Home My WebLink About#28 - Whistling Valley Street and Utility Project Public Improvement HearingDATE: December 7, 2021 PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA ITEM: Public Improvement Hearing: Resolution Ordering the Improvement for the Whistling Valley Street and Utility Improvements SUBMITTED BY: Jack Griffin, City Engineer REVIEWED BY: Kristina Handt, City Administrator Marty Powers, Public Works Director Chad Isakson, Assistant City Engineer ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: The City Council is respectfully requested to open the Public Improvement Hearing for the Whistling Valley Street and Utility Improvements; and following the Hearing, consider adopting a Resolution Ordering the Improvements (4/5th vote required). BACKGROUND: The Whistling Valley Street and Utility Improvement project includes the extension of public watermain from 10th Street North (CSAH 10) into and throughout the Whistling Valley neighborhood to provide clean drinking water to 42 residential properties along 10th Street Lane, Whistling Valley Road, and Whistling Valley Trail. Watermain will be installed through directional drilling to minimize impacts to the streets and boulevards. Individual water service stubs will be installed to the edge of right-of-way at each of the 37 platted properties, and connected to the private HOA owned watermain that provides water service to the remaining 5 properties. Following the watermain installation, street and drainage improvements will be completed including the removal and replacement of the bituminous surface and 6-inches of aggregate base material while leaving the exiting curb and gutter in place. The existing D412 concrete curb and gutter was found to be a good condition, therefore only curb and gutter sections found to be cracked or damaged will be replaced. Leaving the existing curb also minimizes construction and drainage impacts to the neighborhood and maintains the urban section roadways at the existing 24-foot widths. Ribbon curb will be installed along the 22-foot-wide rural street segments to provide better edge protection and creating a 24-foot-wide reconstructed street. As part of the Grant Agreement with the MPCA, all households in the development, regardless of Health Based Values (HBVs), are eligible to connect to municipal water and all households that connect to city water must have the private wells properly sealed and abandoned as part of the project and within the timeframe of the grant agreement. To implement these State requirements for the project the city intends to levy assessments for the public watermain, and the street and storm sewer improvements in accordance with the city’s Special Assessment Policy and current practices. Each property that connects to city water must abandon all private wells, unless exempted by the MPCA as a monitoring well, within one year after water service is made available and following written notice from the city to connect. Once the private improvements are completed, the public watermain, and street and storm sewer improvement assessments levied for this project will be fully or partially reduced based on the grant amount applied by the state. In order to assess all or a portion of the improvements, the city has prepared a feasibility report as required by the statutory process for public improvements that are specially assessed. The feasibility report has been completed and provides the scope of recommended improvements; estimated project costs; identifies easement and right-of-way, permits and other requirements needed to implement the improvements; recommends whether the improvements should be best made as proposed or in connection with some other improvement; and advises that the improvements are necessary, cost effective, and feasible. The report also includes a preliminary assessment roll for each of the benefitting properties based upon the city’s Special Assessment Policy for Local Improvements. PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 429.011 to 429.111, a Public Improvement Hearing was noticed for December 7, 2021, to consider making the improvements necessary to extend municipal water into the Whistling Valley subdivision and to reconstruct the streets along 10th Street Lane, Whistling Valley Road, and Whistling Valley Trail. The attached notice was published in the official newspaper and individual notifications were sent to each address that will be wholly or partially assessed for the improvements. A feasibility report was adopted by the City Council on October 19, 2021 in order to ready these improvements for 2022 construction. The total estimated cost of the improvements is $3,664,000. This includes $1,320,000 for the public watermain improvements, $1,725,000 for the street and drainage improvements, and $619,000 for the private water service connections/well sealing improvements. The proposed public watermain assessment is $31,500 for each of the 42 residential properties based on assessing 100% of the public watermain improvements on a per REC basis. The proposed street and storm sewer assessment is $12,400 for each of the 42 residential properties with direct access to the improved roadways. This unit assessment is based on assessing 30% of the street and storm sewer costs on a per unit basis. Assessments for street and drainage improvements will be levied over a 15-year period. Assessments for new watermain improvements will be levied over a 20-year period. All assessments that are not waived and removed from the property will be charged an interest rate of 1% over the bond rate for the project. In addition, the plans and specifications were approved by the city council and contractor bids will be received on December 8, 2021. Once received, bids may be held for up to 60 days providing the option to present Council with an award recommendation at a future council meeting up the second meeting in January. A project schedule for the improvement is attached and outlines the implementation timeframe for construction in 2022. FISCAL IMPACT: The total estimated project cost is $3,664,000. The improvements will be funded primarily through a grant from the MPCA under the 2018 3M Settlement Agreement, in the amount of $3,660,000, and in accordance with the terms of the MPCA-Lake Elmo Grant Agreement dated April 2, 2021. Special assessments will be levied, and general city funds will be considered to cover costs incurred outside the grant agreement terms. The city will contract for the public watermain, and street and storm sewer improvements located within the public right-of-way, make payment to the contractors and submit invoices for reimbursement through the MPCA Grant. The City intends to use fund reserves for the public improvements to pay the up-front project costs and to cover any city cost participation. Project invoices will be periodically submitted to the MPCA for grant reimbursement in accordance with the terms of the grant agreement. The private water service connection and well sealing work will be contracted separately by each individual property owner. Eligible private property costs will be paid from the MPCA Grant on a reimbursement basis through the city. This reimbursement applies to the contractor costs to install the water service line from the right-of-way to the home connection, the costs to abandon the private well(s) on the property, and all permit fees including a $3,000 Water Availability Charge (WAC), a $1,000 Water Connection Charge, a $1,040 Meter Fee, and a $60 Plumbing Permit Fee. If the property currently has a granular activated carbon (GAC) treatment system, the removal of the system from the home will also be reimbursed. RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the City Council adopt a Resolution Ordering the Improvements (4/5th vote required) for the Whistling Valley Street and Utility Improvements as outlined in the Feasibility Report approved on October 19, 2021. The recommended motion for this action is as follows: “Move to adopt Resolution No. 2021-140 Ordering the Improvements (4/5th vote required) for the Whistling Valley Street and Utility Improvements as outlined in the Feasibility Report approved on October 19, 2021.” ATTACHMENTS: 1.
