RE: Prior Lake Street Lighting
KAI File No. 90328
Per your request we have discussed the bend in the light fixture
poles with the manufacturer's represen1:ative, Steve Eggert, with
the Carnes Group. Subsequently Steve has observed the pole and
discussed his observations with the manufacturer and both of us.
The consensus is that the poles were damaged during shipping,
storage or installation and that their condition should not
worsen with time.
Since the bend is slight and attemptinq replacement at this time
might prove to be difficult, since It would be difficult to
determine who damaged the pole, we suggest that you conditionally
accept the installation. We sugges1: that you put Ridgedale
Electric, The Carnes Group, and Valmont Industries on notice that
the installation is acceptable if the condition, in your opinion,
does not worsen in the next two years:. If the condition does
worsen, the installation will be replaced at no cost to the City
of Prior Lake. This conditional acceptance has been discussed
with Steve Eggert of the Carnes Group.
Please feel free to contact us if you should have any questions.

Pv; DRIVEWAY OPENINGS ON PF~OJECT NO. 90-12, TOWER
STREET AND TORONTO AVENUE
SEPTEMBER 16, 1991
On September 16, 1991, I had tele};hone conversations with
Kathleen Nye-Reiling and Greg Boderman c'n the construction of the
driveways to serve lot 2, block 1 c,nd lot 1, block 2, Enivid
First Addition. Per the plans for the above referenced project
no. 90-12, a bituminous driveway 30 fE~et in width with concrete
curb and gutter radii were scheduled to be installed on Tower
Street, Station 11 + 50. This desigTi was done when the County
Market grocery store and an Auto Mart st,ore was bein9' proposed.
These developments have not moved forward at this tlme and no
developments are pending. It was proposed to both Kathleen and
Greg that since no development is forthcoming, that the driveway
openings not be installed at this I,articular time. The city
would installed the concrete curb and 9't.tter along the street and
at a future date when the property 1::, developed, a driveway
opening can be installed in the lClcation where it fits the
development. Both Kathleen and Greg agreed that to place the
driveways at the locations shown OTi the plans may not be the
future location of the property. They both agreed to have the
concrete curb and gutter placed thrc.ugh the driveway openings
with no curb cut and that the driveway will be placed by the
future development.

PROJECT #90-12, STREET IMPROVEMENT COMPLETION
SEPTEMBER 9, 1991
J.
This memorandum is to inform you of the iecision to proceed with
the street improvements on Tower Street and Toronto Avenue
(Project #90-12). A portion of Tower St~eet and Duluth Avenue
is currently uncompleted as the newly ~onstructed roadbed was
constructed near a wetland area which hai several feet of ~eat
deposits. The plans and specifications ~alled for a lightwelght
fill embankment section to be installed in this area to minimize
the loading over the peat deposits. The plan was to allow for a
settlement period from the 1990 construction year to the 1991
construction year.
Settlement plate elevations have been ~ecorded from when the
lightweight fill embankment was inftalled. Based on the
settlement ~late data and t~e . Soils En ineer's recommendation,
the completlon of the. improve,ments sched led for Tower Street can
be completed this year. This alternati e is recommended at this
time, since the other options involve wa'ting til next year and
the extra costs versus any significan': settlement reduction is
not recommended. The road in the ligh':weight fill embankment
area will continue to settle in what can be described as long
term settlements. These long term settl~ments will decrease over
time and are typical in road construction pro~ects over peat
deposits. The lightweight fill method did minlmize the loading
on the ~eat deposits in order to prevent the shear failure of the
underlYlng deposits. A shear failure of the peat deposits would
have resulted in a much higher cost in stabilizing the roadbed.
The possible negative impact with the lo,g term settlement of the
roadbed embankment is that the settlemen.: could possibly have a
general sag in the original grade line and could pond surface
water. If this occurred, catch basins a:ld a storm sewer line
would need to be installed along wi':h any restoration items.
This storm sewer would not be installed unless necessary.

J ,EXTRA WORK FOR PROJECT N(. 90-12, TOWER STREET AND
, TORONTO AVENUE
AUGUST 23, 1991
FROM:
SUBJECT:
DATE:
Please find attached to this memorandun a change order proposal
for placement of sanitary sewermain and watermain lines under
Tower street to 20 feet south of the ncrth lot line of Outlot A,
Enivid First Addition. This proposal is from Brown & Cris, Inc.,
the Contractor on Project 90-12 which is still under contract
with the City of Prior Lake. Included also is a copy of the
cross section view and plan view of the proposed sewer and water
line installation.
This installation is necessarr to serve the proposed Woodridge
Estates First Addition plat wlth utilities. It is being proposed
to install these lines as shown on the drawings at this time
before the street and sidewalk improvements are installed on
Tower Street. Tower Street improvements are proposed to be
completed during the 1991 construction season, however, this
schedule is dependent on the soils engineer approval for
placement of these improvements in the lightweight fill
embankment area. The Woodridge Estates First Addition has been
annexed to the City recentlr and a preliminary plat has been
submitted for approval. Utllity lines under Tower Street will be
necessary in order to serve this proposed plat.
The estimated cost of these extra work items is $12,375.00 and is
proposed to be paid for by Trunk Reserve Funds as non-assessable
trunk mains. A formal change order with actual costs will be
submitted to Council for a~proval after the work has been
completed. The developer wlll be responsible for the extension
of sanitary sewer and watermain lines through Outlot A which is
owned by City of Prior Lake and is a~proximately 320 feet in
length. Staff is requesting Council reVlew this proposed extra
work for Project No. 90-12 and asks that Councilmembers contact
the City Manager by August 28, 1991 if there is a problem on
proceeding with the work as proposed.

PROPOSED RETAIL DEVELOPMENT AT THE INTERSECTION OF HIGHWAY
13 AND FIVE HAWKS AVENUE
Dear Mr. Anderson:
Based on your request, we are pleased to submit this proposal for
professional traffic engineering services in connection with the
proposed retail development near the intersection of Highway 13
and Five Hawks Avenue in Prior Lake.
In order to provide a comprehensive and effective analysis for
this project, we see the need for the following work tasks:
1. Collect and review new land use data. It will be assumed
that the existing count data and data from previous studies
can be used to assess existing traffic volumes.
2. Estimate the new total trips that will be generated in the
peak hour and on a daily basis by the proposed retail
development on the subject site.
3. Estimate the distribution of trips between the subject site
and the external roadway system including the potential
impact on adjacent land use.
4. Complete an assignment of the trips generated by the subject
site to the existing and future/proposed roadway system and
develop peak hour and daily traffic movements.
5. Analyze the capability of existing and proposed street
intersections and roadway system to accommodate traffic from
the proposed development in peak hour periods.
6. Review the traffic analysis against the previous studies'
conclusions and the city thoroughfare guide plan.

