Brown’s Creek Watershed District Capital Projects

Diversion Tributaries (benefits both the wetlands surrounding the tributaries, McKusick Lake in lower flows, & Brown’s Creek in high flows)

o Channel incision, headcuts, and subsequent floodplain abandonment were observed during spring 2019 BCWD drone flight and ground survey along all three diversion area tributaries including the Long Lake Tributary, South Central Tributary, and the Zephyr Tributary between the Diversion Structure and Boutwell Road. Grade control structures comprised of fieldstone boulders be installed in 2020 in strategic locations to restore floodplain connectivity and stabilize the channels.

Brown’s Creek Restoration: o Implement natural resource management plan in Brown’s Creek Conservation Area on

110th Street in Grant through a collaborative grant with Great River Greening that will cover $56,200 during 2019-20 for restoration activities. This will help restore up to 1,400 linear feet of Brown’s Creek and surrounding 13 acres.

o Implement riparian vegetation restoration along 2,400 linear feet of Brown’s Creek in partnership with the Millbrook Home Owners Association with 90% of the costs covered with the $78,760 BWSR watershed based funding pilot grant in 2019-2020.

o A Clean Water Fund grant in the amount of $360,100 was received to partner with Oak Glen Golf Course to reuse surface water from a warm, nutrient laden wetland before out letting into Brown’s Creek, reducing thermal loading and nutrient loading by approximately 100 lbs of Phosphorus to both Brown’s Creek and the St. Croix River. The project will be designed in 2020 and constructed by 2021.

Program Priorities

Rules/Permitting: BCWD updated its rules in Feb 2018, which changed the applicability of the stormwater rules to encompass more redevelopment projects. BCWD held a stakeholder meeting in December 2018 and received valuable feedback on the rules and permitting process, specifically noting concern with the requirement of redevelopment projects meeting pre-settlement volume and rate control. Since that meeting, the BCWD has continued efforts in 2019 to examine its stormwater rules and work directly with member communities of Stillwater and Oak Park Heights, as well as adjacent watershed districts (VBWD and CMSCWD)/watershed management organizations (MSCWMO) to create consistency, clarity and efficiency in the rules and permitting process. The BCWD Board evaluated the minimal impact design standards (MIDS) and determined that MIDS provides comparable water resource benefits for volume control and water quality benefits in the diversion drainage area, specifically because of the presence of the high vulnerability area of the drinking water supply management area (DWSMA) and existing regional stormwater management agreements in this area of Oak Park Heights and Stillwater. This area coincides with the most densely developed/commercial development areas of the two communities. The BCWD Board is working to make changes to the rules and permitting process by the end of 2019/early 2020.

Education: Shared East Metro Water Resources Education Program, work with residents to implement the best management practices cost-share program, and work with the area high school students to monitor the macroinvertebrates in Brown’s Creek. Citizen Advisory Committee is very active and will continue a summer Open Yard Series and a fall community nature event. Continue communication and education of residents through annual newsletter, improved information on the bcwd.org website and Facebook sites.

Page 68: BOARD AGENDA October 15, 2019 - 9:00 AM

Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Maintenance: The BCWD has a growing list of CIPs requiring long-term maintenance. A standard operating procedure and maintenance manual was created in 2019 for each existing BCWD CIP, as well as a maintenance tracking system. Annual inspections and maintenance activities are necessary to achieve intended water quality improvements.

Monitoring: o Baseline Monitoring of lakes and streams, weather station and thermal stations o Performance Monitoring – monitoring to determine maintenance frequency and project

success of completed capital improvement projects: iron enhanced sand filter project, underground water quality improvement project on DNR Trail, and infiltration basins at outlet of Goggin’s Lake (called Trout Habitat Preservation Project – “THPP”)

o Brown’s Creek – sediment and bacterial source tracking to determine future management strategies and potential project locations

o Groundwater elevations – annual well measurements Cooperative Efforts

See Rules/Permitting above CSAH 15/State Highway 36 Interchange Project – working with Washington County staff, MN

DOT staff, and Applewood Golf Course to develop a reuse system that will meet local stormwater regulations

BCWD was selected by the MPCA 319 grant for Small Watersheds Focus. MPCA develops a Nine Element Plan (the federal version of our Watershed Management Plan) and, beginning in 2021, the BCWD will be eligible to fund that plan with 319 funds. The general amount is estimated at $250,000 in years 1, 5, 9, and 13 for implementation.

Comfort Lake Forest Lake Watershed District Capital Projects

Introduction: The CLFLWD is in the Project Implementation phase of its long-term watershed management life cycle. During the District’s earlier years, it initially went through a planning and base-line monitoring phase, and then went into a more in-depth diagnostic monitoring and analysis phase for the purpose of initial project identification. During these prior phases, the District adjusted its levy to reflect the work required of each phase. The aim of the current Implementation Phase is to use all of the completed diagnostic data to implement cost-effective capital improvement projects using an adaptive management strategy. Given that project implementation is more costly than monitoring and diagnostic studies, the District is intending to raise its levy in 2020 to $1.4M. It is anticipated that once the majority of capital projects have been constructed over the next ~10 years, the District will enter an operations & maintenance phase, which should result in a lower ongoing levy at that time.

Regional Volume Control Facility: The District Rules allow the use of banked volume credits in cases where volume control has been maximized on site. The high level of development and permitting activity in the Comfort Lake subwatershed makes it a top candidate for a regional treatment facility. Site evaluations will be required to determine suitability for regional stormwater volume banking projects. Ultimately, a feasible volume control facility location will be identified. Identified facilities may be used as volume control banks or to provide needed volume control and water quality benefits for the District.

