Re: Resolution - Order Feasibility Studies for Proposed 2011 Street and
Utility Reconstruction Program
Council Action Requested:
Council is requested to adopt the enclosed resolution directing the Engineering
Department to prepare a feasibility study on proposed 2011 street and utility
reconstruction projects.
Background Information:
The Capital Improvement Program prepared by the Finance Department for the
2010 Budget shows bonding of $3 million for street and utility reconstruction
projects in 2011. The Engineering Department is proposing to reconstruct 14th St.
from Pine Street to Pleasant Drive and the following adjacent neighborhood
streets:
• Prairie Street between 14th and 15th Streets
• Hillside Street between 14th and 15th Streets
• Hillside Court
• View Court
• Sun Valley Lane
• Honeysuckle Lane
• Honeysuckle Court
• Blueberry Lane
• Blueberry Court
• Rosemary Court
• 12th Street from Westview Drive to McAuliffe School
Other streets proposed for reconstruction include:
• Bailey Street from 15th St to 17th St.
• McNamara Street from Bailey St. to 17th St.
• 15th Street from Tyler St. to Bailey St.
• 17th Street from Sumner St. to Ramsey St.
• Sumner St. from 17th St. to 18th St.
City 0 Hastlms + 101 FbuM Street East + H=ngr., MN 55033 -1955 * p:6614W2350 + f-651d437-443 + 41ww.rA.hastings mus
Additional streets proposed to be bid as alternates, to be constructed if bids come
in favorably:
• Florence St.
• 16th St. from Florence St. to Hwy 61
• 11th St. from Walgreens to Tyler Street
• Whispering Lane between Pleasant Drive and 4th St.
• Whispering Court
The streets proposed to be included in the reconstruction program have been
identified in poor shape through our road rating system, and grouped together to
provide some road condition uniformity in neighborhoods.
As part of the feasibility study, the streets will be surveyed to pick up topography
only, preliminary plans and cost estimates will be prepared, and an appraiser will
be hired to develop an estimate of benefit to properties proposed to be assessed
(benefit is the increase in property value directly attributable to the improved
project infrastructure).
Financial Impact:
The proposed project will meet or be below the $3 million bonding threshold
established by the Finance Department.