RESULTS OF PLATE LOAD TESTING
ON TIRE CHIP MATERIAL
DATE;
..~C=:=====;~==:=~~==B==B===e~~==~=:==~===~=~~=~=~=~======~=c==~=
Wo completed our field testing program ~'esterde.y 0%\ the tire
m~terial at Tower Street project. This memo presents the results
of the testing. Also, I present recom~endations for revising the
pavement design section bas~d on the field result$.
The plate load test was eonduet~d in an area outside the roadw~y
rieht-of-way. The test area was prepared by placing geotoxtile and
21 inchet of clay fill over the tiro fill scotion.
,
A 12 inch diameter plate was used for the test. A slightly larger
circular pit was dug in the clay fill to expose the gedtextile.
Tho plate lo~d test was then conducted on the ~o~ of the
geot~xtile.
A seating load of 260 psf was applied to ~imulate the weight of the
two feet of clay fill. Then the plate was loaded incrementally and
measurements of deflection were made. A plot. of plate bearing
pressure versus deflection is attached.
Th~ t~Rt r~s"lts show th~t the plate bearine for a one-half inch
deflection arc in the ranie, of 2 - 3 psi.
Flcx;.ble pavement design is usually based on an R-valuc. Your
project is desilned assuming that the R-v&lue of the lishtw.i<<ht
tire fill is 10. Based on the field testini. the design R-value
should be 5, not 10. Therefore, the required gravel equivalency
should be increased by 6 inches over current design.
Thp, pl"nnf',r} r~",V,.mpnt, ~rr.t,;nn h~~ ,. n.R. nf' ?~ inr.hp~.
thichncss of bituminous and aggregate base is 18 inchee.
Current plans arc to establish the tire chip grade at 24 inches
below final grade. I recommend that this be done 1n the roadway

During placement of the 2 feet of pavement section. some additional
compression of the tire larer will occur. We estimate that 2 - 4
inches of compression will ooour. Therefore, an additional 2 -4
inches of Cla.,. 5 may b. needed to attain design grades. The
additional ,rav&l equivalency gained using the above plan would be
from S - 7 inches.
It should be noted that the tire ch.i.p material i. not moisture

during spring thaw conditions.
During placement of the ,ranular subba8e and class 5 material, the
compression of the tire chip layer should be measured. This could
be done by placing settlement ~lateB at the geotextile/sranular
subbase interfaoe. Another method would be to hand aUler down to
the geotextile after placement of the base and subbase.

Dear Bruce,
This is our position and response to your September 18, 1990 letter
with regard to the above referenced project.
A. Even though your test balls will prevent water from entering C.B. 13
& C.B.M.H. 14, the in place drain tile will still function by collecting
water all around it and saturating the surrounding subgrade. The net
result will translate into lost time and additional labor and equipment
expense of which we will need to be compensated for. It is still our
position that a drainage ditch is the only way to relieve this problem.
B. If the City chooses to leave out curb, gutter, sidewalk, and boulevard
restoration this year, all costs associated with the installation of
such will be calculated via time, material, and equipment hourly rates.
It is our position that any existing unit prices would not apply.
Please find the enclosed 1990 equipment rental rate sheet. If you
have any questions, please feel free to call.
Thank you.

RE: PROJECT 90-12
TOWER STREET & TORONTO AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS
Dear Tom:
This letter is in response to your letter dated September 5, 1990
regarding my letters on the supply of shredded tire borrow for
the above referenced project. I am enclosing copies of my
letters dated August 29 and August 30, 1990 to reiterate the
City's position on this, and also to clarify statements in your
letter.
1. As mentioned in my August 29, 1990 letter, Jim Rudd did
check the three inch tire chip stockpile in Savage,
Minnesota and not the tire chi~ stockpile in Preston,
Minnesota. He checked the tlre chips in Savage as
these chips were smaller in size and he then approved
their use based on the size observed. Upon delivery of
the tire chips from Preston, Minnesota, it was detected
that these chi~s had excessive metal fragments not
contained withln the rubber segments as per the
specifications. To meet specifications, the Contractor
could have removed the excessive metal segments from
each load to bring the tire chips within specifications,
locate another supplier or produce a tire chip to meet
specifications. Larry Anderson and Jim Rudd both felt
that the chips with excessive metal fragments could be
used in the non-roadbed areas. This is why, on August
16, 1990, the tire chips that were previously checked by
Jim Rudd in Savage, Minnesota were allowed to be placed
in the non-roadbed areas.

the Contractor is responsible for supplyin9' on this
project. The Cit~ has cooperated wlth the
Contractor by allowlng the tire chips with excess
metal fragments to be placed in the non-road areas
to expedite the project.
b. Jim Rudd did not check the tire chip supply in
Preston, Minnesota. August 14, 1990 was the first
time that these tire chips were inspected by City
or Twin City Testing personnel. The tire chip
supply in Savage, Minnesota was checked by Mr.
Rudd as to whether the tire chip size was
~cceptable. This entire stockpile that was checked
ln Savage was delivered and placed in the
non-roadbed areas.
c. It is your responsibility to construct the roadway
with concrete curb and gutter, bituminous
surfacing, sidewalk, street lighting in this area
per the plans and specifications. If there is any
future road failures in the li9'htwei9'ht fill area
that can be attributed to a fallure ln the design,
the road failure will not be the contractor's
res~onsibility. You are not responsible for the
deslgn of the project, however; this does not
relieve you of your responsibility for providing
materials and proper installation according to the
contract documents.
If you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact
me at City Hall.

RE: PROJECT 90-12, TOWER STREET AND TORONTO AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS
Dear Tom:
This letter is in response to your letters dated August 20,
and August 23, 1990 and also in regard to the completion
extension request on the above reterenced project. In
letter of August 23, 1990, you mentioned specific areas of
and will be addressed as follows:
No. 1 - Rubber Tire ChiDS
The shredded tire borrow is a contract item with stipulated
specifications on the material. The initial material
delivered to the site had excess metal ~articles not
contained within a rubber segment. The speclfication that
referred to the amount of metal particles allowed, was typed
in capital letters on page S.P. 27 of the specifications.
Jim Rudd, of Twin City Testing, had indicated at the
Preconstruct ion Meeting that he would like to check the tire
chip supply, particularly the smaller size tire chips prior
to use. Mr. Rudd did check the 3" tire chips in Savage and
approved their use based on size observed. The tire chips
that were from the Preston, Minnesota and Savage, Minnesota
stockpiles, upon their delivery had considerable steel
fragments exposed than allowed by the specifications. The
excessive metal fragments of the tire chips that were
delivered was detected and made known to your foreman
immediately by City Inspector, Doug Hartman and Twin City
Testing Field Engineer, Steve Olson. City Engineer, Larry
Anderson and Jim Rudd also agreed that the tire chips had
excessive steel fragments which were are not acceptable per
the specifications. This assessment of the delivered

