ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL—AUGUST 29, 2016 8 B. County Road D Improvements Acting Public Works Director Anderson stated the Presbyterian 1-lomes of Arden Hills entered in to an agreement in 2010 with the City of Arden Hills that obligated them to reconstruct County Road D, a municipal street on the City's corporate border with Roseville. Senior Housing Partners has prepared plans for this reconstruction. Acting Public Works Director Anderson explained engineering staff from both Arden Hills and Roseville have reviewed the plans and all comments have been addressed. Roseville City Council has elected to permanently close the connection between Wheeler Street and County Road D. The plans as prepared by Clark Engineering dated August 22, 2016, show this street closure as requested by the City of Roseville. The median in the driveway entrance to Johanna shores off of County Road D is shown to be removed as requested by the Lake Johanna Fire Department as the median does not accommodate fire truck access. Acting Public Works Director Anderson reported Senior Housing Partners has elected to cover the entire cost of the construction and contract for the work privately and plan to complete the work in the fall of 2016. Arden Hills and Roseville will be inspecting the construction jointly. The bituminous sidewalk along Lake Johanna Blvd is shown to be reconstructed and a new concrete sidewalk on the north side of County Road D is shown to be constructed as part of this work. Snow and Ice control on both of these sidewalks would be the responsibility of the property owner. Councilmember Holden asked if a stop sign could be installed for safety purposes. Acting Public Works Director Anderson stated a stop sign would be installed at County Road D. MOTION: Councilmember McClung moved and Councilmember Holmes seconded a motion to approve reconstruction plans for County Road D and Authorize Senior Housing Partners to contract for reconstruction. The motion carried {5_01. C. Accept Proposals for Bituminous Mill and Overlay of Shorewood Drive Acting Public Works Director Anderson stated the City Council discussed potential pavement maintenance projects and requested staff return with a recommendation on Shorewood Drive. This is the portion of the roadway not being reconstructed as part of the Johanna Shores Development. Acting Public Works Director Anderson indicated Public Works Staff discussed the possibility of having a contractor mill this street and Public Works staff pave it as was done on Thom Drive this year. He stated that this does not appear to be possible for a number of reasons that include the fact that seasonal employees returning to school has created a large need for full time employees to preform park maintenance activities, work on Lake Valentine Road catch basin repairs needs more crew hours devoted to this to complete the job, and use of Ramsey County vehicles for trucking and rolling has not been secured for this work.
