<br /> ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - NOVEMBER 30,1998 DRAFT 14 <br /> I <br /> 4, With either alternative there was a need to construct a retaining wall. With the median . <br /> alternative the retaining wall would be slightly larger since the road will extend further <br /> into the bank, <br /> 5. The project includes estimated costs for modifications to the three TCAAP monitoring <br /> wellheads, permanent signage, striping and pavement markings which was more <br /> extensive than typical residential streets, clearing and grubbing and removal of existing <br /> culverts. <br /> 6. The project includes storm sewer catch-basins for the roadway as well as catch-basins for <br /> the commercial driveways. Overall pipe lengths are longer than typical residential streets <br /> and pipe diameters are greater to handle the larger flows from roadway and business <br /> runoff. <br /> Mr, Brown indicated that the last item he reviewed was enhancements, Primary cost estimates <br /> for potential enhancements include street lighting, landscape trees and shrubs, and an irrigation <br /> system, The irrigation system was assumed to provide irrigation to median areas only and <br /> therefor would be necessary if the median alternative was chosen, It was likely that the median <br /> altemative would require more landscaping due to the median areas. <br /> Councilmember Larson asked if the width of the six-foot sidewalk was standard, Mr, Brown <br /> explained that this width was common. Trails are usually 10-feet wide and there are cases when . <br /> sidewalks are wider but not narrower. <br /> Mayor Probst indicated he still had an issue with some of the numbers. He asked if the <br /> additional catch-basins would be in the median. Mr, Brown explained the catch-basins would be <br /> where the low end of the median occurs and pavement begins. The catch-basin was to catch any <br /> run-off before it gets out to the intersection, When a road was crowned there generally will not <br /> be water in the middle of the roadway, however, with the median alternative, water bnild up does <br /> occur. If a catch-basin was not used, snow can build up during the winter months and during the <br /> spring melt it can freeze and become hazardous. <br /> Mayor Probst asked Mr. Brown if he was proposing the overall cross sections be crowned, not <br /> the two roadways. Mr. Brown explained it could be designed with either the two roadways <br /> crowned or the overall crown. Either way there will be a need for catch-basins in the middle of <br /> the roadway. <br /> Mr. Post presented a revised funding source analysis, He referred to Attachment B of his Staff <br /> memo dated November 25, 1998 and explained the attachment reviews the assessment <br /> assumptions and includes relevant definitions and excerpts from the City's Assessment Policy. <br /> Mr, Post indicated the item he wished to point out was number four, CommerciallIndustrial <br /> Equivalent Assessment Rate, which reads "The commercial/industrial equivalent assessment rate <br /> shall be based upon 70% of the cost of street reconstruction for a typical commercial street . <br /> section," Mr. Post indicated this was in contrast to item five, The Municipal State-Aid Project- <br /> Reconstruction, which states "CommerciallIndustrial property abutting a Municipal State-Aid <br /> reconstruction project will be assessed all costs associated with reconstruction of the existing <br /> street to the City standards for commercial/industrial uses," <br />
