<br /> <br />Feasibility Report Page 17 <br />2021 PMP Street and Utility Improvements <br />City Project Number PW 21-0100 <br />8. FEASIBILITY, NECESSITY AND COST EFFECTIVENESS <br />The improvements proposed in this study are necessary to continue safe and reliable street and <br />utility services. The reconstruction of streets provides the City with a cost -effective means of <br />continuing the City’s street improvement efforts and ensuring an adequate means of <br />transportation for residents. The project will allow for the correction of existing drainage <br />problems by increasing the cross-sectional crown and improving the conveyance of runoff with <br />concrete curb and gutter. <br /> <br />These improvements will address the increasing costs for patching and maintaining highly <br />deteriorated street pavement within the City. Proposed water main improvements will provide <br />for an orderly replacement of water distribution system assets as the water system ages over time. <br /> <br />The proposed improvements constitute a project large enough to ensure a competitive bidding <br />environment, economy of scale, and are deemed to be cost-effective. Based on the information <br />contained within this report, the proposed improvements as described can be considered <br />necessary, cost-effective, and feasible from an engineering standpoint. <br /> <br /> <br />
