A new pathway will be constructed on the east side of Cleveland Avenue north of Iona Lane to complete a gap in the pathway network. The Tamarack Park connection to Western will be constructed to make a complete loop in the neighborhood. A new pathway, the Twin Lakes Trail, will be constructed over RCD 4 when the ditch is converted to a pipe. This will make a trail connection from County Road C to Terrace and connect new apartments that are currently under construction in the Twin Lakes Area. Pathways in Central Park and the Centerpointe Business park will be resurfaced 3. Utility Infrastructure: Sanitary Sewer Lining: The majority of the city's sanitary sewer mains were constructed in the late 1950's and early 1960's, utilizing clay tile pipe and reinforced concrete pipe. Over time, the joint materials have failed allowing root intrusion. The pipe is also susceptible to cracking and construction damage. The 2021 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 tile 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 technology has been proven over the past 20 years, and costs have become competitive with open cut replacement. The City started doing this type of renovation on an annual basis in 2006 and will have an annual project for the foreseeable future to replace our aging sewer infrastructure. This technology also reduces infiltration of groundwater into the system and can be credited toward current and future inflow/ infiltration surcharges which are mandated by the Metropolitan Council. hi 2021, approximately 7.4 miles of sanitary pipe are schedule to be lined. The location of this work varies and is spread throughout the city based on system priority. Pipe Replacements/Repairs: Staff evaluates sanitary and water main replacement needs in our pavement replacement areas as well as utility infrastructure needs in County and State project areas. To date, city staff has identified sewer replacements in the following locations: • County Road B & Dale • County Road B & 200 feet east of Dale Street • County Road B & Cohansey To date, city staff has identified water replacements in the following locations: • Cleveland Avenue, County Road C2 — County Road D o This section is proposed to be replaced due to high water break history. o Staff will continue to work with a consultant on design for phase 3 of the water booster station improvements. Phase three involves roof replacement, replacement of existing roof and skylights, refurbishment of exterior brick, refurbishment of interior finishes, noise attenuation, lighting enhancements,
