<br /> <br />Feasibility Report <br />2021 Street and Utility Improvement Project <br />City of St. Anthony Village <br />WSB Project No. 015900-000 PAGE 8 <br />After the subgrade excavation is completed in the streets, a geotextile fabric will be placed to <br />separate the existing underlying soft materials from the granular materials. Twelve inches (12”) of <br />select granular material or "sand cushion" will be placed on the geotextile fabric to provide a firm base <br />for the eight inches (8”) of Class 5 aggregate base and four inches (4”) of bituminous asphalt <br />pavement. <br /> <br />These streets will be replaced with bituminous asphalt pavement per City Council Resolution 07-022. <br />The decision was reached following the outcome of the Street Reconstruction Task Force report <br />presented on November 13, 2007. <br /> <br />The proposed typical sections is shown on Figure 8 in Appendix A. <br /> <br />4.1.5 Permits and Approvals <br /> <br />Reconstruction of the roadways will disturb over one acre and will require a National Pollution <br />Discharge Elimination Systems (NPDES) General Storm Water Permit (MNR 100001) that must be <br />obtained by the City of St. Anthony Village from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). <br /> <br />The reconstruction of the existing water main will require a permit from the Minnesota Department of <br />Health. <br /> <br />The reconstruction will also require a permit from the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD). This <br />may require stormwater treatment for the runoff from the project area. <br /> <br />4.1.6 Detour Routes <br /> <br />The project will require significant excavation and disposal of unacceptable material from the existing <br />street area and a supply of significant volumes of select granular base, aggregate base, and <br />bituminous pavement materials. This effort will require closing the roads under construction and <br />increasing loaded truck traffic on the streets adjacent to the construction area. Adequately signed <br />detours will be identified to direct traffic around the construction zones and notify users of the <br />increased truck and construction activity. To accommodate the property owners along the excavated <br />roads, temporary parking on the adjacent streets may be necessary during the periods when vehicle <br />access is not possible. <br /> <br />4.2 MILL AND OVERLAY IMPROVEMENTS <br /> <br />Mill and overlay improvements are a cost effective maintenance strategy to extend the life cycle of the <br />roadway. Mill and overlay improvements are most effective when scheduled within 15 years of original <br />construction. <br />Improvements along 29th Avenue and St. Anthony Boulevard include milling down the existing bituminous <br />pavement 1 3/4-inches over the first 7 feet adjacent to the existing curb and milling the remaining <br />roadway to a depth of 1/2-inch for the purposes of reestablishing the crown of the road. A new 2-inch <br />wear course will then be paved over the entire street extending the pavement life of the roadway. The <br />additional 1/4-inch will extend above the toe of curb to keep the pavement above the curb as the road <br />settles over time. Both 29th Avenue and St. Anthony Boulevard are designated as Municipal State Aid <br />(MSA) roadways and will be designed to MSA standards for mill and overlay improvements. <br />Due to the poor condition of the pavement and the age of the roadways, improvements along 32nd <br />Avenue and Croft Drive include milling the full depth of existing bituminous pavement, grading and <br />compaction of the existing aggregate, and installation of new bituminous pavement. Both roadways are <br />approaching 27 years in age and replacement of pavement will completely remove the deteriorated <br />pavement while utilizing the existing aggregate and sand sections. <br /> <br />The proposed typical sections are shown on Figure 9 and Figure 10 in Appendix A. <br />45
