P9IPJUTES City Council November 23, 1988 Imp. No. Stanke reported that when he purchased his pr•operty in 1975, Art Ryan 88-24 informed him that he would have r•oad access. Stanke pointed out that (Cont.) Ryan paid for the other• overlays to the street. Stanke suggested that for• the time being a temporar•y repair be done, and the propert,y owner~s, Ar~t Ryan and Council could discuss a mor~e permanent solution over the winter months. Blesener agr•eed, feeling that the bumps in the road should be gr•ound off for• now, and some Class U added. Blesener• suggestec! that over~ the winter the Council discuss the issue. Qlesener• felt that any r~epairs done, should be d.one right. Blesener pointed out that ther~e are other• areas of the r•oad that need repairs and suggested that the entire problem be looked at. Stanke agreed that the bumps should. be gr~ound off now with a per~manent r•epair• done in the spring after• study of the issue over the winter. The Public LJor•ks Superintendent pointed out that if the bumps ar•e ground down, there should still be some bituminous that will hold up over• the winter. Eilesener suggested that the Cit.y pick up the cost of the grinding until such time as the mor~e permanent r•epairs are made. Then the cast can be passed on to whoever is going to pay for• the imrpovement. Frank Frattalone estimated the cost of grinding the bumps in the road andinstallinc~ some Class V at $6,000. Frattalone also suggested another alternative to those suggested by the City Engineer. Frattalone suggested that the str~eet be dug out to a depth of 3 feet and 3 feet of sand brought in. Fr~ttalone also suggested a double layer of fabric and 4 inches of bituminous. Frattalone felt that the sand and fabric miould help to hold the r~oad in place. Frattalone stated that he did not believe the railroad ties which ar•e located under the r•oad were causing the problems with the bumps in the road. Fr•attalone felt the problem may be the different types of mater~ial under• the road such as concr~ete, fly ash, dir~t. Stanke asked if the City h~d any plans to br•ing sewer and water down R,yan Or•i ve. Fahey r~eplied that ther•e were no such plans. Fr•attalone stated that if the road wer~e repair~ed cor•rectly, he would be willing to pa,y his share of the cost of an,y assessment. There was no one else present wishing to speak on this matter. Mr. Fahe,y introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION N0. 88-11-508 - CLOSING THE PUBLIC HEARING ON IP1P. N0. 88-24 Page -10-