Bone Lake Alum Treatment Feasibility: Watershed loading to Bone Lake is being addressed through a variety of projects including targeted agricultural best management practices and wetland restorations. The carp population in Bone Lake appears to be within the recommended biomass, likely due to the operation of the inlet and outlet fish barriers. With these other sources of phosphorus loading addressed, the District will begin evaluating the feasibility of a whole-lake alum treatment.

Bone Lake Subwatershed Assessment (SWA) Implementation: Landowner coordination and project implementation will occur in 2020. Implementation of 10 targeted best management practices is estimated to reduce watershed phosphorus loads to Bone Lake by 90 lb/yr and to Moody Lake by 24 lb/yr, and reduce watershed sediment loads to Bone Lake by 8.2 tons/yr and to Moody Lake by 4.9 tons/yr. The District received a Clean Water Fund grant in the amount of $144,000 for this project.

Bone Lake Partially Drained Wetland Restorations: Landowner coordination and project implementation will occur in 2020. This project entails implementation of six wetland restorations located along the tributary identified as the single highest source of phosphorus loading to Bone Lake. These wetland restorations are estimated to reduce watershed phosphorus loads to Bone Lake by 50 lb/yr, or 9% of the total load reductions needed for Bone Lake to achieve its in-lake water quality goal. The District received a Clean Water Fund grant of $88,000 to help fund this project.

Little Comfort Lake Phosphorus Source Assessment Implementation: Project feasibility and landowner outreach will occur in 2020. Targeted potential projects include July Avenue agricultural project, Birch Lake/School Lake internal load assessments, Bone Lake outlet wetland assessment, Heath Avenue Feasibility and Implementation.

Shields Lake Stormwater Harvest and Irrigation Reuse System and Alum Treatment: The whole-lake alum treatment will occur in split phases in fall 2019 and fall 2020. Construction of the stormwater harvest and irrigation reuse system occurred in fall 2018. The alum treatment will reduce internal sediment phosphorus loading to natural background levels. The irrigation reuse system and alum treatment are expected to reduce phosphorus loads such that Shields

Page 72: BOARD AGENDA October 15, 2019 - 9:00 AM

7

Lake achieves its lake water quality goal of 60 g/L. This in turn, will reduce phosphorus loads into Forest Lake by up to 250 lb./yr., or 55% of the total phosphorus reductions needed to achieve the District’s long-term goal of 30 g/L. The District received a Clean Water Fund grant of $824,000 to help fund this project. This project implements the concept of water reuse that is referenced multiple times in the Washington County Groundwater Plan. Additionally, these combined projects will address most, if not all, of the City of Forest Lake’s TMDL financial obligation related to the Waste Load Allocation which was assigned to the City for Shields Lake. As such, this work will result in saving the City of Forest Lake more than $1 million of costs.

Forest Lake Improvement Project Targeting (Castlewood and Hayward Ave): Targeted monitoring occurred in these subwatersheds in 2018, with project identification and feasibility ongoing in 2019. Top targeted potential projects include: cattail harvesting, agricultural BMPs, and implementation of Claros phosphorus absorbing technology. CLFLWD is using its Watershed Based Funding grant for this project.

Washington Judicial Ditch 6: Targeted monitoring occurred in this Forest Lake subwatershed in 2018 and 2019 to target potential projects. Monitoring and project feasibility will continue in 2020. Potential projects include ditch restoration, wetland enhancement, and agricultural BMPs.

Comfort Lake-Little Comfort Lake H&H Model Update: This project will update the District’s original H&H model with PC SWMM, which simulates surface and subsurface flow pathways and pollutant sources and has BMP targeting tool capabilities, in the Comfort Lake Management District and a portion of the Little Comfort Lake Management District.

Sunrise River Regional Stormwater Project: This project will occur upstream of Comfort Lake. The project may include urban retrofits, wetland restoration, ponding, filtration, biofiltration, or other methods to reduce phosphorus loads.

Program Priorities Rules and Permitting: Permitting due to increased construction activity, and coordination with

local municipalities has increased steadily over the past five years and continues to climb. The CLFLWD aims to continue to keep pace with the ever-increasing development climate in the District by improving the efficiency of program management and outreach to customers. In 2019, District staff initiated a collaborative workgroup among other watershed districts. Information from these meetings will help improve program efficiency.

Monitoring Program: The District’s baseline monitoring program will continue and provide baseline information to Washington County Baseline Monitoring Network (in partnership with Washington Conservation District) as well as use volunteers to monitor lakes via the Metropolitan Council’s Citizen-Assisted (lake) Monitoring Program (CAMP). The monitoring supports the District’s “adaptive management” approach to tracking lake responses to current and future projects. In 2020 the CLFLWD will continue targeted effectiveness monitoring for several completed capital improvement projects. The objective for this monitoring is to obtain actual load reduction figures, rather than solely relying on modeling and literature estimates. The District will also continue implementation of a low-cost do-it-yourself monitoring program, working with local volunteers to gather pre- and post-project water data.

BMP Water Quality Cost-Share Program: In recent years the District has seen a high amount of interest in its “plant grant” program to fund 100% of small projects up to $500. This program will continue in 2020 along with other cost-share programs (Community, Agricultural and Municipal).

Watershed Management Plan Update: CLFLWD began the process of updating its 10-year comprehensive plan in 2019. The projected approval date is spring 2021, a few months before the plan expires in September 2021.

Grants: The District will continually research grant opportunities and make application to programs when possible in an effort to reduce the levy burden on District residents. In 2020 the District will continue to pursue grants from Washington County, LCCMR, PCA, BWSR, DNR, as well as research grant opportunities with other agencies. In 2019 the District expects to receive approximately $585,000 in grant revenue.

