Easement acquisition to be known as City Project No. S-1622.
INITIATiNG ACTION:
The Department of Public Works has received a petition to grade and pave,
install c�rbing, sanitary sewer and water main in Gabriel Road. The
petition is signed by 7 abutting property owners, comprising approximately
half of the total frontage.
EXISTING CONDITIONS:
The existing Gabriel Road right-of-way is 40 feet wide and extends from
Springside Drive to approximately 800 feet south. The driving surface
is a narrow gravel trail and the grade from Springside Drive to approxi-
mately 500 feet south is very steep. There are 7 homes built on Gabriei
Road and there is no sewer or water main in that street.
The project, which included the grading and paving of Gabriel Road, was �
before the City Council in the spring of 197$• The Public Works Depart-
ment recommended that the street not be paved and curbed because the very
extensive drainage problems occurring in the Highwood Area are due to the
lack of stormwater drainage facilities. However, a group of residents
still desired to have sanitary sewer and water installad because they are
experiencing troubles with septic systems and wells that will require large
expenditures to correct and other property owners want to build homes and
desire sewer and water mains.
The City Council , on Council File No. 271294, authorized Public Works to do
further surveys and designs to ascertain if limited sewer and water instal-
lations were feasible.
PROPOSED IMPROUEMENTS:
The proposal is to extend Gabriel Road approximately 230 feet southerly of
the existing road (the opening width is proposed at Sfl feet) and condemn an
easement from Gabriel Road (extended) to Winthrop Street.
Sa�tit�r��<:s�e��and-�water�mains would be installed from Winthrop Street
through the easement and in Gabriel Road approximately 430 feet northeriy
to the crest of Gabriel Road. A storm sewer stub, for future use, wouid
also be installed from tdinthrop Street through the easement, this would
prevent later tearing up of lawns within the easement area. The storm
sewer would not be activated at this time.

Minimal grading would also be required on Gabriel Road in order to install
the water main. The construction of any paving, curbing or storm sewers
will be deferred until after the area-wide drainage study is completed and
stormwater outlets are available. The study is now funded for 1979 bY
Public Works.
POSITIVE BENEFITS:
This project will provide sewer and water service to homes that are having
serious problems with wells and septic systems and provide services for
new home construction.
ADVERSE EFFECTS:
The storm, sanitary and water main construction will require the taking of
an easement from Gabriel Road to Winthrop Street.
Sanitary sewer construction will present no foreseeabte problems. The sewer
system in the area has ample capacity.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
The City Planning Department is in the process of completing a study of this
whole general area in cooperation. with the District 1 Community Council . In
connection with the Planning Study, the Department of Public Works has pro-
grarrxned the Mississippi Bluff Study for 1979 which will address Storm Water
Management not only for this area of St. Paul , but witl take into account the
planning of Maplewood and Woodbury.
Further, the Department of Public Works has programmed for 1980 the Nighwood-
1�1cKnight Storm Sewer Systei�� which will be the result of the Stuay i�i 1979•
Part of this storm sewer system will provide storm sewer for Gabriel Road and
an outlet to the Mississippi River Flood Plain via sewer constructed under
T.H. 61 and the railroad tracks.
ALTERNATES:
There is no feasible alternate for the utility services of this project.

SUMMARY A�JD RECOMMENDATIOPI:
This is a necessary and worthwhile project and the sanitary sewer and water
main construction are viable at this time, but the paving and storm sewer
cannot be constructed because no feasible storm water outlet exists.
The Department of Public Works recommends approval of this order.
