The Rosemount City Council convened on March 18, 2025, to address key agenda items, primarily focusing on the 2025 Street Improvement Project. The meeting began with the council discussing the acceptance of bids and awarding a contract for the project, which received three bids. The low bidder, Minnesota Paving and Materials, was noted for having previously worked in the city, and their bid was approximately $2,600,000—11% below the engineer's estimate.
The project includes two alternate items: the sealing of sewer laterals and improvements to the intersections at 140 Fifth Street, specifically at Canada and Cameo. These enhancements aim to address past maintenance issues and improve overall functionality. Funding for the project will come from various sources, including the street capital improvement plan, assessments, and water, sewer, and stormwater funds. An assessment hearing is scheduled for April 15, 2025, with notifications to be sent to affected property owners.
Following the discussion, the council unanimously approved the resolutions related to the street improvement project, including the acceptance of bids and the declaration of costs to be assessed.
In addition to the main agenda item, the council briefly reviewed upcoming community events, including a youth commission meeting, a fire department recruitment night, and a Park and Recreation Commission meeting. The next city council work session and meeting are set for April 1, 2025, followed by the Rosemount Expo on April 5, 2025.
The meeting concluded with no further updates from city staff, and the council expressed readiness for the upcoming events and initiatives.