Education and Outreach: In 2020 the CLFLWD will continue to provide educational opportunities to the public to address water quality issues throughout the watershed and utilize the District’s Comprehensive Communication Plan to effectively communicate with local stakeholders. Educational activities planned for 2020 include:

o The publishing of educational articles and AIS informational notices in local papers o Publishing of a District-wide newsletter o Staff attendance at local lake association meetings o Continued maintenance and updates to improve the District’s website, and increase

presence/public interaction on social media o Standard project signage implementation to consistently provide information on in-the-

ground capital improvement projects throughout the District o Coordination with local teachers to plan educational events/workshops for students o Financial contribution and participation in the Chisago County Children’s Water

Festival o Provide support and capstone project ideas for participants in the Freshwater Society’s

Master Water Stewards program and the St. Croix Valley Foundation’s St. Croix Master Watershed Stewards program.

o “Hot Issues”: Educating the public about proper disposal of leaves and other organic yard

waste Educating the public about the importance of native aquatic plants Educating the public about lake shoreline stewardship

Aquatic Invasive Species Prevention and Management: Prevent the spread and manage nuisance levels of aquatic invasive species (AIS) through the following activities: o Watercraft inspections at public boat launches o Chemical, mechanical and/or biological control of species including curly-leaf

pondweed, flowering rush, and purple loosestrife. o Monitor for new infestations using AIS detection surveys, zebra mussel sampler plate

monitoring and citizen engagement. In 2019 the District worked with several other organizations to initiate a rapid response effort for zebra mussels on Bone Lake. Following a copper sulfate treatment, surveys have found no sign of zebra mussels in the lake to date.

o Manage rough fish populations using fish barriers, winter in-lake aeration, population surveys, and removal using harvesting or netting techniques

o Educate and keep the public informed of AIS activities by compiling a monthly AIS update report and giving a presentation at the District’s monthly regular board meeting throughout the summer months

Middle St. Croix Water Management Organization

Capital Projects Lily Lake Final 45 –In 2017 the MSCWMO received a grant from the BWSR’s Clean Water

Fund (CWF) to identify and design projects with community input in the Lily Lake watershed to reduce 45lbs. of total phosphorous. The project is currently underway and the final report guiding the installation of water quality practices through 2022 was completed in July 2018. Application for a 2020 CWF grant has been submitted that if awarded would allow for the implementation of the practices identified in this study.

Lake St. Croix Direct Discharge Phase II/Phase III- In 2016 the MSCWMO was awarded a Clean Water fund grant to implement phase II of the Lake St. Croix Direct Discharge Subwatershed Analysis. A Clean Water Fund grant was used to install a filtration basin on Stillwater Country Club property. Re-routed an eroding, open-channel from a 9 acre drainage area into a 10,000 cubic foot basin, treating water before directly discharging to Lake St Croix. $205,000 install cost at a load reduction of 25 lbs of TP per year. Basin installation was just completed on August 26th, 2019. Final plantings will occur fall of 2019 and spring of 2020.

Lake St. Croix Direct Discharge South – Awarded a $200,000 CWF grant to address the largest phosphorus loads discharging from a 885 acres to Lake St. Croix through the installation of targeted stormwater treatment best management practices ranked in the top 10 of the prioritized in the 2018 Lake St. Croix Direct Discharge South Stormwater Retrofit Analysis. The goal of this project is to reduce pollutant loading to Lake St. Croix by at least 10.0 pounds phosphorous through the installation of targeted stormwater best management practices.

Program Priorities Water Quality Improvement: The MSCWMO’s top priority is to continue to make significant

progress improving the quality of water resources within the boundaries of the watershed. In 2020 we will continue to work collaboratively with Washington County, member communities, and private landowners to identify, prioritize, design and install high quality best management practices that reduce chronic pollution to Lake McKusick, Lily Lake, Lake St. Croix, and Perro Creek. Grant funded work will begin to start addressing loads to Lake St. Croix in the lower direct drainage area of the watershed.

Monitoring: The WMO will continue to monitor the condition of Lake Mc Kusick, Lily Lake and Perro Creek. Additionally, targeted monitoring of the outfall of Brick Pond to Lily Lake will continue for a fifth year to demonstrate the highest concentrations of nutrients are contributed from stormwater runoff, not from Brick Pond. Finally, work begun in partnership with the City of Bayport in 2019 to identify the DNA source of E. coli in Perro Creek will continue.

Watershed Management Plan: The MSCWMO will continue implementing it performance standards and water quality best management practices implementation plan in the 2015-2025 Watershed Management Plan. The WMO will also continue collaboration to implement the 2013 County Groundwater Plan by verifying all proposed volume control facilities meet MN Health Department requirements and by continuing to promote the Washington County Low Interest Septic Loan Program.

Programs: The MSCWMO will continue to promote the Best Management Practices Program that provides assistance and cost share to member communities and residents for implementing, tracking, inspecting and maintaining practices that protect and improve water quality. The WMO will also continue its inspections program that ensures policies and performance

WASHINGTON COUNTY, MN CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN

2020-2024

Page 1

INTRODUCTIONCapital planning is one of the fundamental building blocks in developing an effective budgeting process. Capital Plans serve as an important planning tool for Washington County to plan for, and anticipate, growth or economic changes. It also provides a mechanism to match cash flows to meet the desired level of capital improvements, as well as providing information to schedule capital projects that conform to cash flow constraints, maximize investment yields through thoughtful bond planning, or to establish the required levels and the most economical source of project funding. Capital plans also help to establish a guide for making capital investment decisions logically and in a deliberate and accountable fashion. In this way, options for major repair, replacement, acquisitions, and construction can be thoroughly evaluated.

