Item Description
2007 Street Reconstruction Feasibili
Administrator
Introduction
As the Council is aware, in odd-numbered years, the City has undertaken street reconstruction
projects. It is now time to consider ordering the feasibility study for the 2007 street
reconstruction project.
Discussion
We are presenting two areas for proposed street reconstruction. The first area is the Deerfield 3rd
Addition as shown on the attached exhibit. Deerfield 3rd was the last subdivision constructed in
the urban area without concrete curb and gutter and under the old street section. The streets are
approximately 20 years old and are showing major distress. The Street Department spends a
significant amount of time patching these areas. Also, because there is no curb and gutter, there
is no storm sewer system other than a few culverts and backyard drainage areas. Reconstruction
of this area would provide concrete curb and gutter, storm drainage, and potentially, sidewalks
throughout the neighborhood.
The second area for the City Council to consider is the Irving Avenue area. It is the area lying
east of Jackson Avenue, north of 4th Street and south of School Street as shown on the attached
exhibit. It involves reconstruction of most of the streets in the area with the potential mill and
overlay of Holt and Gates Avenue, and 8th Street off of School Street. Also included is
consideration of the paving of the alleys between J ackson Avenue and Irving Avenue.
Financial Impact
We have done a preliminary review of street reconstruction costs (based on our estimated cost
per foot) versus number of assessable units. Using the 2006 assessment rate for the Highland
Road project, it appears that approximately one-third of the street reconstruction will be
assessable, with two-thirds funded by the City.
