SUBJECT: 2009-2013 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM AND ADDENDUM NO. i
On October 28, 2008, the City Council considered and discussed the 2009-2013 CIP, The City
Council directed staff to re-evaluate the CIP and suggest modifications to address current economic
trends and to reduce the financial impacts in 2009. A study session has been scheduled for December
9, 2008, to further discuss the CIP and any potentia] changes.
Based on City Council direction, staff suggests the following changes to the CIP should be considered
for inclusion in an addendum to the CIP:
Project 09 -PM -004, Re -carpet, Repaint City Hall — staff suggests splitting this project into two
years (2009 and 2010) to reduce the financial impacts in 2009.
Project 08 -PK -005, Hilde Performance Center — staff suggests delaying this project until 2010
as discussed by the City Council.
Project 09 -PK -006, West Medicine Lake Park Building — staff suggests delaying this project
until 2012 as discussed by the City Council.
Project 09 -PK -012, Sun Shadc for Parkers Lake Stage -- staff` suggests eliminating this project
due to funding and constructability issues.
Project 08 -ST -006, Rail Crossing Safety Improvements at Zachary Lane — staff suggests
delaying this project to 2013 due to federal funding availability.
Project 08 -ST -009, 36'1' Avenue Reconstruction — staff suggests delaying $400,000 of the
proposed streetscapes improvements on 36°i Avenue east of Vicksburg Lane to 2010 to reduce
the financial impacts in 2009. The City Council may wish to reconsider the streetscape funding
at a future date,
Project 09-S`1`-004, Mill and Overlay Project — staff suggests delaying the 36`x' Avenue mill and
overlay frons Zachary Lane to Trunk Highway 169 to 2011 and the Lancaster Lane mill and
overlay from 36`' Avenue to County Road 9 to 2010 to reduce the financial impacts in 2009.
Approve 2009-2013 Capital Improvement Program and
Addendum No. I

Delaying the 36"' Avenue mill and overlay will also reduce the financial impacts to the
Robbinsdale School District in 2009.
Project 10 -ST -003, Rail Crossing Safety Improvements at Vicksburg Lane staff suggests
delaying this project to 2013 due to federal funding availability.
Project 09 -VE -006, Pickup Truck Grass Rig — staff suggests delaying the replacement of this
vehicle until 2010 to reduce the financial impact in 2009.
Project 09 -VE -NEW 1, 3/4 ton 4a4 Pickup — staff suggests delaying this near vehicle until 2010
to reduce the financial impact in 2009.
Project 06 -WR -003, Hedberg Aggregate / Nathan Lane Drainage Site — staff suggests delaying
this project until 2010 due to perinitting issues and to reduce the financial impact in 2009.
Project 07 -WR -001, Stream Bank Repairs: Plymouth Creek staff suggests delaying the start
of this project until 2010 due to permitting issued and to reduce the financial impact in 2009.
If the City Council accepts the suggested changes, the 2009 funding level would be reduced by
5,325,000 from the CIP presented on October 28, 2008. This represents a 13% expenditure reduction
in 2009. Delaying these projects is not expected to cause unforeseen cost increases other than typical
inflationary increases.