The purpose of the county’s Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is to recognize and address county needs through long-term planning and balanced investment in supporting public infrastructure. To ensure that this commitment is viable and achievable, appropriate capital improvement factors will be given significant consideration in developing a CIP that addresses county priorities and serves the needs of the county over the next five years. This documentwill also provide a planning foundation for future needs assessments to ensure the county is responding to critical infrastructure components of future growth. The CIP represents a beginning in terms of producing a consolidated capital improvement plan and project schedule that will lead to timely and cost-effective completion.

The objectives of the 2020-2024 Capital Improvement Plan are to present a comprehensive plan that communicates the following efforts:

to ensure that county priorities are reflected in its capital investment plan,to provide a consolidated financial picture of known anticipated expenditures and outline recommended funding strategies for capital improvements,to document and communicate capital improvement needs for county projects that will ensure consistencyand a comprehensive analysis of the costs and benefits of proposed capital investments, to provide information on the known fiscal impacts of capital investment plans on total county finances, andto effectively plan for improvements that support county needs in the areas of major capital projects such as public facilities, roads and bridges, and parks and land.

Accordingly, this document attempts to recognize known or perceived capital improvement needs, but as with any plan, recognizes that social, economic, and political consideration will, by necessity, determine final project outcomes and costs. Consequently, the Washington County Board of Commissioners adopts this document with the provision that capital improvement planning is subject to the dynamics of county growth and acknowledges that other unanticipated needs or funding availability may take precedence over planned projects.

EXPLANATIONThe projects programmed for funding are based on need and the county’s ability to finance them. The CIP covers a five-year period, with projects in the first year included in the annual budget. Each year the CIP plan is updated and extended one year to reflect changing conditions, circumstances, priorities, and needs. The CIP sets forth the schedule, estimated cost, sources of funding, and specific details of each capital improvement project. The 2020-2024 CIP totals $367,419,100, of which $65,430,500 will be included in the county’s adopted 2020 capital budget. Only new project costs that begin in any one of the five-year planning cycles are included in this CIP. If a multi-year

Page 129: BOARD AGENDA October 15, 2019 - 9:00 AM

WASHINGTON COUNTY, MN CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN

2020-2024

Page 2

project was budgeted in a year prior to this five-year period, and continues into the next five-year period, it is not reflected in this document, as those costs are not considered new project costs to the county. Under County policy, the unspent budget for those projects roll forward until the project is completed, without further board action.However, when a project that was reflected in a prior CIP has new budget dollars appropriated in the current CIP,total costs are mentioned above the description section of the project to accurately reflect all associated project costs; past, present, and future.

Projects included in this CIP have the following characteristics:are related to Parks and Land, orare related to Public Facilities, orare related to Transportation / Transit Infrastructure (roads and bridges), andare budgeted within the county’s Capital Projects Fund(s), orare budgeted within the Regional Rail Authority Fund, andhave an expected useful life of five years or more.

Additionally, an informal multi-year planning document related to capital technology and equipment can be viewed on the County’s website in late February of each year.

The following describes the information listed in the summary tables and/or project detail sheets:

Budget Impact / OtherInformation listed here describes if and to what extent the project will affect the county’s current and future operating budget and the services that the county provides. Financial factors may include personnel costs, maintenance costs, utility costs, or various changes in revenues/expenditures, etc. Estimated dollar amounts are included when known and available. Non-financial factors may include environmental impacts, response times, access to services, public safety, etc.

CategoryThere are three categories into which a project may fall.

Parks & Land projects include the acquisition and development of land and park facilities for recreation and open space purposes.

Public Facilities projects include the construction or expansion of county buildings used for offices and operations, excluding parks facilities included above.

Road & Bridge projects involve the construction of transportation infrastructure, transit projects, pavement improvement projects, railroad crossing improvements, right-of-way acquisition needed for transportationprojects, safety improvements, traffic management signals, etc.

Department / ContactIdentifies the capital project fund used to account for the project and identifies the department in charge of managing the project.

DescriptionA brief description and/or scope of the project.

JustificationThis field is used to outline the need for the project.

Project Number / NameThese are the numbers and project names assigned to a specific project in the CIP. They are used in reviewing the status of ongoing projects and evaluating past years' efforts and accomplishments as CIP projects are completed.Numbers appearing along with a project name in the Road & Bridge projects indicate the county road number. For example, CSAH 13 is County State Aid Highway 13; TH 95 is Trunk Highway 95. This numeric format will appear throughout the Road & Bridge CIP section.

Expenditure Type / ExpendituresDescribes the type of expenditure the project falls into: Construction, Land Acquisition, Planning/Design, and Right-of-Way.

Five Year CostsThis is the estimated cost of the project during the current five-year period; unknown factors at the time of publishing the CIP can result in changes to the actual project costs as those factors become known. If a project listed in this CIP had additional associated costs adopted in a former CIP, or will have costs in a future CIP, total estimated project costs are shown above the project’s description section. For projects that involve other agencieswhose funding does not run through the county’s financial records, only those costs managed by the county are listed, unless noted in the description of the project.NOTE: When Bond Proceeds are indicated as a funding source, a matching amount of expenditures are shown in the same year, however, all expenditures may not actually occur in the same year as the bonds are sold. They are reflected in this manner to reconcile to the County’s Adopted Budget in the first year of the CIP.

Funding SourcesThese are the projected financing methods for the projects. If funding for a specific project has not yet been determined, its financing method is indicated as “undesignated”. If more than one funding source is used for a given project, the project will be listed with its corresponding amount under each applicable funding source on the Projects by Funding Source summary report.

