" . . . ~ It is proposed to be an urban section with concrete curb and gutter, storm sewer system, bituminous roadway. All areas that are disturbed with construction will be topsoiled and sodded. I believe those are the major features of the project. In the course of the project, we have specifically asked, through a proposed agreement with the City, that 75% of the cost of the concrete curb and gutter, except those needed for medians, that are constructed within the City, be paid for by the City, that any storm water contribution from outside the roadway which creates an additional cost to the storm sewer system being constructed in the roadway, be participated in by the municipality. In the case of Arden Hills, I believe that that would be pretty much limited to the very south end of the project, south of Victoria. As the County ~oad and bridge budget for detached path construction is limited to $20,000 for the year 1983, we have proposed that that limit be assigned to this project.and the remaining cost be split evenly between the community of Arden Hills and 5horeview. Upon completion of the construction, the path system will be the ownership and operation of the community - that is, the County wishes to see the paths con- structed for pedestrian facilities off the roadway - but we don't have ordinances and things that govern that type of facilities. Also, the storm sewer system, when completed - ~ the County will maintain the catch basins and leads - that is, the part that physically drains the roadway- and the trunk line sewer which carries the main body of the water or which may be extended into other areas in the future will become the property and responsibility of the City. i believe, your Honor, that that takes care of it. MAYOR WOODBURN: We'll be able to come back to any questions. At this time we'll ask Mr. Popovich to explain any financing that may be required. MR. POPOVICH: Mayor and members of the Council, the County is expecting the City to participate by paying 75% of the cost of the concrete curb and gutter and part of the cost of the bituminous walkway. When you break those costs down, as the engineer has, it's $34,500 for the curb and gutter and $7,700 for the walkway. You're expected to get the right~f-way and easements, which is estimated to be another $10,000 and then a share of the storm drainage facility is estimated at $5,000. That totals $57,200. There's a percentage added for contingency, legal - it's a contingency matter - of $8,800. 50 the total estimated cost is $66,000. While this is proceeding under a local improvement code, so that if the Council decided to assess, you could do so. Whether you want to or not depends on -as you well know - -3-
