This item is brought to you as a discussion and update item.
Thirty-four (34) residents on and around Dodd Boulevard submitted a
petition to have 132nd Street from Highway 3 to Dodd Boulevard and
Dodd Boulevard from 132nd Street to County Road 38 paved.
A cost estimate was prepared, which included the petitioned section of
road as well as Dodd Boulevard from County Road 38 north to 120th
Street. The total cost was divided equally among the benefitted
properties and a letter was mailed out to all parties informing them
of the project cost. The letter asked for an indication of support
for the project at the proposed costs. The majorityofthe responses
were negative. That indicated the lack of support for the project as
proposed.
There has been on-going discussions with some of the residents on what
can be done to eliminate the rough, dusty conditions that exist with
Dodd, a gravel road.
Our purpose at the Council meeting will be to discuss alternatives and
try to answer questions relating to each. There may be some residents
present to share in the discussion. After ourldiscussion we may
decide a "neighborhood" meeting is needed.
The goal is to reach a consensus with the affected property owners and
be in position to do a project next spring if that is the desired
conclusion.

Re: Petition to improve designated section of Dodd Rd.
We, the undersigned, do petition the City of Rosemount to pave
Dodd Rd. from County Road 38,South to 132nd Street and East to
State Highway 3, approximately 4000 feet.
We as the undersigned group of people pray that the City of
Rosemount and/or the County of Dakota pays for all requested
improvements. If assessments are to be considered, they should
be divided equally among the property owners on Dodd Rd.., south
to 132nd Street and east to State Highway 3, as well as those
on Dodd Ct., Charlston Way and Charlston Court, and 131st St.
in consideration that all owners need access Dodd Rd. and would
share equally in the benefits of the improvement''.
Comments:
Safety: Heavy dust prevents adequate!,visibility.
Washboard effect causes vehicle control
problems, as well as costly damage to vehicles.
No speed limit signs are posted on gravel roads.
Costs: Unstable bed requires constant maintenance
to no avail.
Property values.
Preserve: Dodd Rd. is one of the earliest roads in MN.
and thus has historical value.

In June of 1991 the City of Rosemount received apetition bearing
signatures of 35 property owners requesting the City to pave Dodd
Boulevard with bituminous surface. Reasons of safety, maintenance
costs,property values, and historical value of Dodd Boulevard were
cited as reasons for the request.
The process for ordering a Public Improvement Project includes:
1. City Council ordering a Feasibility Report to be prepared
by an Engineer.
2. City Council holding a- public hearing to receive the
Feasibility Report and order preparation of Plans and
Specifications.
3. City Council receiving Plans and Specifications and
authorizing Contractor Bids.
4. City Council receiving Contractor Bids and awarding
contract and ordering the project.
5. City Council certifying project amount and setting Public
Hearing date for Assessment Hearing.''
Prior to starting this process, City staff has p
of cost for the project to determine what the <
each property owner will be. This cost
preliminary reflecting only the cost of plac
(materials and labor). Assumptions were made
road could be used "as is" with no changes in w
vertical alignment, and no soil corrections.
The design used was a two lane 24 foot driving
pavedshouldersfor on road bicycle paths. T
surfacing 132nd Street from Highway 3 to Dodd
from 132nd Street to 120th Street. The total
this design is $436,672.87. The section of roi
to 120th Street was added with interest from x
section. This section will provide contiguous
on Dodd to the northern limit of Rosemount, el:
conditions and allow for more speed control.

The cost to each property owner was calculated with the assumption
that each of the 58 properties along Dodd (within the project
area), 132nd Street and contained in Rosemount Hills 2nd and 3rd
Addition would be assessed equally at one unit each. The cost to
each property based on all assumption made would be $7,528.84.