material was not disputed by the supplier or yourself.
stockpile that Mr. Rudd had approved earlier n Savaqe
some of the loads from Preston was allowed to be placed
the boulevard area only and not in the roadbed areas.
As per the General Conditions, paragraph 6.4, the Contractor
shall furnish and assume full responsibility for all
materials for the completion of the work. As mentioned
previously, the tire chips are a contract material item to be
supplied and placed by the Contractor. The City nor any of
its representatives caused the delay in supplying the tires.
The
and
in
No. 2 - Waitina Period After ChiDS Are Placeq
The waiting period referred to is mentioned on page S.P. 28
of the specifications and was also mentiond at the
Preconstruction Meeting. The Soils Engineer will evaluate
the settlement plate consolidation information and determine
when to place the Type 5 geotextile fabric and the remaininq
fill materials. The Contractor shall be prepared to adjust
the construction schedule due to a consolidation period of
the lightweight fill embankment. A delay for completing the
lightweight fill embankment may be in order due to this
unknown time ~eriod; however, other areas of work slated for
completion th1s year can be completed.
No. 3 - No Drainaae on Toronto Averiu~
A temporary drainage facility will need to be installed to
allow for this street construction. The options mentioned at
the August 27, 1990 weekly meeting is for a drainage ditch to
drain the pipe on Toronto Avenue or for a pump installed at
CB/MH 12 with a tempory power connection. The City has
requested a price from you on these o~tions. Extension of
the contract completion date for the t1me required to install
a temporary drainaqe system drainaqe system only is
warranted.
No. 4 - Power Cables Alona Duluth Avenue
Telephone and cable T.V. have installed their lines along
the lightweight fill area. Northern States Power Company
has buried their lines on Toronto Avenue and removed the
poles in this area. Minnegasco has not installed their line
along Duluth Avenue as yet. During a conversation with Rick
Pilon, Desiqn Enqineer - Minneqasco, it was decided that they
will either install the line prior to the 9rading work or
they will wait until the area is again ava1lable to them.
The utility companies have not caused any delay on this
project to date.
,
"
These areas of delay were discussed at the August 27, 1990 weekly
meetinq alonq with the delay caused by the installation of wood
chips in the liqhtweiqht fill area. It was agreed upon at this
meeting to extend the contract to October 15, 1990 based on the
extra time needed to complete the lightweight fill embankment
including wood chip placement and for a temporary drainage system
on Toronto Avenue. This extension of time will be added to the
contract when Change Order No. 1 is processed for Council
approval.

RE: PROJECT 90-12, TOWER STREET AND TORONTO AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS
Dear Tom:
This letter is in response to your letter dated August 30, 1990
in regard to ~our position on the responsibility of road surface
in the lightwelght fill area.
The City did accept tire chips that did not meet specifications
in the boulevard area onl~ and none were placed in the future
roadbed area. Tire ChlpS now being produced have the metal
fragments embedded in rubber segments as per specifications and
are slightly smaller in size. These chi~s meet the intent of the
specifications as per Jim Rudd, Twin Clty Testing Engineer, and
do not alter or significantly change the design as shown in the
Contract Documents. If you do not feel these tire chips will
allow a suitable road surface to be built in the lightweight fill
area, then you should supply the specified tire chips as stated
in the contract specifications. We are not demanding these chips
be placed on our jOb, rather that these chips are acceptable for
use. Your contract obligations are not changed by the acceptance
of these chips by the City.
Also placement of the tire chips should be in thin lifts and
compaction done by a patterned driving of equipment over the
tires acceptable to the engineer. Earlier the compaction effort
was done in thick lifts and no patterned driving to assure
thorough compaction over the entire layer. Recently the
compaction effort has improved so that the chi~s have been
com~acted to fit together to a point where the ChlpS do not
notlceablr consolidate. It remains the Contractor's
res~onsibllity to provide the compaction efforts suitable to the
Englneer.
If you have any questions on this matter, please contact me
immediately at 447-4230.

Larry Anderson, Clty of Prior Lake
The meeting started with Dennis stating the work to be done next
week. Dennis thought that the Class 5 aggregate base could be
placed next Monday with the concrete work soon afterwards by
Minnesota State Curb and Gutter. Paving work scheduled for this
year will then be done as soon as the concrete is cured.
Discussion then centered around the tire chi~ placement for the
project. The production and delivery of tlre chips has been
slow. Dennis was going to check with the supplier and look into
other suppliers so that the chips can be placed this year.
Bruce mentioned that the plate load test done by Twin city
Testing on the tire chips was inconclusive. Bruce stated that
Jim Rudd said the tire chips needed to be more confined for the
results to be more accurate. Bruce mentioned that Jim Rudd
would like to place the Type 5 geotextile fabric over an area at
least 50 feet by 50 feet and place 18 inches of fill material.
The plate load test would be conducted on this section which
would be similar to the design typical.
The revised progress schedule submitted by Brown & cris, Inc was
discussed next. The major concern issued by Larry, was if Brown
& Cris was going to complete the project work stated for this
year. Dennis thought there would be no problem except for the
lightweight fill area where the tire chip production has been
slow. Larry mentioned that all areas disturbed by an~ sidewalk
work done on the bank's property must be restored thlS year and
as soon as possible after placement of the sidewalk.
Bruce then mentioned about the manhole to be reconstructed on
Toronto Avenue. The contractor was given the option of
reconstructing the cone section or placing a 4" casting with
sawing off a portion of the manhole so that at least one concrete
adjusting rig can be installed. The Contractor would be paid for
four feet of reconstruct manhole. The replacement of fabric on
4629 Dakota 51. 5.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372 / Ph. (612) 447-4230 / Fax (612) 447-4245
Tower street was discussed next. It was agreed that the
replacement cost would be split between the City and Contractor
as both are at fault. Tree removal on Vine street was discussed
next. Dennis wanted to get paid at least the cost of removing
the trees off the site. Larry mentioned that the trees should be
priced at the individual tree removal unit price.
other items discussed were as follows:
Bruce asked Dennis for a total quantity of wood
delivered to the job so that a change order could
to be processed.
2. Bituminous curb medians should have existing bituminous
pavement removed so that black dirt and Type 6 mulch can
be ~laced with the possibility of shrubs planted in the
medlans. Bruce will check with a landscape architect on
what shrubs would be best and a price for the shrubs and
landscape fabric would be requested from Friedges
Landscape.

RE: PROJECT 90-12

Dear Tom:
This letter is in regard to the construction of Toronto Avenue on
the above referenced project.
On Monday, September 10, 1990, I did discuss the drainage
situation on Toronto Avenue with your Grading Superintendent,
Dennis Cowan. Dennis was told to provide temporary drainage by a
combination of grading and pumping until the drainage ditch is
constructed on the County Market site. The County Market site is
still scheduled to proceed this rear and may do so in a couple of
weeks. One of the first work 1tems to be performed will be the
construction of a ditch to divert the storm water from Toronto
Avenue.
Previously, you had provided a proposal to construct a ditch or
provide a pump with electrical power for the Toronto Avenue
drainage. The ditch would have to be constructed on City
right-of-way as the lease and mortgage has not finalized and the
owners do not want. any construction activity on the property
until those items are finalized. Constructing the ditch would
have to be placed in the sidewalk area and may prevent the
sidewalk from being completed this year.
Installing a pump with a tempory electrical power connection will
not be cost effective if a ditch by the developer is constructed
within the next two or three weeks.

Dear Bruce,
After receiving your August 29 and 30, 1990 letters with regard to the above
referenced project, we feel an immediate need to state our position and rebut
statements in your letters.
The following are the facts as we see them:
1. After the July 24, 1990 project pre-construction meeting, Jim Rudd of Twin
City Testing examined the tire chips, we were planning to use. He told you
and you subsequently informed us by phone that the tire chips he saw at Maust
Tire Recyclers would be satisfactory.
2. The first we heard that the tire chips were not acceptable was on August
14, 1990 when Larry Anderson suspended work on this project because the chips
(that Jim Rudd had previously accepted) were not O.K.
3. On August 16, 1990 you changed your mind and O.K.'d the very same chips again
after meeting at Maust Tire Recyclers. You instructed us to use them in
the non-roadway areas which we have done.
The following is our position with regard to this project:
1.
To date, we feel that we have placed all rubber tire chips in a manner suitable
to you. Further, we have done everything else possible to meet the intent
of the specification.
We would not have place any chips after August 14, 1990 had you not authorized
Maust Tire Recyclers to bring them out. It is not our responsibility if
the City does not get the type of road that they are looking for.
We are not qualified to determine if these chips will allow a suitable road
surface. Further, we did not get paid to design this project. Furthermore,
it is our "unprofessional" opinion that a roadway, with concrete curb, bituminous
surface and street lighting should not be built over a pile of rubber tires
that is sitting on top of a swamp.

