Mainstreet Project pa.ge 2 0 Segment 3 The proposal made by 1I0ption 5 Revised" for this segment appears acceptable subject to the following: 1- Tha.t soil borings be taken within the street. area t.e ensure that the sub-base under the street is of adequate strength to protect the water main below the roadway as well as support the street itself. This is important due to the type of ccnstruction process proposed. Because construction will take place in segment 3, along with vehicular traffic, the existing street integrity will be strained. If the sub-base is not adequate, the street could possibly fail. Tile water main could also be negatively affected. The approximate cost to undertake soil borings in Segment 3 ranges from $1;200 to $2,500. 2. That the sewer services be televised to ensure that no large scale sewer service replacement is required. Again, if extensive sewer service replacement is necessary, the integrity of the existing street could be compromised. The approximate cost to televise . sewer services in segment 3 is roughly $5,000. 3. It must be understood that there will be a future project to address the roadway needs. This project could take place within the next five to ten years and involve the use of special assessmenta against the benefitting property owners. 4. That amenity levels within this segment be increased over that which was presented to the City council during its workshop session. staff di.scussed this mat~er with Westwood. For the City Council meeting an illustration wl11 be provided which outline~ the proposed amenity improvements for the project on a segment by segment basis. 0 ba.~ Staff ooncurs with "option 5 Revised!' regarding the full reconstruction of Segment 4 between 12th Avenue and 20th Avenue subject to the following two deviations: 1. Du@ to sanitary sewer capacity problems between 11th Avenue and 12th Avenue, this one block area should be added to Segment 4 and be totally reconstructed. '. 2. That a new water main be installed in Segment 4 from :'~<'~'( , ~;,:~ .~,. . 11th Avenue to 20th Avenue. T~' ! .':',:_ :" . .

Staff concurs with the proposal made by "Option 5 Revisedu regarding temporary improvements a,t the intersection of Shady Oak Road and Mainstreet. Th.e Inain issue at this intersection is traffic safe.ty which can be addressed with temporary improvements. As a part of undertaking this type of improvement, consideration should be given to the follo\ving: 1. Staff has discussed the issue of the provision of temporary improvements at this intersection with the potential developer of the Pines Mobile Home Park~ The developer is concerned with the fact that the pines site will be redeveloped into a high quality project from an appearance and aesthetic perspectivef but that the infrastructure at the intersection will not convey that same type of feel. To address this concern, the City will need to keep this issue in mind as a part of the design of the temporary improvements at this intersection. . 2. It is suggested that the improvements on Mainstreet within Segment 4 be extended as close as possible to the Shady Oak Road/Malnstreet intersection. Fer example, it may be possible to extend the improvements up to the radius of the intersection. This type of approach would appear to alleviate to a certain extent the concerns of the developer of the pines Mobile Home Park. IV.. ~.2lfml.t;n4a tism s If the City Council rlesires to lltilize ffOption 5 Revisecl'r st.aff would recommend the City Council formal.ly adopt the option and authorize staff to u.nder-take the nec1.2:ssary steps to have the soil borings and sewer service televising completed before the first City Council meeting in November. If the findings of these studies results in UOption 5 Revised" still being a viable opt,ion, 'che Council could then authcriza the project for 1991 construction and order the preparation of plans and specs for the project. Attached is an updated financial analysis of the Uoption 5 Revillil&cpt project. These figures now include the cost. 'Of the water main b~tween 11th and 20th Avenue, increasE: in the amenity lev.la in Segment :' and the extension of. infro.structure improvements up to the radius returns of the intersection of Mainstreet and Shady Oak Road. _~'_"~_1IIf--~-.rr~. ~11~~.L~~~_~ ~IT,_'lI - ____~,'_"""""""..".~__~',__~r~~__ QCT -11'-19'30 15:43 FRO!'I WESHJOOD PROF.