Funding needs are met using a variety of methods. The major financing methods included in this CIP are reviewed below.

Bond Proceeds / Other Bonds are debt instruments sold by a county that are repaid over a number of years through county property taxes or through other revenue streams. Bond proceeds may include capital improvement bonds as well as capital notes sold by the county. Additionally, Land and Water Legacy Program (LWLP) are revenues that have been generated from a voter approved referendum of the sale of bonds for the preservation of water quality, woodlands, and other natural areas. The proceeds of bond sales are used to pay for capital projects.

Capital Repair Fund revenues are derived from rent each department pays to the Building ServicesDivision based on a space allocation methodology. This fund pays for major rehabilitation, restoration, andmaintenance of existing capital assets and county facilities.

County Environmental Charge – is a fee imposed under Minnesota statute on all generators, owners, lessees or occupants of property, including properties owned, leased, or used by the State or a political subdivision of the State. The intent of the service charge (fee) is to provide for solid waste management services by the County or by those under contract with the County.

County Program Aid is revenue aid given to county governments from the State of Minnesota and is intended to reduce property taxes for individual taxpayers. This revenue source is often reduced through legislative action due to statewide budget issues, therefore final amounts may change substantially based on decisions made during the annual legislative sessions.

County Sales Tax – 993 is a funding source derived from a ¼ percent sales tax and $20 per motor vehicle excise tax. The revenue is dedicated for improvements included in a transportation and transit plan specific to this revenue source and adopted/amended by the County Board following a public hearing.

Federal Grants are monies supplied by the federal government for certain local projects when they meet goals that are of national importance. These funds may range from as small as a 10 percent contribution to a 100 percent cost grant.

Local Contribution is the amount a local government will pay toward a project that mutually benefits the county and the local jurisdiction. Typically cities fund right-of-way acquisitions for road projects.Contributions from local governments are based on cost-participation agreements.

Local Grants are monies supplied by the local government for certain local projects when they meet goals that are of local importance.

Planned Use of Fund Balance is typically used when the timing of expenditures does not match receipt of the revenue. For example, revenues may be accumulated in advance of a major capital project and added to fund balance until project funding is needed, or fund balance may be used in anticipation of future reimbursements from external sources.

Planned Use of Fund Balance – MDB (Mission Directed Budget) is used by allocating a portion of unassigned year-end excess revenues over expenses to fund special priority projects.

Private Funds include revenue sources such as donations from private citizens, foundations, commissions, and other sources not listed elsewhere.

State Aid is a formula-based grant from the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) to fund maintenance and construction of road projects.

State Bonds are revenues generated from the sale of state transportation bonds.

State Grants are monies supplied by the state government for certain programs or projects when they meet goals that are of state importance. These funds may range from a 10 percent contribution to a 100 percent cost grant.

State Sales Tax revenues are generated from a 3/8ths of one percent sales tax which was voter-approvedin 2008, and implemented on July 1, 2009, for the purpose of improving outdoor heritage, clean water, parks and trails, and cultural resources.Turnback (Jurisdictional Transfer) is funding that is given when a road is assigned to the jurisdictions best suited to effectively and efficiently own and operate them. Roads may be low priority for one agency may be a higher priority for another agency. The Minnesota Department of Transportation and local governments collaborate to fulfill the intent of this program.

Wheelage Tax is a funding source derived by the collection of fees directly related to the registration of vehicles. This revenue is dedicated for pavement preservation projects within the county.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTThe county’s management team, along with its respective staff, worked diligently to produce a document that is both practical and insightful about the underlying capital needs of the county and its communities. Each year, the Office of Administration, under the direction of the Washington County Board of Commissioners, facilitates the effort to administratively update this five-year plan.

The proposed Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is released to communities for their review and comment in October.The final CIP is presented to the Board of Commissioners for adoption following a public hearing in December.

DescriptionThis project includes improvements to the Lake Elmo Park Reserve Maintenance Facility. Improvements may include repurposing existing and adding additional space for staff facilities and equipment storage.

Project # PARK-3009

JustificationThe current maintenance facility was constructed in the mid 1980's and has not received significant upgrades or additions as park maintenance and operation needs have increased. Some equipment is stored outside and exposed to all weather conditions, thus reducing the utility and lifespan of the equipment. Improvements to the maintenance facility campus will provide an opportunity to have a properly sized structure that can serve growing park operational needs. Additional office space is needed to improve staffing capabilities and efficiency.

The current budget does not address the funding needed to reconfigure existing silo/farm storage facility site. This project was identified as a top priority by the Long Range Facility Study.

Budget Impact/OtherThe project will reduce operation and maintenance costs associated with building maintenance.

State sales tax and State bond revenue will come in the form of a grant from the Metropolitan Council. Funding originates from state sales tax (deriving from the Clean Water, Land and Legacy amendment via the Parks and Trails Legacy Fund) and state bonds. If this revenue is not received, this project may be delayed or the scope of the project could be altered.

DescriptionThe project scope includes design and construction to the following facilities located at the Lake Elmo Park Reserve (LEPR) swim pond recreation area:

1) Restroom, maintenance, life guard station, and concession facilities2) Play area (including retaining wall)3) Filtration system 4) Access and pavement improvements 5) Picnic structures6) Equipment storage space at maintenance facility

Project # PARK-3013

JustificationThe buildings and play area in LEPR Swim Pond recreation area are nearly 30 years old and must be upgraded to meet the current and future demand. In addition, these facilities do not meet current federal, state or local standards and guidelines for accessibility and use.

Upgrades to the filtration system will ensure a safe and fun experience for swim pond users.

