3.2 Watermain <br /> Watermain was installed in 1996 under the pavement along this segment of Sunwood Drive. <br /> Staff believes the existing watermain is in good condition, and that no repairs will be required <br /> prior to reconstructing the pavement. However, if plans and specifications are ordered for the <br /> proposed improvements, staff proposes to hire a leak detection expert to ensure no detectable <br /> leaks exist. If leaks are detected, repairs will be made under a separate contract before work <br /> commences on this project. Leak detection testing is estimated to cost $500. <br /> 3.3 Sanitary Sewer <br /> Sanitary sewer was installed in 1996 under the pavement along the entire segment of Sunwood <br /> Drive. Staff believes the existing sanitary sewer is in good condition, and that no repairs will be <br /> required prior to reconstructing the pavement. However, if plans and specifications are ordered <br /> for the proposed improvements, staff proposes to hire a firm to televise the sewers to ensure the <br /> pipes are not deformed, cracked, or broken, and that all joints are sealed. If issues are detected, <br /> repairs will be made under a separate contract before work commences on this project. Sewer <br /> televising for this project is estimated to cost $3,300. <br /> 3.4 Storm Sewer/Drainage <br /> Storm sewer exists along this segment of Sunwood Drive. Stormwater runoff is currently <br /> conveyed within the concrete curb and gutter along Sunwood Drive,where it is then collected in <br /> concrete catch basins and routed through concrete storm sewer pipes to existing wetlands, <br /> stormwater drainage ditches, and ponding facilities. Based on preliminary calculations by City <br /> Staff, no modifications will be required to the existing storm sewer system to meet current State <br /> Aid standards. Staff will inspect all existing storm sewer infrastructure during preparation of <br /> plans in case repairs are required, in which case repairs would be completed with the project. <br /> 3.5 Streets <br /> 3.5.1 Existing Typical Sections <br /> The street was constructed to a width of 40 feet from face-of-curb to face-of-curb, and is <br /> centered within an 80 foot wide City-owned right-of-way. Eight-foot parking lanes are <br /> delineated along both sides using striping. <br /> 3._5.2 Maintenance History <br /> The bituminous pavement was cracksealed and sealcoated in 2002, and again in 2008. <br /> Spot patching has been completed on an as-needed basis since. <br /> 3.6 Land Use <br /> Properties abutting this segment of Sunwood Drive are zoned E1 or E2, with the exception of the <br /> City-owned parcel containing Cottonwood Park which is undevelopable. <br /> Feasibility Report <br /> Sunwood Drive Reconstruction <br /> City of Ramsey Project No.I7-00 Page 5 <br />
