sewer and watermain utilities as well as storm sewer to drain the roadway runoff. It is anticipated that these utilities will not be impacted by the proposed improvements; however, minor utility modifications, such as manhole and valve adjustments, will be required within Lake Drive. All utilities were constructed in 1999 and are believed to be in good condition. The residential properties that lie adjacent to the project area are single family homes with garages. One residential property (Parcel ID 08- 31 -22 -43 -0002) lying within the proposed alignment will have to be acquired and the house demolished. The existing private utilities within the roadway right -of -way consist of poles with overhead power and underground natural gas, cable television, and telephone. It is anticipated that some or all of the private utilities may require a relocation and realignment. III. PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS The proposed improvements for the project consist of street realignment, traffic signal modifications, storm sewer and storm water treatment, sanitary sewer and watermain construction. In addition, the proposed improvements will require that private property be acquired for roadway right -of -way and for storm water treatment. Refer to the proposed improvements exhibit located in the Appendix. A. STREET IMPROVEMENTS The street improvements include removing the existing 77th Street between Marilyn Avenue and Lake Drive such that the 77th Street intersection at Lake Drive is abandoned. The street will then be realigned from Marilyn Avenue and extend southeast, for approximately 500 feet (0.09 mile), and connect to Lake Drive at the intersection with Marketplace Drive. The connection of 77th Street at the Marketplace Drive intersection will establish a four - legged intersection. The proposed realigned street will be constructed with the 32 foot wide City Standard street section with concrete curb and gutter. However, as the realigned street approaches Lake Drive, it is proposed to install a 12 foot wide left turn lane which will facilitate turning movements for vehicles approaching Lake Drive.