Trail surfaces in the swim pond recreational area are in need of safety and accessibility improvements.

Community engagement efforts have also demonstrated demand for additional picnic shelters that would accommodate groups of different sizes.

This project was identified as a top priority in the Long Range Facility Study.

Budget Impact/OtherThe project will increase operation and maintenance costs associated with increasing the size and scope of the facilities. Improving pavement will reduce costs associated with pavement management.

State sales tax and State bond revenue will come in the form of a grant from the Metropolitan Council. Funding originates from state sales tax (deriving from the Clean Water, Land and Legacy amendment via the Parks and Trails Legacy Fund) and state bonds.

DescriptionThe project scope includes the following improvements at Lake Elmo Park Reserve (LEPR):

1) Central Greenway Regional Trail implementation2) Pavement rehabilitation, including existing paved trails3) Reconfigure park entrance road and trail (south main entrance)4) Parking and trailhead improvements5) Signage and wayfinding improvements6) Additional soft-surface trails, including single track

Project # PARK-3014

JustificationCentral Greenway Regional Trail will be routed within LEPR. Implementation will include improving existing paved trails to meet regional standards and, where needed, building new trail segments.

The existing network of paved trails in this park has passed its service life. These trails need pavement rehabilitation and potentially resurfacing.

The main park entrance road and trail must be reconfigured to minimize trail and road user conflicts and provide a safer experience for all.

The contact station parking needs expansion to accommodate staff and visitor use.

This project was identified as a top priority in the Long Range Facility Study.

DescriptionThe project scope includes replacing the existing picnic shelter and restroom facility adjacent to the lower landing parking lot with a new pavilion facility. The building may include a multi-purpose room picnic shelter, restrooms, storage space, equipment staging area, water access, and fishing improvements. Additional site improvements to the lower landing area may be included as part of this project.

The total cost for improvements is estimated at $5,433,000, which includes a 2020 request for $2,000,000 of state bonds. Without full funding, this project scope would be significantly altered.

Project # PARK-4004

JustificationThe existing structure has passed its service life and continuous repairs are costly and time consuming. The deteriorating building is no longer in acceptable condition to be reserved and it does not provide year-round use. In addition, the shelter and restroom facilities do not meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. As the park develops and visitation increases, there will be more demand for a facility with modern and accessible amenities. In particular, this facility will help support the increased winter use (ski, snow shoe, ice fish, etc).

This project was identified as a top priority in the Long Range Facility Study.

Budget Impact/OtherThis project will increase ongoing operations and maintenance costs associated with increasing the size and scope of the facility.

State sales tax and State bonds will come in the form of a grant from the Metropolitan Council.

DescriptionThe project scope includes improvements at St. Croix Bluffs Regional Park boat launch area. Improvements may include:

1) Remove and replace the bottom portion of the boat launch with cast-in-place concrete2) Reinforce the bottom of launch to prevent future scouring from power loading boats3) Dewater and dredge the harbor4) Replace and improve accessibility of the fishing pier

The total cost for improvements is estimated at $1,000,000, which includes a 2020 request for $500,000 of state bonds. Without full funding, this project may be delayed or discontinued.

Project # PARK-8014

JustificationSt. Croix Bluffs Regional Park provides public access to the nationally-recognized wild and scenic St. Croix River via the boat launch. Improvements need to be made to improve the functionality of the launch area.

The bottom of the existing boat launch has a steep slope that is susceptible to erosion and has been scoured from users power-loading their boats. When water levels are low, users have a hard time launching their boats with this steep slope and boat trailers are bottoming out causing damage to trailer and axles.

Budget Impact/OtherThe project will reduce operation and maintenance costs associated with the boat launch area.

DescriptionThe project scope includes work in two phases. In 2016 an engineering study was completed to identify and prioritize all the needs of the Law Enforcement Center (LEC) parking ramp. The following is a list of items that have already been identified for the project:

Phase 1 of the project, completed in 2019, included:1) Replacement of the concrete, a new vapor barrier and expansion joints will be installed to prevent water intrusion at the LEC main entrance2) Below grade waterproofing on northeast section of parking ramp

Phase 2 of the project, to be completed in 2020, includes:3) Re-apply another epoxy coat to the main level of the parking ramp to minimize water intrusion to the lower levels4) Brick and concrete wall repair throughout parking ramp5) Replace stairwell doors6) Re-stripe parking stalls

Phase 1 costs are $700,000Phase 2 costs are estimated at $1,452,800

Total project costs are estimated at $2,152,800.

Project # BSD-1005-023

JustificationThe LEC parking ramp is over twenty years old and in need of repairs. The main entrance and parking ramp at the LEC have vapor barrier issues that have resulted in water intrusion to the lower level office areas adjacent to the ramp/entrance. Also, the existing expansion joints need to be replaced and are contributing to the water intrusion issues into the building. This project will eliminate the intrusion of water to the work areas below, which could lead to health concerns and premature failure of building systems/components.

Budget Impact/OtherBuilding Services staff currently spend a considerable amount of time extracting water from these affected lower level areas during rainy days and periods of melting snow. Correcting this issue will save on time and labor costs.

DescriptionThe project scope includes construction of a storage facility for the operations of the Community Corrections Department Sentence-to-Service (STS) program. The location of the storage facility is to be determined.

Project # BSD-CCD-2101

JustificationThe STS program managed by the Community Corrections Department is currently storing all of their equipment in the basement of a barn located in the Lake Elmo Regional Park. The existing building was built to be used as part of a dairy farm and has ongoing electrical problems, moisture issues, and has had several break-ins, resulting in equipment damage or theft. The STS program has made due with the space, but it does not meet the current or future needs.

