Re: Historic Vermillion St. Retaining Walls
Vermillion St. Wall Repair
There are eight properties requiring some form of wall repair and the City's share
of the historic wall reconstruction is about $528,000. The wall repair costs for each of
the eight properties ranges from $3,000 to $370,000. All of the eight properties are
included in the proposed 2008 North Vermillion St. area street and utility improvement
project, which also includes curb and gutter and paving for those alleys with historic
walls. These eight properties face assessments ranging from $2,000 to $9,900 for the
City's street improvement project.
Staff is proposing to fund the entire cost of the wall repair cost through bonding
as part of the 2008 North Vermillion St. area construction improvement bond for the
following reasons:
1. When new retaining walls are constructed as part of the City's annual
improvement program, property owners do not incur an additional
assessment because a wall was constructed in front of their property.
2. The City needs the eight property owners to grant temporary easements to
the City so that the walls can be repaired.
3. Once the walls are repaired, the City will turn the future maintenance
responsibility back to the homeowners. This is similar to the LeDuc
Mansion funding from the MN Historical Society; $1 million in
restoration funding was granted under agreement that all future
maintenance and restoration costs would be a local responsibility.
4. These historic walls are an important City amenity that should be
preserved. Failure to receive temporary construction easements from all
eight properties may result in sections of the wall continuing to deteriorate
and fail.
5. If the wall repair cost were assessed, the resulting assessment burden
against some of the eight properties maybe extremely high.
I have enclosed files showing the eight properties involved and the associated
wall repair improvement costs, and a map of the proposed 2008 North Vermillion area
improvement project. I have also enclosed a file showing various wall repair assessment
options, illustrating the amount of assessments these eight properties would face
depending upon what percentage of the wall repair would be assessed.
