SUBJECT: November 20, 2018 - Work Session
Work Session 6:00 PM
Brockton Lane Project Discussion
Public Works Director Steve Scherer and Planning Director Dusty Finke will present an update
on the Brockton Lane project. The background memo is included with the packet.
Celebration Day Funding Discussion
Finance Director Erin Barnhart will provide an update on funding for Celebration Day in 2019.
At the October 16, 2018 City Council meeting the City Council received an update from two
Celebration Day Board Members. The board members provided concerns about funding the
event and the difficulty with fundraising. The City Council directed staff to bring the issue
forward at the November 20th Work Session for discussion on options.
The 2019 preliminary budget was set on September 4, 2018. The preliminary budget cannot be
increased once it is set in September. The 2019 preliminary budget allocated $4,000 for
Celebration Day based on an earlier discussion by the City Council to provide the basic items for
the event and to continue to fundraise for the fireworks (approximately $5,000 per year for
fireworks).
Staff discussed viable options to come up with $6,000 in additional funds for 2019 Celebration
Day. Medina will receive a one-time fee of $65,000 for conduit bond funding. Staff
recommends that $6,000 of this fee go to pay the remainder of the 2019 Celebration Day
expense. The City Council could then allocate the remaining $6,000 per year starting with the
2020 City Budget.
Staff recommends the remaining $59,000 from the fee be allocated to the Park Replacement fund
instead of the $30,000 that was originally recommended from the City’s general reserves.
Staff is requesting discussion and direction from the City Council.
MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council, through City Administrator Scott Johnson
FROM: Steve Scherer, Public Works Director
DATE: November 14, 2018
MEETING: November 20, 2018
SUBJECT: Brockton Lane North Street Improvement Project
BACKGROUND:
Reconstruction of Brockton Lane between Medina Road and Hamel Road, a border street
between Plymouth and Medina, is proposed to be constructed in 2019. This project was
accelerated based on feedback from both city councils. This reconstruction project will upgrade
and urbanize this segment of roadway, and it will also include the necessary pedestrian
accommodations. In September the council entered into a joint powers agreement through the
City of Plymouth for engineering services with Bolton & Menk. We were directed to move
forward with the feasibility report.
CURRENTLY
Staff has been working with Bolton & Menk on preliminary plans for the project and moving
towards the final design stage. Staff wanted to update the council on our progress and request
formal authorization for the feasibility report if the City is going to assess any of the costs of the
project to property owners. Staff and Bolton & Menk will be present at the meeting to give a
presentation on the project. The project team is planning to hold an open house on Wednesday,
December 5 for Medina and Plymouth residents. The attached invitation/project newsletter has
been sent out to residents in the area.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The Brockton Lane Reconstruction costs have been updated in the 2019 CIP. The original rough
cost estimate for the complete project is $2.2 million.
• The street portion is expected to be split at 50% with the City of Plymouth. Lennar is
responsible for the cost of constructing turn lanes and repaving adjacent to the Enclave at
Brockton, which will contribute towards Medina’s share of the cost.
• Sewer reconstruction is estimated at $100,000. According to the City’s assessment
policy, 50% of this cost would be assessed to the users on the north end.
• Water is estimated at $130,000. This project would upgrade the watermain from 8-
inches to 12-inches and is an expansion of the trunk main to the City’s wellfield in
Hamel Legion Park to provide improved system supply. Staff is recommending that
costs not be assessed to adjacent owners for that reason.
• The trail is up for some negotiations where we are doubling up trails from Basswood
north. I would suggest we split the portion to the south of Basswood to Medina Rd at
50% and Plymouth pays 100% north of Basswood. It is important to note that Plymouth
will be responsible to plow, maintain and rehabilitate this trail in the future, which is a
great benefit for Medina.
This project has been included in the 2019 CIP. More accurate numbers will be available when
the feasibility report is complete. Funding would be considered from a combination of utility

funds, MSA, park dedication, bonding, possible assessments, and the road fund along with road
improvement contributions from Lennar.
COUNCIL ACTION
Staff recommends that the Council adopt the resolution ordering the feasibility report for the
Brockton Lane North Street Improvement Project on the consent agenda at the regular council
meeting.

Wednesday, December 5, 2018
Project Overview
The City of Medina and the City of Plymouth are working together to make improvements
to Brockton Lane from Medina Road to Hamel Road. This project will include full
reconstruction of the street and converting it from a rural to an urban design to
accommodate recent growth, as well as the addition of a trail, turn lanes, utility, and
drainage improvements. Construction is scheduled to occur during the summer of 2019.
Upcoming Open House
Interested residents and business representatives are encouraged to attend a public open
house on Wednesday, December 5. The Open House will be held at the Hamel Community
Building (3200 Mill Dr) from 4:30-6:30 p.m. This will be an opportunity for the public to
learn more about the proposed project, what to expect, and offer feedback.
Schedule
The project team is currently completing the preliminary design phase of the project. The
team will then move into the final design phase following the open house in December,
which will last throughout this winter. Bidding is anticipated to take place in March, and
construction is expected to begin in May. Construction is expected to conclude in October
2019.
Traffic Impacts
Construction will be completed in two stages— Medina Road to 44th Ave/Basswood Rd,
and 44th Ave/Basswood Rd, to Hamel Road. Stages will be closed to traffic when they are
being constructed, but access will be allowed to residents along the project area.
