ATTACHMENTS: Resolution; Map APPROVED BY: LJM RECOMMENDED ACTIONS: Motion to Adopt a Resolution Ordering the 2019 Street Improvement Project, City Project 2019-01 BACKGROUND The 2019 Street Improvement Project, City Project 2019-01, is proposed to consist of an asphalt mill and overlay on the majority of the streets (see attached Project Map). The geotechnical evaluation showed some project streets require more intense rehabilitation, therefore, full-depth reclamation is proposed on Dodd Boulevard and the southern section of Chippendale Avenue. An asphalt mill and overlay on Connemara Trail from Diamond Path to Shannon Parkway, 100 feet on both sides of the Connemara Trail bridge, and parking lots at the TH 3 Park-and-Ride and Fire Station #1 are also included in the project. These improvements will not be included in the MN Statute 429 Assessments as no properties have access off these streets, per the Rosemount Assessment Policy. Within the project limits, minor utility work as identified in the City’s utility records and rehabilitating pedestrian ramps to meet current ADA requirements is also included in the proposed improvements. On January 15, 2019 the Council approved a contract for engineering services with TKDA for the 2019 Street Improvement Project, City Project 2019-01. TKDA authored a report on the feasibility of this project. Detailed project information is included in the Feasibility Report available on file in the Engineering Department. The report found this project, as proposed, to be feasible, cost effective, and necessary. On March 19, 2019, the Council accepted the Feasibility Report and authorized preparation of plans and specification for the 2019 Street Improvement Project, City Project 2019-01. The Council also approved a resolution calling the Public Improvement Hearing on April 16, 2019, which is a necessary step under the Minnesota Statutes Chapter 429. On April 10, 2019, staff hosted an open house for property owners to address questions and comment regarding the project and the proposed assessment roll. 2 COSTS & FUNDING The Feasibility Report estimated the project cost at $2,411,000 as tabulated below. Table 2 has separated out the portions of the project that are not anticipated to be assessed. This project is scheduled in the 2019-2028 CIP. The estimated cost from the Feasibility Report is approximately 41% higher than the CIP estimate. Some of the cost increase is due to the change in scope of work on Dodd Boulevard and the southern portion of Chippendale Avenue. This additional cost will be funded by a combination of MSA and assessments. Other increased costs include adding the parking lot maintenance (to be paid with the general fund) and pedestrian improvements. The project is proposed to be funded by a combination of MN State-Aid funds, general funds, utility funds, and special assessments of benefitting properties. 3 Per the Rosemount Assessment Policy, the City pays for 65% of the street costs and 35% of the street costs are assessed to the benefitting properties. Benefitting properties with access (a driveway) on the project streets are included in the assessment roll. As the roadways proposed for improvement are collectors, many are wider than an average local road. Single-family homes are proposed to be assessed based on a 32-foot wide street section ($1,651.27/unit), multi-family are based on a 36-foot section ($18.06/foot of frontage), and commercial properties are assessed for the full width of the street ($20.44/foot of frontage). The calculations are included in the Feasibility Report. SCHEDULE Should the Council approve this resolution, the proposed project schedule is shown below. Items marked “CC” will require City Council approval in order to move forward.
