Local Street Reconstruction and / or Resurfacing Assessment Policy GITY OF R�SEMOUNT ' POLICY: Loca1 Street Reconstruction &/or Resurfacinq Assessment RECOMMENDED BY: Staff PRESENTED TO COUNCIL: ADOPTED BY COUNCIL: Purpose: The purpose of this policy is to provide a rational and equitabl,e method of assessing abutting and benefited property to help finance the reconstruction and resurfacing of local city streets. Backqround• Many of the city streets are approaching the end of their design life. The Public Works Department has completed a Pavement Management System for abo�t 30 miles of older streets. This consisted of taking an inventory of the streets and rating their condition. Streets with a rating of less than or equal to 8 . 0 (on a scale of 16=excellant and 1=poorj are candidates for complete reconstruction. Unless a street was a county road that was built entirely with county funds prior to 1980 and turned back to the city, then property along a street would have paid for its construction. Payment would have been made either of two ways. One way would have been through special assessments, if the city contracted to construct a street. The other way would have been with the purchase of a lot, if the developer installed streets under a private contract. Streets have service Iifes no different than vehicles or appliances, so they also have to be replaced when they wear out. State 1aw allows a 20 year life for bituminous surfaced streets. This is consistant with the actual service life of a bituminous surfaced street, which by industry standards is between 20 to 25 years. As a result, streets meeting or exceeding the 20 year life that need to be reconstructed can be financed using special assessments. In order to borrow money under the special assessment sectior� of State law - Chapter 429 - the minimum that must be assessed is 20% of the amount borrowed, Usually 25-30� of the amount borrowed is assessed to insure meeting the 20� minimum rule.. If streets need reconstruction prior to reaching their 20 year life span, then we could prorate the assessable cost. Rationale: RECONSTRUCTION � � ,t (1) Assessable eosts for reconstruction would include � all costs of reconstructing the local street to city standards. c:\word\strasstl .pc�l Local Street Reconstruction Assessment Policy Page 2 RESURFACING & MISC. REPAIR (1) Subgrade correction work shall be assessed because it should have been done at the time of initial construction. (2) 50� of the costs of miscellaneous preparatory work for the overlay and 50% of the overlay cost shall be assessed. (3) Pavement cut-outs shall be considered as maintenance and not assessed. (4) Replacement of sections of concrete curb & gutter shall be considered as maintenance and not assessed. summarv: (1) Assessment Area (a) The assessment area for local street reconstruction shall include all property abutting and taking access on the local street. {1) Assessment rate determination. {a) The assessment rate shall be based on a single family residential equivalent unit as shown in the follawing table: - RES Zonina Unit Units , SF detached (R-1,RR,RL) per platted lot 1 SF attached (R-2) per dwelling unit 1 MF residential (R-3 ,R-4) , per dwelling unit � Commercial (C-1, C-2 , C-3 , C-4) per acre {2 . 5x25) b0 Industrial (I�, IP,w1�) per acre (2 . 5x2 . 5) 6 Institutional (PUB) per acre (2 . 5x3 .0) . g For example, a development with 24 single family lots would have 24 RES units as would a development with 24 single family attached units, such as four-plexes. However, a d'evelopment with a 48 unit apartment building would receive 96 RES units. To determine RES units for commercial zoned property containing l0 acres one would multiply the 60 RES units/acre for commercial property by 10, which would result in 600 RES units. For agricultural zoned properties we would estimate the number of c:\word\strasstl .pol Locai Street Reconstruction Assessment Policy Page 3 units per acre based on the Comprehensi�e Guide Plan's underlying use. Agricultural (R-1) per acre (2 . 5) 2 . 5 Agricultural (RR) per acre (5 ac min. } 0. 2 Agricultural (RR) per acre (10 ac. min. ) 0. 1 Agricultural (R-2) per acre (4 . 0) 4 Agricultural (R-3) per acre (6. 0) 6 Agricultural (R-4) per acre (10. 0) 10 For example, agriculturally zoned property with a Comprehensive Guide Plan Use designated as Single Family detached will have its RES units determined based on 2 . 5 units per acre. If the underlying use is RR, then the RES units would be based on the minimum lat size, which whauld be either 5 or 10 acres depending upon the location. (2) Funding for street reconstruction and resurfacing that cannot be recovered through special assessments will have t4 come from general city revenues (ad velorem taxes) . Alternatives to the ad velorem tax would be an infrastructure tax, impact fee, or user charge. Currently impact fess or user eharges are not allowed by State law. (3) Assessments for homesteaded residential or agricultural property in amounts over $5, 000 shall be spread over 15 years, otherwise, the assessments shall be spread over 7 years. , � c:\word\strasstl.pol Local Street Reconstruction Assessm�nt Policy Page 4 RESIDENTIAL EQUIVALENT TABLE BASED ON TRIF GENERATION BY DWELLING TYPE Dwellincr Type Trips/DU DU Ac Trips,�Ac RES Single Family 10 2 . 5 25 1. 0 Multi-family (R-2) 6 6 3b 1. 4 Apartments (R-3 ,R-4) 6 10 60 2 . 4 Commerical x x 620 24 .8 Industrial x x 60 2 .4 Institutional x x 74 3 .0 All numbers derived from Transbortation and Traffic Handbook, 2nd Edition, by the Institute of Transportation Engineers. According to the table single family dwelling types generate 25 trips per acre, which for purposes of establishing RES units will equal 1.4. The remaining RES numbers were obtained by dividing the TripsjA�re number by 25. For the table in the policy text, these RES numbers were rounded to the nearest whole number.
