4.1.4 Other Considerations <br />Future Development: <br />Several parcels within the improvement area are currently listed for sale, including two <br />City -owned parcels. The Development Review Committee reviewed this project to <br />consider several design alternatives, which included possible roadway and utility <br />extensions. Based on the uncertainty of future development, Staff felt it would be most <br />cost-effective to reconstruct the bituminous pavement to minimum standards and to not <br />extend utilities or upgrade concrete curb and gutter beyond 147th Avenue. Staff also <br />believes it would not be cost-effective to realign streets or connect to other streets in the <br />area at this time considering that several parcels are for sale and redevelopment is likely <br />to occur within the next 10 to 20 years. <br />Driveways: <br />Existing driveway aprons may need to be reconstructed to varying degrees. The limits of <br />construction will vary with each driveway apron based on the elevation of the street <br />abutting the driveway and the driveway pavement type. During design, Staff will evaluate <br />the construction limits for each driveway and will incorporate this into the plans, but as <br />with all street reconstruction projects, the exact limits of construction will be determined <br />in the field during construction. Right -of -entry forms will be obtained from private <br />property owners where 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 />Staff will notify property owners of pending construction as far in advance as practical to <br />allow them time to move their irrigation systems out of harm's way before work begins. <br />Parking Restrictions: <br />Parking is currently provided along both sides of the streets and is not currently restricted <br />except for overnight parking per City code. During this project, parking will be restricted <br />during allowable working hours. <br />Pavement Cori,gs: <br />Existing pavement thicknesses have been found to be inconsistent throughout the City. It <br />is now standard practice to have City Staff on -site during pavement installation to insure <br />the proper quantities are being placed. As further conformation, Staff is proposing to <br />collect GPR data or to have pavement corings taken at the conclusion of all <br />reconstruction projects. This is already a requirement on all State Aid projects, and will <br />leave more data on the pavement section for future street maintenance projects. <br />4.2 Stormwater Treatment <br />No stormwater retention and/or treatment improvements will be required with this project since <br />the project will not result in the addition of new impervious areas. <br />Feasibility Report <br />HY-10 Ramsey Street Reconstructions <br />City of Ramsey Project No. 18-02 <br />Page 9 <br />