The new storage facility would meet the current and future needs of the STS program by providing a security system, a safe working environment and storage, and the right amount of space.

Budget Impact/OtherCurrent storage is inadequate causing valuable equipment to be stored outside and at risk of theft.

DescriptionThe project scope is an annual program to maintain various parking areas. Washington County has over 146,000 square yards of parking lots at eleven different locations. This is equivalent to 10-1/2 miles of 24 ft. wide roadway.

2020 will include lot striping at Forest Lake Service Center & Transit Center, Cottage Grove Service Center, and Woodbury Service Center and parking lot maintenance (crack sealing/pothole repair/curb repair) at Forest Lake Service Center.2021 will address site landscape issues (dead plantings/trees) at Forest Lake Service Center, Cottage Grove Service Center, and the Stillwater campus.2022 will address parking lot maintenance (crack sealing/pothole repair/curb repair) at Cottage Grove Service Center.2023 will include lot striping at the Stillwater campus and Newport Transit Center.2024 will include parking lot maintenance (crack sealing/pothole repair/curb repair) at Oakdale Library and the Environmental Center.

Project # BSD-CW-2002

JustificationWell maintained sites provide the first impression to public visiting county buildings. In addition to providing a great first impression, well maintained sites prevent potential claims from visitors due to parking lot cracks or potholes and also eliminates potential slip/trip/fall hazards.

Budget Impact/OtherProperly maintaining parking lots and sidewalks can reduce the risk of visitor claims due to slip/trip/fall hazards or lot deficiencies which can cause damage to vehicles.

DescriptionThe scope of this project includes work on building automation systems (building controls) that allow for mechanical systems components to work together to provide the proper level of heating, cooling, and airflow to workspaces. The systems at the Forest Lake and Cottage Grove Service Centers are beyond their useful lives and are no longer supported by the system manufacturer. New components and corresponding software will be installed to bring the systems up to date.

Project # BSD-CW-2102

JustificationBuilding Automation systems at Forest Lake and Cottage Grove Service Centers are outdated and no longer supported by the manufacturer. As components of the system fail, they must be repaired or replaced with salvaged parts as systems of this vintage are no longer manufactured. As the system ages, component failures become more common which adds risk of failures in the mechanical system.

Budget Impact/OtherNewer technologies in building controls allow for more energy efficient opportunities. Aging components of the old system, which is no longer supported, account for costly repairs.

DescriptionThe scope of this project includes replacement and enhancement of air handling equipment at the Government Center. The mechanical systems include air handling units that distribute tempered air through ductwork to Variable Air Control (VAV) boxes within work spaces. The Government Center renovation project in 2011 made modifications, cleaned all ductwork, and added new VAV boxes, which still have many years of useful life remaining. The air handling units were not addressed in that project and are still original to the building.

Project # BSD-GC-2401

JustificationAir handling equipment at the Government Center is original to the building and has been extended past its useful life due to proper maintenance and care. As the systems continue to age, they become more susceptible to costly emergency failures. Expected life cycles of air handling units are 20-25 years. At the time of replacement, these units will be 29 to 33 years of age.

Budget Impact/OtherReplacing thirty year old air handling systems with new would have an expected savings due to technological efficiencies in the new equipment, which lower long-term operational costs.

DescriptionThe project scope includes:1) Replacement of the building automation system, which controls the heating, ventilation, and cooling (HVAC) systems within the building, with the current countywide system. 2) Repair of roof cupolas by installing new trim, sealants and insulation. Staff and design team will evaluate and determine the most effective repair strategy.

Project # BSD-ODL-1701

JustificationOakdale Library was constructed in 1996 and the building automation system was also installed at that time. Building automation systems have a typical life expectancy of 15-20 years and replacement parts are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain.

The exterior envelope assessment performed in 2012 identified the trim, window sealants and insulation as needing to be replaced in the cupolas. The sealants for all the windows in the library also need to be removed and replaced. This project was recommended by a consultant be completed within 2-4 years of the report.

Budget Impact/OtherThe Oakdale Library has the second highest energy use intensity rating of all county buildings. The project will reduce operations and maintenance costs because the project will improve ongoing efficiency and reduce maintenance services costs. The building automation system controls the HVAC systems and is critical to efficient operation and energy consumption.

DescriptionThe project scope includes the following improvements to the Ramsey/Washington Recycling & Energy (R&E) Center:

1) Renovations to the administrative building 2) Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) residue load-out enclosure

Project # BSD-PHE-006

JustificationWashington and Ramsey counties purchased the R&E Center in 2016. The renovations to the administrative building will address roof leaks, poor accessibility, and an insufficient heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning system. The existing RDF load-out area at the east side of the R&E Center is not adequately sized to enclose RDF and residue trailers while being loaded. This allows odors to escape and results in considerable litter.

Budget Impact/OtherThis Administrative building and RDF residue enclosure project is expected to decrease operations and maintenance costs. The total cost for this project is $5,000,000. Project cost share responsibilities are as follows: Washington County (27% share) $1,350,000, and Ramsey County (73% share) $3,650,000. The planned use of fund balance originates from the Operating Risk Reserve that was established when the R&E Center was purchased.

Additional improvements being planned for the R&E Center include an organics collection system and recyclables recovery system. This project includes constructing an expansion to the tipping floor and installing equipment to recover durable compostable bags and recyclables from trash. Through ordinances, the counties require trash produced by their residents and businesses be delivered to the R&E Center. This system allows R&E to maximize the recovery of resources and divert as much as possible from landfills.

