(3 Stantec <br />To: Mike Ericson <br />From: Mark Statz <br />City of Centerville <br />Stantec Consulting <br />1880 Main Street <br />2335 Highway 36 W <br />Centerville, MN 55038 <br />St. Paul MN 55113 <br />File: Downtown Overlay <br />Date: April 7, 2017 <br />Reference: Downtown Overlay <br />Memo <br />At the direction of the City Council, we have researched the possibility of adding an overlay of <br />downtown streets to the existing 2017 Thin Overlay project. Streets included in this work would be: <br />• Sorel Street from '/z block west of Goiffon Road to Progress Road <br />• Goiffon Road from Sorel Street to Heritage Street <br />• Heritage Street from Centerville Road to about 3/ block east of Progress Road <br />• Progress Road from Main Street to Heritage Street <br />Due to issues with public bidding law, change orders exceeding 25% of the original contract are, <br />generally, not allowed. Our estimate of the cost for an overlay of the downtown area would <br />exceed that threshold. <br />Additionally, if the council wished to assess properties, in the downtown area, for the overlay, we <br />would need to go through the Chapter 429 process to include those homes and businesses on the <br />assessment roll. <br />Therefore, we see two options: <br />1. Begin the Chapter 429 Process and solicit separate bids for the downtown area. Construct <br />an overlay in the downtown this summer. Note that the contractor for the 2017 Thin Overlay <br />would be able to bid on this work. <br />2. Wait until 2018, and complete the downtown overlay with other overlay work. <br />I will be on hand at the City Council meeting to discuss these options in more detail. <br />Design with c:ommmity In mind <br />tb c:\users\tbender\oppdata\local\microsoft\windows\temporary intemet files\content.outlook\yl npna7e\downtown overlay memo 4.7.2D] 7.docx <br />37 <br />
