In conjunction therewith, I have discussed this overall plan with the City Engineer, City Attorney, City Planner,City Fiscal Consultant and City Administration. PROJECT DEFINITION The City-Wide Street Reconstruction Program is a street rehabilitation program for all of the older streets within the City. The City Engineer has identified 9.16 miles of streets (approximately 60% of all City streets)in need of rehabilitation and/or reconstruction. These streets have been summarized into the following sub-areas for planning purposes: t AREA DESCRIPTION y"V ��y` c` 5 ` A • South of State Highway 36 and `� 7 y west of Osgood Avenue y w�' • South of State Highway 36 and IY y ' east of Osgood Avenue U 1 C • North of State Highway 36 and west of Osgood Avenue Oa • North of State Highway 36 and east of Osgood Avenue 00 E • Lower Oak Park Heights O S S �o�1 i �- (�/c - rt cTb M o'Z DlU � cz �rz u2 a 9,,,20z0 cf3 o : pr n__�.• - „ ^')a_7nnn • FAY/c12 -Enna • Mamher of HI R International To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights Page 2 The City Engineer's Comprehensive Street Plan dated September, 1993 plus other data provided by the City Engineer identifies three major areas of construction costs as follows: Description Amount Street Reconstruction $3,463,480 Storm Sewer Extensions 566,200 Utility Repairs 170,000 a 6^ (?$r te-sue 37k-A Projected Total Costs (Excluding Bridge Area) $4,199,680 As indicated by the above amounts, this program represents a maior, major project for the City of Oak Park Heights. Accordingly, this program will not be accomplished as one project. Instead, this program is expected to be a multi-phase and multi-year program. This first phase (approximately $1.6 million) is expected to be done in1221, The remaining phases have yet to be scheduled but are anticipated to be done in 1997, 1999 and 2001. CITY COUNCIL OPTIONS STREET RECONSTRUCTION COSTS: The City Engineer's cost estimates for street reconstruction costs is as follows: Special City Area Assessments Portion Total A $792,150 $562,250 $1,354,400 B & C 204,280 106,800 311,080 D 504,000 576,000 1,080,000 E-Bridge Area 190,000 217,000 407,000 E-Other 335,000 383,000 718,000 Sub-totals 2,025,430 1,845,050 3,870,480 Delete Bridge Area -190,000 -217,000 -407,000 Totals- Net $1,835,430 $1,628,050 $3,463,480 To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights Page 3 Street reconstruction in Area E includes estimated construction costs totalling$407,000 which HZ not be required if the State takes this area for the proposed bridge and interchange. Accordingly,we Arc not projecting the expenditure nor financing of these costs. The City Engineer's report recommends that only a portion(approximately 53%).of the,street reconstruction costs be assessed,ssed, This recommendation is partially the result of his estimate of the maximum level of assessments feasible in a reconstruction and re-assessment situation. The magnitude of this project is such that City bonding will be required. Such bonding will provide the monies to finance 100% of the above construction costs. Special assessments will be used to retire a portion of such bonding. The City portion of construction costs (plus bond issuance costs and bond interest)will be financed by future City tax levies. Juran Moody, Inc. has computed preliminary projected City tax levies to finance the City portion of the above street reconstruction costs. Based upon a series of four 10-year bond issues such projected tax levies are as follows: Percent of 1994/95 Annual Total City Area Years Amount Tax Levy A 1996 - 2005 $85,500 6.6% B &C 1998 - 2007 15,500 1.2% ' D 2000 - 2009 84,100 6.4% E 2002- 2011 55,400 4.3% r r Total $240,500 18.5% See later comments and recommendations relating to the use of reserve balances to "buy- down" some of the above tax levies. To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights Page 4 STORM SEWER EXTENSIONS/UTILITY SYSTEM REPAIRS: The City Engineer's cost estimates for storm sewer extensions and utility system repairs are as follows: Storm Utility System Area Exlr,i sron Repairs" A $261,20077 $30,000 B &C 25,000 0 D 140,000 70,000 E- Bridge Area 0 0 E-Other 140,000 70,000 Totals $566,200 r =$170,000 The City Engineer's report has recommended that the above costs ngt ke Assessed. This recommendation is partially the result of his estimate of_the maximuar.level of assessments feasible- in a reconstruction/re-assessment situation. The City has mil primary options for the financing of the above costs: 1. Debt service tax levies (as part of a bond issue(s)). 2. Existing reserve balances: r• Closed Bond Fund r■ Utility Reserves: • Operating Fund • Renewal/Replacement Fund 55 q(2, r• "City T.I.F." u+ "Lost T.I.F." The street reconstruction portion of this overall program will require a major level of tax levy support. Accordingly,the City Council has heretofore decided against increasing tax levies to finance the storm sewer extensions and utility system repairs portion of this program. Therefore, existing reserve balances will have to be committed for such financing. To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights Page 5 The City does have uncommitted reserve balance totalling approximately$580,000 in its / Renewal/Replacement Fun&tat December 31, 199A The City Council could appropnatea portion of such balance to finance the utility system repairs portion of this program as follows: Area Year Amount A 1995 $30,000 B &C 1997 0 D 1999 70,000 E 2001 70,000 Q a $170,00(Actin"-"d ,� r,_ ,Cem1 4- The City does have uncommitted reserve balance related to tax increment financing as follows: s Sh,,, Description "City T.I.F."