RE: PROJECT 90-12
TOWER STREET AND TORONTO AVENUE
Dear Jim:
This letter is to confirm our August 27,
above referenced project which the
discussed:
1990 meeting on the
following items were
1. The three (3) inch size tire chips being produced by
Maust Tire Recyclers, Inc. is acceptable for use as the
lightweight fill on our project.
2. The tires should be placed until they are within six (6)
to eight (8) inches of the li9'htweight fill final
subgrade elevation. At this pOlnt, the lightweight
fill embankment settlement plates will be evaluated and
deflection testing will be done by Twin City Testing
prior to completing the lightweight fill embankment
section. A change of the lightweight fill embankment
design may be necessary depending on the consolidation
and deflection testing results.
These items were discussed after visiting the Maust Tire
Recylcers, Inc. tire shredding plant and the project site where
the contractor was compacting the tires.
Enclosed with this letter are copies of letters sent to the
contractor in regards to the tire chips and our discussion. In
the weekly construction meeting of AU9'ust 27, 1990, the
contractor requested a letter of acceptibllity for the three (3)
inch tire chips from the soils engineer. A letter of acceptance
of the three (3) inch tire chip material observed on August 27,
1990 is requested from you and this letter should be addressed to
me.

Larry Anderson, clty of Prior Lake
The meeting began with Bruce Loney summarizing his meeting with
Jim Rudd of Twin City Testing Company regarding the tire chips.
Jim had stated that the 3" size chips were acceptable to him for
use on the entire embankment. These chips are to be placed in
small lifts and the placement of the chips should stop when the
chips are within 6" - 8" of subgrade elevation. At this point,
the settlement plates and its consolidation information will be
evaluated along with deflection testing of the tire chips to
better determine when the lightweight fill area will be
completed.
Larry Anderson stated that the 3" chips are acceptable to the
City and that the initial tire chips had too much steel exposed
to meet specifications. A letter was requested by Tom R~an on
the acceptability of the 3" size chips. Bruce will ask Jlm Rudd
for a letter and provide Tom a copy. ,
Larr~ then stated his concern for compaction of the tire chips.
No tlre placement can be done without notification of the work
being done. Compaction is to be done in thin lifts and a
patterned driving of equipment is to be utilized in achieving
compaction. Dennis stated that a 04 dozer is bein~ utilized
currently for placement and compaction and other equlpment such
as a D8 dozer can be used in the upper lifts to consolidate the
embankment prior to fabric.
Additional wood chips for the bottom of the lightweight fill area
was discussed next. It was estimated that 200 C.Y. of loose
volume wood chips had been delivered and that a total of 300 C.Y.
additional will be needed to cover the area to the 945.0
elevation. Larry stated that the wood chips should be delivered
as soon as possible to expedite the project schedule.

'.
Grading of street improvements was discussed next. Dennis felt
he could have a crew on the site by a week from Wednesday or
Thursday. Temporarr drainage on Toronto Avenue needs to be
provided and Tom wil provide a price for a temporary ditch or
for a pump with a temporary power connection. Other work items
were discussed such as having Minnegasco place their gas main
along Duluth Avenue and Tower street now or wait until Brown &
Cris has removed any stockpiles in that area. Also the
possibility of placing Duluth Avenue sidewalk was discussed.
Gary stated that he did not want this area disturbed unless the
sidewalk and restoration could be done totally this year. Tom
stated that he felt that the work slated for this year can still
be completed but not for the October 1, 1990 completion date.
The completion date and a possible extension was discussed next.
Larry asked Tom when he could finish the work this year. Tom
stated that by October 15, 1990, they could be substantially
completed with the work slated for this year. It was generally
agreed to extend the contract com~letion date to October 15, 1990
due to the addition of wood ch~ps and supply problems with the
tire chips. Tom promised to have a schedule for this project by
this week based on this meeting's information.

RE: PROJECT 90-12, TOWER STREET AND TORONTO AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS
Dear Tom:
This letter is in response to your letter dated August 30, 1990
in regard to your position on the responsibility of road surface
in the lightweight fill area.
The City did accept tire chips that aid not meet specifications
in the boulevard area onl~ and none were placed in the future
roadbed area. Tire ch~ps now being produced have the metal
fragments embedded in rubber segments as per specifications and
are slightly smaller in size. These chi~s meet the intent of the
specifications as ~er Jim Rudd, Twin c~ty Testing Engineer, and
do not alter or sign~ficantly change the design as shown ,in the
Contract Documents. If you do not feel these tire chips will
allow a suitable road surface to be built in the lightweight fill
area, then you should supply the specified tire chips as stated
in the contract specifications. We are not demanding these chips
be placed on our job, rather that these chips are acceptable for
use. Your contract obligations are not changed by the acceptance
of these chips by the City.
Also placement of the tire chips should be in thin lifts and
compaction done by a patterned driving of equipment over the
tires acceptable to the engineer. Earlier the com~action effort
was done in thick lifts and no patterned dr~ving to assure
thorough compaction over the entire layer. Recently the
compaction effort has improved so that the chi~s have been
com~acted to fit together to a point where the ch~ps do not
not~ceabl~ consolidate. It remains the Contractor's
res~onsib~lity to provide the compaction efforts suitable to the
Englneer.
If you have any questions on this matter, please contact me
immediately at 447-4230.

RE: PROJECT 90-12, TOWER STREET AND TORONTO AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS
Dear Tom:
This letter is in response to your letter on August 20, 1990 on
the above referenced project.
Enclosed with this letter is the signed Supplemental Agreement
No. 1 which involved the placement of wood chips in the
lightweight fill area. Previously in the clearing and grubbing
operation, the cleared trees and bush were chipped by your
subcontractor. Payment of placing these wood chips was agreed to
be a $1,000.00 lump sum price. The additional quantity of wood
chips that is to be delivered and placed is approximately 175
cubic yards (compacted volume) or 250 cubic yards (loose volume).
volume) of wood chips over the area marked below the 945.0
elevation and a determination on how many more cubic yards of
wood chips could then be done. This matter was discussed
previously and at the weekly construction progress meeting. At
the weekly meeting of August 27, 1990 it was mentioned by City
Engineer, Larry Anderson, to place an additional 300 cubic yards
(L.V.) of wood chips as needed and soon as possible to expedite
the project.
The payment for the work on extending the watermain and removing
the hydrant at Station 2+90 left, Toronto Avenue, will be paid
for as a hydrant relocation. The sanitary sewer service on Tower
Street will be paid as per unit bid prices in the contract. This
work was done to extend utility service lines beyond the proposed
curb and gutter to allow for the completion of street work to be
done this year. In the areas on Tower Street and Toronto Avenue
where the watermain and sanitarr sewer lines are not extended far
enough to prevent an undermlning of the proposed concrete
sidewalk, panels of sidewalks should not be placed. Extension of
the watermain and sanitary sewer lines may be done by the Super
Valu's utility contractor. Concrete sidewalk and restoration
work in these areas will be done after the utility line work is
done.

