Meeting Date: 02/14/2017 By: Bruce Westby, Engineering/Public Works Information Title: PUBLIC HEARING: Adopt Resolution #17-02-044 Accepting Feasibility Report and Ordering Plans and Specifications for Improvement Project #17-00, Sunwood Drive Reconstruction Purpose/Background: Purpose: The purpose of this case is to conduct a Public Hearing and adopt Resolution #17-02-044 accepting the Feasibility Report and ordering Plans and Specifications for Improvement Project #17-00, Sunwood Drive Reconstruction. Background: City Improvement Project 17-00 proposes to reconstruct the segment of Sunwood Drive between Ramsey Boulevard/County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 56 and Bunker Lake Boulevard /County Road 116 which is approximately 3,050 linear feet (0.58 miles) in length. A map showing the scope of the proposed improvements is included as Figure 1 in Appendix A of the attached Feasibility Report. City staff evaluates and rates the pavement condition of all city streets on an annual basis using the Pavement and Surface Evaluation Rating (PASER) system. In the fall of 2016, this segment of Sunwood Drive received PASER ratings of 3 to 4 which means the pavement is in very poor condition and past the point of applying mill and overlay improvements. Pictures of this street segment are located in Appendix A of the attached Feasibility Report. Existing Conditions Based on record plans, this segment of Sunwood Drive was constructed in 1996 using B618 concrete curb and gutter at a consistent width of 40 feet from face -of -curb to face -of -curb, centered within an 80 foot wide right-of-way. Record plans show that 3'/2 inches of bituminous pavement was constructed over 5 inches class 5 aggregate base, but based on recently completed soil borings and pavement corings, an average of about 43/4 inches of bituminous pavement exists along the corridor. Parking lanes are delineated along both sides of the street using 4 inch wide white striping. A concrete storm sewer system also exists consisting of numerous catch basins which drain runoff from the street to adjacent low-lying areas through concrete storm sewer pipes. A total of four pavement corings were completed by WSB and Associates (WSB) to assist with the preparation of this report. In addition, eleven soil borings were completed by Northern Technologies, Inc. (NTI). Both firms offered pavement design recommendations which were considered and incorporated to varying degrees within the pavement design outlined in the Feasibility Report. Copies of WSB's and NTI's reports are included inAppendix D of the Feasibility Report. Proposed Improvements Damaged sections of existing concrete curb and gutter will be removed and replaced, including the concrete cross gutters at driveways and intersections which help facilitate drainage to prevent pockets of standing water, which
