Council, then ask Council to order a public input meeting for 9 AM on September 13th. This will allow staff to gather feedback on the project from benefiting property owners, which will then be presented to Council at their September 25th regular meeting, after which Council will be asked to accept the Feasibility Report and order a Public (Improvement) Hearing for October 9th. He recommended approving a recommendation to City Council to review the Draft Feasibility Report and order a Public Input Meeting for 9 AM on Thursday, September 13, 2018, for Improvement Project #18-02, HY-10 Ramsey Street Reconstructions. Councilmember Kuzma asked if the project will justify the assessment amounts. City Engineer Westby replied that will be known once the Feasibility Report is fully completed. Chairperson Riley asked the logic of not assessing the two City owned parcels as the two parcels do have access from one of the roads being improved. City Engineer Westby noted that those parcels would have additional access options and believed that to be consistent with the City policy. Chairperson Riley stated that he likes that staff has done its best to not overbuild this as the future is still unknown in terms of redevelopment. Councilmember Johns stated that she appreciates that money will be put into 147th to make that consistent. Chairperson Riley also liked extending the utilities to provide additional opportunity. City Engineer Westby stated that this is a middle of the road design that should provide 30 years of lifespan while keeping the cost as low as possible. He noted that if redevelopment occurs, there would be opportunity to add improvement in the future that perhaps would not be assessed. Motion by Councilmember Kuzma, seconded by Councilmember Johns, to approve a recommendation to City Council to review the Draft Feasibility Report and order a Public Input Meeting for 9 a.m. on Thursday, September 13, 2018 for Improvement Project #18-02, HY-10 Ramsey Street Reconstructions. Further discussion: City Engineer Westby stated that there have not been any discussions with property owner thus far and therefore before bringing this to the City Council staff would like to meet with the property owners. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Riley, Councilmembers Kuzma and Johns. Voting No: None. 5.03: Consider City Council Recommendation to Order Feasibility Report for Improvement Project #19-01, Ford Brook Estates Street Reconstructions Public Works Committee / August 21, 2018 Page 6 of 11