At the August 27, 1990 weekly meeting, the temporary draina~e on
Toronto Avenue was discussed. You were re9Uested to prov~de a
price for constructing a temporary dralnage ditch near the
Citr's right of way along Toronto Avenue and Tower street to
draln the pipe at the invert elevation of 959.0. Also a price
should be provided on placing a pump in CB/MH 12 with a float
switch and temporary power connection until the storm sewer on
the Super Valu site is available.
With re~ards to your request for an extension to the completion
dates ln the contract documents, this will be addressed in a
followup letter. To date, we have not received a progress
schedule for this project, which has been requested numerous
occasions. At the weekly meetin9' of August 27, 1990, that it
will be acceptable to use the 3 lnch size tire chips versus the 4
to 6 inch size chips previously specifed. An acceptable tire
chip can now be produced and an estimated progress schedule to
complete the project can now be done.

The meeting began with a discussion on the proposed grading work
to be done this year on Toronto Avenue and Tower Street. The
main discussion area was centered on the drainage of Toronto
Avenue storm sewer to keep the subgrade dry and the stockpiling
of excavation materials for use on future embankments. The storm
sewer outlet on Toronto Avenue was suppose to have connected to
the Super Valu site storm sewer system. The grocery store site
has not gotten the lease approved by Super Valu, and because of
this no site improvements have been made. The existing outlet is
up to 10 feet below the existing ground and upon the
reconstruction of Toronto Avenue, the new storm sewer will be
receiving storm water. Bruce stated that a temporary pipe, or
installation of a manhole at the storm sewer outlet and/or
pumping of storm water until Super Valu is ready, will be
necessary to protect the subgrade.
Discussion next was about the stockpiling of excavation materials
for future embankments. A total of approximately 5400 cubic
yards of excavation will need to be stockpiled for future clay
cap over the shredded tires and other embankments. The stockpile
area north of the storm sewer line from CB/MH 10 to MH 5 is
available for use. Denny and Tom will review on site to
determine if the excavation yardage can all be stockpiled at this
location and a decision will be made to whether the grading work
can begin on Wednesday or be postponed until the lightweight
fill is placed and ready for the clay fill.
The compaction and sup~ly of the shredded tire borrow was
discussed next. Tom mentloned that on the Eden Prairie job they
used a 155 dozer (bi9'ger than a D8 dozer) to finally get the tire
chips compacted satlsfactorily and a total of at least 4 feet of
tires is needed he felt to support the bigger dozer. Bruce
4629 Dakota 51. 5.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372 / Ph. (612) 447-4230 / Fax (612) 447.4245
stated that a combination of equipment may be necessary to
achieve the desired results and that no placement of tire chips
shall be done unless a compactive effort, satisfactory to the
Engineer, is done. The tire shredding process has not be9'un
production again, however, Maust Tire Recyclers, are predictlng
that today the shredding process should start again.
Chan9'e order work was mentioned. Bruce stated that he needed to
submlt a sup~lemental agreement to MnDOT and Tom signed the
agreement wlth the lump sum amount for placing the wood chips
on site to be $1,000.00. Other items included the following:
1. Electrical work submittals need to be reviewed by
Electrical Engineer.
2. Extra concrete work for future MTC bus shelter
foundation will be done by City and Bruce will send
specifications on the proposed work.
3. Completion date was discussed. Tom stated that the
proposed completion date will not be met unless the
grading work was started this week. Bruce was going to
check on the options for the drainage of Toronto Avenue
and get back to Tom later today or tomorrow.
4.
Bruce stated that a total of 200 cubic yards
chips should be delivered and placed before
any more wood chi~s on site. A decision on
more wood chips wlll then be made.
5. A mistake in the bid tabulation was detected, in regards
to the Select Common Borrow item. The bid proposal had
this item to be ~aid by the cubic yard (loose volume)
where the speciflcations had the item to be paid by the
ton. Tom stated that he did bid the item by the cubic
yard and not by the ton. The bid tabulation and
contract vouchers will be updated to reflect the cubic
yard quantity unit versus the ton quantity unit.

The meeting began with Bruce Loney summarizing his meeting with
Jim Rudd of Twin City Testing Company regarding the tire chips.
Jim had stated that the 3" size chips were acceptable to him for
use on the entire embankment. These chips are to be placed in
small lifts and the placement of the chips should stop when the
chips are within 6" - 8" of subgrade elevation. At this point,
the settlement plates and its consolidation information will be
evaluated along with deflection testing of the tire chips to
better determine when the lightweight fill area will be

Larry Anderson stated that the 3" chips are acceptable to the
City and that the initial tire chips had too much steel exposed
to meet specifications. A letter was requested by Tom Ryan on
the acceptability of the 3" size chips. Bruce will ask Jim Rudd
for a letter and provide Tom a copy.
Larry then stated his concern for compaction of the tire chips.
No tire placement can be done without notification of the work
being done. Compaction is to be done in thin lifts and a
patterned driving of equipment is to be utilized in achieving
compaction. Dennis stated that a D4 dozer is bein~ utilized
currently for placement and compaction and other equlpment such
as a D8 dozer can be used in the upper lifts to consolidate the
embankment prior to fabric.
Additional wood chips for the bottom of the lightweight fill area
was discussed next. It was estimated that 200 C.Y. of loose
volume wood chips had been delivered and that a total of 300 C.Y.
additional will be needed to cover the area to the 945.0
elevation. Larry stated that the wood chips should be delivered
as soon as possible to expedite the project schedule.

Grading of street improvements was discussed next. Dennis felt
he could have a crew on the site by a week from Wednesday or
Thursday. Temporary drainage on Toronto Avenue needs to be
provided and Tom will provide a price for a temporary ditch or
for a pump with a temporary power connection. other work items
were discussed such as having Minnegasco place their gas main
along Duluth Avenue and Tower street now or wait until Brown &
Cris has removed any stockpiles in that area. Also the
possibility of placing Duluth Avenue sidewalk was discussed.
Gary stated that he did not want this area disturbed unless the
sidewalk and restoration could be done totally this year. Tom
stated that he felt that the work slated for this year can still
be completed but not for the October 1, 1990 completion date.
The completion date and a possible extension was discussed next.
Larry asked Tom when he could finish the work this year. Tom
stated that by October 15, 1990, they could be sUbstantially
completed with the work slated for this year. It was generally
agreed to extend the contract completion date to October 15, 1990
due to the addition of wood chips and supply problems with the
tire chips. Tom promised to have a schedule for this project by
this week based on this meeting's information.
Meeting was adjourned,
Minutes were submitted by:

