2 The existing roadway is 26 to 28 feet wide. It's very flat in some locations (inaudible) which is part of the problem in the condition of the roadway in that the water does not run well to the low spot at the intersection. The roadway is essentially in the centerline and it's proposed that it be constructed again in the center of the right-of-way and the City standard and which those of you who have been with us all night, if you will bear with me, is 32 feet wide, face to face with straight face curbs on the edge to carry the storm drainage, and asphalt paving with aggregate base. . Pascal is of essentially the same design and configuration. As part of the improvement it is proposed to build storm drainage approximately 60%, two-thirds of the way up the road so the water can be intercepted before it goes the entire length, another set of basins here and a third set to pick the water up that comes through the back yards before it gets on to the roadway. MR. POPOVICH: The total published cost was $141,829. Of that $121,454 is for the street, curb and gutter, and $30,376 for the storm drainage. Based on the assessable front footage of 2,805 feet the total cost would come to $43,29 a foot, and at 25% of that it's $9.52 a foot for the paving. On the storm drainage there are 45 lots involved so at 100% it would be $675.02. At the 25% rule it would be $168.76 per lot. It is recommended that this be assessed over a period not to exceed 15 years, and our assessment hearing would be next year, after the improvement is in. MAYOR DEMOS: Any written statements? MR. ANDRE: We have one letter in favor of the project and two in opposition. MAYOR DEMOS: I will open the hearing and ask that you state your name and address, and the address of the property you're referring to. MR. ROBERT. SCHMIDT, 1428 West Burke: Could you please tell us how long a normal street, once it's built, with normal maintenance, how long that should last? MR. HONCHELL: If you're referring to the type of street as part of this construction, it's assumed to have a 20-year design life, at which time it would have to have an overlay. MR. SCHMIDT: Could you tell us the percentage difference in the maintenance cost for a new street versus an old street, and how long it would take us, or if we could ever recoup that invest- ment. MR. HONCHELL: No, I do not have the specific number. MR. SCHMIDT: Ball park figure?
