e C), construction of the connection of County Road C-2 between Hamline and Lexington. This 29 project is scheduled for construction in 2012. The project that staff is working on.- 30 0 Construct Road County Road C-2 connection between Griggs and Dunlap. To save some 3 1 of the trees in the right of way, staff is proposing to construct this street segment at a 28 32 foot width. No parking will be allowed in this segment. 33 0 Construct a 6 foot wide concrete sidewalk along the north side of County Road C-2 34 between Hamline and Lexington. 35 0 Provide parking bays on County Road C-2 between Hamline and Merrill. Currently, 36 parking is allowed on the north side of the street and not the south side of the street. Staff 37 proposes to move the north curb line 4 feet south to define on street parking bays and 38 narrow portions of the road. Specific locations will be identified on the preliminary 39 plans. No parking is allowed on streets narrower than 32 feet. 40 Streetscape.* Staff will look for streetscaping opportunities once the plans for the street 4 1 work are more fully developed. 42 The following work will be completed this fall. 43 0 Survey- complete. 44 0 Soil Borings- week of November 7 45 0 All way stop signs installed at Merrill and County Road C-2- complete. 46 Over the coming months, staff will be developing preliminary plans. These plans will be 47 available for review and comment at a public Open House meeting in January 2012. County 48 Road C2 will be financed by MSA Funds and bid with the PMP projects 49 3. Sanitary Sewer fining and replacement, watermain replacement: The majority of the city's sanitary sewer mains were constructed in the late 1950's and early 1960's, utilizing clay the pipe. Over time the joint materials have failed allowing root intrusion. The pipe is also susceptible to cracking and construction damage. The 2011 Capital Improvement Plan recommends funding for a sanitary sewer main lining program to extend the life of our sanitary sewers by 50 years or more. This technology essentially installs a new resin pipe inside the old clay the sewer main without digging up city streets, which results in minimal disruption to residents during construction. The liner pipe is inserted into the main through existing manholes and cured in place with a heat process. Any given segment is usually completed in one working day. Service line connections are reopened using a robotic cutter and remote cameras. During the process, existing flows are bypassed using pumps. This 60 technology has been proven over the past 20 years, and costs have become competitive with 6 1 open cut replacement. The City started doing this type of renovation on and annual basis in 62 2006 and will have an annual project for the foreseeable future to replace our aging sewer 63 infrastructure. This technology also prevents infiltration of groundwater into the system and 64 can be credited toward current and future inflow/ infiltration surcharge. The location of this 65 work varies and is spread throughout the City based on system priority. 66 We are also evaluating sanitary and storm sewer replacement needs in our pavement 67 replacement areas as well as utility infrastructure needs in County and State project areas. 68 Those replacements are being identified as the project plans are being developed and will be 69 communicated to the Council at a later date. '7 0 We are recommending replacement of the cast iron watermain as a part of the Rice Street '7 1 next phase reconstruction project and a segment of main on County Road B-2. We also '72 recommend replacement on two segments of city streets. These watermains were installed in '7 3 the early 1960's and has experienced several breaks. This is the lowest cost opportunity to Page 2 of 4
