pavement design life of 30-plus years. In considering that the remaining curb and gutter <br />will likely need to be replaced in around 30 years, a total street reconstructions could be <br />evaluated at that time. Another benefit to this design is that it would result in minimal <br />impacts to site access and traffic during construction. <br />4.1.4 Other Considerations <br />Driveways: <br />Existing driveways will need to be reconstructed to varying degrees. The limits of <br />construction will vary with each driveway based on the elevations of the street and the <br />parking lot, as well as the driveway pavement type. During design, staff will evaluate the <br />construction limits for each driveway and will incorporate this into the plans, but as with <br />all street reconstruction projects the exact limits of construction will be determined in the <br />field during construction. Right -of -entry forms would be obtained from private property <br />owners if work is required outside City right-of-ways and easements. <br />Irrigation Systems: <br />Developed properties along the project corridor may have private irrigation systems. <br />Impacts to these systems may occur where the existing curb and gutter is being replaced. <br />On past street reconstruction projects, the City repaired private irrigation systems that <br />were damaged as part of the project. Staff recommends foregoing this practice on future <br />projects. Instead, staff recommends notifying property owners in writing of the pending <br />construction as far in advance of construction as possible to allow them to move their <br />irrigation systems out of the construction area, and then replace it once work is complete. <br />Parking Restrictions: <br />Parking is currently allowed along both sides of the streets except for overnight parking <br />per City code. During this project, parking is proposed to be restricted during allowable <br />working hours also. <br />4.2 Stormwater Treatment <br />Stormwater retention and/or treatment improvements are not required for this project. <br />4.3 Water Main Improvements <br />No watermain improvements are proposed with this project. <br />4.4 Sanitary Sewer Improvements <br />No sanitary sewer improvements are proposed with this project. <br />4.5 Construction Methods <br />The existing bituminous pavement section will be reconstructed as outlined within this report. <br />Feasibility Report <br />Rivers Bend Street Reconstructions <br />City of Ramsey Project No. 17-02 <br />Page 7 <br />
