Record Consortium’s (MNEHRC) Health Trends Across Communities (HTAC) Project, showing the prevalence* of health conditions by Census Tract over a self-selected geography, approximating the boundaries of the County Commissioner District. In addition, each map has a caption that indicates the Statewide Census Tract Prevalence* range. The information comes from 11 health systems that make up the Minnesota Electronic Health Record Consortium (MNEHRC). Information from the MNEHRC represents around 90% of healthcare for Minnesotans. The eleven participating health systems include all the health systems in Sherburne County: ## Allina Health, CentraCare, HealthPartners, M Health Fairview, and North Memorial Health. To explore more, visit: https://mnehrconsortium.org/health-trends-across- communities-minnesota-dashboard. The maps visualize the prevalence* estimates for the indicated health condition, for residents of the Census Tract who were seen at any of the 11 participating health systems within the last 3 years and received a diagnosis of the health condition in the last 5 years. *Prevalence definition: The percentage of people in the population with a certain health condition. For example, if 3000 have the condition of interest and the total defined population is 15,000, then the prevalence is 20% (3,000/15,000 = .20). The denominator is the entire defined population. ## HEALTH TRENDS ACROSS ## THE COMMUNITY Heart Disease (Ischemic heart disease) ## HEALTH TRENDS ACROSS ## THE COMMUNITY ## Hyperlipidemia (High Cholesterol) ## HEALTH TRENDS ACROSS ## THE COMMUNITY ## Hypertension (Elevated Blood Pressure) ## HEALTH TRENDS ACROSS ## THE COMMUNITY ## Obesity ## HEALTH TRENDS ACROSS ## THE COMMUNITY ## Asthma ## HEALTH TRENDS ACROSS ## THE COMMUNITY ## Depression * T h e p r e v a l e n c e e s t i m a t e s f o r t h i s h e a l t h c o n d i t i o n i n c l u d e M i n n e s o t a r e s i d e n t s w h o w e r e s e e n a t a n y p a r t i c i p a t i n g h e a l t h s y s t e m w i t h i n t h e l a s t 3 y e a r s a n d r e c e i v e d a d i a g n o s i s o f d e p r e s s i o n i n t h e l a s t 5 y e a r s . ## HEALTH TRENDS ACROSS ## THE COMMUNITY ## Anxiety * T h e p r e v a l e n c e e s t i m a t e s f o r t h i s h e a l t h c o n d i t i o n i n c l u d e M i n n e s o t a r e s i d e n t s w h o w e r e s e e n a t a n y p a r t i c i p a t i n g h e a l t h s y s t e m w i t h i n t h e l a s t 3 y e a r s a n d r e c e i v e d a d i a g n o s i s o f a n x i e t y i n t h e l a s t 5 y e a r s . ## HEALTH TRENDS ACROSS ## THE COMMUNITY ## Alcohol * T h e p r e v a l e n c e e s t i m a t e s f o r t h i s h e a l t h c o n d i t i o n i n c l u d e M i n n e s o t a r e s i d e n t s w h o w e r e s e e n a t a n y p a r t i c i p a t i n g h e a l t h s y s t e m w i t h i n t h e l a s t 3 y e a r s a n d r e c e i v e d a d i a g n o s i s o f a l c o h o l u s e i n t h e l a s t 5 y e a r s .

This work will build on the success of the FY25 ## Railroad Crossing Elimination (RCE) Planning grant and Becker’s Congressionally Directed Spending request, which is funding the current project development process through final design. The recommended FY 25-26 CRISI pursuit aims to secure funding for construction. We have detailed our anticipated scope of services, schedule, and fee estimate below. ## TASK 1: FY 2025-2026 Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety ## Improvements (CRISI) Program The CRISI Grant program will fund a wide range of projects to improve railroad safety, efficiency, and reliability; mitigate congestion at both intercity passenger and freight rail chokepoints to support more efficient travel and goods movement; enhance multi-modal connections; and lead to new or substantially improved Intercity Passenger Rail Transportation corridors. Example projects include highway–rail grade crossing improvements, rail line relocation, deployment of rail safety technology, and workforce development activities. Sherburne County’s application will utilize and build off the previously completed 2024 CRISI and RCE planning grant applications, the 2026 BUILD capital grant application, and the Trunk Highway 25 PEL Study. Our team will provide the following application support: • Meeting with County staff for a debrief of the key goals, previous coordination, and a transfer of knowledge that can help populate key points within the application. • Standard forms: SF-242, SF-424C, SF-424D, FRA F30, FRA F251, SF LLL • Application narrative includes the following sections: o Project summary o Grant funds, sources, and use of project funds o Applicant and project eligibility criteria o Detailed project description o Project location o Evaluation and selection criteria Proposal: Sherburne County Railway Grade Separation Funding Pursuit – FY 25-26 CRISI Page: 2 • Necessary attachments (County resolution draft, letter of support drafts, project location file, funding commitment documentation, etc.) ## • Benefit-Cost Analysis • Upload content and application materials to the Grants.gov portal. Expectations of County Staff for all above program solicitations: • Coordinate approval of County Resolution. • Secure letters of support from key agencies and private partners. • Provide access to the online application portal. • Critically review draft materials. ## TASK 2: Project Informational Handout In addition to the CRISI application, Bolton & Menk will create a project informational handout for the combined project. This handout will be submitted with the CRISI application and will assist Sherburne County in advocating for the project with elected officials. ## TASK 3: Traffic Modeling To best understand the corridor, key intersection behavior, and interaction with the railroad, our team will analyze the existing network within PTV Vissim. Using turning movement data from StreetLight InSight, we will evaluate the existing condition and a future no-build condition forecasted with a 0.5% annual growth rate (consistent with the direction for other nearby Sherburne County projects). We will evaluate and report the delay, level of service, and queueing of each intersection to identify current or future needs. ## Schedule CRISI applications are due to grants.gov by 10:59 PM on June 22, 2026. Our team will operate on a schedule that ensures a complete and competitive submittal before the deadline. ## Estimate of Fees Bolton & Menk, Inc. proposes completing the above tasks for an estimated fee of $40,000. Our team has an estimated $34,000 in previously secured MnDOT IIJA Technical Assistance that will be utilized for this application. All work will be billed on an hourly basis for the time to complete the delivery and capture project updates. We will track against this and discuss budget limits and adjustments if we are approaching the outlined budget. ## Task Estimated Fees ## Task 1: CRISI Application* $30,000 ## Task 2: Project Information Handout* $5,000 ## Task 3: Traffic Modeling* $5,000 ## T Total $40,000 *Eligible use of MnDOT IIJA Technical Assistance funds. Proposal: Sherburne County Railway Grade Separation Funding Pursuit – FY 25-26 CRISI Page: 3 Thank you for allowing us to present this proposal. We truly appreciate the opportunity to work with you and your staff. We are excited to continue to help Sherburne County secure funding for the County’s Railway Grade Separation Projects. If you have questions about anything outlined above, please do not hesitate to call me. ## Sincerely, Bolton & Menk, Inc. Eric Johnson, P.E. ## Principal Transportation Engineer ## Cc: Ashley Hudson, AICP, Principal Transportation Funding Service Lead ## Corrin Bemis, AICP, Transportation Project Manager We hereby accept this proposal and authorize Bolton & Menk, Inc. to proceed with this work.
