The Council has previously accepted a feasibility report for Street and Utility Improvements at its regular meeting on December 13, 1999. That report included utilities: sanitary sewer, storm sewer and water main and street reconstruction which includes center medians, concrete curb and gutter, bituminous pavement and concrete sidewalk. Analysis/Conclusions: Attached is a feasibility report for two improvement types that have identified assessments as part of their funding sources: Water services and streetscaping. Water services Water services are proposed to be replaced within the project area from 37th to 43r~ Avenues. Sizing will be replaced in-kind, but with a minimum service size of 1 inch, consistent with City Code. The services would be replaced from the new main line to the property line and include: a wet tap with corporation valve, copper or DIP service line and curb stop at the property line. Assessments are proposed for actual construction cost for all commercial/multi-family property and flat rates of $900 and $1,500 for single family properties on the west and east sides of Central, respectively. Streetscaoin~ Strcctscaping has bccn designed following thc general themes identified in the Downtown Master Plan and includes decorative street lighting, colored and banded concrete sidewalks, new trees and grates and other amenities such as color and material coordinated planters, trash receptacles and benches. Thc concrete color is typically selected after contract award based upon actual mixes poured in the field as samples. Trec locations may need further adjustment in thc field based upon fronting property input and visibility needs. Proposed Assessments Water services: Water services are proposed to be based on actual construction cost for the size of service replaced. Single family residential properties are proposed at $900 for 1 inch for the west side of Central and $1,500 for the east side of Central. Work Session Item: Feasibility Report for Water Services & Streetscaping February 20, 2001 Page 2 Streetscaping: Streetscaping is proposed to be assessed on a front foot basis for all property on both sides of Central from 37th to 434 Avenues, excluding single-family parcels. Two rate zones have been established: a higher rate for the 'core' downtown area from 39th to 41st Avenues where the treatments will be more intense; and a lower rate from 37th to 39th and 41st to 43~d Avenues as the treatments are less intense. The amount proposed to be assessed is indicated as one of'three alternatives: 25%, 33%, and 50% of the total project costs. A different preliminary assessment roll is attached showing the rates and proposed assessments to each property based on the three alternatives. Other Issues: City staffand the consulting finn of BRW will be in attendance to discuss other issues such as: · Reservoir Boulevard design · 37th Avenue intersection operation · Other median openings · Parking during construction · Access to business during construction · Metro Transit issues · Coordination with the City of Minneapolis · Project schedule Requested Action: 1.

Consider Streetscaping Assessment percentages for notice in Improvement Hearing Attachment: Feasibility Report CITY COUNCIL LETTER MEETING OF: FEBRUARY 26, 2001 AGENDA SECTION: CONSENT ORIGINATING DEPT: CITY MANAGER NO: FINANCE APPROVAL ITEM: INTERPRETATION OF VARIOUS BY: W ILLIA~I£LRITE BYx.' /.//~/,~ / CHARTER PROVISIONS IN RELATIONSHIP TO THE PURCHASE OF AN SUV FOR THE FIRE DATE: 02/I5/2001 DEPARTMENT NO: At the City Council meeting of November 27, 2000 the City Council adopted Resolution 2000-82 being a resolution establishing restrictive accounts for excess fire pension residual assets and adopting a plan for the expenditure of such assets. In essence, this resolution was required by the State of Minnesota in order to have excess funding in the Fire Consolidated PERA account returned to the city. In addition to this, council authorized the mayor and city manager to enter into an agreement for the purchase of a 2001 Ford Expedition under state consortium bid for a total of $46,254. This is being brought back to the council for review in relationship to various charter provisions governing purchases and appropriation of funds. A question was raised regarding the authority of the City Council to authorize the purchase of the SUV prior to actually receiving the funds for the purchase. In my review of the charter, I have found that Section 56 through Section 65 possibly relates to this issue in relationship to purchases and modifications in the budget. These sections have been reviewed with the city attorney and it is his opinion that the action taken by the council in November does authorize the purchase of the SUV with no further action required by the City Council. This item is being brought back to the council for discussion and review in relationship to the charter provisions and to determine if the City Council wants the approval of the SUV placed on a future council agenda. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to affirm that the action taken by the City Council on November 27, 2000 in relationship to the purchase of an SUV for the Fire Department was in compliance with City Charter provisions and no further action is required. ALTERNATE MOTION: Move to direct staffto bring the issue of purchasing an SUV for the Fire Department back to the City Council for further review as the action taken at the November 27, 2000 council meeting authorizing the purchase was not in accordance with City Charter provisions.

CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS CENTRAL AVENUE WATER SERVICES AND STREETSCAPING IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT NUMBER 1999-12a On Central Avenue, from 37th to 43rd Avenues Water Services and Streetscaping Improvements City Council 37th to 39th Avenues 18 39th to 40th Avenues 23 40th to 41st Avenues 11 41st to 42nd Avenues 8 42nd to 43rd Avenues 15 2 City Parks INTRODUCTION And BACKGROUND In the spring of 1998, the City of Columbia Heights authorized the engineering consulting finn of BRW to perfon'n a traffic study on Central Avenue between 37th and 40th Avenues. The results of the traflSc study indicated that traffic flow and safety would be improved by placing a raised median through the length of the study area. Designated left tnrn lanes created in the median would be used to eliminate left turn movements from through lanes. In October of 1998, a request was submitted to Mn/DOT applying for Cooperative Agreement funding for the proposed improvements to Central Avenne. The proposed improvements identified in the Cooperative Agreement request included construction ora center median with a consistent system of left tm~ lanes on Central Avenue between 37th and 43ro Avenues. The request also included costs for milling and overlaying Central Avenue in this same segment. Additionally, thc request included the removal of all on-street parking from the cast side and also included the removal of on-street parking from the west side, where possible, within the project limits. At that time, the construction cost for the proposed improvements was estimated to be $544,000.00. In February of 1999, Mn/DOT selected the proposed project for Cooperative Agreement funding in the amount of $540~000,00, in Fiscal Year 2001. The Mn/DOT Fiscal Year 2001 extends l?om July 1,2000 to June 30, 2001. An evaluation of thc existing City Utility system was conducted and the proposed improvements now include improvements to the smfitary sewer system, water mahl system, and storm sewer system in the project area. Streetscaping was considered in the Fall of 2000 and added to BRW's design contract to be included ISSUES with the proposed street and utility improvements. A detailed description of thc proposed street and utility improvements cml be/bund in tile Engineering Report dated January, 2000. Water Services Under the original Engineering Report, the existing 6 and 8 inch water main on the west side of the street will be replaced and upsized to a 12 inch main. This will remove the existing lead joints and fbllow the sizing recommendations of the 1999 Water Distribution report;. Water services are proposed to be replaced throughout the project to the right-of- way lines. All services will be extended to the ROW line where a new curb stop will be installed. Due to the age of most of the original installations, it is suspected that the water services may contain lead also, or be undersized fi.om the current City Ordinance requirement of one inch, minimum. During construction, if service lines are found to be copper or newer Ductile Iron construction in reasonable shape, they will be reutilized and reconnected. In these cases, the curb stops should be inspected for condition and location and replaced, if necessary. Landscaping/Urban Design Improvements The City of Columbia Heights completed a Downtown Master Plan in August of 2000, which focused on a larger area that included this portion of Central Avenue. This plan developed potential schemes for urban design and streetscaping within the core downtown area. Because much of the planning and construction activity for streetscaping is inter-related with the street and utility work, planning and design work was integrated with the final street and utility plans. The Streetscaping Improvements can be broken out into two parts: Streetlighting and Corridor Improvements. Streetlighting: The streetlighting would be decorative in nature consisting of 90 street lights on each side of Central Avenue. Fifty of these would be pedestrian light poles with a decorative style post and lamp, such as an "Acorn" style globe. Forty of these would be new, aluminum poles with 'Hatbox' style fixtures for intersection and safety lighting. All electrical wiring would be placed in conduit within the sidewalk area. Xcel Energy would install the lights based upon the City's plan and provide maintenance of the streetlighting system. Streetscaping Corridor Improvements: The streetscaping corridor improvements consist of focusing on the core downtown area from 39th - 41st Avenues, with less intense treatments north and south of this area in the project corridor. The treatments would include colored banding of the sidewalks; introducing a colored cross walk at 40th Avenue; grid scoring of the center medians; tree replacement with new grates, placed in soil matrix for root containment; coordinated benches, planters and trash receptacles. 2 Existing trees that are salvageable will be preserved, although most trees in the corridor will be removed due to utility construction.

