Summary of EYigineering Recommendations Report Prepared: May l, 1979 Public Hearing: Advisability and Desirability PROJECT: - Improve EMERALD STREET from I.S. 9�+ Frontage Road to University Avenue by constructing a bituminous roadway with concrete curb and gutter, drivewa.ys, sidewalks, storm water drainage facilities and doing a11 other work neces� sary and incidental to said improvement. City Pro�ect 79-P-068k. INITIATING ACTIOII: The City of Minneapolis notified us in 1976 that �lnerald Street wa.s scheduled for 1979 construction as part of their Prospect Park Residential Street Paving Frogram. They are on scheciule and as F3nerald Street is a boundary street, they '� • are requesting our participation in the cost of constructing the St. Paul por- tion of the street. .EXISTING CONDITIONS: Emerald Street is an old oiled street. A portion of the street was regraded in 1957 and resurfaced with a 2"..:bituminous mat. This included approxima.tely the East half of the roadway from Franklin Avenue to 1250' Sauth. The remainder of the street, the West half of the roadway and the two blocks from University to Franklin is still an oiled street. There are no walks or curbing. The draina�e structures axe poor; however storm sewers are in and adequate. The Minneapol.is side of the street is almost all residential whereas the St. Paul side is all industrial. The A.D.T. on F�nerald is 902 V.P.D. , with 21� of this truck trafPic. PROPOSF.D IMPROVEMEIJTS: A full depth bituminous roadway is propased with concrete curb and gutter. The roadway width varies from 36 feet to 4k feet. I.S. 94 FRONTAGE ROAD TO STATION �+3+73 4�t-Foot Roadway StATION 43+73 TO FRANKLIN AV�IUE 36-Foot Roadway FRANKLIN AV£NUE TO ORLIII AVEIIUE �tO-Foot RoadKay ORLIId AVECIUE TO UvIVERSITY AVEYUE 36-Foot Roadway New sidewalks and driveways will be constructed where needed. Advisability & Desirabi�ity Page 2 � ALTERNATES: An alternate would be to not cooperate with the City of Minneapolis, wha has requested. this pro,ject. POSITIVE BEPtEFITS: This project will correct a "half-paved" roadway. The new curb and gutter, with new drainage structures will greatly improve drainage as well as "dress up" and i.mprove the character of the neighborhood. Curb construction will also allow us to reconstruct the boulevaxds which are now being used for parking and driveways. ADVERSE EFFECTS• 'i'here may be some inconvenience to the residents when the street is under con- struction. SPECIAL CONSIDF�RATIONS: = This pro�ect Was requested by the City of Minneapolis. They will do the design work, inspection and construction. A cooperative construction agreement between the City of Miruleapolis and the City of St. Paul will be entered into authoriz- �ing the City of Minneapolis to make street i.mprovements on that part of Emerald lying within the corporate limits of the City of St. Paul and shall agree to re- imburse the City of Minneapolis ,for all costs thereof. TI� SCHEDULE: Prospect Park, of which Emerald is a part of, consists of approxima.tely six miles of street paving. Construction will start about mid-July, 1979 and be completed this season. � COST ESTINiATE: St. Paul's share of the project costs are: Construction $ 68,391.87 Plus 10� Contingency 6,839•19 sub-Tota1 $ 75�231.06 Plus 10� Engineering 7,523•11 $ 82,75�.17 ESTIMATED FINANCING: 19T9 C.A. $ 82,754.17 SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION: This pro3ect consists of the grading and paving of bnerald from I.S. 91+ FYontage Road to University. E�►erald is on the St. Paul-Minneapolis city limits. The cost of the pro,ject will be shared by both cities. Advisability and Desirability PaF;e 3 � . . , The Department of Public Works feels that this is a necessary and worth�rhile pro�ect and the En�ineexing Recommendation is for the approval of the order.
