O MetroTransit R2CSIV5D <br />AUG 1 8 1999 <br />ClTYOFCnO.Vo <br />Augiist 16,1999 <br />Mr. Greg Gappa <br />City of Orono <br />PO Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay, MN 55323 <br />Dear Mr. Greg Gappa, <br />Metro Transit is requesting that the City of Orono participate in a bus stop sign <br />installation, replacement and maintenance program. I have contacted cities, served by <br />Metro Transit, and breifly explained the features of the requested program. For your <br />review and your City’s review, I have attached the following documents: <br />A Joint Powers Agreement between the Metropolitan Council and the City of <br />Orono (2 copies) <br />A Field List for pyample only. At time of construction a district supervisor will <br />work with your crew and supply them with a completed field list as to the exact location <br />of each bus stop sign. <br />Metro Transit has no sign crew to install, replace or maintain bus stop signs. The <br />attached Joint Powers Agreement sets forth the terms and reimbursement of a bus stop <br />sign installation, replacement and maintenance program that would be performed by the <br />City and reimbursed by Metro Transit (Metropolitan Council). Key provisions of the <br />agreement are listed below: <br />1. The Joint Powers Agreement - sets forth terms and conditions of the work <br />2. Exhibit A - lists each sign location and specifies the sign replacement <br />conditions <br />3. Exhibit B - summarizes the total number of signs estimating the quantities <br />required <br />4. Exhibit C - calculates the estimated value of the contract, subject to actual field <br />conditions <br />5. Exhibit D - a form the city would use to obtain reimbursement from the <br />Metropolitan Council <br />6. Exhibit E - Federal lobbying restriction due to ftmding source <br />Note that the final reimbursement is determined by the actual work required and the <br />quantities used are simply an estimate based on replacement experience. Also note that <br />any maintenance required is reunbursed on a labor, equipment and material basis. There <br />is not an absolute schedule for this project, but we do want to get most of the signs <br />installed as soon as possible. We understand that your efficiency in installation is a <br />function of the time fimne available and we plan to be as flexible as possible. <br />A service of the Metropolitan Council <br />'i <br />*1 <br />560 Sixth Avenue North <br />hnpy/www.metrotransit o^g <br />M nneapolis.
