d. Roseville Street Reconstruction As part of its annual Pavement Management Program, the City of Roseville will reconstruct approximately 4.5 miles of roadway in 1996. The only roadway construction within GLWMO is Transit Avenue, just east of Dale Street. This short cul-de-sac is served by an existing storm sewer system. As such, no changes in the drainage patterns will be made as part of construction. Proper erosion control is included in the construction plans.. This project includes the restoration of an eroded ditch section immediately east of this cul-de-sac. e. Bennett Lake Gravity Outlet Bennett Lake is a shallow wetland located in Roseville's Central Park, south of County Road C between Lexington Avenue and Victoria Street. A large portion of the west side of the Grass Lake watershed drains to Bennett Lake. Bennett Lake drains via an existing pumping station to the American Legion wetland, and eventually to Lake Owasso. After a heavy rain, city crews manually operate the pumps until the level of Bennett Lake is drained below the pathway. Special care must be given, when pumping, to avoid flooding in the American Legion wetland. Because the pumps are rather large, some sediment is pumped along with the stormwater. This summer, Roseville plans to construct a gravity storm sewer to drain Bennett Lake naturally. This change will both reduce the resources spent to operate the pumps, as well as improve the water quality entering the American Legion wetland. The proposed outlet will include a structure to allow the system to be adjusted and controlled. The old pumps will be retained for special situations. 2. New developments/projects within Shoreview affecting the GLWMO: a. Victoria Street Reconstruction Plans and specifications for the reconstruction of Victoria, from County Road F to Lexington Avenue are complete and City Council has authorized the advertisement for bids. The project includes widening, repaving, concrete curb and gutter, and minor sewer and water repair.. Construction is anticipated to start soon after Memorial Day and be complete by Halloween. b. Shoreview Woods Development Shoreview Woods is an 11-acre development located on the shore of Snail Lake. Approval of the conceptual plan of the proposed 23-lot development was sought at the April 15, 1996 regular Council meeting. Council tabled the official action for 4-6 weeks, citing the need for more information on wetland delineation, erosion control, and water quality effects on Snail Lake. The developer has since completed the wetland delineation.
