Background: The proposed Ridgepoint residential development includes extending Rivlyn Avenue and the underlying City utilities to the east to serve seven (7) new single-family residential lots. Attached is the title sheet of the plans prepared by the property owner's engineer, Hakanson Anderson, showing the location of the improvement project. On May 12th, the City Council introduced Ordinance #15-09 approving a zoning amendment to R-1 residential, introduced Ordinance #15-10 vacating permanent road easement, and approved the Final Plat, all of which are requirements for allowing the Ridgepoint residential development to move forward as proposed. During a previous case this evening, Council was asked to consider approval of a draft Assessment Agreement that will provide the City the ability to recover all costs from the property owner for constructing the proposed improvements for the Ridgepoint residential development. With this case, Council is being asked to approve final plans and specifications and authorize advertisements for bids for the proposed Ridgepoint residential development improvements. Final plans and specifications propose to extend Rivlyn Avenue approximately 500 feet to the east using a 32-foot wide urban street section with concrete surmountable curb and gutter and bituminous pavement, centered within a 60 foot right-of-way which will be deeded to the City. Storm sewer, sanitary sewer and watermain are also proposed to be constructed with the project, including the extension of watermain and sanitary sewer to serve a portion of the City of Anoka as previously approved by both City Councils via a Joint Powers Agreement. The plans also propose substantial subgrade corrections by removing unsuitable subgrade soils and replacing the unsuitable soils with engineered fill to provide a stable subgrade for the proposed improvements and future residential homes. The plans also propose to reconstruct a portion of the Mississippi River Trail through a realigned corridor in the same general alignment and vicinity. Notification:
