HomeMy WebLinkAbout20070716 - VIII-A-2VIII~A-2 MEMO TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Nick Egger, City Engineer Date: July 11, 2007 Re: Resolution Ordering Feasibility Study for Proposed 2008 Improvement Program Enclosed for Council consideration is a resolution requesting a feasibility study for the following project proposed for construction in 2008: - Project 2008-1, 2008 Street & Utility Improvements PROTECT 2008-1~ 2008 IMPROVEMENTS This project would involve reconstructing 6`h, 7`s, 8`}', and 9`~ Streets west of Vernzillian Street (TH 61) to Spring Street, Eddy and Spring Streets between 6`'` Street and 10`h Street, 7`'' and 8~' Streets from Vermillion Street east to Bailly Street, and Sibley Street between 6a` Street and 8`~ Street. The alleys from Vermillion Street west to Eddy Street on the blocks between 6`~ and 8a' Streets, along with the alley between 7`i' and 8`h Street from Vermillion Street east to Sibley Street would also be proposed for reconstruction. All street segment reconstruction would also involve extensive utility replacement work. Another large component of this project proposal involves rehabilitation and reconstruction of many segments of the stone retaining walls that abut Vermillion Street, as well as segments that carry away from Vermillion east and west along City sidestreets and alleys. This project is being proposed slightly earlier than previously intended due to time sensitive sources of funding for the rehabilitation work on the stone retaining walls. The timing of the project would also allow for continuity of the design, construction, and construction oversight of the rehabilitation work as prescribed by the agreement between the City, MnDOT, and the design firm that the Council adopted in June. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED It is requested that the Council adopt the enclosed resolution ordering the feasibility study for Project 2008-1, the 2008 Street and Utility Improvements.
