Resolution 11-075• Plans & Specifications & Order Advertisement for Bids for the 2012 <br />Street & Utility Improvement Project. Todd Hubmer, WSB & Associates will be <br />presenting. <br />City Engineer Hubmer presented the proposed 2012 street and utility improvement project for <br />the reconstruction of Belden Drive from 341" Avenue NE to 36°' Avenue NE, Coolidge Street NE <br />from 301 Avenue NE to 36°i Avenue NE, and 35°' Avenue NE from Harding Street to Belden <br />Drive. He explained the project includes replacement of pavement with asphalt, replacement of <br />the existing sanitary sewer, and replacement of the existing 6" water main with 8" pipe. He <br />stated the project also proposes drainage improvements by extending the storm sewer to the area <br />south of 36°i Avenue to intercept some of the water and improve drainage in the roadway. He <br />indicated that meetings were held with residents this spring to discuss their concerns regarding <br />back yard drainage issues and explained that this area drains to the north and over time, people <br />have installed fences, landscaping, etc. and the area currently does not drain effectively. He <br />stated the project proposes to install a new storm sewer along the back lot lines with catch basins <br />and it will be the property owner's responsibility to direct run-off to the drain. Ile noted that <br />property owners will be responsible for 35% of the cost of these drainage improvements, <br />estimated at $16,000, and the City will be responsible for 65% of these costs or approximately <br />$29,000, which is consistent with the City's flood proofing grant programs. He indicated that <br />this portion of the project is proposed to be bid as an alternate in the 2012 street and utility <br />improvement project. He also reviewed total project costs, funding sources for the project, and <br />project schedule. <br />Councilmember Roth requested further information regarding the proposed back yard drainage <br />improvements and expressed concern about using a bulldozer in these areas. <br />City Engineer Hubmer explained that the City will use directional drilling to drill a pipe <br />approximately three feet below grade without disturbing the surface. I -Ie assured the City <br />Council that these improvements will not tear up any yards and this procedure has been done <br />several times in the past. He added that catch basins will be installed in the area where the <br />corners of the four properties meet and the proposed improvements and assessments were <br />received favorably by the affected property owners. <br />Motion by Councilmember Roth, seconded by Councilmember Gray, to approve Resolution 11- <br />075; Accepting the 2012 Street and Utility Improvement Project Plans and Specifications and <br />Ordering Advertisement for Bids. <br />Motion carried unanimously. <br />D.