RE: PROJECT 90-12, TOWER STREET AND TORONTO AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS
Dear Tom:
This letter is in response to your letters dated August 20,
and August 23, 1990 and also in regard to the completion
extension request on the above referenced project. In
letter of August 23, 1990, you mentioned specific areas of
and will be addressed as follows:
No. 1 - Rubber Tire Chips
The shredded tire borrow is a contract item with stipulated
specifications on the material. The initial material
delivered to the site had excess metal ~articles not
contained within a rubber segment. The speclfication that
referred to the amount of metal particles allowed, was typed
in capital letters on page S.P. 27 of the specifications.
Jim Rudd, of Twin City Testing, had indicated at the
Preconstruct ion Meeting that he would like to check the tire
chip supply, particularly the smaller size tire chips prior
to use. Mr. Rudd did check the 3" tire chips in Savage and
approved their use based on size observed. The tire chips
that were from the Preston, Minnesota and Savage, Minnesota
stockpiles, upon their delivery had considerable, steel
fragments exposed than allowed by the specifications. The
excessive metal fragments of the tire chips that were
delivered was detected and made known to your foreman
immediately by City Inspector, Doug Hartman and Twin City
Testing Field Engineer, Steve Olson. City Engineer, Larry
Anderson and Jim Rudd also a9'reed that the tire chips had
excessive steel fragments WhlCh were are not acceptable per
the specifications. This assessment of the delivered
1990
date
your
delay

material was not disputed by the supplier or yourself.
stockpile that Mr. Rudd had approved earlier in Savage
some of the loads from Preston was allowed to be placed
the boulevard area only and not in the roadbed areas.
As per the General Conditions, paragraph 6.4, the Contractor
shall furnish and assume full responsibility for all
materials for the completion of the work. As mentioned
previously, the tire chips are a contract material item to be
supplied and placed by the Contractor. The City nor any of
its representatives caused the delay in supplying the tires.
The
and
in
No. 2 - waitinq Period After Chips Are Placed
The waiting period referred to is mentioned on page S.P. 28
of the specifications and was also mentiond at the
Preconstruct ion Meeting. The Soils Engineer will evaluate
the settlement plate consolidation information and determine
when to place the Type 5 geotextile fabric and the remaining
fill materials. The Contractor shall be prepared to adjust
the construction schedule due to a consolidation period of
the lightweight fill embankment. A delay for completing the
lightweight fill embankment may be in order due to this
unknown time period; however, other areas of work slated for
completion this year can be completed.
No. 3 - No Drainaqe on Toronto Avenue
A temporary drainage facility will need to be installed to
allow for this street construction. The options mentioned at
the August 27, 1990 weekly meeting is for a drainage ditch to
drain the ~ipe on Toronto Avenue or for a pump installed at
CB/MH 12 wlth a tempory power connection. The City has
requested a price from you on these options. Extension of
the contract completion date for the time required to install
a temporary drainage system drainage system only is
warranted.
No. 4 - Power Cables Alonq Duluth Avenue
Telephone and cable T.V. have installed their lines along
the lightweight fill area. Northern States Power Company
has buried their lines on Toronto Avenue and removed the
poles in this area. Minnegasco has not installed their line
along Duluth Avenue as yet. During a conversation with Rick
Pilon, Design Engineer - Minnegasco, it was decided that they
will either install the line prior to the 9'rading work or
they will wait until the area is again avallable to them.
The utility companies have not caused any delay on this
project to date.
"
"
These areas of delay were discussed at the August 27, 1990 weekly
meeting along with the delay caused by the installation of wood
chips in the lightweight fill area. It was agreed upon at this
meeting to extend the contract to October 15, 1990 based on the
extra time needed to complete the lightweight fill embankment
including wood chip placement and for a temporary drainage system
on Toronto Avenue. This extension of time will be added to the
contract when Change Order No. 1 is processed for Council
approval.

447-4230.

Dear Bruce,
We regret to inform you that we will not be able to meet the October
1, 1990 completion date as specified on the above referenced project.
As you know, delays beyond our control have occurred that have caused
a suspension of work.
Below we have detailed the areas of delay:
No. 1 - Rubber Tire Chips
To date we do not have an acceptable chip. Maust Tire Recyclers
are working on it. However, it will take them at least 10 days
to deliver a sufficient quantity of chips to the project once
they start production.
No. 2 - Waiting Period After Chips Are Placed
The soils engineer is talking about a waiting period after the
rubber chips are placed. This would delay our construction process
an unknown amount of time.
No. 3 - No Drainage on Toronto Ave.
The storm sewer system we installed on Toronto Ave. has no outlet.
this is not our responsibility. The adjacent project has been
delayed. In fact, they were supposed to construct the down stream
outlet piping prior to our work. As a result, our project will
be flooded every time it rains. The would be a big mess and make
it impossible for us to build a "good" street.
No. 4 - Power Cables Along Duluth Ave.
The telephone and electric companies are acting very slow to get
their work done.

It is impossible for us to forecast what these delays will do to
the scheduling of work on this project, since we do not have any idea
what the length of each delay really is. In the same view, you have asked
for a bar chart. With these circumstances involved, it would be impossible
for us to give you any kind of a schedule.
Thank you.

RE: Tower St. & Toronto Ave.

Brown & Cris, Inc. Job #803
Dear Bruce,
We have received supplemental agreement no. 1 on the above referenced
project. All appears to be in order and we intend to sign it with the
following exceptions.
#1 The quantity of woodchips ordered to date is 300 C.Y., not 250
C.Y. We assume that we will be paid for 300 C.Y., at least.
#2 Because of the timing required to have the chips delivered, we
request an extension to the completion dates previously stated
in the contract. We estimate that 10 working days will be lost
before enough chips are on site.
With regard to other matters on this project:
A. It is our understanding that we will receive payment for the
hydrant relocates even though we did not exactly relocate them,
but rather we did some related work.
B. Because of delays associated with finding the proper rubber tire
chips, we request an extension to the completion date established
in the contract documents. Initially we estimate that we will
be delayed about 2 weeks. We will give you an exact extension
request once we know when all the chips will be available.
Thank you.

Dear Bruce,
In response to your letter dated August 15, 1990, it is still our
position that the suspension of work due to unacceptable tire ships is
not Brown & Cris, Inc's responsibility. We feel we did everything possible
including prior approval from the soils engineer who said the chips would
be acceptable.
Our first indication that there was a problem occurred when the first
load of chips arrived on site and work was suspended at that time. This
came as a total surprise to us. As stated earlier, we had every indication
that the chips were acceptable. We had no prior warning of this suspension
in order to line up an alternate source to continue work at that time.
In the meantime, the chips supplied by Maust Tire Recyclers have
been approved and we can continue work on this project. We again however,
reiterate our position that the project delay is not the responsibility
of Brown & Cris, Inc. Please reconsider your position in the matter and
advise.
Thank you.

Dear Tom:
This letter is in regards to your memo on the above referenced
project delay.
The work suspension on our project has been due to the shredded
tire borrow being out of contract specification, particularly the

the tire sections. The su~plier, Maust Tire Recyclers, has
stated that additional steps wlll be taken to produce the desired
material.
The work progress on the lightweight fill area, and other areas
of the project will be impacted until an acceptable material can
\j'e produced. It is the responsibility of the contractor to
~~ suppl~ and place acceptable material. Safety and protection of
materlals placed on the site is the responsibility of the
ontractor per the General Conditions of the contract.

