REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Date: January 11, 2016 Item No.: 11.b Department Approval City Manager Approval Item Description: Approve 2016 Street and Utility Preliminary Work Plan B ACKGROUND 1 Each year Public Works staff monitors and evaluates the condition of City infrastructure for 2 development of ongoing maintenance and replacement needs plans. We use this information to 3 develop capital improvement plans and in the development of the annual budget request in these 4 areas. We also work closely with Ramsey County and MnDOT on improvements to City 5 infrastructure as a part of their road improvement projects within Roseville. 2016 proposed road 6 construction on city streets consists of mill and overlay or the replacement of existing pavement 7 due to surface distress related to the age of pavement since many streets were reconstructed 20 to 8 30 years ago. We have attached a map (Attachment A) depicting the proposed improvement 9 areas which also identifies the preliminary work plan for utility improvements. The proposed 10 work plan is consistent with the 20 year capital improvement plan and pavement management 11 program policies. 12 PO OLICYBJECTIVE 13 Pavement Management Program Projects: 1. Each year the Public Works Department 14 evaluates infrastructure needs based on the City’s Pavement Management Program and 15 assessment of utility infrastructure. Streets in marginal condition are recommended for 16 major maintenance by mill and overlay. Streets in poor condition and that do not meet the 17 City standard for street construction are recommended for reconstruction. 18 The majority of the streets are proposed to have the top layer of pavement milled and 19 replaced with new bituminous pavement. The exceptions are Heinel Drive, Terrace Drive 20 and Farrington Street. These streets are recommended to have the full depth of pavement 21 reclaimed and replaced due to the condition of the roadway. Spot curb replacements are also 22 done at this time but only where there are significant structural issues with the in-place curb 23 or significant settling. 24 The Mill and Overlay projects are proposed to be financed through our street infrastructure 25 funds and Municipal State Aid (MSA) funds. After receiving bids for these projects, we will 26 request that the City Council award the bid to the lowest responsible bidder. 27 As part of the Pavement Management Program staff will evaluate the underlying water mains 28 and sanitary sewer lines in the street right-of-way in these areas. We will take advantage of 29 the repaving of the roadways to repair/replace these utilities. These repairs and replacements 30 will be funded from the water and/or sanitary sewer utility funds. 31 Page 1 of 4
