Backgrqynd,
A petition for a concrete alley in the block mentioned was received on
April 18, 1988. The Council, by resolution, received the Engineer's
Report and ordered a Public Hearing.
The alley is an asphalt alley in poor condition. It has received
normal maintenance but is in need of restoration.
The allay has a natural slope to the south. No storm sewers will be
needed prior to constn\cting a concrete alley. A normal installation
is expected with no anticipated extras over the estimated costs.
NUlllerous driveways front on the alley. Repairs will be made with
asphalt between the new concrete alley, if constructed, and those
driveways. The costs of the individual driveways will be assessed to
the properties where installed.
Analysis.
The properties affected by this project are Lots 1-24 inclusive, Block
99, W6st Minneapolis Second Division.
. The estimated costs for the installation of a concrete alley in this
bock is $17,300. city policy is to pay 20' of the cost of the
concretej or an estimated $3,460. This would brinq the estimated
assessable costs to $13,840 plus administrative costs for a total of
$15,916.
There is about l,186 assessable footage in tnis alley. The estimated
cost per 50 foot lot is $671. To that amount will be added any cost
for repair between existing driveways and the new alley. These
repairs would be made on an individual basis after consultation with
the different owners.
Issues to consider before ordering a public hearing:
- Will the improvement add to the value of the property?
The present condition of the alley has a negative impact on the value
of the adjacent properties. A new concrete alley will raise the
property value at least by the amount of the assessment.
- Are the costs comparable with previous projects?
The estimated costs are in line with simi:;'ar projects in previous
years and reflect a favorable construction climate in 1988.
