o 0.20 miles of urban section with concrete curb and gutter • Section 16 Unplatted o 0.52 miles of rural section •Wildwood Acres o 0.75 miles of rural section •Generally, mill and overlay improvements only require topographic survey of the pedestrian ramps for ADA upgrades. In total, the 2025—2034 CIP proposes to reconstruct approximately 7.39 miles and overlay 5.39 miles of public streets in 2026. For comparison, the Pavement Management Program(PMP) included 7.03 miles of street reconstructions in 2024 and 5.85 miles in 2025. Additionally, the PMP included 5.76 miles of pavement overlays in 2024 and 3.50 miles in 2025. Staff will use the materials as design aids for the 2026 proposed improvement projects. Topographic surveys are essential to locate all existing site features and to create an existing ground surface,used as the base for designing the project. Geotechnical reports inform staff of subsoil conditions,which is essential when designing the pavement section for the reconstructed streets. Also included are groundwater elevations and support capabilities of the soils for utilities and trenches, as well as associated backfilling recommendations. Televising sewer pipes informs staff of the condition of the pipes, and locates existing damage. This allows Staff to include fixing damaged pipes into the construction plans,which can be more cost-effective than doing repairs as standalone projects, or as change orders during the reconstruction project. Street segment summaries and the 2025 Draft Pavement Management Program map is attached to this case for reference. Notification: If Council orders request for proposals, staff will request proposals from firms known to perform said services. Time Frame/Observations/Alternatives: Alternatives: Adopt Resolution#25-044 ordering request for proposals for topographic surveys, geotechnical evaluations and utility testing for 2026 Capital Improvement Program Projects. Funding Source: Funding for this work is proposed to come from the respective pavement and utility funds; Pavement Management Funds, Municipal State Aid Funds, Sanitary Sewer Utility Funds, and Storm Water Utility Funds. Recommendation: Staff recommends adopting Resolution#25-044 ordering request for proposals for topographic surveys, geotechnical evaluations and utility testing for 2026 Capital Improvement Program Projects. On February 18,2025,the Ramsey Public Works Committee reviewed the 2026 Capital Improvement Project Projects and recommended City Council order request for proposals for said services. Outcome/Action: Adopt Resolution#25-044 ordering request for proposals for topographic surveys, geotechnical evaluations and utility testing for 2026 Capital Improvement Program Projects.
