2003 Public Works Transportation Commission Tour October 23, 2003 . City Hall! Public Works Building Project . Josephine Road: When this street was reconstructed in 2001, we worked very closely with the neighborhood. The parking bays and narrow street design are intended to give the street a more residential feel. The sidewalk was a part of the Citizen Pathway Committee's recommendations to have a pathway around all of the City's significant water bodies and along all State Aid Streets. . Arona Development Site: The Arona pond was identified as a "problem area" and modeled as a pal1 of the Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan. The City has a contractor that will be excavating the basin creating additional water quality storage as well as providing a permanent lift station to pump down this land locked basin. The Applewood Point redevelopment is located to the n0l1hwest of the pond. . Pathway Rehabilitation: This segment of pathway was reconstructed as part of 2003 Pathway & Parking Lot Reconstruction Program. This is done mainly using City Staff; however, portions of the projects are contracted out. By utilizing City staff to do removal, grading, utility and restoration work we are able to achieve significant cost savings. .
