Pre-RFPInfrastructure & MaintenanceDetected Jun 1, 2026

Stantec advised the Minnetonka Beach City Council that the existing stone retaining wall on Northview Road, reconstructed in 2019, is failing, with a recent collapse and multiple leaning sections creating ongoing maintenance concerns. Staff would like to replace it with an engineered big-block concrete retaining wall similar to a nearby installation, reusing prior project elements such as curb and gutter, storm sewer, grading, and restoration to control costs. The engineer prepared a preliminary budget of about $96,000 for demolition/sitework, wall materials, restoration, engineering, and contingency, and requested Council authorization to help staff obtain quotes from local contractors for 2026 construction.This is a clear pre-RFP opportunity for site-work and wall contractors, surveyors, and materials suppliers who can support design refinements, pricing, and delivery on a short, two‑week construction schedule once Council gives the go-ahead.

Stantec plans to reuse 2019 project plans and will assist with permitting with Hennepin County Railroad Authority/Three Rivers Park District; pricing will depend on contractors’ 2026 workloads.
