This Supplement,requested <br /> by the Council at the October 13, 1997 presentation of the Preliminary Report, will address the costs <br /> and feasibility of constructing a 26-foot wide load along the entire length of Spring Lake Road and <br /> County Road I. This supplement also provides the costs for the construction of the Bituminous Trail <br /> as recommended in the Report. The cost of the minimum staff recommended trail was not broken <br /> out for the Council. <br /> At the October 13, 1997 Council Meeting, the Preliminary Report for the above improvements was <br /> presented to the Council and residents. It was noted that the cost estimates presented in the Report <br /> were for a 32-foot wide urban road, and included a trail along the total length of the improvement <br /> area as noted on the City's Trailway Plan. We noted that, as a minimum, the City should construct <br /> the bituminous trail along County Road I and along Spring Lake Road from County Road I to <br /> Hillview Road. <br /> There was discussion about the roadway width, and the desire to determine the cost of the <br /> construction of a 26-foot road along the total length of the improvement area and the use of a"D" <br /> style mountable concrete curb in place of the recommended"B"style barrier curb. Our discussions <br /> with curb contractors, and our experience with projects that we have bid, indicates that the cost for <br /> the "D" style curb with the 18" gutter, will not be significantly different than the cost of the same <br /> width"B"style curb. The Estimated Project Cost for the various size roadway improvements is as <br /> follows: <br /> 26 Foot Roadway 30 Foot Roadway 32 Foot Roadway <br /> Estimated Construction Cost • $1,178,266.00 $1,242,647.00 $1,274,034.00 <br /> 25%Associated Costs 294,567.00 310,662.00 318,509.00 <br /> Estimated Project Cost . $1,472,833.00 $1,553,309.00 $1,592,543.00 <br /> Estimated Street Assessment <br /> Rate per FF $38.20 $41.27 $41.27 <br /> SHORT ELLIOTT <br /> HENDRICKSON INC.
