Meeting Date 4/22/91 <br />Agenda Item G-2 <br />• <br />CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS <br />PLANNING COMMISSION <br />ITEM DESCRIPTION: Summary of the City's Five Year Street <br />Improvemen rogram <br />SUBMITTED BY: Susan Hoyt, Interim City Administrator <br />EXPLANATION/DESCRIPTION: <br />Streets play a vital role in every city. Even in a small <br />developed city like Falcon Heights, the design and condition of <br />all streets impact traffic patterns and traffic flow as well as <br />residential landscapes and neighborhood quality throughout the <br />City. <br />Therefore, as a Planning Commission member, it is useful for you <br />to know what street improvements are planned for the City over <br />the next five years (see attachment 1). Please remember that <br />this is a plan. With the exception of Hamline Avenue and those <br />streets designated for 1991, each local and county street <br />project will be individually reviewed and completed as time and <br />budgets allow. <br />• Street reconstruction is financed in a variety of ways depending <br />upon whether it is a state highway, a county road, state aid <br />designated street (MSA), or a local street. Under the City's <br />current assessment policy, residential property owners pay based <br />upon a residential equivalent assessment rate of 50 percent of <br />the cost of typical reconstruction of a residential street <br />($48/ft in 1991). <br />ATTACHMENT 1 - Five Year Street Improvement Program <br />ACTION REQUESTED: For your information <br />C~ <br />
