Major modification of the pavement reconstruction method 33 Change from a stabilized bituminous reclamation to a combination of road o 34 reconstruction and four inch mill and overlay. The change in design still resulted 35 in a 9 ton roadway, which meets Municipal State Aid standards, with an expected 36 pavement life of at least 30 years. 37 Change needed due to poor subgrade conditions that were found when portions of o 38 the pavement were dug up for utilities. 39 Additional storm sewer replacement to fix pipe that was in need of replacement. 40 Modifications to storm structures to accommodate utilities. 41 Although the project costs are higher than the original bid amount, the project costs are still 42 within reason for the type of road that was constructed. 43 For example, in 2012 the City reconstructed Dale Street using conventional methods. The overall 44 road cost for the road reconstruction was assessed in the same manner as Victoria Street for the 45 same type of road; 32 feet wide, 7 ton design. The assessed cost per foot for this project was 46 $38.25/LF in 2011 dollars. This equates to an approximate cost of $44/LF today. 47 The final costs of the modified pavement design for Victoria Street, although higher, are still less 48 than what a traditional reconstruct would have been. The original road design was for a 49 stabilized bituminous reclamation. If the subsoils had not become an issue this would have 50 resulted in a 30 year road with a significant cost savings to the City versus a more typical street 51 reconstruction. Had the street been constructed using conventional reconstruction methods, the 52 cost would have been around $44/LF for an approximately same design life. 53 The final project cost will be funded using the following funds; 54 źĭƷƚƩźğ {Ʒ RoadPathwayWatermainStorm WaterTotal Costs State Aid$ 1,420,119.93$ 26,065.82$ 1,446,185.75 Assessments$ 184,747.81$ 184,747.81 Water Fund$ 77,469.97$ 77,469.97 Storm Water Fund$ 603,630.86$ 603,630.86 Parks Renewal$ 120,000.00$ 120,000.00 Ramsey County$ 78,682.72$ 78,682.72 ƚƷğƌ tƩƚƆĻĭƷ$ 1,604,867.74$ 224,748.54$ 77,469.97$ 603,630.86$ 2,510,717.11 55 Overall assessments will be higher than the preliminary assessment amount but will be set at or 56 less than the maximum assessment rate as determined by the Benefit Appraisal which 57 determined the maximum benefit realized by the properties as a result of the project. Residential 58 properties will be assessed $34.18/LF (Max $35/LF) and all other properties (New Life 59 Presbyterian Church) will be assessed $60.00/LF (Max $60/LF). The feasibility report for this 60 project estimated assessments at $27.49/LF for residential properties and $54.97 for non- 61 residential properties. 62 A final assessment hearing for the assessed portion of the project will be held in August. 63 SR TAFF ECOMMENDATION 64 The work was completed in accordance with project plans and specifications, staff recommends 65 the City Council approve a resolution accepting the work completed on the Victoria Street 66 Reconstruction Project and authorizing final payment. 67 Page 2 of 3