The total project cost for the additional improvements is $42,000,000. Project cost share responsibilities are as follows: State Bonding Request $21,000,000, Washington County (27% share) $5,670,000, and Ramsey County (73% share) $15,330,000. If this project is approved, county costs will be financed by loans from the counties to the Ramsey/Washington Recycling & Energy Joint Powers Board. County funds would originate from the sale of bonds by Ramsey County, with Washington County being jointly responsible. The R&E Joint Powers Board will use the tip fee as a revenue source to pay for this debt service.

DescriptionThe project scope includes an annual program for intersection control upgrades determined to be needed, but not incorporated as part of a larger roadway improvement project.

Projects under this program would typically be individually identified and programmed through the County's Intersection Control Ranking System (ICRS).

This program assumes one intersection improvement is programmed per year at a cost of $420,000.

Project # RB-2201

JustificationHigh-level intersection controls (roundabouts and traffic signals) may be constructed at county highway intersections meeting criteria set forth in the County Intersection Control Ranking System.

The county proactively plans for the installation of intersection controls to improve the safety and efficiency of traffic flow on the County Highway System. The annual Intersection Control Ranking System determines the priority of these installations.

The number of projects programmed varies depending on actual budget funding, the availability of matching funds, unforeseen development, or intersection safety problems.

Budget Impact/OtherThe typical traffic signal costs $1,500 per year to operate and maintain. This cost to the public is off-set by the increased traffic flow efficiency and enhanced safety.

DescriptionThe project scope includes an annual program for mitigation of safety or traffic-capacity problems. Examples of solutions include:

1) Turn-lane construction2) Signal-timing studies3) Flasher installations4) Minor curve corrections5) Pedestrian and trail projects6) Signing and striping improvements

Project # RB-2203

JustificationThis annual program is needed to provide the county with the ability to be responsive to small safety or traffic-capacity problems throughout the year that are not programmed into a larger capital project.

The county proactively plans for various safety/capacity projects in its budget. Keeping an allotment in the budget for these types of projects eliminates future safety hazards for vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Proactively improving/reducing safety or traffic-capacity problems is cost-efficient and keeps the potential for larger expenditures minimal.

Budget Impact/OtherThe project scope doesn't significantly increase the operating costs of a county highway.

Project # RB-2204

JustificationThese projects are scheduled to interrupt the normal deterioration of highways in order to extend the pavement life. Pavement condition is measured/calculated annually and reported as the system wide Pavement Condition Index (PCI) that assigns a value to each roadway segment on a scale of 1-100, with higher numbers equating to better pavement condition. Public Works Performance Measures set two goals: 1) system-wide average PCI = 72 or greater, and 2) no roadway PCI should be lower than 40.

Budget Impact/OtherProjects completed under the Pavement Preservation Program reduce operation and maintenance costs.

1) Safety improvements2) Pavement improvements3) Surface water management4) Drainage improvements5) Pedestrian improvements6) Congestion management

Project # RB-2611

JustificationCSAH 33 is an important north-south route connecting CSAH 32 (11th Avenue) with CSAH 2 (Broadway Avenue) on the west side of I-35. The Broadway Avenue Project constructed a freeway overpass over I-35 connecting this roadway with CSAH 32 (11th Avenue). This connection is a regionally important one that has increased traffic on CSAH 33, resulting in the need to evaluate improvements to this roadway.

The roadway was originally constructed by the City of Forest Lake and jurisdiction was transferred to the county in 2012. The road is constructed primarily on low land and the local soils are poorly drained. The result is that the current roadway and pavement conditions are in generally poor condition. This important route also serves commercial and industrial areas and is a heavily used truck route.

Budget Impact/OtherThe project will increase operation and maintenance costs associated with additional pavement, trails, and sidewalk infrastructure, which will require additional resources to own, operate and maintain.

DescriptionThe scope of this project includes design, right-of-way acquisition, a nd construction of the Gold Line Bus Rapid Transit (BRT). This will be Minnesota’s first BRT line in a dedicated guideway. It will provide all-day transit service in both directions between Saint Paul, Maplewood, Landfall, Oakdale, and Woodbury every 15 to 30 minutes.

Project # RRA-2297-11

JustificationThere are seven milestones in developing and delivering a transit way recognized by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA):1) Pre-project development/Alternative Analysis 2) Locally Preferred Alternative Amended in the Metropolitan Council Transportation Policy Plan (TPP)3) Draft Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Assessment4) Project development5) Engineering 6) Construction7) Open for service

In our region, counties lead the first three steps in developing a transit way. This work for Gold Line BRT has been funded through annual appropriations by the Washington and Ramsey County Regional Rail Authorities and annual grants from CTIB. Project Development (Step 4) began in January 2018 with approval from FTA. At this time the project transitioned to the State of Minnesota. The approximate timeframe and Washington County contributions to the remaining phases are as follows:1) Project development - $8.5 million (2018 - 2019). This amount was reflected in previous years Capital Improvement Plan.2) Engineering - $18,658,200 (2020-2021)3) Right-of-way - $18,841,800 (2020-2021)4) Construction - $74,519,323 (2022-2024)5) Open for service (2024)

Gold Line BRT total estimated costs are $461.9 million, of which Washington County’s share is 26.1% or $120.5 million as detailed above. Remaining funding partners include the FTA (45%) and Ramsey County (26%).

Budget Impact/OtherWashington County contributions are shown as estimates based on current policies and the selection of a bus rapid transit alternative. The project development phase, when completed in 2019, will provide additional information on capital and operating costs based on approximately 30% design. In 2019, Gold Line BRT will be fully funded by Counties Transit Improvement Board (CTIB) Distribution Funds that were received in 2017. Starting in 2020, Planned Use of Fund Balance is a revenue source; this revenue source is from prior years sales tax revenue that was received.
