Adopt resolution directing preparation of plans and specifications for Project 2015-103, 157th Street & Johnny Cake Ridge Road Improvements.
SUMMARY:
Design and coordination of Project 2015-117, 157th Street Greenway Pedestrian Underpass has been approved and is anticipated for 2016 construction. The bidding and construction of 157th Street improvements should be in sequence with the underpass project.
A map of the proposed project area is attached. This project is tentatively scheduled for construction in 2016. City staff recommends that the design process begin this fall to allow field surveying work to be completed prior to the winter snow season and plans be developed for agency coordination and review.
The project development tasks for the proposed improvements would involve the following scope of work.
• Conduct a neighborhood informational meeting to discuss the project with residents in the Regatta neighborhood.
• Conduct a topographical field survey to collect ground elevation, utility locations, and surface features within the proposed work zone.
• Conduct a geotechnical investigation and soil borings within the work zone.
• Prepare plans, specifications, and a project cost estimate.
• Review project plans and cost estimate with the City Council prior to bid process.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Apple Valley 2016 Capital Improvement Program identifies potential new street construction of 157th Street and Johnny Cake Ridge Road with related trails and utilities in the vicinity of the Regent’s Point Development and Quarry Point Park. Utilities will consist of installation of storm sewers within the corridors and installation of watermain along the 157th Street corridor.
As indicated in the Development Agreement with Arcon Land II, LLC and K. Hovnanian Homes of Minnesota at Regent’s Point, LLC, the City shall extend Johnny Cake Ridge Road north to the intersection of 157th Street W., and extend 157th Street from Pilot Knob Road (CSAH 31) to Regatta beginning May 1, 2016 or upon approval of the final plat for development in excess of 15 single family homes within Quarry Ponds 2nd Addition. The number of residential homes built as part of Quarry Ponds and Regents Point to date would warrant a secondary roadway access for the overall development at this time.
Preliminary project cost estimates and funding are summarized below.
