I .. It is important to note, however, that a single numerical rating should not alone dictate the maintenance to be done. The ratings are a tool, but experience on repairing streets with similar I conditions and input from Public Works staff are also valuable in determining the most cost- I effective means of repairing a street. I It is vital that an ongoing program of maintenance projects be funded in future City budgets to keep streets from deteriorating to the extent that reconstruction is the only alternative. An I ambitious project in 1991 of $152,300 completed a number of seal coat and overlay improvements. Reconstruction of North Snelling Avenue, also accomplished in 1991, had a I construction cost of $230,200. In 1992, reconstruction of Tiller Lane and recycling improvements on Round Lake Road and Dunlap Street were completed, with a total construction I cost of approximately $280,500. Assessments were levied in both 1991 and 1992 to subsidize City funds. This ongoing program of maintenance and reconstruction projects would be severely I curtailed without assessments to abutting property owners. . PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS The following streets are proposed to be improved in the 1993 Pavement Maintenance I Improvements Project. This project will consist of seal coating and overlay improvements. The rating for each street is provided. To provide anticipated cost savings in the bidding process, I streets have been grouped so the same maintenance activity takes place in a particular area of the City. This grouping, along with input from Public Works staff, accounts for the fact that - I some streets will have maintenance performed other than that indicated solely by their rating. Location maps showing the streets proposed for improvements are included as Exhibits 1 and I 2 in the appendix of this Feasibility Study. I I I r I FEAS--S20.039 -3- 52l}.()39-10
