Instead of having a seam between the driveway work required for the project <br />and the remainder of the private driveway it was the most efficient to have the entire <br />driveway paved by the Property Owner’s private driveway contractor. As in the past <br />these Property Owners were told that the City would provide reimbursement based on <br />our unit contract prices for the paving of the portion of the driveway that we affected with <br />the project. <br /> <br />This year there were also Property Owners that desired to have sod installed for the <br />boulevard restoration instead of by the hydroseeding and mulch that was bid. These <br />residents were told that if they wanted to sod their properties it would need to be done <br />outside the contract and that we would provide a credit reimbursement to them based on <br />our unit contract price for the seeding. One Property Owner also wanted to have their <br />sprinkler system repaired by their lawn service company, the repair quote was <br />approximately equal to the bid item and we are recommending reimbursement of that <br />cost as well. A summary of the reimbursements recommended on the project are as <br />follows. <br /> <br />Driveway Sod Irrigation Total <br />39 Labore Road $267.00 $267.00 <br />113 Rose Place $70.00 $70.00 <br />145 Rose Place $423.00 $423.00 <br />146 Rose Place $1,044.63 $278.00 $385.00 $1,707.63 <br />2601 Lake Shore $120.00 $120.00 <br />Address <br />Reimbursement <br /> <br />Staff is recommending providing a reimbursement to the Property Owners that <br />completed private driveway, sod restoration, and/or irrigation work in conjunction with <br />the project equal to the amount saved by the City as shown in the above table. The total <br />amount of the reimbursements recommended for approval is $2,587.63. If you have any <br />questions please feel free to call me at 763-780-0450 Ext. 3.
