CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PLANS
AND SPECIFICATIONS AND AUTHORIZING ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS
FOR THE 2008 STREET OVERLAY PROJECT
Introduction
The purpose of this agenda item is to seek City Council approval of the plans
and specifications and authorize the advertisement of bids for the 2008 street
overlay identified in the 2008 Prior Lake budget documents.
Historv
Each year the City Council adopts the city budget which involves funding for
street improvement projects. To ensure that the Council is aware of and sup-
portive of street maintenance, staff is seeking approval of the plans and speci-
fications and seeking authority to advertise for bids to complete street overlays
in and around the City.
Current Circumstances
Staff utilizes a pavement management system for rating the condition of
streets throughout the City. Staff then uses this system as a tool when identi-
fying areas for maintenance and repair.
The following street overlays have been identified for reconstruc-
tion/maintenance and repairs in 2008:
Route
Wilds Parkwa
Pine View Dr.
Wilds View
Whitetail Rid e
Conclusion
Similar to last year, City staff is recommending constructing street overlays
within the City. The 2008 overlay of Wilds Parkway, Pine View Drive, Wilds
View and Whitetail Ridge will be the second segment in a series of three years
of overlay improvements for the Wilds Parkway area. Continued maintenance
of our City streets will reduce the need for costly reconstruction in the near fu-
ture, therefore reducing costs overall.
Funds for these projects are budgeted and will be drawn from the Street De-
partment portion of the General Fund budget.
