BACKGROUND On July 28, 2003, the City Council adopted a resolution supporting the accelerated funding of new 212. On November 10, 2003, the City Council approved a consultant contract with Kimley-Horn and Assoc. for municipal consent services on the project. DISCUSSION Municipal Consent is a process that Mn/DOT must follow when a state construction project is proposed through a local municipality with local cost participation. The process is outlined in Minnesota Statute 161.162 to 161.167. The process begins when Mn/DOT submits a final plan layout to the local municipality. The City received Mn/DOT's plan layout for TH 212 on December 1,2003. According to state law, the City must now call a public hearing within 15 days of the submittal date. The actual public hearing; however, does not have to be held until 60 days after the submittal date. For this reason, staff is proposing to hold the public hearing on January 26, 2004. This will give staff and our consultant, Kimley-Horn, sufficient time to review the plans and identify any issues/concerns. c: Jon Horn, Kimley-Horn g:\eng\th 312~municipal consent\call ph.doc The City ol Chanhassen · A growing community with clean lakes qualoy schools, a charming [Jo¢,,,lltOW!/thriqF, g businesses w ~din© trals and beautiful parks A [jr~ at pax: t;, ',,~ ,,,,,,r'rk' and [,ay