To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights Page 6 "Lost T.I.F." represents increased T.I.F. revenue caused by increasing tax rates. Such monies are returned to the City,County, and School District (annually) rather than to the T.I.F. District. The City has heretofore designated its portion of such monies for City-wide street reconstruction purposes. The City Council could appropriate$55,800 of such "Lost T.I.F." to partially finance the 1995 storm sewer extensions construction costs as detailed herein.

Full implementation of this program (by the early part of the 21st Century) will require substantial tax levy financing. However, the effect of such tax levies (to the property owners)can be limited by prudent planning. The accompanying Exhibits A through D are attached to illustrate such recommended planning. Exhibit A presents (in tabulated format) the overall financial plan for the financing of this program. Exhibit B presents the annual tax levy requirements just to finance the City portion of the street reconstruction costs. Such City portion ($1,628,050 of construction costs) will require /8 additional City tax levies totalling$2,410,000... This difference is the result of bond issuance costs and bondirtteeest(over 10 years) as shown in Exhibit B. .i I `f 7 0 4, > Q ;� }, L-..n C c S t- Exhibit C presents an additional plan to enable the City to limit the effects of such tax levies as follows: '- 1. Existing debt levies will expire in 1995/96($35,000)and 1999/00$25,000). The expiration of such levies will help to limit the increased levies needed for this street reconstruction program. 2. The City will have unappropriated T.I.F.revenues by 1998 totalling approximately $191,000. These monies can be appropriated to reduce tax el vy increases in the years 2000 through 2005 as shown in Exhibit C. 3. Annual tax levies can be adjusted(as shown in Exhibit C) to limit tax levy increases to 5.0% in 1996 and 4.9% in 2000 with no other increases as shown in Exhibit C. Exhibit D presents the effect of a 5% City tax levy increase (over 1994/95) for both homestead and commercial property at various market values. To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights Page 8 CONCLUSION The City-Wide Street Reconstruction Program(including storm sewer extensions and utility system repairs) is the second largest capital/construction program undertaken by the City over the past two decades. The City Council has been contemplating this program for the past several years. This Report represents an overall financial plan for the financing of this program over the next seventeen years. Most of the elements of this recommended plan have been discussed with the City Council at various meetings. However, this plan has not yet been formally adopted/approved by the City Council. Key elements of this fmancial plan are summarized as follows: 1. Concurrence with the City Engineer's recommendation of limiting special assessments to approximately 53% of street reconstruction costs only with none of the storm sewer nor utility repairs being assessed. 2. Concurrence with the City Engineer's recommended timetable for the phasing-in of this program (i.e. 1995, 1997, 1999 and 2001). 3. Concurrence with the recommended financing of the storm sewer extensions and utility repair costs by appropriating existing/projected reserved balances as follows: Closed Bond "City "Lost Utility Area Year Fund T.I.F." T.I.F." Reserves Total A 1995 $59,600 $145,800 $55,800 $30,000 $291,200 B &C 1997 25,000 0 25,000 D 1999 140,000 70,000 210,000 E 2001 140,000 70,000 210,000 Totals $364,600 $145,800 $55,800 $170,000 $736,200 4. Concurrence with the recommended financing of the City portion of street reconstruction by future debt service tax levies as estimated in Exhibit C attached hereto. To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Oak Park Heights Page 9 5. Concurrence with the recommended appropriation of future "City T.I.F." and "Lost T.I.F."to "buy down" future debt service tax levies as shown in Exhibit C attached hereto. Should the City Council approve the first phase of this Street Reconstruction Program, it should adopt/approve this overall financing plan. I will be available to discuss the contents of this Report with the City Council at the scheduled public hearing for this project in January, 1995. Respectfully, TAUTGES, REDPATH & CO., LTD.

