Neighborhood Infomiational Meeting - Pending �;lT`r CLERK

Project
The p.copose�d proj�ct includes constructian of storm sewer, water and sewer service connections
and reconnections, street improvements, tree pianting and a "modified. Iantezn" style Iighting
system in paaurt of tbe St. Anthony Hill Sewer System. The azea is generally bounded by Western
Avenue, Cedaz Str�et,Como Avenue and Interstate 94.'
,
Refer to attauched S1ite Map for project location and proposed improvements.
Initiating A�ction
The project was �initiated by the Public Works Department as part of the Combined Sewer
Separation Progra�.
Ex-i�sting Conditit�ts
The project area i��presendy served by a combined sewer system. During periods of maderate to
heavy zainf�ll, the�re have been reports of sewer backups into basements and surface flooding
problems. 'X'o solvie this problem,new storm sewers will be required.
The streets' propased for reconstmction are in poor condition. Concrete curb existing on
segments o� dle streets aze deteriorating and need replacemont. Also, attcmpts to satvage old
curb when ze:.a:zscruc:i,zg strert surfaces have been nnsuccessful in the past: therefore, we aze
proposing tp remove existing curb and gutter; and, construet new curb and gutter on all new
streets.
Boulevards are in;pooz condition where no curb exists. Boulevazds along streets where concrete
or bituminous curib eaists are in generally good condition.
Trees exist ialong �,all boulevards and within easement areas. Trees vary in size fronn relatively
recently plap�rted a�h varying in size from 4"-8" diameter to lazge, mature elm as lazge as 36" in
diameter.

The project �rea i#ivolves heavy commercial activity. 'Ilirough tz�affic and access to local
businesses wIll be of primary concem. A detour of southbound Rice Street from University to
St. A.nthony i,s proposed. Restrictions will be placed on construction activity in certain streets
until other st�eets a�'e completed. Construction under traffic will be required on Rice, University
and Marion except#or the detour noted above.
Utilities, i.e., watek, gas, electric, and telephone, exist in the project neighborhood. Any
upgrading of utili�ies would be coordinated with the utility companies during project
constniction.
Proposed Im►provements
1. Storm Sewer
Stom�j sewer will be constructed on:
G�harles'�-Cedaz to Capitol
Capitol'-Charles to Sherburne
Sherbuz�ne -Cedar to Rice
P'ark-S�herburne to Como
Chazles -Park to Rice
Univexsiity -Pazk to Rice
R,ice-Charles to St.Anthony
Cialtier±University to Edmund
S�erbume -Galtier to Marion
Farringdon-University to South of Fuller
C�altier} University to Aurora
Aiurora-Galtier to Farrington
Vrirgini�-at University and South of Fuller
F�uller-'Viurginia to Marion
l�iarion-North of Ravoux to Ravoux
�avoux,-West of Marion to East of Marion
I�terseations of Marion/University and Mazion/Aurora
I�terseation of Westerni/Ravoux
The ep�istiui� combined sewers in the project area will remain as sanitary sewers eacept
that a new s�nitary sewer is proposed to be constructed inside the 8 foot brick combined
sewer, from �Marion to St. Anthony at Sears easement to take advantage of an eaisting
pipe raligcu�ent to reduce restoration costs and area disruption; and the remaining
availalble ca�acity of the 8 foot sewer for stomn water flow.

2. Streets
New streetsb inclucling concrete curb and gutter, aggregate base, bituminous surfacing,
concrtte outwalks and driveway aprons and boulevard restoration consisting of sodding
adjacent to residential areas and sodding/bituminous surface adjacent to commercial
azeas will be constiucted on:
' Width(Face to
Street , Face of Curb
Charles (Rice to Park) 36'
S�herbume(Galtier to Marion) 36'
Galtier(University to Sherbume) 40'
Galtier(Sherbume to Chazles) 36'
Cialtier(Chazles to Edmund) 40'
�ialtier(Alley north of Aurora to Fuller) 32'
Galtier CUniversity to Alley north of Aurora) 40'
Pazrington(University to Aurora) 40'
Parrington (South of Fuller to Aurora) 32'
Virginia(University to Aurora) 40'
Virgiuni�(South of Fuller to Aurora) 32'
A.urora{Westem to Marion) 34'
Puller(�arrington to Mazion) 40'
Puller(Westem to Fanington) 32'
Due ro the commercial nature of the area and to adclress traffic and parking concems in
the a�reas o� new streets, the proposed street widths match existing widths as much as
possil�le. Fbr new streets connecting with University, the streets are proposed to be 44
feet wide to��facilitate turnnig movements and vetucle stacking.
All o�her st�eets with sewer construction only will be restored in-kind in the sewer trench
azea !
3. Buui���ard'�i'rees
�
Boule�vard tt'ees are proposed to be protected during constiuctian to the extent possible. It
is pro�osed co adjust streets widdis as much as possible to save trees.
As a�,result I,of proposed storm sewer and street construction, trees are proposed to be
remor�ed as�ollows:
l�Iariom;-North of Ravoux-one tree(12")is proposed to be removed.
Replaicement and additional trees will be planted in boulevazd areas as needed to reforest
the anea.

4. Lightang
A new ene#gy efficient sodium vapor lighting system will be installed. Ordets and
fundimg are �ased on"modified lantern" style lighting.
Aiternates I
To do notlu�g would be inconsistent with the City's commitment to improve existing oiled
streets, and tp sepat'ate the combined sewers. Constructing sewers without street improvcments
has not been�effectiwe in the past, in that the eaisting oiled streets aze not capable of withstanding
the consnvct�on activity necessary to construct the sewers, and merely restore dle trench areas.
Improving the roadways in conjunction with sewer constiuction will save time, money and
inconv�nienae later,
Streets could be cbnstructed to narrower widths; however, traffic flow and parking problems
would result.
Positive Benief ts
With the co�►pletiok�of the City's sewer project, the chance of sewer backups into basements and
surface flooding will be reduced, and, after rainleader disconnections, sewer backups into
basements wfill be eliminated.
General 'nnprovement of the public right-of-way in conjunction with street construction will
enhance and add {quality to the neighborhood. Street oiling would be eliminated on new
bituminous rpadwajys. Lighting will improve the safety of the neighborhood.
Adverse EffRcts
Normai prob�ems a�sociated with construction, such as noise,dust and general disruption such as
parking bans'� will be present.
Tree removal.would be required as outlined previously.
Speciat Con�iderajtions -
Extra constrliction�I offort will be needed to minimize inconvenience to the area residents and
businesses.
Construction activ�ty will need to be coorclinated to maintain traffic on University, Rice and
Maxion. '
