Related Documents (CIP, ERP, etc.): CIP and Feasibility Report
Notes: $55,800 from Special Assessments; $14,200 from Storm Sewer Utility
Analysis.
. Construction issues
Plans call for reconstructing the existing bituminous alleys in block 100 and block 10
with 6-inch concrete "V" design pavement. The alley in block 100 will be 12 feet wide.
The alley in block 10 will be 10 feet wide to address the issue of several garages
encroaching on right-of-way. Driveway aprons adjacent to the alleys that were partially
removed to meet design criteria will be restored in kind. No sod restoration is planned.
Topsoil and seed will be placed on all disturbed turf areas along the alley where
vegetative growth is practical. Otherwise bituminous will be used upon consultation with
property owners.
Existing turning radii at street intersections are substandard in size. Intersection aprons
will be oversized where feasible to facilitate city truck maneuvering.
