draft lino lakes 2017-2021 street reconstruction plan 2017v3 5/24/2017 to the roadway. Many of the ditches adjacent to the roadway have been filled in or are landlocked with no drainage. One portion of the road winds through wetlands and crosses over a culvert with surface water one foot below the roadway. The roadway is below the flood elevation in this area and large ptoholes have occurred in many areas of the roadway. This roadway is the only entrance to the adjacent neighborhood, and therefore, needs to be reconstructed. In order to reconstruct the road, the drainage issues must be resolved. The road reconstruction project will include reconstructing the street to meet the City’s standard road requirements, creation of a drainage system to keep stormwater from compromising the new roadway, and meeting the Rice Creek Watershed District’s rate control and water quality treatment requirements related to the construction of the new roadway. The road reconstruction project will also include investigating the conditions of the culvert under the roadway and reconstructing the culvert if necessary. LaMotte Drive Improvements The pavement on LaMotte Drive is also in very poor condition. The road reconstruction project will include reconstructing the street to meet the City’s standard road requirements, replacement of curb and gutter where it currently exists, and the addition of storm water filtration areas to meet storm water rate and water quality requirements. Street reconstruction bonds are included in the amount of indebtedness of the City which cannot, under Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.53, exceed 3% of the assessor’s taxable market value for the City (“TMV”). The proposed bonds will not exceed statutory limits. All other foreseeable capital expenditures are expected to be financed through other revenue or financing sources. 2021 Street Reconstruction Project The 2021 Street Reconstruction Project includes the reconstruction of the following streets; 4th Avenue, from Main Street to Pine Street, Diane Street, 81st Street, Elbe Street and Danube Street by replacement of curb and gutter as needed, required upgrades of the existing stormwater management system and bituminous surfacing. No bonds are being contemplated for this project at the present time.
