CASE #9 UPDATE ON STORM WATER IMPROVEMENTS IN FOX RIDGE ESTATES By: Steven Jankowski, City Engineer Background: Project 07 -03 of the 2007 Street Maintenance Program includes the sealcoating and cracksealing of Fox Ridge Estates. An illustration of this project area is attached to this case. In investigating drainage issues at the intersections of Potassium Street with Potassium Court and 172 Lane it has become apparent that storm sewer would be the best solution to resolving the drainage problems that exist along a 1200 foot segment of roadway illustrated in the attached figure. The storm sewer installation will affect half of the 30 foot wide roadway and will not be able to be scheduled until mid to late August. It would therefore not be advisable to sealcoat this segment of street in July with the remainder of this subdivision. Staff would propose that this segment be eliminated from this year's program and placed on the 2008 sealcoat schedule. As a result of this elimination four properties proposed for the $252 sealcoat assessment will not receive sealcoating of any of their frontage in 2007 and another 5 properties will receive a partial sealing of their street frontage. The issue to be addressed is how these properties should be treated relative to assessments for the 2007 program. As you know sealcoat assessments are proposed but not assured of being eliminated in 2008. Recommendation: Staff recommends that all nine properties affected be retained on the 2007 assessment role for project 07-03. and that a letter be sent to these residents explaining the schedule for storm sewer and sealcoating improvements and the decision on the 2007 sealcoating assessment. Action: Motion to recommend to City Council that all nine properties affected be retained on the 2007 assessment role for project 07 -03 and that a letter be sent to these residents explaining the schedule for storm sewer and sealcoating improvements and the decision on the 2007 sealcoating assessment.