The total costs include a 20 percent allowance for indirect costs such as engineering, administration and legal items as well as capitalized interest. A detailed cost estimate sheet is included in this report for each area of the proposed improvements. Water Services Estimated Construction Cost 20% Indirect Costs Sub-Total Estimated Water Services Urban Streetscaping Estimated Construction Cost 20% Indirect Costs Sub-Total Estimated Urban Streetscaping $142,700 $28,54O $171,240 $602,540 $120,700 $723.240 Total 99-12a Improvement Cost $894,480 METHOD OF FINANCING Cooperative Agreement fimding from MrffDOT will be used for roadway improvements to Central Avenue and Reservoir Boulevard. Roadway costs which exceed the amount of available Cooperative Agreement funding can be paid for through State Aid funds. Water main improvements are proposed to be funded through the City's Water System Utility Fund. Sanitary sewer improvements are proposed to be funded through the City's Sanitary Sewer Utility Fund. Storm sewer improvements are proposed to be funded through the City's Storm Utility Fund. The following is a summary of the proposed financing plan for the project: Previous Engineering Report, Project 99-12: Cooperative Agreement Fnnds State Aid Funds Water System Utility Fund Sanitary Sewer Utility Fund Stoma Water Utility City of Minneapolis ~ t~ (1/2 .~7 Signal) $756,000 $1,997,890 $460,000 $432,000 $120,000 $90,000 Assessable portion, Project 99-12a: Water Services Assessments $125,400 Urban Streetscaping Assessments(25%) 5;193.950 Note 1 Total Funding $4,175,240 (1: Three alternatives are included for assessing varying percentages of the total cost of streetscaping at 25%, 33% & 50%.) A summary of the estimated costs and proposed financing for 3 levels of Streetscaping percentages is shown on the attached table 'A'. Assessments for water services are proposed at 100% of actual construction for all non-residential properties and $900 & $1,500 for residential properties on the west and east sides, respectively, in the corridor area. This is consistent with the City's ordinance for maintenance of utility service lines. The assessments for streetscaping considers the total project cost, and are proposed at three different percentages of assessed cost: 25%, 33%, and 50%. It also establishes a different rate for the 'core' area where the treatments are more intense, at double the front foot rate for the areas outside of the 39th to 41st area. SUMMARY The proposed improvements to Central Avenue are feasible, necessary and cost effective. Construction of a new water main and services will result in improved hydraulics and fire flow resulting which benefit local area residents and area businesses. It will also remove lead containing pipe from the existing system and provide new services to the ROW. Streetscaping improvements along the proposed project area will also benefit the fronting businesses and provide physical public improvements consistent with the City's Downtown Master Plan for Redevelopment. 4 Table 'A' City of Columbia Heights Funding Alternatives 25% Landscaping Assessment Alternative ITEM ESTIMATED FUNDING FUNDING COST SOURCE WATERMAIN I$ 345,500 $ 460,000 UTILITY FUND SANITARY SEWER'$ 360,000 $ 432,000 UTILITY FUND STORM SEWER $ 100,000 $ 120,000 UTILITY FUND ROADWAY $ 1,908,000 $ 1,997,890 MSA $ 540,000 ORIG.
