I ~ ~HILLS Ingerson Neighborhood Q&A Pavement Management Meeting (PMP) August 8, 2002; 7;00 p.m. Page 1 of 4 Comment: Does the 28' proposed road width include the outside of the curb. Yes. Comment: As a resident, I prefer surmountable curb VS. a barrier curb. Comment: How wide is the curb for a surmountable curb? 30' from outside to outside. Comment: What material would the driveway aprons be constructed oj? The apron will be made of concrete which will be about 5'. Within reason, the driveways will be matched up as exactly as possible. Comment: Why can't you do a flat roadway all the way? Water is not being collected then. The point of the curb is keep the water flowing along. Comment: What is the reasoningfor using narrower roads? The main reason was from community input. The consensus was to maintain the 28'. City staff and engineering staff felt that 24' was the narrowest that was acceptable on a low volume road. There is also less cost, disturbance, and run-off on those roads as well. Comment: Is the engineer consultant proposing to do work on Fernwood. The road is good and traffic is low. It is being proposed for work because the City is taking a neighborhood approach. The potential benefits would be to narrow it and slide it slightly to the east to create more green space in the channel area if that is desirable. Comment: Would trees be disturbed. Disturbance of trees is avoided as much as possible. Comment: Who would absorb the costs if you redid Fernwood. The residents on the road would be assessed as would everyone else who is located within the project area. Comment: What happens to people who live on corners as far as assessments. Would people be assessed twice. There is a formula developed so those residents living on comers do not get assessed twice.
