BACKGROUND On July 28, 2003, the City Council adopted a resolution supporting the accelerated funding of new TH 212. On December 8, 2003, the City Council called a public hearing to be held January 26, 2004 on the project. On January 26, 2004, the City Council held a public hearing to receive comments from the community on the project. DISCUSSION The proposed TH 212 project is an advanced state aid project which will utilize the design build process. Under the design build process, plans are only 30% complete at the time of municipal consent. The plans are required to show layouts, alignments and access points. They also address environmental issues through the ElS review and noise mitigation, The municipal consent process is designed for the review of these issues. Other items such as landscaping, utilities, esthetics will be addressed at the time of final design and subsequent projects. The City will play a role in determining the final design. As required by State Statute, the City held a public hearing on January 26, 2004 for the municipal consent of new TH 212. At the public hearing, several residents voiced concerns about aspects of the proposed project. These concerns included traffic noise, traffic routing, property access, the 101 gap project, and environmental impacts. Staff has responded to all residents in writing who spoke at the public hearing. All the issues have been addressed by MnDOT or will be incorporate in the final design of the project. Some of these issues cannot be fully addressed at this time due to the constraints of the design build process.

Other issues have been addressed by MnDOT or will be worked on in conjunction with the final design. These include landscaping, noise mitigation, temporary traffic control and trail alignments. Staff will continue to work with MnDOT on remaining issues. LAYOUT REVIEW TH 101 GAP Project from Lake Drive to W 86tn Street Staff has been working with the MnDOT and the County to try to advance this project to coincide with the TH 212 project. The project, as proposed, would be a turnback project for State to Carver County jurisdiction. The City would receive the turnback of old 101 from Lake Susan Drive north to a new cul-de-sac at the last house south by Riley Creek. To date, no agency has programmed funds for this project. The anticipated start date for construction is 2006. Several funding scenarios were reviewed. The most promising funding mechanism is advancing county turnback funds for this project. The proposed City portion of the project is shown on the attached sheet. Most of the City share is being allocated to construction of trails and the trial underpass. This is only a rough estimate since the design is still preliminary, but it gives a sense of how much funds are being proposed from each agency and what items each agency could be ask to contribute to. Also, attached to this background is a letter from MnDOT stating their intent to build this project to coincide with the TH 212 project. A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) will be drafted between the City, MnDOT and the County once most of the funding, design and turnback issues have been resolved. SW Metro Park-n-Ride In conjunction with the TH 212 project, MnDOT has allocated approximately 10 acres of land at the southwest quadrant of TH 212 and TH 101 for a park-and-ride facility. Of the 10 acres of land, three acres are being proposed to be used for the park-n-ride. The other seven acres of land is being proposed from other uses, mostly residential. This project is separate from the TH 212 municipal consent approval process. Council will have opportunities to review the proposed park-n-ride project prior to considering approval. Lake Susan Drive Several residents in the Lake Susan Drive area have raised concerns about potential cut through traffic in conjunction with the TH 212 project. The current TH 212 design has the exit ramp of TH 101 on westbound TH 212 lining up with Lake Susan Drive. Lake Susan Drive currently connects from TH 101 to Lyman Boulevard. The new intersection of TH 101 and Lake Susan Drive will be a signalized intersection with turn lanes off the exit ramp from TH 212. It is anticipated any traffic wanting to access onto Lyman Boulevard south of TH 212 would exit off of Powers Boulevard. Powers Boulevard is less then one mile from the TH 101 exit. Because of the short proximity to TH 101, the speed of which drivers will be able to access Powers Boulevard and Lyman Boulevard off of TH 212 verses the less safe and slower route to go through Lake Susan Drive, it is anticipate that cut-through traffic will be minimal. Staff took traffic counts on Lake Susan Drive in 2002 and will take traffic counts again this summer to quantify the amount of traffic currently using the road. We will continue to monitor the traffic levels during and after construction of TH 212. If a traffic problem is identified, the City will then take the appropriate measures to correct the problem. We would request MnDOT play a role in addressing any future traffic issues. Sound Mitigation One of the biggest concerns staff has heard l¥om residents on the TH 212 project is the potential noise impacts that could be generated from traffic. Staff has and will continue to work with MnDOT to construct sound mitigation structures where ever possible in the construction con'idor. The current design meets all federal guidelines for sound abatement. FUNDING CITY PARTICIPATION MnDOT's cost estimate for City participation on the project is still approximately $2.5 million. These costs were identified at the February 23, 2004 council worksession. Currently, funding for this work is being proposed from assessments, municipal state aid and park dedication funds. It should be noted that these costs do not include any proposed City water or sanitary sewer improvements. These utility costs will be identified with the upcoming feasibility study for the 2005 MUSA area. Attachments: 1. Draft Municipal Consent Resolution 2.

Mn/DOT acknowledges that all of the details are not final at this time, however, we would like to outline how we intend to proceed 'forward. As was discussed at the meeting, Mn/DOT is proposing to transfer jurisdiction of proposed TH 101 to Carver County from TH 5 and CSAH 18 (Lyman Blvd.) and in-place TH 101 to the city of Chanhassen in the same vici~fity prior to completion of the new TH 212. The realigned highway 101 would be constructed to County State Aid Highway (CSAH) standards m~d Mn/DOT would apply the cost savings of making this change in the TH212 Design/Build project towards the TH 101 project. The attached sheet summarizes items for the TH 101 gap improvement project for both existing and proposed highway 101, along with thc proposed jurisdictional responsibility. Please note that items and costs listed are preliminary at this time and updates will made as better information becomes available. At this time Mn/DOT has resources working on project development activities for tiffs project and is proceeding with the timing for the project to be coordinated with the new TH 212 construction, subject to right of way and environmental process constraints. Mn/DOT looks forward to a continued partnership with the City mhd Carver County in working to finance m~d construct this project.
