Title

INITIATE PROJECT AND ORDER PREPARATION OF FEASIBILITY REPORT FOR THE 99TH AVENUE/101ST AVENUE REHABILITATION, IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 21-08

 

Background

At the July 20, 2020 City Council workshop, staff brought forward the Street Reconstruction Capital Improvement Program 2021-2025 which contained a list of proposed projects for the 2021 Pavement Management Program (PMP).  The 99th Avenue/101st Avenue Rehabilitation project consists of reconstruction of the following streets:

 

•                     99th Avenue from Trunk Highway 65 to 101st Avenue

•                     101st Avenue from 99th Avenue to University Avenue

 

The project area consists of a State Aid collector route with curb and gutter.  The method of reconstruction will be analyzed looking at a mill and overlay or a partial reconstruction and both options will be further explained in the feasibility report. 

 

If approved, this Resolution initiates the proposed 99th Avenue/101st Avenue Rehabilitations and orders the preparation of a feasibility report.

 

Recommended Council Action

By motion, approve the Resolution.
