1993.
Overview.
council at its regular April 6 meeting considered a feasibility
study concerning the reconstruction of the above-referenced alley
and ordered a public hearing for May 17. Notices were sent to
all affected property owners. A public information meeting was
conducted with the residents on March 23 for discussion of all
improvement issues, estimated costs, and assessment policies.
Primary Issues to Consider.

· What are the current conditions of the alley?
The alley in its current status is considered unimproved.
Its surface consists of 1 - 1 1/2" of bituminous in
deteriorated condition, edges are bermed in some places to
prevent runoff onto private property, and the general grade
has poor drainage characteristics. The roadway requires an
elevated maintenance program.
· What are estimated costs of an improvement?
Reconstruction with concrete pavement is estimated at
approximately $31,000. Most lots on this alley are 50 feet
in width. Since there are a number of lots with
substantially more footage staff recommends a maximum of 75
front feet for assessment purposes. This policy translates
into an average assessment of $1,025 per lot to a maximum of
$1,537.
Assessments will be based on the City's policy of 80% project
cost to be funded by the residents, 20% will be funded by the
city. The additional cost of refurbishing the alley storm
sewer will be borne by the storm sewer utility. This cost is
estimated at $1,200.
. Should the Council order an improvement?
. The attached resident's letter best illustrates the
sentiments for this improvement project. Staff encountered
mostly positive reaction to this project at the neighborhood
information meeting. Staff recommends adoption of the
resolution ordering plans and specifications.

~ FEASIBILITY REPORT
CONCRETE ALLEY PAVING
12TH AVE N/13TH AVE N/3RD ST N/600' SOUTH
CITY PROJECT NO. 92-11B
MARCH 30, 1993
Introduction
The 1993-97 Capital Improvement Plan (C.I.P.) includes an alley paving
project for each year of the five year plan. The 1993 plan identified
two alleys that staff determined were necessary to upgrade with
concrete paving due to the high maintenance and drainage problems
, associated with them. The City Council reviewed these proposed alley
paving projects during their review of the C.l.P., and subsequently
authorized staff to begin the initial analysis of these projects upon
their adoption of the C.I.P.
Backqround
The alley bounded by 12th Ave N/13th Ave N/3RD st N/600' south is
presently considered an unimproved alley. Its surface consists of a
1" - 1.5" asphalt layer that has poor drainage characteristics. The
combination of the thin asphalt layer and the poor drainage patterns
have resulted in this alley developing many potholes over the years
. '. thereby substantially increasing maintenance and other associated
, problems.
Proposed Desiqn
The proposed alley improvement project provides for the construction
of a concrete pavement surface 12 feet wide and six inches thick in
accordance with the city of Hopkins' improvement policy. New alley
aprons will also be constructed on 3rd st N and on 12th Ave N to
better match existing grades on these streets. Driveway aprons will
be paved between the new alley surface and the paved driveways with
similar material as the top surface of the driveway. Gravel will be
placed in driveway openings in all situations other than matching
concrete or asphalt driveways. There will be no sod restoration on
this project. Black dirt and seed will be placed in all disturbed
turf areas alo~g the alley.
The pavement will include a "V" design, slightly depressed in the
middle, to channel water towards the middle of the alley instead of
towards adj acent properties. It is also proposed that the pavement
grades be established to direct the drainage to an existing storm
sewer catch basin located on the south end of the alley.

Feasibility Report: Project No. 92-11B
Page 2
Pror>osed Funding
It is proposed that the concrete pavement portion of the project be
assessed in accordance with city policy, 80% against abutting
benefitted properties and 20% against the City of Hopkins. It is
further proposed that the storm sewer portion of the project be paid
entirely from the storm sewer utility fund, and also the 20%
assessment against the City of Hopkins.
It has been determined that the fairest method to assess this project
is on a lineal footage basis. It has been further determined that the
maximum lineal footage assessment will be based on 75 lineal feet due
to the odd shape of a few parcels. A maximum assessment was chosen in
this situation as a means to determine actual benefit of the project.
A summary of the estimated costs and assessments are provided below.
Assessments per lot are shown on the attached site plan.
Project Costs
Contract Costs $25,951.00
Engineering $ 5,000.00
Total $30,951.00
80% share of Total Project Cost
per assessment policy $24,761.00
Assessable lineal footage 1,209 feet
Lineal Footage Assessment $ 20.50
Assessment Period 10 years
Interest Rate 8%
Recommendation
It is recommended that the city Council accept the, city Engineer's
feasibility report as outlined herein, and order the improvement made
subsequent to holding a public hearing.

Gentlemen:
Thank you for a very informative meeting on Tuesday, March 23. With the meeting
focusing on the alley for the 200 block between 12th and 13th Avenues, you were able to
address our concerns as neighbors and still treat us on an individual basis.
We fully support the proposed concrete alley, and are now even more aware of the
deterioration of the existing alley. Large potholes are developing and I hope that you plan
to do some patching to get us through to August.
With the proposed alley improvements, we wish to consider improving our driveway at
the same time. Please let us know when the contractor has been selected, we would like
to discuss the options with them.
Very truly yours,
