This site is located south of 60 Street North (Highway 36 Frontage Road), and east of the gravel road entrance to the Stillwater Auto Parts (Novak Avenue North) in the City of Oak Park Heights' Central Business District. The purpose of this report is to define the improvements required to serve the subdivision and to provide cost estimates and a method of cost allocation to determine project feasibility. The layout of this site and the improvements required to serve this area are shown on the drawings attached to this report. REQUIRED IMPROVEMENTS PRELIMINARY REPORT ON UTILITY AND STREET IMPROVEMENTS Novak Avenue North is platted with an 80 -foot permanent road and utility easement. It is proposed that the permanent street be constructed to the southerly property line of Sigstad Carpets with the terminate being a temporary 90 foot diameter cul -de -sac. The road will be built to a width of 40 feet with barrier type B618 concrete curb and gutter with 10 inches of gravel base and 3- inches of bituminous surfacing. No curb or bituminous wearing course would be installed in the temporary cul -de -sac. In addition, there will be streetscaping, which includes stamped concrete sidewalk, decorative fencing, street lights and trees. The City's CBD Design Guidelines propose 64' wide street right-of-ways for this type of mixed -use precinct. Since the existing roadway easement is 80' wide, an alternate for a 16' wide, landscaped median is included (Alternate 1) that would increase the overall street width to 56' between curbs. An eight (8) inch diameter sanitary sewer is located in an easement adjacent to 60th Street North. A connection will be made to this sewer with a main extended southerly into the temporary cul-de -sac. A twelve (12) inch water main also exists along 60 Street North. This project will require that the 12 -inch main be tapped while in service with an 8 inch diameter main extended southerly and terminating near the same location as the sanitary sewer. Storm water on this portion of Novak Avenue North will discharge into catch basins and a proposed culvert under Novak Avenue North at bo Street North. The storm water runoff from the carpet store is directed into a storm sewer system located within the parking lot. This system discharges to an on site pond before being discharged to the natural drainage swale on the south side of the property. When the area to the south is developed the pond will be removed and the storm sewer system will be connected with the new construction. The connection for the sanitary and water service for Sigstad Carpets will be at the mains adjacent to 60 Street. A six-inch diameter sanitary sewer and 6" water main stub will be extended to the west to serve future development. PERMITS AND EASEMENTS REQUIRED All of the improvements required would be constructed on dedicated local public roadways or on easements being provided by the developer with no other acquisition activities required. There are no wetlands located on the site so no wetland permits will be required. It will be necessary to obtain approval from the Brown's Creek Watershed Management Organization for the grading, drainage and erosion control activity on the site. It will also be necessary to obtain a driveway or entrance permit from the Minnesota Department of Transportation for connecting Novak Avenue to the Highway 36 Service Road or 60 Street. Other than noted above, only standard permits for the construction of the water main and sanitary sewer will be obtained from the Minnesota Department of Health and Pollution Control Agency. A General Storm Water Permit for Construction Activities must also be obtained from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. COST ESTIMATES Detailed cost estimates have been prepared for the construction of utilities and streets to serve the site and are included in the Appendix of the report. All costs are based on unit prices anticipated for the 2001 construction season and include a twenty -five (25) percent allowance for engineering, administrative costs and legal fees. An overall summary of these costs is shown below: Item Sanitary Sewer Water Main Services Storm Sewer Street Improvements Alternate 1 Total Project Cost Trunk area and connection charges, which have collected from development. These charges are COST ALLOCATION Estimated Cost $20,000.00 $2 1,200.00 $ 2,3 00.00 $9,200.00 $167,900.00 $12,500.00 5233,100.00 been adopted by the City, must also be listed in the Cost Allocation section. All costs being incurred for this project consist of the various improvements along Novak Avenue North. At this time all of the costs shown above would be assigned to Sigstad Carpets. It is anticipated that another lot like Sigstad Carpets could be platted on the west side of Novak Avenue North with no other costs to be incurred. Sigstad Carpets will be reimbursed via assessments levied against the property west of Novak Avenue North. The assessment schedule will be determined by City Council and the estimated amount is shown below under "Future Development" The assignment of costs would be as shown in the following computations: j a t' etjt ic , Sanitary Sewer $20,000.00 Water Main $21,200.00 Services $ 2,3 00.00 Storm Sewer $9,200.00 Street Improvements $1 67,900.00 Alternate 1 512,500.00 Sub total $233,1 00.00 Connection Charges Trunk Sanitary Sewer 2.54 Acres x $2,600/Ac $6,604.00 Trunk Waterworks 2.54 Acres x $4,520/Ac $11,480.80 Trunk Storm Sewer 2.54 Acres x $5,730/Ac $14,554.20 Sub total $32 Total 5253,239.00 Future Develo meat Sanitary Sewer Water Main Services Storm Sewer Street Improvements Alternate 1 west of Novak Avenue North $ 20,000.00 x 50% $ 21,200.00 x 50% S 2,300.00 x 100% $ 9,200.00 x 50% $167,900.00 x 50% $ 12,500.00 x 50/0 $1 0,000.00 $10,600.00 $2,300.00 $4,600.00 $53,950.00 $6,250.00 Total $ 117,700.00 Connection Charges for the future development will be determined at time of development. CONSLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS As a result of the study, it can be concluded that the construction of utilities and streets to serve the area is feasible. The primary objective is to serve Sigstad Carpets and the balance of the land to the south and west in the City's CBD. It is recommended that this report be approved and used as a guide for the layout and design of the public improvements to served Sigstad Carpets and the Central Business District. It is further recommended that copies of this report be forwarded to the developer so that they can determine further action to be taken. I hereby certify that this report was prepared by me or under my direct supervision and that I am a duly Registered Professional Engineer under the laws of the State of Minnesota. Dennis M.
