• • • STAFF ORIGINATOR: CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: TOPIC: AGENDA ITEM 6A Michael Grochala May 9, 2005 Consideration of Resolution No. 05 -62, Declaring Adequacy of Petition and Ordering Preparation of Report, West Shadow Lake Drive Area Street and Utility Improvements ACTION REQUIRED: 3/5 Vote BACKGROUND In 2004 TKDA, the City's Engineer, completed an updated Pavement Management Report, which includes condition ratings of each city street to prioritize rehabilitation and /or reconstruction of roadways. While the overall Pavement Management Program is still being developed, TKDA's report identified the importance of timely maintenance and the need for reconstruction of certain streets within the City. The streets within the Shenandoah Area and West Shadow Lake Drive, Sandpiper Drive, and Shadow Court continue to warrant consideration for reconstruction. As such, and given the initial costs incurred (2003 Feasibility Studies) the City is currently proposing to move forward with the same two projects for consideration by the voters of the City in 2005. At the March 9th 2005 City Council work session, the council requested that sanitary sewer and water improvements be evaluated as part of the project. There is currently no sanitary sewer service to properties abutting West Shadow Lake Drive, Sandpiper Drive and Shadow Court. The streets within the Shenandoah Area are serviced by sanitary sewer but do not have access to municipal water. The City Council authorized preparation of the Shenandoah Area Feasibility study on March 28, 2005. The proposed cost for the West Shadow Lake Drive Area feasibility study is $55,000. The City Council considered authorizing the preparation of the feasibility study on April 11, 2005. However, the motion to approve Resolution No. 05 -45 failed for lack of a super majority vote. On April 25, 2005, the Council received a petition from property owners along West Shadow Lake Drive requesting that the council order the feasibility study. A revised petition was submitted to the City on April 29, 2005 with 52 signatures. Section 8.04 of
