Background:
The county and City of Rogers have collaborated to pursue a jurisdictional transfer of Main Street located between CSAH 159 (Territorial Road) and CSAH 81 (County Road 81). This segment of roadway has been identified in the long-range vision of the county’s 2040 comprehensive plan as satisfying conditions for jurisdictional transfer, is consistent with proper jurisdictional hierarchy, and aligns with the construction and opening of the Fletcher Bypass project.
In 2025, the county entered into Agreement PW 35-43-25 with the City of Rogers for cost participation and maintenance responsibilities relating to the design, right-of-way acquisition and construction of Fletcher Bypass (County State Aid Highway/County Road 116), (Resolution 25-0307). The transfer of approximately 650 feet of Fletcher Lane to the city is prompted by construction of the new Fletcher Bypass, which departs from the Fletcher Lane corridor and proceeds northeast along a new alignment before connecting to CSAH 81. This roadway realignment results in a segment of Fletcher Lane no longer serving as part of the county roadway system, making its transfer to the city appropriate and consistent with jurisdictional planning.
Proposed Agreement PW 49-43-26 stipulates that the county will pay the city a total of $2,225,000 as a cash equivalent to provide an approximate 15-year roadway service life, on the Main Street segment being transferred, consistent with the County’s Jurisdictional Transfer Policy (Resolution 18-0259). Proposed Agreement PW 54-43-26 has no county cost in recognition of recent upgrades as part of the Fletcher Bypass project and a recent pavement preservation project providing a 15-year roadway service life. Upon the execution of the agreements, the city will assume all jurisdictional and maintenance responsibilities of the roadways.
Funding is available in CP 2201100 - Cost Participation & Partnerships 2024-2028, with expenses tracked in its associated subproject CP 2201142.
Current Request: This request seeks authorization to negotiate and execute the following agreements:
• Agreement PW 49-43-26 with the City of Rogers to establish county and city responsibilities for the jurisdictional transfer of County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 150 (Main Street) between CSAH 159 (Territorial Road) and CSAH 81 (County Road 81) to the City of Rogers, at an estimated county cost of $2,225,000, CP 2201100; and
• Agreement PW 54-43-26 with the City of Rogers for jurisdictional transfer of Fletcher Lane between Valley View Terrace and Territorial Road, with no county cost, CP 2021000.
Additionally, this request seeks to revoke CSAH 150 (Main Street) as a County State Aid Highway between CSAH 159 (Territorial Road) and CSAH 81 (County Road 81), revoke the remnant segment of County Road 116 (Fletcher Lane) as a County Road between CSAH 159 (Territorial Road) and Valley View Terrace, and designate the new roadway segment between the CSAH 159 (Territorial Road) and CSAH 116 (Fletcher Bypass) intersection and a point on existing County Road 116 (Fletcher Lane) approximately 0.15 miles to the southwest as County Road 116.
Impacts/Outcomes:
This project supports the county’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan through the jurisdictional transfer of the identified roadways from Hennepin County to the City of Rogers.
