A great place to live, work, and play FROM: DATE: SUBJ: Approve Memorandum of Understanding for TH 212 Decorative Railing Maintenance - Project No. 03-09 REOUESTED ACTION Approve Memorandum of Understanding for TH 212 Decorative Railing Maintenance. BACKGROUND In June, 1997, an architectural and visual quality design recommendation forTH 212 was completed that included metal railings on bridges for visual enhancement safety reasons. The railings are installed adjacent to trails. The railings, however, are not covered under MnDOT's maintenance policy since they are an enhancement for the corridor. The maintenance and replacement responsibility is therefore the local responsibility and, as such, should be considered part of the trail system. The maintenance of the railings is anticipated to be minimal. The railings will be galvanized metal and will be painted. The painting typically lasts between 15-20 years and with proper maintenance, the railings will last as long as the bridges, 50 years. At this time, staff recommends approving the Memorandum of Understanding with MnDOT.