Scope This project provides for the resurfacing/reconstruction of 3.2 miles of residential streets in the southwest portion of the City (see Figure No. 1). The proposed construction includes new concrete curb and gutter, street resurfacing, street reconstruction, and storm sewer improvements. Details are shown on Figures 2 through 4 at the back of this report. This project is the result of the 1993 Comprehensive Street Report which examined the surface condition and subsurface strength of each street in the project. The surface evaluation determined the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) which ranks each street based on its condition. The subsurface strength evaluation determines a recommended structural improvements for a given axle loading based on a load applied to the existing street. The 1993 Comprehensive Street Report addressed the needs for rehabilitating the older streets in the City. This project is the first of five recommended street resurfacing projects for Oak Park Heights. All streets included under this project are streets which presently do not have concrete curb and gutter. New concrete curb and gutter will be installed as part of this project. The new concrete curb and gutter will improve drainage characteristics and prolong the life of the newly reconstructed streets. Y"`J'' Also included in this project are storm sewer improvements to collect drainage and reduce the amount of drainage carried in the gutter. These improvements consist of extending existing storm sewers to intersections where no drainage collection presently exists. Preparation of this report was authorized by the City Council on November 22, 1993 with Resolution #93-11-43. Oak Park Heights - 1994 Street Resurfacing Program 3 . / 1 1 i <2. 61st Cl 61st I ST.

