<br /> Proposed Parking Lot Rehabilitation
<br /> Cost Estimates—3`d Option
<br /> Our File No. 435-04-106
<br /> Dear Ms.Rygwall:
<br /> On February 10, 2004 we transmitted to you a package of materials regarding a potential project to rehabilitate
<br /> the existing parking lot at Lakeside Lions Park. The materials included a cover letter, along with cost
<br /> estimates and sketches of two options for configuration of the parking lot. Also included was a cost
<br /> comparison chart for the proposed options to the existing parking lots at Terrace and Able Parks.
<br /> Option 1 of the previous transmittal was based on right-angle parking, oriented mainly in a north-south
<br /> direction. Option 2 was based on parking stalls angled at 60 degrees, and oriented mainly in an east-west
<br /> direction. Based on discussion since that time, you have requested that information be provided regarding a
<br /> third option for parking lot. Option 3 would have angled parking similar to Option 2,but oriented in a north-
<br /> south fashion as in Option 1. Traffic circulation in Option 3 would be mainly one-way.
<br /> We have completed a working drawing and cost estimate for Option 3, and are transmitting it with this letter.
<br /> Also included are the previous cost estimates and drawings for Options 1 and 2 for reference, as well as an
<br /> updated cost comparison chart to include Option 3.
<br /> It can be seen from the information that the surface area of the parking lot in Option 3 is approximately 10%
<br /> smaller than in Option 1. Despite this, we have estimated that the cost to construct Option 3 would be virtually
<br /> the same as for Option 1. The main reason for this is that under Option 3, there is a much larger area of the
<br /> existing parking lot that will need to be converted back into green space. We have assumed that a 12-inch
<br /> thick layer of imported topsoil will be needed for this area, to replace the existing bituminous that is removed,
<br /> as well as any gravel or other material not conducive to growing turf. The cost savings of new bituminous and
<br /> gravel for the smaller parking surface area of Option 3 is essentially offset by the greater quantity of imported
<br /> topsoil and sod that will be needed.
<br /> Hopefully these transmittals provide the information necessary for your upcoming report to the City Council at
<br /> their meeting of March 15, 2004. I would be happy to discuss this information in more detail if you have any
<br /> • questions. Please do not hesitate to contact me at(651)604-4803.
<br /> Very truly yours,
<br /> BONESTROO,ROSENE,ANDERLIK&ASSOCIATES,INC.