Work.
The first items in the submission of the following required
submittals:
Bar Chart Schedule indicating the
completion dates of the various stages
This schedule was to be submitted

The second item pertains to changes in the work on this project.
As mentioned in the Preconstruct ion Meeting, three areas of work
will require changes, additions, and deletions. The three areas
are as follows:
1. Addition of wood chips to the lightweight fill section.
2. Extra watermain and sanitary sewer work on Tower street
and Toronto Avenue.
3. Electrical street lighting work.
On Item #1, the wood chips are being added to meet the Prior
Lake/Spring Lake Watershed District's concern over the use of
tire chips. Specifications on the size and use of wood chips are
enclosed with this letter. The wood chips will be used to fill
holes or depressions in the lightweight fill embankment area
prior to placing the geotextile fabric. The wood chips will also
be placed on the lowest elevation of the lightweight fill
embankment to keep the tire chips above the pond elevation. It
is estimated that 175 cubic yards of loose volume is needed for
filling depressions and for placing a 12" larer on the bottom of
the embankment. A Supplemental Agreement lS necessary to amend
the contract for this particular item. An estimated cost for
this work must be ~rovided and Supplement Agreement signed by the
Contractor and Englneer.
The second item is for the watermain and sanitarr sewer. (A
detailed drawing and instructions are enclosed for thls work). A
total cost estimate for the work should be prepared and submitted
for approval. Items such as relocate hydrant, 6" PVC (Schedule
40) sanitary sewer service, connect to existing sewermain, and 6"
D.I.P. Class 52 watermain have contract unit prices. other items
of work that are not covered by unit prices should be itemized in
your cost estimate.
The third item is for changes in the electrical light system
work. Per a conversation with the electrical engineer and the
State Electrical Inspector, Terry Krominga, the Schedule 80 PVC
conduit in the lightweight fill can be buried on top of the upper
geotextile fabric approximately 18 inches below the surface which
would meet electrical code.
Another area of discussion from the preconstruct ion meeting was
the spread footing foundation for the light poles in the
lightweight fill area. A letter is attached from the structural
engineer on the acceptability of using a Type 1 pole footing
versus a Type 2 pole footing. One of the conditions for a Type 1
is for the upper 3' of backfill material be compacted non-swamp
deposit soils. In the lightweight fill section, these deposits
would be 18 inches of topsoil and clay soil on top of tire chips.
Per a conversation with Jim Rudd of Twin City Testing, the spread
footing foundation would be more desirable than the Type 1
footing based on the conditions recommended by RCM's structural
engineer. No changes in the electrical work will be authorized
until the electrical light system cost breakdown is submitted for
my review.
If you have questions concerning this letter and the enclosures,
please contact me at city Hall.
Sincerely,

A wood chi~ embankment shall be constructed in
accordance wlth the details shown on the Plans, the
applicable ~rovisions of Mn/DOT 2105 and the following:
The wood ChlpS shall be used for leveling the cleared
area for the lightweight fill prior to placing the MnDOT
3733, T~pe 3, Geotextile and on the bottom of the
lightwelght fill embankment up to elevation as
determined by the Engineer. An estimated quantity of
175 cubic yards, loose volume, is needed for the
lightweight fill embankment.
Wood chips shall be cut from sound live trees of any
species and may be either "clean chips" cut from
debarked tree trunks or "total tree chips" cut from
whole trees (including bark and branches but exc~u~ing
leaves) may be used. The chips shall have a mlnlmum
nominal length of 3/4 inches, width of 1/2 inch or more
and a maximum fiber length of 6 inches. Total tree
chips includin9' bark and branches and leaves can be used
with the additlonal requirement that the compaction of
the wood chip layer be acceptable to the soils engineer.
Wood chip embankment shall be constructed as shown in
the Ty~ical Section in the Plans and shall be placed in
ap~roxlmately one foot layer compacted only by patterned
drlving of construction equipment.
The exposed surfaces of the lightweight fill embankment
shall be provided with a one foot minimum cover of
plastic soils to seal the chips from air.
Transition tapers of soil shall be provided at both ends
of the section.
To facilitate maximum consolidation of embankment
materials prior to the surfacing of shoulders, the
Contractor shall construct the embankment through the
swamp sections as soon as possible after construction
operations have commenced.
To prevent uneven loading on embankment widening over
the swamp, both sides of the embankment shall proceed at
approximately the same time.
Wood chips will be measured by loose volumes determined
by vehicular measure at the point of delivery to the
job site.
Payment will be made under Item No. 0105.625
Ch1ps, L.V.) at the Contract bid price per cubic
which price shall be compensation in full for all
relative to the furnishing and placing the wood
embankment complete in place as specified.

5.) utilities:
Representatives from Northern States Power, Star Cablevision,
scott-Rice Telephone Company, and Minnegasco were present to
discuss utility concerns. All utility companies acknowledged
that they have received a set of plans for this ~roject. The
following utility work was discussed pertainlng to this
project:
1. Northern States Power will be burying the overhead power
lines in the project area per Jack Laughridge and will
work with the Contractor to avoid conflicts. Tom Ryan
stated that he would prefer the electrical company come
in as soon as possible to do the work. Doug Hartman
will meet Jack on Wednesday to go over the project in
detail and the city will provide the necessary staking
to assist the electrical line placement. Jack stated
that they would begin in about two weeks.
2. Minnegasco will be placing a new gas main along Duluth
Avenue and new Tower street proceeding west to CSAH 23.
Bruce Loney stated that the utilitr companies should not
place any lines within the lightwelght fill area and to
avoid the future landscape tree plantings as shown on
Plan Sheet No. 13. Minnegasco would not start their
work for at least thirty (30) days from today.
3. Star Cablevision has an existing cable which is in the
lightweight fill area and would like to place a new
cable in the same trench as the scott-Rice Telephone
cable and then would abandon the old line.
4. scott-Rice Telephone Company is planning to install a
new and larger cable along Duluth Avenue and Tower
Street to replace an existing cable. utility
installation may start by August 15, 1990 and Star
Cablevision would like to go ~ogether with the telephone
on their cable placement.
Bruce stated that anr utility work will require an
approved utility perm1t from the city of Prior Lake and
that they shall be responsible ,for restoring the area
that is disturbed by their operations.
6.) Traffic
street access for emergency vehicles is to be maintained at
all times during construction. Closing of streets or a
portion of a street must have the City Engineer's approval
and be signed per the MnDOT Uniform. Traffic Control Manual
Standards. A traffic control plan should be submitted by
Brown & cris, Inc. for the closing of Vine Street with
consideration of the street being closed for possibly over
the winter.
7.) Easements
Not all of the easements have been obtained. Bruce
that most of the property owners have indicated that
would sign. Bruce stated he will pursue these easements
week and get back to Tom Ryan as to their status.
stated
they
this
8.) Permits
Bruce Loney stated that MnDOT State Aid approval has been
verbally given. The Prior Lake/Spring Lake Watershed
District permit and the MnDOT utilitr permit for working in
the right-of-way have both been recelved.
9. Safety,
The contractor's Safety Officer will be Greg Brown and Bruce
Loney will be the city's Safety Officer.
10.)General Conditions and Supplementary Conditions
stakes for the project are to be provided by the Contractor
and a total of 1000 - 12" hub stakes (pointed) and 1000 - 32"
lath (pointed) was requested by Doug Hartman of the City.
Tom Ryan stated that he would like to set up an account with
Quality Wood Products of Shakopee and have the surve~ors pick
up stakes as necessary and charge them to Brown & Crls, Inc.
It was agreed upon to provide stakes in this manner.
A weekly meeting time was discussed and a time and date will
be determined later which will fit the schedules of the main
participants.
11.)Special provisions
Discussion on the addition of wood chips to the bottom of the
li~htweight fill was next. Jim Rudd explained that the wood
ChlpS can be used on the bottom for leveling of holes prior
to placing the Type 3 geotextile and up to elevation 945.50
as requested by the Prior Lake/Spring Lake Watershed
District. Jim further explained that the settlement plates
should be placed on the top of the wood chip layer. The wood
chips should be placed in one foot lifts and compacted by
patterned driving of equipment and existing trees on the job
site can be used in making the wood chips. Jim then
explained that the tire chips should be ~laced in one foot
lifts and compacted by patterned, drivlng of construction
equipment such as a dozer. Twin City Testing will have a
soils engineer on the site to observe the construction of the
lightweight fill embankment and will be able to assist the
Contractor on when to proceed with each step. It was agreed
upon that the Contractor must receive approval from the soils
engineer on when the top geotextile fabric over the
li9'htweight fill could be placed. A ~eriod of time for
prlmary consolidation may be needed prlor to placing the
fabric. Jim Rudd stated that he would like to check the tire
chip supply and felt that the smaller size chips would
compact better and should be placed in the upper layer of the
tire chip embankment.
With the addition of wood chips on the bottom, Jim Rudd felt
that the perforated pipe by CB1 and CB2 should be eliminated
and replaced with re9'ular 15" RCP so as to prevent air from
entering the wood Chlp layer and possible rotting of the
wood. Discussion continued on the lightweight fill section
with Jim Rudd stating that a total of four settlement plates
will be installed located in the deepest peat deposit areas
and the plates could be MnDOT standard with the base and top
of pipe elevations determined before placing fill. Locations
of settlement plates will be determined in the field. After
the lightweight fill section has been completed and approved,
the type 5 geotextile fabric can be placed and the clay soil
should be placed on the areas outside the roadbed. An
aggregate base test strip over a portion of the lightweight
fill should be constructed and evaluated before placing the
aggre9'ate base over the entire lightweight fill area. MnDOT
Materlals Division has indicated that they would like to do
subgrade strength testing on the lightweight fill area with
the "Road Rater" tester. Bruce stated that the soil borings
indicate the material on Tower street consists of a lean clay
suitable for the clay cap on the lightweight fill section.
street lighting work within the lightweight fill area was
discussed next. Bruce stated that there are two light poles
within the lightweight fill section and these should be
constructed prior to completing the section rather than
disturbing the fabric and tire chips later upon excavating.
It was agreed that a Type 1 footing could be used on Duluth
Avenue and Bruce was to check with the electrical engineer if
a longer caisson could be used versus a spread footing for
the pole shown at station 9 + 50 Lt. - Tower street. Bruce
was to check on whether the electrical conduit could be
placed on to~ of the T~pe 5 geotextile fabric versus the
specified thlrty (30) lnches below grade which would be in
the tire section. Doug Hartman asked if there was a fire
hazard associated with placin9' a ground rod in the tire chip
section. Bruce would check wlth the electrical engineer on
this item. Tom Ryan asked if the City could survey the
clearing and grubbing limits on the job so his subcontractor
could possibly start by Friday.
The meeting was then adjourned.

