Resolution 16-051 a resolution Ordering Preparation of Feasibility Report for the 2017 1 <br />Street & Utility Improvements. 2 <br /> 3 <br />City Engineer Todd Hubmer stated the City Council is asked to consider a resolution ordering 4 <br />the preparation of a feasibility report for the 2017 Street and Utility Improvement Project for: 5 <br />• Penrod Lane from 36th Avenue NE to Skycroft Drive 6 <br />• Skycroft Drive from Penrod Lane to Maplewood Drive 7 <br />• Maplewood Drive from Skycroft Drive to Highcrest Road 8 <br />• Chelmsford Lane from 36th Avenue NE to Maplewood Drive 9 <br />• Options for the Mill and overlay of Silver Lake Court from Silver Lane to the cul-de-sac. 10 <br /> 11 <br />Mr. Hubmer stated these additional improvements are being included with the 2017 feasibility 12 <br />report due to the amount of time and resources that Public Works staff has been spending on 13 <br />repairing badly deteriorating pavements at these locations. The feasibility report will identify a 14 <br />cost and schedule for pavement improvements. Mr. Hubmer indicated the locations on a map for 15 <br />Council consideration. Mr. Hubmer reviewed the anticipated project schedule. 16 <br /> 17 <br /> Councilmember Gray asked if there have been any water service issues at Silver Lake Court and 18 <br />Mr. Hubmer stated there have been significant water main issues in that area. Councilmember 19 <br />Gray asked if would make sense to do reconstruction now rather than just the mill and overlay. 20 <br />Mr. Hubmer stated he will research. 21 <br /> 22 <br /> Mayor Faust stated this is proposed for 2017 and the residents are looking forward to the 23 <br />September meeting where information on the project will be communicated. Mr. Hubmer stated 24 <br />he has already had some conversations with residents about the projects. 25 <br /> 26 <br />Motion by Councilmember Jenson, seconded by Councilmember Brever, to approve Resolution 27 <br />16-051 a resolution Ordering Preparation of Feasibility Report for the 2017 Street and Utility 28 <br />Improvements. 29 <br /> 30 <br />Motion carried 4-0 31 <br /> 32 <br />B. Resolution 16-052 a resolution Requesting an Advance from the Municipal State Aid 33 <br />Street Fund for Calendar Year 2017 34 <br /> 35 <br />City Manager Mark Casey stated the Council is requested to consider requesting an advance 36 <br />from the Municipal State Aid Street Fund for the Calendar Year 2017. The process for requesting 37 <br />an advance requires a Council resolution. Distribution of the funds will not be made until 2017 38 <br />and the State Aid finance department will advise the City if the advance is approved. Cities are 39 <br />allowed to request advances for Municipal State Aid projects costs (or for costs previously 40 <br />incurred). 41 <br /> 42 <br />Mr. Casey explained the current request equals four times the City’s annual State Aid 43 <br />construction allotment. The City was recently allocated $263,251 in 2016 for Municipal State 44 <br />Aid projects. The requested advance will total $1,053,004. This advance will maintain the 45 <br />maximum advance of construction reimbursements allowed. Mr. Casey noted the State account 46 <br />does not bear interest and the State prefers that cities draw down their account in connection with 47 <br />2
