pavement section of 6.6-inches, including 2.5-inches of bituminous and 4.1-inches of aggregate base. <br />The reconstruction is proposed to be a Full Reconstruction, including replacing the concrete curb and gutter, and <br />building back a full street section. The new street section will match today's standards, 6-inches of aggregate base <br />under 3.5-inches of new bituminous pavement. Because the total pavement section is gaining thickness, <br />approximately 3-inches of underlying sand base material must be hauled off site. <br />The new concrete curb and gutter is proposed to match the elevation and location of the existing curb and gutter <br />as close as practical. Since driveway locations are known, curb cuts will be added. Driveway and boulevards will <br />be impacted, typically 6 to 8 feet behind the curb and gutter. In some areas, driveway match -ins must go further <br />than 8 feet back. However, all work is proposed to occur within the right-of-way. <br />Restoration of the impacted boulevards will include a minimum of 4-inches topsoil and hydroseed with a <br />residential turf seed mix. <br />Municipal utilities exist throughout the project area. Repairs to pipes are not proposed with this project. All <br />castings and valve boxes within the pavement and curb will need to be adjusted to match the new bituminous <br />pavement elevation. <br />Preliminary Schedule Remaining <br />• Council Awards Contract to the Lowest Responsible Bidder <br />o March 10, 2026 <br />• Contractor Begins Construction <br />o Spring / Summer 2026 <br />o Detailed construction schedule will not be known until project is awarded and a pre -construction <br />meeting is held with the contractor. <br />• Contractor Substantially Completes Construction <br />o New bituminous pavement in -place, topsoil and seed in -place <br />o August 28, 2026 <br />• Contractor Final Completion <br />o Verify final restoration; punch list created <br />o October 2, 2026 <br />Plans were not attached to this case due to file size constraints.
