Several areas in the neighborhood experience street and yard flooding on a <br />regular basis and none of the neighborhood storm water runoff is routed through storm water <br />ponds prior to entering Lake Josephine or area wetlands. The streets identified in this report also <br />lack concrete curb and gutter and several have substandard widths which tend to hamper city <br />plowing efficiency and traffic flow on through streets such as Ingerson Road and Hamline <br />A venue. Most of the streets identified for improvement in this report have not had major work <br />done to them since the initial construction occurred in the late 1950's and early 1960's. <br /> <br />The 1999 Arden Hills Comprehensive Street Condition Assessment Report has ranked the <br />neighborhood at the top of the priority list for reconstruction for the reasons stated above. The <br />scope of work necessary to bring the entire neighborhood up to par relative to street condition, <br />standard widths, drainage and water quality criteria is quite large. The Council must evaluate the <br />relative importance of the proposed improvements with the associated cost and funding sources. <br /> <br />Project costs, as illustrated herein, are reasonable and representative of the proposed scope of <br />improvements. The project would require a distribution of funds from the nonassessable <br />roadway improvements fund. The proposed funding for the project includes advance funding <br />through the City's State Aid account. Any drawdown of the City State Aid account in 2000 will <br />have repercussions on future use of State Aid funds specifically for the planned improvements to <br />West Round Lake Road in 2002. The City's State Aid account is replenished at the rate of <br />approximately $200,000.00 per year from MnDOT. <br /> <br />Another possible option to reduce the overall project cost would be eliminating the <br />reconstruction of Hamline A venue. The reconstruction of Hamline A venue is desirable from the <br />"neighborhood approach" viewpoint, however its location of the edge of the neighborhood does <br />allow for its omission at this time to be less disruptive to the neighborhood than a centrally <br />located street such as Femwood Street. Hamline Avenue is a State Aid route with private <br />properties on the east side only therefor it would be wise to utilize State Aid funds to help offset <br />the funding imbalance resulting from the lack of private front footage. <br /> <br />The improvements outlined above are feasible and constructable assuming the proposed <br />assessment rate is acceptable to the Council and that the Council approves of utilizing the Storm <br />Water Utility Fund for the City's share of storm sewer and ponding costs not recovered through <br />State Aid funds and the potential grant from the Rice Creek Watershed District. <br /> <br />10 <br />
