CC Regular Session <br />Meeting Date: 10/26/2021 <br />Submitted For: Joe Feriancek, Engineering/Public Works <br />By: Joe Feriancek, Engineering/Public Works <br />Information <br />5. 17. <br />Title: <br />Adopt Resolution #21-307 Ordering Plans and Specifications for Improvement Project #22-06, Wood Pond Hills <br />2nd — 5th Street Reconstructions <br />Purpose/Background: <br />Purpose: <br />The purpose of this case is to adopt Resolution #21-307 Ordering Plans and Specifications for Improvement Project <br />#22-06, Wood Pond Hills 2nd — 5th Street Reconstructions. <br />Background: <br />The current 2021 — 2030 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) identifies Wood Pond Hills 2nd — 5th Additions for <br />street reconstruction improvements in 2026. The pavement condition has noticeably declined over the last several <br />years, which has caused Staff to receive numerous comments from residents. Public Works Staff has been required <br />to spend several days in the spring patching these streets. The condition of the pavement has gone beyond what is <br />reasonably maintainable with only patching and this project was moved forward to 2022 within the proposed 2022 <br />— 2031 CIP. <br />City Improvement Project 22-06 proposes to reconstruct the streets within the Wood Pond Hills 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and <br />5th subdivision, generally located southwest of Sunwood Drive and Nowthen Boulevard. The streets total <br />approximately 4,600 linear feet (0.88 miles) in length, and are 31 feet wide urban section with surmountable <br />concrete curb and gutter. A figure showing the project scope and a street segment summary is attached to this case. <br />On July 13, 2021, the Ramsey City Council ordered the City Engineer to request proposals for topographic survey, <br />geotechnical evaluations and utility testing for proposed 2022 Pavement Management Program (PMP) projects, <br />including IP 22-06. On August 8, 2021, the Ramsey City Council awarded a proposal to Hakanson Anderson for <br />topographic survey, and Haugo Geotechnical Services for a geotechnical report of the project area. On August 24, <br />2021, the Ramsey City Council awarded a proposal to Hydro-Klean, LLC for cleaning and televising the sanitary <br />and storm sewer, and Water Conservation Services, Inc. for watermain leak testing of the project area. <br />Engineering Staff has completed an initial review of the topographic survey and geotechnical report, determining <br />the requirements of the proposals have been met. The initial review of the geotechnical report revealed sub -base <br />materials which are generally well suited for utility installation and street construction. The report will be further <br />consulted by Staff during project design. <br />The streets within Wood Pond Hills 2nd — 5th Additions were included in the Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) <br />Pavement Evaluation performed by Braun Intertec. This data provides bituminous and aggregate base thickness <br />information. The GPR data is included in the street segment summary attached to this case. <br />The streets within the project area are 31 feet wide, urban section streets, and are proposed to be reconstructed to <br />the City's current standard residential street design. This includes a minimum 4 inches aggregate base and 3.5 <br />inches of new bituminous pavement. Staff is proposing to use the full -depth reclamation process, reclaiming the <br />existing bituminous pavement and underlying aggregate base, removing excess reclamation material, re -using the <br />remaining material as the new aggregate base, and placing 3.5 inches of new bituminous pavement on top. The <br />existing concrete curb and gutter is proposed to remain, with spot repairs to damaged curb and gutter being <br />
