REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />Date: January 10, 2022 <br />Item No.: 7.b <br />Department Approval City Manager Approval <br />Item Description: Approve Public Works 2022 Work Plan <br />1 B ACKGROUND <br />2 Each year, Public Works staff monitors and evaluates the condition of City infrastructure for <br />3 development of ongoing maintenance and replacement needs. We use this information to develop <br />4 capital improvement plans and in the development of the annual budget request in these areas. We <br />5 also work closely with Ramsey County and MnDOT on improvements to City infrastructure as a <br />6 part of their road improvement projects within Roseville. The following are the improvements that <br />7 we are recommending for the 2022 construction season within the city. The attached map <br />8 (Attachment A) shows both pavement improvements as well as utility improvements. The map also <br />9 shows projects that are managed by Ramsey County, MnDOT, Met Council Environmental Services, <br />10 watersheds and other utilities as some of these projects have impacts on City projects. The proposed <br />11 work plan is consistent with the 20-year capital improvement plan and pavement management <br />12 program policies. <br />13 1. Pavement Management Program Projects: Each year, the Public Works Department <br />14 evaluates infrastructure needs based on the City’s Pavement Management Program and <br />15 assessment of utility infrastructure. Streets in marginal condition are recommended for major <br />16 maintenance by mill and overlay. Streets in poor condition and that do not meet the City <br />17 standard for street construction are recommended for reconstruction. The streets shown in <br />18 Attachment A will be included in this year’s Pavement Management Project (PMP). The 9.4 <br />19 miles of roads are proposed to be milled and overlaid. Spot curb replacements are also done at <br />20 this time, but only where there are significant structural issues with the in-place curb or <br />21 significant settling. The City will also be looking into replacing an old large wood retaining wall <br />22 on County Road C2 near Merrill Street as part of the project. <br />23 These pavement-resurfacing projects are proposed to be financed through our street <br />24 infrastructure funds and Municipal State Aid (MSA) funds. After receiving bids for these <br />25 projects, we will request that the City Council award the bid to the lowest responsible bidder. <br />26 Reconstruction: No roads are proposed to be reconstructed in 2022. <br />27 2. Pathways: A new pathway will be constructed along the east side of Lexington Avenue <br />28 between Woodhill Avenue and 500 feet north. The new pathway will complete the connection to <br />29 the pathway built as part of the Lexington Woods Project. The new pathway will be an 8 foot <br />30 wide bituminous trail. <br />31 A new pathway, Twin Lakes Trail 2, will be constructed from Terrace Avenue into Oasis Park. <br />32 This will complete the two-year trail project. <br />Page 1 of 5 <br /> <br />
