Title

INITIATE PROJECT AND ORDER PREPARATION OF FEASIBILITY REPORT FOR THE 2020 STREET RECONSTRUCTIONS - AREA 1, IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 19-16

Background

At the September 16, 2019 City Council workshop, staff brought forward a list of proposed projects for the 2020 Pavement Management Program (PMP).  The 2020 Street Reconstructions - Area 1 project consists of reconstruction of the following streets:

•                     Polk Street from 89^th Avenue to Clover Leaf Parkway

•                     Tyler Street from 89^th Avenue to 91^st Avenue

•                     Van Buren Street from 89^th Avenue to 91^st Avenue

•                     Jackson Street from 89^th Avenue to 91^st Avenue

•                     90^th Lane from 91^st Avenue to 91^st Avenue

The project area consist of residential streets with concrete curb and gutter, residential streets with no curb and gutter and a State Aid collector route with partial curb and gutter.  The method of reconstruction will vary between the streets and will be further explained in the feasibility report.  Due to PMP funding considerations, it is proposed that this project be designed in 2020 and if capacity exists in the 2020 PMP construct a portion or all of it in 2020, if there is not enough capacity it would be constructed in 2021.

If approved, this Resolution initiates the proposed 2020 Street Reconstructions - Area 1 and orders the preparation of a feasibility report.

Recommended Council Action
