<br /> I <br /> I. This a1temative is located along the same general alignment that has been proposed for the <br /> recreational trail connection between Highway 96 and 14th Street. A bituminous trail could <br /> I easily be constructed along the easement and provide excellent access for City maintenance staff <br /> as well as a recreational resource for the City. The impact on existing vegetation necessary for <br /> trail construction only (assuming sanitary sewer would not be constructed) in this corridor would <br /> I be significantly less (approximately 10 feet to 15 foot wide cut versus a 30 to 40 foot cut). <br /> Estimated construction costs included with this report assume dewatering of the trench. <br /> I Exhibits 4 and 5 illustrate the alignment and a typical section of the Alternative C. <br /> I Caoitalized Cost Calculation <br /> Costs associated with the gravity sewer main include the initial construction cost and periodic <br /> I maintenance costs over the 60 year design life. Maintenance costs include labor costs for City <br /> staff as well as costs for maintenance services which may be performed under contract in the <br /> future. Actual amounts utilized in the cost comparison are based upon current wage rates for <br /> I City maintenance personnel and current costs for contracted cleaning and sealing services. <br /> Maintenance costs assume that City staff will clean the sewer main once every five years and <br /> I that each cleaning would require 32 man-hours. Equipment costs for cleaning have not been <br /> included. It is assumed that the City would contract televising, cleaning and joint testing and <br /> I- sealing for the sewer main at year 30. <br /> Initial Construction Cost (1998 dollars) = $394,100.00 <br /> I City Maintenance Cost (1998 dollars) - expended at five year intervals <br /> City Staff 48 Hr@ $25.00IHr = $1,200.00 <br /> I Contract Maintenance Cost (1998 dollars) - expended at year 30 <br /> Televising and Cleaning 3,700 ft @ $l.OO/ft = $3,700.00. <br /> Joint Testing and Sealing 3,700 ft @ $2.50$/ft = $9.250.00. <br /> I Total Contract Maintenance Costs = $12,950.00 <br /> Capitalized Cost For Alternative C <br /> I Initial Construction Cost $394,100.00 <br /> I + City Maintenance Cost*(I(lI(l +i)^n1)* $1,200.00*(3.7149) <br /> +Contract Maintenance Cost*(l!(J +i)^n2)* $12.950.00*(.3012) <br /> Total Capitalized Cost For Alternativc C $402,458.42 <br /> I *Where i is assumed to be 4.0%, n1 = 5,10,15,20,25,35,40,45,50,55 representing the <br /> periodic City maintenance years and n2 = 30 representing the contract maintenance year. <br /> I <br /> ,e 6 <br /> I <br />