The project can best be carried out as one contract. The contract will include 3.2 miles of residential streets and related utility improvements. Street Evaluation Streets recommended for resurfacing and reconstruction are shown on Figure No. 2 located at the back of this report. Appendix A and Figure No. 5, also located at the back of this report, summarize the results of the earlier Pavement Strength and Surface Evaluation Studies completed for the Comprehensive Street Plan. Three items are considered in determining the condition of Pi existing street: • Street age — 2v err S J oc4 Lze .a .Q±s 16 2 Sf J4-- • Structural strength (recommended structural overlay thickness) ( Q,.v`. tP1 �rinS • Surface Evaluation (PCI Ranking) In accordance with engineering standards, the recommended life of a street is 20 years, based on the anticipated life of the materials (aggregate base, bituminous, and concrete) used to build that street. However, many factors contribute to whether a street will function adequately beyond or less than a 20 year period. In the case of this project, the age of each street exceeds 16 years while many of the streets exceed 25 years. The desired minimum structural strength of a local street is 7 ton while a commercial collector street is 9 ton. As presented in Appendix A, a majority of the r Pts evah,'.*.edl require area repair or a bituminous overlay to meet the required axle loading. The recommended improvements are based on the subgrade condition and existing street section Effective Granular Equivalence (EGE). The desired granular equivalence for Oak Park Heights - 1994 Street Resurfacing Program 5 a residential street is approximately 14 to 17. As noted in Appendix A, many of the EGE are below 17. In areas where t e GE s below 14, some subgrade correction work will be necessary to improve the subgrade strength. The final and most important consideration in evaluating an existing street is the condition of its existing surface. The Pavement Condition Index (PCI) ranks the condition of each street surface. Figure No. 5 at the back of this report presents the PCI ratings for the streets in this project. Table 1 presents general categories to define PCI Rankings. Table 1 - General Categories to Define PCI Rankings PCI Condition of Street Maintenance 55-100 Good to Very Good Routine Crack Seal and Seal Coat 35-55 1 Fair Major Repair Patch & Overlay 0-35 Very Poor Overall Repair (Reconstruction) In general, rCLzukings below 35 require removal of the existing bituminous pavement before constructing a new bituminous surface. The existing aggregate base may also have to be reconstructed (subgrade correction). PcI rankings between 35 and 55 require bituminous surface removal or major patching before constructing a bituminous overlay. PCLraek*gsr,-er-„55 t pically do not require bituminous overlays and generally J routine maintenance such as patching, crack sealing, and seal coats are cost effective. As noted in Appendix A, and on Figure 5, many of the PCI rankings are below 55, while some of the PCI rankings are below 35. Based on the PCI rankings for each street included in the project area, and the fact that new concrete curb and gutter is proposed, total removal of the existing bituminous is recommended. Some streets will require removal of the existing aggregate base and subgrade improvements as well. Oak Park Heights - 1994 Street Resurfacing Program . Discussion Streets All street resurfacing and reconstruction proposed under this project will be where no concrete curb and gutter presently exists. New concrete curb and gutter will be placed as part of the project. To effectively resurface these streets, a number of surface preparation steps must be taken prior to placement of the new concrete curb and gutter. Surface preparation includes the removal or milling of the existing bituminous surface. Subgrade correction (removal and reconstruction of the existing aggregate base and some subgrade) is required where the existing street section has failed. It is estimated that 35 to 40 percent of the existing streets will require some subgrade correction work. Upon completing the concrete curb and gutter placement for each street, a new 3" thick bituminous surface will be constructed. Included in the paving process is the adjustment of manholes and gate valves to the finished surface elevation. Finally, all necessary sodding and restoration is completed to restore the area to its original condition. Proposed street improvements are shown on Figures 2 and 3 at the back of this report. Storm Sewer Included as part of the 1994 Street Resurfacing Program are storm sewer improvements as shown on the attached Figure No. 4. The storm sewer improvements include extensions to the existing storm sewer system to improve street drainage and provide greater inlet capacity. It is recommended the storm sewer be constructed at this time to to eliminate the need to disturb the street surface in the future and to prolong the life of the street. It is also recommended that the upstream drainage area from the end of the storm sewer system be no larger than 5 acres. As part of the public notice process, the City may want to ask residents to state if they have sump pumps and where they r:- -*!y divch ,1.-bY it is hoped that the storm sewer extensions can reduce the number of sump pumps discharging to the sanitary sewers. Oak Park Heights - 1994 Street Resurfacing Program 7 Sanitary Sewer and Water Main Miscellaneous sanitary sewer and water main repairs and replacements are included as part of this project. During the design phase, the City should consider televising the sanitary sewer in the project area to determine if any major repairs are necessary. For the purposes of this report, we have estimated the amount of water and sewer repairs typically required for this type of project. Further review of these items will be completed during the final design for the project. Driveway Reconstruction Due to the new concrete curb and gutter construction, driveway and boulevard restoration is required. Driveway restoration will include reconstructing the lower portion of the existing driveway to match the new concrete curb and gutter. Any disturbed portion of existing driveways will be reconstructed of the same material to an equal or better condition. Easements and Permits The proposed construction will be completed within existing right-of-way and easements. In areas where narrow or questionable right-of-ways exist, construction will be limited to replacing the roadway to its existing width. Therefore, we assume that no additional right-of-way or easements will be necessary. A permit from Mn/DOT will be required for the storm sewer between Oldfield Avenue and Olene Avenue along the T.H. 36 service road. Oak Park Heights- 1994 Street Resurfacing Program 8 Area to be Included The area to be included for assessment purposes is listed in Appendix B and shown on Figure 6, located at the back of this report. Figure 7 presents a detail of the assessment area near Olinda and Olene Avenues. Properties in this area must be notified for the ro'ect hearings.

Overhead costs are estimated at 25% and include legal, engineering, administration, and bond interest. The estimated costs for sanitary sewer and water main are based on previous experience with similar projects. Oak Park Heights - 1994 Street Resurfacing Program 10 Assessments Assessments are proposed to be levied against the abutting benefited property. Assessment rates o f r street resurfacing/reconstructing proposed t g/reconstructin g are p p osed o be levied based on the rate classifications shown below: Assessment Rate Classifications Residential Curb (75% of total curb cost) Commercial/Industrial Curb (75% of total curb cost) Residential Street (50% of total street costs) Commercial/Industrial Street (50% of total street costs) Assessment rates will be determined based on the actual final project costs. Estimated assessment rates in this report are based on the cost estiamtes in Appendix C. Residential property will be assessed on a unit (per lot) basis. Multiple residential will be assessed 0.6 of a residential unit for each multiple unit. Commercial/Industrial property will be assessed on a front foot basis. The assessable footage is determined in accordance with the Oak Park Heights Comprehensive Street Plan. After reviewing this project, it was determined to assess each lot an equal share of the project costs (on a per lot basis). Assessments are separated as "concrete curb and gutter" and "street resurfacing" to reflect different City participation for these two items. It is assumed, for purposes of this report, that storm sewer extensions and sanitary sewer/water main repairs will not be assessed. The front foot rates are based on a total assessable footage of 24,870 feet. Assessable footages for commercial and City property are shown on Figures 6 and 7. The estimated assessment rates for the 1994 Street Resurfacing Program are presented ., :'able 3 below. Assessment rates presented herein will be revised based on final project costs.

