20-DISCUSS AND TAKE ACTION ON CONSTRUCTION OF CERTAIN STREET, UTILITY AND SIDEWALK PROJECTS FOR 2013Item No. 20
nze�no�andum
TO: Mayor & City Council
FROM: John Godwin, City Manager
SUBJECT: 2013 CAPITAL PROJECTS
DATE: January 18, 2013
BACKGROLJND: We have been working since November with staff and KSA to develop a list
of projects to be completed this winter and spring, what we have been calling "Year 0", since it
will precede the 10-year CIP now being developed. We specifically looked at projects that were
of a high need, that were scattered about the city, and were of various types. In addition, in
evaluating utility projects, we identified those that could be done in-house with a new
construction crew we assembled.
STATUS OF ISSUE: We agreed to a recommended list on January 17, and also completed cost
estimates on a1121 projects. The attached list includes five water and one sewer projects, all of
which will be done in-house. The sewer work, on Oak between 8t" and 9th SE, also includes some
drainage work where two residential properties suffer periodic flooding. We have included all of
the sidewalks on Bonham and in front of the YWCA building that were part of our grant
application last fall, plus added a small segment on Grand in front of the Salvation Army, and
one block of 7`h between Bonham and Grand. We also included eight road resurfacing projects
and three reconstructions projects — 24`h SE, 6�h SE, and Collegiate. Work on Collegiate will
include paving a parking lot for the Trail de Paris, and work on Graham will include several
blocks of replacement sidewalk. There are many other street projects we could have done, but
there are few in town that do not have water and/or sewer lines underneath them that need to be
replaced first. Finally, we have included reconstructing a parking lot on Collegiate.
Water and wastewater projects can begin immediately. We plan to bid concrete work almost as
quickly and get work started in March. Asphalt work typically should not begin until April due
to temperature concerns, so those projects will be at the end. Altogether there will likely be five
different construction contracts awarded. Engineering will be provided by three different
engineers (two recommended contracts are elsewhere on this agenda).
Because this is a significant investment into our city's infrastructure, and hopefully the precursor
of many more such projects, the council may want to consider having some sort of ground-
breaking ceremony for one or more of these projects.
BUDGET: Funds are available in 2012-13 budget.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve recommended Year 0 projects.
