Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT JUNE 26, 2006 5P CRAIG ELDRED, STREET AND UTILITIES SUPERVISOR CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS AND AUTHORIZING ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS FOR STREET OVERLAYS AS IDENTIFIED IN THE 2006 - 2010 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM AND BITUMINOUS IMPROVEMENTS TO HASTINGS AVENUE NORTH OF DAKOTA STREET Introduction The purpose of this agenda item is to approve the plans and specifications and authorize the advertisement of bids for street overlays identified in the 2006 - 2010 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and bituminous improvements to Hastings Avenue north of Dakota Street. Historv Each year the City Council adopts the CIP which involves funding for various improvement projects. To ensure that the Council is aware of and supportive of our street maintenance, staff is seeking approval of the plans and specifications and seeking authority to advertise for bids to construct street overlays in and around the City. In addition to the overlays, staff is asking authorization to install a bituminous surface on Hastings Avenue north of Dakota Street to coincide with storm drainage improvements completed last fall to protect erosion of Hastings Avenue onto private property. This erosion issue has been raised by property owners in this area in past years. Current Circumstances The following street overlays have been identified by staff for construction in 2006: Route Description Basswood Circle Elm Avenue to end Basswood Circle Walnut Avenue to Elm Avenue Bay Avenue Willow Beach St. to Willow Beach Trl Elm Avenue 170tn to Willow Beach Trl Walnut Avenue 170m to Basswood Circle Willow Beach Street Willow Beach Trl to Bav Avenue Hastings Avenue North of Dakota Street Staff utilizes a pavement management system for rating the condition of streets throughout the City. Staff then uses this system as a tool when identifying areas for maintenance and repair. R:\Agenda Reports\June 26 2006\street overlays & hastings av ImpiOvements agenda. DOC www.cityofpriorlake.com Phone 952.447.4230 / Fax 952.447.4245 Conclusion Similar to last year, City staff is recommending constructing street overlays within the City. The list of streets provided will conclude the Willows area and provide an excellent wear surface for 10 to 15 years. The improvements on Hastings Avenue from its present gravel condition would provide for improvements for proper drainage and allow staff to maintain the area through all seasons. Continued maintenance of our City streets will reduce the need for costly reconstruction in the near future, therefore reducing costs overall. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Funds for these projects will be drawn from the Street Operating Fund. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve a resolution approving plans and specifications, and authorizing the advertisement for bids for the selected street overlays and improvements to Hastings Avenue. 2. Table this agenda item for a specific reason. 3. Deny this agenda item for a specific reason and provide staff with direction. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Alternative # 1.