RE: TOWER STREET, TORONTO AVENUE AND DULUTH AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS
PROJECT NO. 90-12
<SAL>:
The purpose of this letter is to inform you that the plans for
the above referenced streets and project have been completed and
are available for you to review in the Public Works offices at
Prior Lake City Hall. Plan approval for this pro~ect has been
scheduled for June 18, 1990 at the City Council meetlng. If the
plans are approved, an advertisement for bids will be placed in
the Construction Bulletin and the Prior Lake American for a bid
opening scheduled on July 16, 1990.
The City is using a combination of Municipal State Aid funds and
special assessments to pay for the proposed improvements. The
plans will need approval from the Minnesota Department of
Transportation Office of State Aid before the City can enter into
a contract for the construction work. Construction of the
proposed improvements could commence on or about August 15, 1990
depending on when State Aid approval is given.
It is intended to have the improvements on the easterly 250 feet
portion of Tower Street, the concrete sidewalk on Duluth Avenue
from existing Tower Street to Trunk Highway 13 and the
improvments on Toronto Avenue to be completed in the construction
season of 1990. The remaining portion of Tower Street and Duluth
Avenue will be graded in the 1990 construction season with the
street paving, sidewalk and lighting improvements completed in
the 1991 construction season. This area has several feet of peat
deposits which will require a period of time for the roadway
embankment to stabilize before the street can be completed.
4629 Dakota 51. 5.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372 / Ph. (612) 447-4230 1 Fax (612) 447-4245
Existing Tower street will remain open to traffic until the new
Tower street is completed and is ready for traffic. To construct
the embankment on Tower street and Duluth Avenue over the peat
deposit, it will be necessary to close the existing gravel
surfaced Vine street from CSAH 23 to existing Tower street. Vine
street will be reopened when the new Tower street is completed
and ready for traffic.
If you have any questions concerning the plans prior to the City
Council Meeting, please contact Bruce Loney at 447-4230.

RE: Use of Tire Derived Fuel (J.ur) as a Lightweight Fill
Dear Mr. IDney:
The following is a xesponse to your May 22, 1990 request for aW.l..vval to use 'IDP
as a lightweight subgrade road construction material for the City of Prior Lake
project.
The Mirmesota Pollution Control Agercy (MPCA) has reviewed the City of Prior
Lake J:'...v}:"-'sal and based on available infoxmation will not negatively inpact the
envL.vllluo::ut if the following guidelines are followed:
1. 'IDP is used only above water table;
2. M3asures are taken to insure 'IDP is not exposed; and
, 3. M3asures are taken to minimize water infiltration on driving
surface of road and the side slope.
The J:o'.l..v!:^"sal outlined for the City of Prior Lake project does ..oe..::.L all of above
listed criteria and thexefoxe the use of 'IDP for the City of Prior Lake project
is acceptable.
If you have any questions concerning this aJ:'J:o'.l..vval please contact Andrew Ronchak
of my staff at 296-8411 or ~elf at 296-5897.

RE: PROJECT #90-12
TORONTO AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS
Dear Mr. Boderman:
This letter is a follow-up from the March 30, 1990 Informational
Meeting on the above referenced project. At that meeting, it was
suggested to place temporary improvements on Toronto Avenue
between Priordale Mall and Hollywood Inn from T.H. 13 south to
the Sorka property line until the "Ring Road" from Toronto Avenue
to Franklin Trail is constructed.
Enclosed, are two (2) blueline drawings to show the temporary
improvements. The purple area is the area to receive a
bituminous overlay and the yellow area will receive a 6" high
bituminous shoe form curb to delineate the adjacent parking areas
from the street pavement.
The cost of these improvements are estimated to be $13,
which would be 100% assessed to the Priordale Mall and Holl
Inn properties. The previous assessment amounts f th
priordale Mall and Hollywood Inn properties for street, sidewalks
and lighting improvements is estimated to be as follows:
IMPROVEMENT TYPE
STREET
SIDEWALK
LIGHTING
ESTIMATED ASSESSMENT
$75,700.00
$12,300.00
$11,800.00

These costs were determined using the assessment rates from the
February 20, 1990 Feasibility study and the estimated assessment
frontage for both properties. The total assessment amount for
the permanent improvements for the entire Priordale Mall parcel
and Hollywood Inn parcel would be $99,800.00.
The assessment amounts for the Priordale Mall and Hollywood Inn
properties if the temporary improvements are installed between
the Priordale Mall and Hollywood In~. and for the permanent
improvements on the south 230 feet of the Priordale Mall property
is estimated to be as follows:
STREET
SIDEWALK
LIGHTING
ESTIMATED ASSESSMENT
$34,200.00
$ 2,700.00
$ 2d500.00
IMPROVEMENT TYPE
Total assessment amount for both properties on the temporary
improvements and permanent improvements is estimated to be
$39,500.00.
