The project extends from Washington Street to Center Street and includes reconstruction of the Main/Idaho intersection. Also included is the City's project for replacement of the old 18-inch diameter cast iron water main in Main Street. The project is scheduled for the 2000 construction season. As part of the project administration, and to ensure that the State qualifies for receipt of Federal funds to perform work, MDT routinely asks the City to enter into a project construction agreement. This agreement involves a City commitment to certain design standards, maintenance of sidewalks installed for this project, setting of speed limits, compliance with the Civil Rights Act and compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. All of these are their standard "boiler -plate," and the City has previously entered into this same construction agreement for other projects with the State. The attached resolution authorizes entering into this construction agreement. RECOMMENDATION: A motion to approve the resolution for entering into a construction agreement with the Montana Department of Transportation for Federal Aid Project No. CM -NH 5-3(51)112F).