The final rates will be determined based on actual final costs. The calculations below can be followed when determining the final costs. I. Front Foot Rates for Commercial Property The front foot rates are determined by dividing the total project costs by the assessable front footage. Street: $894,600 ± 24,870 feet = $35.97/ft (Total) Assessment Rate is 50% of total: 0.50 * $35.97 = $17.99/ft. Concrete Curb: $459,800 _ 24,870 feet = $18.49/ft (Total) Assessment Rate is 75% of total: 0.75 * $18.49 = $13.87/ft. There are a total of 1,630.41 assessable feet of commercial property. The total proposed assessments from commercial property (including the City Hall site) is: Street: 1,630.41 * $17.99 = $29,331.07 Curb: 1,630.41 * $13.87 = $22,613.79 Oak Park Heights - 1994 Street Resurfacing Program D-1 II. Per Unit Rates for Residential Property The per unit assessment rates are determined by dividing the total project costs, less the portion attributed to commercial property, by the total number of net residential units. The estimated net total project costs are: Street: $894,600 - 58,646 (commercial amount) = $835,954 Curb: $459,800 - 33,146 (commercial amount) = $426,654 There are a total of 279 net assessable units in the project. Therefore, the proposed unit rates are: Street: $835,954 ± 279 units = $2,996.25 (Total) Assessment Rate is 50% of total: 0.50 * $2,996.25 = $1,498.13 per unit Curb: $420,654 - 279 units = $1,529.23 (Total) Assessment rate is 75% of total: 0.75 * $1,529.23 = $1,146.92 per unit Oak Park Heights- 1994 Street Resurfacing Program D-2 CL NEW CONCRETE Variable Variable CURB & GUTTER Remove Exis Bituminous Curing b 002'/ft 002 ft Ufa.',y _t •`F ".0 d k'_Y -__-- - __.-__._._-.___. ___-_..___. __. -.. sir 1 1/2" Type 41 Bituminous Wear Course 1 1/2" Type 31 Bituminous Base Course 8" Existing Aggregate Base REMOVE OR MILL Ex.

Criteria: What precisely are the criteria used to select streets for reconstruction phases? How did you select streets? Did you develop a comprehensive rating system with clear cut criteria (i .e . drainage problems, cracks, age, boring results, deflection testing results, usage, projected useful life, etc. ) and a list of each street section and how it meets that criteria? Where does each , J1 -6U street section stand on the Street Life Cycle? OfrVL� I read the report on testing of roads, but I do not see a direct A1���,#.1,�.31 correlation between those results and selection of streets for Phase A. It seems that Phase A is too large, encompassing streets v obviously in need of repair and those which are 2,412.-1.e ,9.f 5:5 n°W.e�e � s 19"),C tSO• //n,,f Phase ft It s m�u-�2 1 Timetable: Why is the entire reconstruction program to be done over such a short timetable? Can it be extended over a longer period of time . These questions should be answered in relation to the above criteria. For example, are all the streets in this program going to be cracking up in just seven years? My concern is that the shorter the timetable the higher the borrowing costs, because we have less flexibility in raising construction funds from tax levies . For every dollar in borrowing, the overall costs increase by 48% ! I have been told that each phase must be a minimum size to maximize the cost savings in the bidding process . What is that size? Concrete Curbs & Gutters: How much of the cost of the entire reconstruction is attributed to concrete curbs? How much will the City save if it uses asphalt instead of concrete curbs and gutters? What are the verifiable engineering and cost benefits of using concrete over asphalt . I have heard that the three reasons for using concrete are drainage, snowplow damage to asphalt curbs, and image . 1rn4rCUQ01 ;tv.eet (, � Isn' t the snowplow damage greater on streets where snowplows go fast and isn' t this an area where due to the residential character and narrower streets the plows go slower? Do you have costs on the City' s replacement of curbs each year in the past due to snowplow damage? As for image, many people have complained to me that concrete curbs are not necessary for the modest image of their neighborhoods and would only increase their property value and corresponding taxes .

