Public Works Committee 5. 3. Meeting Date: 05/21/2019 By: Grant Riemer, Engineering/Public Works Title: Discuss 6401 Highway 10 - Drainage Issues/Pavement Discussion Purpose/Background: The City currently owns 6401 Highway 10 on the corner of Sunfish Lake Blvd and Highway 10 by Aurelio's Pizza and Willy McCoy's. The site is currently gravel and dirt, with smaller pieces of pavement onsite. A neighboring tenant has requested the City pave or improve the conditions of the site, because the gravel and dirt is unmaintained and blows with the wind. More importantly, the dirt onsite is running into a storm drain onsite. The City has seen photos of this, and is awaiting receipt of the photos from the tenant. Topics of discussion: • Maintenance opportunities? • Is paving an option? (Temporary) • Could the City lease the site as temporary parking until the improvements/interchange are finished to recoup paving costs? Please note that plans and specs for this project were initially prepared by Hakanson Anderson. However, the City Council elected not to move forward with the project due to cost (approximately $100K). Notification: Staff has contacted the owner of Aurelio's Pizza and made him aware that this issue would be discussed by the PW Committee. Observations/Alternatives: Because of the prohibitive cost of paving the area temporarily, staff would suggest obtaining quotes for chemical dust control. Due to the short lead time staff was given to prepare for this case, more information pertaining to the cost will be presented at the meeting. Chemical treatment would likely be an annual expense, until construction began on the Sunfish Lk Blvd Interchange. Funding Source: Because the cost of treatment is unknown at this time, a funding source has yet to be determined. Recommendation: Based on staff and committee discussion. Action: Based on discussion by the PW committee. Attachments Aerial View of Site
