City Council Report 2023-116
To: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
Mike Mornson, City Manager
From: Kurt Howard, Planner & Eric Klingbeil, City Engineer
Date: November 14, 2023
Subject: Resolutions Supporting Grant Funding Applications for the Reconstruction
of 17th Avenue
_____________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDED ACTION
MOTION TO Adopt Resolution 2023-041, supporting the pursuit of 2023 Local Road
Improvement Program funding, and Resolution 2023-044, supporting the pursuit of
2023 Regional Solicitation funding for the 17th Avenue Improvements project.
OVERVIEW
The segment of 17th Avenue between Excelsior Boulevard to Highway 7 is scheduled to
be reconstructed in the near future. While reconstruction of 17th Avenue is not included
in the 2023-2027 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), it is currently included in the overall
street reconstruction program. Tentative plans are for a 2029 road project, however,
that date could move depending on the availability of outside funding.
This segment of 17th Avenue is significant in Hopkins’ multimodal network for several
reasons, including its potential to establish a connection between the Lake Minnetonka
LRT Regional Trail and the cycle track along the new extension of 17th Avenue
between Excelsior Boulevard and the Shady Oak Station. Concepts for incorporating a
separated bikeway into the reconstruction plans for 17th Avenue were developed in
2018 through a feasibility study funded by Hennepin County Community Works.
At its meeting on July 18, the City Council directed staff to conduct robust community
engagement efforts for the purposes of informing and further developing the preliminary
design of the reconstructed 17th Avenue, and to prepare the City to submit competitive
applications for external sources of funding. With the engagement efforts now
completed for this phase of project development, the purpose of this item is to share a
summary of engagement results, recommend a proposed preliminary design, and
request resolutions supporting the preparation and submittal of funding applications.

ENGAGEMENT SUMMARY
To further inform the preliminary design and prepare the City to submit competitive
applications for external sources of funding, Council directed staff to conduct significant
community engagement to solicit feedback on three alternatives recommended by the
feasibility study. These efforts began in early August and concluded in late October,
and included mailings, posters, signage, sidewalk decals, social media, in-person pop-
up events, one-on-one meetings with property owners, an open house, a community
demonstration event, and an interactive website to collect comments and track
responses.
A complete summary of the engagement results is attached. A total of 602 comments
were received from the public via the interactive comment map, at in-person pop-up
events, and through direct communications with project staff. Overall, 87% of
responses indicated support for the addition of bicycle facilities on 17th Avenue. Among
the comments that specifically expressed support or opposition for the project concepts
or project in general, the results were as follows:
Those voicing opposition to inclusion of a bicycle facility in the reconstruction of 17th
Avenue cited concerns about impacts to property values, trees, yards, ease of backing
out of driveways, and emergency vehicle and school bus traffic.
RECOMMENDED CONCEPT
Based on the community input received, an analysis of the scoring criteria for the grant
programs, and consideration of options that would be available if the pursuit of external
funding sources is successful, staff is recommending that funding applications include
the multi-use trail concept. Although the cycle track concept received a greater number
of supportive comments compared to the multi-use trail concept, the multi-use trail
concept offers flexibility in a couple of key and beneficial ways. First, the footprint of the
multi-use trail concept has potential to be modified or reduced during final design in
ways that could address or mitigate concerns voiced about impacts to adjacent trees,
yards, and landscaping. Secondly, if an application including the multi-use trail is
selected for funding, the terms of the grant agreement would enable the project to be
modified to include the cycle track concept prior to initiating final design. However, if a
funding application including the cycle track concept is selected for funding, the terms
of the grant agreement would make it much more difficult to change from the cycle track
concept to the multi-use trail concept.
Given the amount time between now and when the final design process would be
initiated, as well as the design considerations that have yet to be brought to a final level
of detail, staff recommends submitting funding applications that include the multi-use
trail option with the understanding that the potential for a cycle track option will continue
to be evaluated.
PROJECT COSTS AND FUNDING
The current estimated project cost for the multi-use trail concept is $8.6 million, this
includes construction, indirect costs, and contingencies. The scope includes
reconstruction of 17th Avenue, replacement of water main and sanitary sewer systems,
improvements to the storm sewer system, construction of a multi-use trail, street
lighting, landscaping, and all other appurtenances. Staff has developed a funding plan
for the project which involves applying for grants, using State Aid funding, utility funds,
and special assessments. The costs and funding sources are summarized in the tables
below.
Project Cost Table
Category Cost
Street $2,570,000
Bicycle Facility $2,450,000
Utility and Stormwater $1,740,000
Indirect Costs $1,840,000
Total Project Cost $8,600,000
Project Funding Table
Category Proposed Funding
Met Council Regional Solicitation Grant $2,450,000
MnDOT LRIP Grant $1,500,000
City Utility Funds $1,740,000
City of Hopkins MSA $2,190,000
Special Assessments $ 720,000
Total Funding $8,600,000
This funding plan is preliminary and currently assumes the City is successful in securing
all grants for which we are applying. Project staff will continue to work with the Finance
Director as the project progresses as depending on the grant awards, the funding plan
may change. The project team will also continue to seek other sources of outside
funding and partnerships with other agencies that could result in cost reductions for
Hopkins.
FUTURE ACTION
If there is agreement on the approach of applying for external sources of funding, the
next steps would proceed as follows:
• December:
o Prepare and submit Local Road Improvement Program and Regional
Solicitation grant applications.
• Summer 2024:
o Receive results of grant applications and report back to the City Council.
o Depending on success in securing grant funding, staff will recommend a
project schedule and incorporate into the City’s CIP

COMMENTS
RECEIVED602The City of Hopkins conducted public engagement for the 17th Avenue Improvements project from
Aug. 8 - Oct. 20, 2023. The purpose was to gather feedback on the three design concepts for the
corridor: a separated two-way cycle track, a multi-use trail and on-street bike lanes. The following is
a summary of the engagement strategies employed and feedback themes heard during this phase.

Methodology and Results
During this phase of the project, we collected 602 comments from the public via the interactive
comment map, at in-person pop-up events and through direct communications with project staff. To
identify the level of support for the project and specific design concepts, our team cleaned the data
collected. During this analysis, duplicate comments from an individual were removed unless the
comment provided a new opinion or perspective. Additionally, we removed any comments that did not
specifically show support or opposition for the project concepts or project in general. Out of the 602
comments received, 174 fit this criterion; the following chart shows the summary of these comments.
