walnut Street Suite 1 Monticello, MN 55362-8831 RE: Chelsea Road Feasibility Report: Chelsea Road Reconstruction, Fallon Avenue Intersection Re-Alignment Alternate Via Facsimile Honorable Mayor and City Council Members: On behalf of Monticello Industrial Park, Inc., we respectfully request that you approve the Chelsea Road Feasibility Report that deals with Chelsea Road Reconstruction-Street and Storm Sewer improvements, as well as the Fallon ' Avenue Intersection Re-Alignment Altemate. By doing the proposed Fallon Avenue Intersection improvements at the same time as the Chelsea Road reconstruction, the traffic disturbance would result in a single event. Additionally, the economics will most likely be more favorable and eliminate redundancy. in roadway reconstruction costs. By combining these two needed improvements,. future development of the area served by them will be provided specific definition, thus removing an important variable from their decision process.

PAUL -Gov. Tim Pawlenty's plan to borrow $1.7 b~7lion for state roads and bridges world speedup p~aas to widen Interstate Highway 94 to six lanes between Rogers and Clearwater. Pawlenty's transportation budget groposal would move construction on the $112 mil- lion Interstate 94 widening project up fi~om 2024 to 2009, said Tim Povich, a tranaporta- englaeer for the Mumesol~. artmeat of Transportation in St. Ciond The project would combine repaving of e~usting lanes with construction of an additional lane in each direction, using the erasting right of way in the median, Povich said °Without a significant in- crease in transportation fund- ing, preservation becomes a more and more critical need," he said. "If we're going to do a major pavement preservation project oa I-94, we decided now would be a good time to addthatthirdlane.' Pawlenty's proposal has no funding for a proposed Missis- ~PPi River erossingto connect I-94 and U.S. Highway 10.
