e <br /> CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br /> Maier Stewart Associates Inc. <br /> MEMO TO: Residents in Northome Area <br /> FROM: Maier Stewart Associates <br /> Terry Maurer Bill Westerberg <br /> SUBJECT: Informational Meeting Summary <br /> Proposed Northome Area Alley Improvements <br /> DATE: June 1, 1993 <br /> FILE: 330 031 -10 <br /> We would like to thank those who attended the informational meeting on Tuesday, June 1, 1993, <br /> for their questions and comments. Following is a list of the questions and comments and a <br /> review of the key points from the meeting. <br /> The key points of the project are as follows: <br /> 1. It is proposed to reconstruct the alleys in the Northome area except for the alleys between <br /> Albert and Hamline Avenue and between Larpenteur and California Avenue. <br /> Existing alley widths vary between 11 and 19 feet, with a right -of -way width that varies <br /> between 18 and 20 feet. The existing bituminous pavement was originally constructed <br /> in 1955 according to information provided by the City Clerk, Ms. Shirley Chenoweth, <br /> and Mr. Vince Wright, the Maintenance Director. Two options were given for the alley <br /> reconstruction typical sections. <br /> Design Option 1: The alley would be reconstructed with an inverted crown <br /> approximately 16 feet wide with 3.5 inches of bituminous pavement and 10.5 inches of <br /> Class 5 aggregate base. In this option, drainage would be down the center of the alley <br /> and storm sewer added where available. <br /> Design Option 2: This option uses the same pavement section as design option 1 except <br /> that it incorporates a 3 -foot wide concrete valley gutter down the center of the alley. The <br /> width of the alley would increase to 19 feet because the minimum width a bituminous <br /> paver can make is 8 feet on either side of the concrete valley gutter. Negative to this <br /> design is that a waiver of trespass will be required on a few blocks for 19 -foot <br /> construction within an 18 -foot right -of -way. <br /> 1959 SLOAN PLACE, SUITE 200, ST.
