Elmcrest Park Parkin, g and Access Street Development <br /> Joint City Council and Park an~ Recreation Commission meeting, June 12, 2003 <br /> <br />The following summarizes the proposed scope of work and estimated costs associated <br />with Elmcrest Park's parking lot and access road development. <br /> <br />As Coun¢51 and the Commission may recall, the City has stated to the residents in. the <br />vicinity of Elmcrest that the park will not be available for organized soccer use until such <br />time as an alternative access is provided in additi°n to the neighborhood entrance at <br />Uranium Street. At the same t/me, RYAA is requesting that this park space be made <br />available as soon as the spring of 2004. <br /> <br />In order to address these issues, the Parks Capital Improvement Pro,am proposes the <br />construction of parking, park drive and street connection to 167th Avenue or T.H.'~47 in <br />2003. Therefore the process to prepare plans and specifications, and let bids for the <br />project, must occur very soon if the work is to be substantially complete this fall. <br /> <br />This site is somewhat unique for Ramsey in that the park is almost entirely clay soils. It is <br />for tiffs reason that many construction related costs are slightly hitcher than customary for <br />Ramsey. It is also staff's recommendation that even if the proposed parking and drive <br />surfaces would be ready for paving this year, that this activity not be undertaken, until <br />a2ter 'the winter freeze/thaw and related settling period. " <br /> <br />Below are the estimated costs of the elements discussed above: <br /> <br />~ 20 acres seeding and restoration ~ $2,900 per acre <br /> This price includes storm water ponds that may be necessary and require <br /> Specialized seed mix's <br /> <br />$ 58,000 <br /> <br />ca 10,5,50 lineal feet of 8' foot bituminous path at $16 per foot $168,800 <br /> ]0 'foot wide paths should be considered at a greater cost of about 20% <br /> <br />134,736 Sq. feet of parking lot pavement at $2.50 per foot <br />All estimated costs absorb the associated grading expenses <br /> <br />$ 336,840 <br /> <br />[] 4,812 lineal feet of B6 12 concrete curb at $10 per foot $ 48,120 <br />All parking lots, round-abbots and the park drive areas that have single <br />loaded parking has concrete curb <br /> <br /> <br />
