Staff members present: Frank Stone, Public Works Superintendent Todd Haas, Assistant City Engineer Staff members absent: Dale Mashuga, Andover Fire Chief ) The City staff discussed the options for the 1994-1995 MSA possible construction and after a brief overview of staff's recommendation, it was determined that the first choice for the 1994-1995 MSA construction would be Tulip Street NW between 161st Avenue and 169th Lane. The second choice would be Crooked Lake Boulevard between 133rd Avenue and Bunker Lake Boulevard. The third choice would be Ward Lake Drive from 171st Avenue to 175th Avenue. The reason Tulip Street NW was the first choice is because of the problems that exist with drainage and the number of homes being constructed adjacent to Tulip Street NW. Crooked Lake Boulevard was recommended as the second choice for the following two reasons: 1) to try to provide adequate vertical curve at the location at the north end of Bunker Lake Boulevard and 2) because of some drainage problems that occur along the roadway during the spring thaw and the rainfall that is received during the summer. These recommendations by the Public Safety Committee will be presented to the Road Committee in the very near future. With no other items being discussed, motion by Perry, second by Knight to adjourn. Respectively submitted, /'P///~ Todd J.

BRA Fee structure Discussion with Glen Cook DATE ORIGINATING OEPARTMENT Engineering April 19, 1994 / BY: Todd J. Haas The Road Committee is requested to discuss with Glen Cook of BRA the fee structure for feasibility reports. In addition, City staff has met with Glen Cook about a month ago to discuss the problems with projects that were not getting done on time. Glen has assured us that a full committment will be made to get the job done on time for future projects. The fee structure from 1993 is not recommended to change for 1994. If BRA personnel can do the job for this coming construction season, then Glen could discuss with the City Council the 1995 fee structure. / For your information, Tom Syfko did leave TKDA to become an employee of BRA. City staff has requested Glen allow Tom Syfko to work on future projects. ,.. .- n G "- J CITY OF ANDOVER ROAD COMM'ITTEE AGENDA ITEM 4. Rural Street Improvement Project Discussion DATE April 19. 1994 ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT Engineering ~ BY: Todd J. Haas The Road Committee is requested to discuss the Rural Street Improvement Projects. This is an information item for the Road Committee. We want to remind the Committee the construction costs are continually on the rise. In fact, the Engineering New Records (ENR) construction index has very rarely shown a decrease in cost. We hope the 2 1/2 bituminous thickness will give a longer life as along as the proper maintenance is allowed (cracksealing, sealcoating, etc.).

Haas BY: This item is for discussion purposes only. Currently the City does not have a program for replacing streets that cannot be maintained any further (cracking, sealcoating, etc.). A couple of cities for example do have programs for replacing streets. - Roseville assesses 25% to property owners and the remaining 75% comes from the general fund. - Shoreview budgets $200,000 a year for this from the general fund. - Blaine's policy is to assess. c. 6 CITY of ANDOVER 1685 CROSSTOWN BOULEVARD NW. .
