Memo <br />U John Joerns, Assistant City Manager <br />lidm: Doug Kneupper, Planning Directo <br />CC: <br />Date: 05/13/99 <br />Re: Cmdff Road Improvements <br />During budget presentations last summer, staff proposed using the existing 8 to 10 <br />inches of base material already in place and approach this project as a major <br />rehabilitation effort. The resulting roadway would be a 28' roadway with an asphalt <br />overlay. The cost of this approach was estimated to be $173,000. Staffs reasons <br />for this approach were that only portions of Pecan Crossing and Summer Winds <br />subdivisions would travel the road, the type of vehicles would be primarily passenger <br />vehicles and there would be few driveway cuts.. At that time, Council asked staff to <br />provide enough funds for a concrete road section. <br />The adopted Capital Improvement Budget includes $270,000 for the improvements <br />to Caniff Road. This project would result in the construction of a 28' wide concrete <br />road with concrete curbs. The curbs would have intermittent gaps to allow for <br />drainage into the roadside ditches. The existing limestone base material would be <br />salvaged and used elsewhere. <br />Prior to moving forward with this project we wish to confirm Council's direction on the <br />currently proposed cross-section which, as shown on the attachment, would result in <br />a concrete road with open ditches and gaps in the curb allowing drainage to the <br />ditches. To provide a lowered concrete road with underground storm sewer would <br />cost an additional $96,000 for a total estimated cost of $367,000. <br />3 <br />•PagDl <br />