Box 2007 Oak Park Heights, MN 55082 Dear Council members: A resident living within this year's reconstruction project limits has raised an issue that needs to be considered by the City Council. In the past, residents have been allowed to connect discharge pipes for sump pumps, footing drains, and pools directly to the curb. The resident raising this issue wants to know if he will be allowed to connect his discharge pipe to the new concrete curb and gutter. It is our opinion that this direct discharge into the street not be allowed for the following reasons: 1. A concentrated direct discharge onto a street allows for ice,.tc, build up in the area during spring and fall, thus creating a safety issue. 2. If connected to the concrete curb and gutter, the pipes would be placed within the City's right-of-way and would cause future conflicts with any excavations, private utility installations, etc. within the boulevard area. -- 3. Water with contaminants in it that is directly discharged into the street has a direct route into the storm sewer-and consequently the downstream lakes and ponds. A solution to this situation is to allow the water to filter through an area covered with vegetation before it reaches the storm sewer system. Our recommendation to the City Council would be to decide that this type of discharge pipe must end at the property line which will allow the water to be discharged over land and filtered before it reached the streets and the storm sewer system. This would also alleviate any future conflicts created by allowing private discharge pipes on City property, as well as eliminating icy buildups in the street. If you would like any further information regarding this issue please do not hesitate to call.

There were six(6) plan holders who could have bid the work as the General Contractor, but only three (3) chose to submit bids as summarized below: Low Tower Asphalt,Inc. $995,280.83 #2 Valley Paving $1,055,611.65 #3 - Danner, Inc. $1,112,686.31 The low bid submitted by Tower Asphalt,Inc. in the amount of$995,280.83 is based on doing the entire project in 1995 and is $118,720.00 below the Engineers estimate. The Alternate bid to do the second phase of construction in 1996 would add another $104,585.50 to the construction cost. The low bid received is very favorable and provides for substantial savings by doing all of the work in the 1995 construction season. Therefore, it is recommended that the contract be awarded to Tower Asphalt, Inc. in the amount of$995,280.95 which is the base bid amount not accepting the Alternate bid. We are enclosing six(6)copies of bid tabulation for the project for your information and file. Should you have any questions,please feel free to contact me at 636-4600.

The contractor has decided to pour the curbs and the aprons simultaneously, so there will only be one 5- : day curing period, when residents will not be allowed to use their driveways . However, residents can park in the streets in front of their driveways during this curing period. Residents outside of the area described above will receive another memo in the near future , indicating the date for curb to be placed on their street. All vehicles you will need to use during this 5-day period should be parked on a street other than 57th Street or Oren Avenue by Tuesday morning, so they can prepare to pour curb on Wednesday. Once the curb is placed and sprayed white, you may place your cars next to the curb in front of your home. Again, please do not drive on your new aprons for five days. All driveways subjected to early use by the homeowner will be replaced and the cost added to the homeowner' s assessment. All residents may fill out the attached form to widen their driveway opening for the purpose of building a wider driveway in the future. Please indicate which side should be widened and by how much. If you have further questions , please call me at 439- 3902 . It is CRITICAL that these forms be returned to my mailbox near the construction trailer, located on the corner of 57th Street and O'Brien Ave. (by City Hall ) , no later than 7 : 00 a.m. , Wednesday, May 31st. If no form is returned for your residence by this time, we will simply match the flat opening to your existing driveway width. Additional Notes : Please be aware that our street excavation process will cut off access to your driveway for approximately one day. Also, cars should not travel through the excavation area, as there may be some very rough roads . This is a "road closed" zone and anyone entering it, does so at their own risk. Residents living on streets with storm sewer installations will have an additional day when they will not have access to their driveways . Please call me, Carol Caron, at 439-3902 , and let me know if you have special needs during these times . If I am not in, please leave a message . Please also be aware that NSP owns all street lights within this project and will be replacing electric lines and moving light poles in the near future. This will cause some of the lights to be out of service . Please contact NSP at 779-3163 if you have further questions regarding this .

I would like to apologize for the delay in performing this work. The original sod contractor went out of business and Tower Asphalt hired a new contractor to perform the repair work to the original sod installation. The work the new contractor did included sod replacement a s well as placing black dirt and seed on the unacceptable areas. The contractor will be responsible to water the sod and seed for 30 days after it was placed. The residents will then be responsible to water and care for it after this time period. The sod and seed will not completely take root this fall, and it will need extra water next spring in order to do so. It is also a good idea not to cut the new sod and seed too short next spring. A good height would be 3 to 4 inches. Now that the sod repairs have been made,we would like all remaining work on the project to be finished in the next month. If you have any unresolved issues concerning the reconstruct project we would like you to bring then to our attention now. Please direct your concerns to Carol Caron at 439-3902.
