Engineer Christoffersen referred the Council to the November 8, 1985 feasibility report and the cost estimate (the "Feasibility Report") for Hamline Avenue Improvement 85-3, Phase II (Improving Hamline Avenue between Floral Drive and State Trunk Highway No. 96), the "Improvement", and the attached drawing showing the components of the Improvement. He noted that the total cost of the Improvement is estimated to be $877,000.00. He recommended that the Improvement be constructed in two stages because of soil conditions--Stage 1 to take place in 1986 and Stage 2 in 1987, Stage 1 is to consist of the construction of a . 24' bituminous surface, with temporary aggregate shoulder on each side of Hamline Avenue. Stage 2 is to consist of the construction of curb and gutters, the remaining bituminous base and a final full 46' width wearing course, sidewalks and final restoration. . The Engineer explained that the finished section of the roadway would consist of a 46' wide bituminous street with concrete curb and gutters, a 5' wide concrete sidewalk along the west side of Hamline Avenue with a 5' to 7' separation between the sidewalk and street depending on power pole locations. He advised that the method of financing of the Improvement had not as yet been determined and that determination of the method of financing would occur at the assessment hearing. Engineer Christoffersen, in response to an inquiry by the Council, stated that the estimated cost of the pathway was $28,000.00. He explained that under M.S.A. guidelines if it is to be used as a walkway, it can be bituminous or concrete. He advised that concrete would be more expensive. Neither he nor Planner Miller were aware of any significant funding available for pathways at the present time.
