CC Regular Session 6. 5. Meeting Date: 10/11/2011 By: Tim Himmer, Engineering/Public Works Information Title: Public Hearing and Levy of Special Assessments for City Improvement Project #10 -07; Alpine Drive/Roanoke Street Improvements Background: On May 11, 2010 the City Council ordered the bituminous overlay on portions of Alpine Drive and Roanoke Street, and authorized staff to prepare plans and specifications. During the design phase a bituminous trail was added along the north side of Alpine Drive, from the access to the Northfork golf course to Armstrong Boulevard. This project was originally included in the feasibility study for the 2010 Street Maintenance Program (SMP), which was adopted on February 9, 2010, but due to funding constraints a stand alone project was created so a majority of the proposed improvements could be financed through the City's Municipal State Aid (MSA) account. The public hearing was held on March 9, 2010. The scope of the final project included: • Milling the existing bituminous roadway surfaces, and patching base deficiencies. • Curb and gutter replacement as necessary. • Storm sewer improvements, including additional facilities within the project area and extensions to support the 2011 SMP. • Whistle -free zone improvements at the railroad crossing on Alpine Drive. • A new 1 I /2" lift of bituminous asphalt. • A bituminous trail along the north side of Alpine Drive. Observations: This project has been substantially completed and the final costs determined. Since this is an MSA road it is City policy to only assess the average amount levied against other projects receiving the same improvement within the same year. Therefore, the assessments on this project are at the same rate as City Improvement Project #10 -06, which this project was originally grouped within the 2010 SMP. Recommendation: Following the close of the Public Hearing adopt the attached resolution which levies the special assessments for Improvement Project #10 -07; Alpine Drive/Roanoke Street Improvements. Funding Source: The Alpine Drive/Roanoke Street improvements are financed via the City MSA Fund, Stormwater Utility Fund, and special assessments to benefiting property owners. Assessments to residents are limited to the average overlay assessment from the 2010 Street Maintenance Program. The funding breakdown is as follows: FINAL COSTS FUNDING SOURCE Resolution Adopting Assessment Final Assessment Roll MSA $675,838.25 $547,181.55 $ 117,087.50 STORMWATER UTILITY ASSESSMENTS Council Action: Motion to adopt Resolution #11- 10 -XXX levying assessments for Improvement Projects #10 -07; Alpine Drive/Roanoke Street Improvements.
