III. Roadway, Utility and Other Reconstruction Categories/Criteria

A. Paved Roadways The City utilizes a pavement management system to rate all of the municipal roadways and alleys that are paved within the City. The system includes a computerized inventory or data base of each roadway and alley segment which contains current and historical information relative to the segment. The inventory is updated by physically inspecting (surveying) one-third of the City’s roadways every year. The survey identifies the type of distress present on all pavement sections and determines the severity and quantity of each distress. The pavement management system assigns each segment an Overall Condition Index (OCI) rating on a scale of 0 to 100 with 0 being the worst and 100 the best. The roadway and alley segments are further categorized according to their OCI as follows: OCI 0 to 27.99 (Failed) OCI 28 to 65.99 (Marginal) OCI 66 to 100 (Adequate)

Failed segments are considered as candidates for reconstruction. Marginal segments are considered as candidates for either reconstruction or overlay, depending upon several other factors and adequate segments are scheduled to receive normal surface treatment and maintenance, such as crack sealing and seal coating.

B. Concrete Curb and Gutter

Criteria used to determine when concrete curb and gutter should be reconstructed include the following: Poor overall condition (spalling, cracks, structural decay) Settled, tipped or uneven segments Roadway grade changes Sanitary sewer and water end service reconstruction Underground utility reconstruction that impacts or undermines the existing concrete curb and gutter

C. Alleys Alleys are considered as candidates for reconstruction when their Overall Condition Index (OCI) falls into the failed category (OCI < 28) of the Pavement Management System and/or by the recommendation of the Street Department personnel based on the time, effort and cost needed to maintain the existing bituminous or concrete surface.

D. Water Main Criteria used to determine when water main should be reconstructed include the following: Transite pipe Lead services Cast iron pipe with lead joints Segments of pipe that have a history of breakage and/or have aggressive soil conditions Segments of inadequate domestic or fire flow

E. Sanitary Sewer Main Criteria used to determine when sanitary sewer main should be reconstructed

include the following: Pipe that is undersized to carry existing or future peak flows Pipe that has cracking or other structural deficiencies Pipe that has sags, misaligned joints, deposits or other obstructions Pipe that has severe tree root invasion Pipe systems that allow inflow and/or infiltration Aged clay pipe

F. ADA Improvements

In 2018, the City completed an ADA Transition Plan which is available on the City of New Ulm website. The development of the Plan included an inventory and evaluation of pedestrian facilities within the public right-of-way. The City of New Ulm will use two methods for upgrading pedestrian facilities to the current ADA standards. The first and most comprehensive of the two methods are the scheduled street and utility improvement projects. All pedestrian facilities impacted by these projects will be upgraded to current ADA accessibility standards whenever feasible. The second method includes standalone sidewalk and ADA accessibility improvement projects. These projects will be incorporated into the CIP on a case by case basis or may be completed by internal City forces as recommended by the City of New Ulm staff and ordered by the City Council.

IV. City of New Ulm Complete Streets Policy Introduction Complete streets is a transportation network approach that considers the needs of pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users, motorists, commercial and emergency vehicles, hereby referred to as all users. The goal of complete streets is a transportation system that is accessible, equitable and adapted to serve the needs of individuals regardless of how they choose to travel. Vision and Purpose The City of New Ulm's Complete Streets Policy will assist in the establishment of transportation corridors that are safe, functional, encourage active transportation and aesthetically attractive for all users. This Policy will help guide decision makers in planning, designing and constructing transportation networks to reasonably accommodate all anticipated users. Policy The City of New Ulm will consider the safety and accessibility of users of all abilities and transportation modes through the design, operation and maintenance of the transportation network. This approach will help create a connected network of facilities that accommodates each method of transportation that is consistent with and supportive of the local community. The Policy recognizes that streets are different and the needs of various users will be considered in a balanced and flexible manner. Transportation network improvements may include facilities and amenities that contribute to Complete Streets. This includes but is not limited to street and sidewalk lighting, sidewalk and pedestrian ramp construction and bicycle infrastructure improvements. Early consideration of all transportation modes will be important for this policy to succeed. Those that plan and design roadway improvement projects will give consideration to all users from the beginning of the planning and design process to its conclusion. This will require interested individuals and groups to provide input through the New Ulm Safety Commission at least 6 months in advance of the yearly Capital Improvement Program development process. The project development process will include consideration of the land use and transportation context of the project along with relevant information from the Comprehensive Plan for the City of New Ulm. Gaps and deficiencies in the transportation network for various user groups will be considered and an assessment made of the tradeoffs necessary to balance those needs. Review and input from the City's Safety Commission and other interested individuals or groups will be taken into consideration during the project development process. Factors that may be given high priority include whether:

The corridor provides primary access to a significant destination such as parks, recreation centers, schools, shopping centers, health care facilities, grocery stores or employment centers;

The corridor provides primary access across a natural or manmade barrier such as a river or highway;

The corridor is in an area where a high amount of active transportation and pedestrian traffic can be anticipated;

A road corridor provides important continuity or connectivity links for the existing recreational trail network; or

Nearby routes that provide a similar level of convenience and connectivity already exist.

A Complete Streets segment may be achieved through a single improvement project or through a series of improvement projects over a period of time.

V. Necessity, Cost-Effectiveness and Feasibility The City’s pavement management system ratings and visual inspection clearly

indicate that the recommended roadway reconstruction segments are in need of reconstruction. The ADA Improvements have been scheduled according to the implementation methodology outlined within the City of New Ulm ADA Transition Plan intended to meet the requirements of Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990. The roundabout proposed to be constructed on North Highland Avenue at Oak Street was recommended by a recent traffic engineering study as a way to improve vehicular operation and pedestrian safety, especially during the AM/PM peak hour traffic generated by the ISD#88 High School campus. This recommendation was endorsed by the New Ulm Safety Commission and accepted by the City Council.

The underground utility reconstruction is recommended as a systematic method to

replace old, undersized or obsolete water main and sanitary sewer main piping and materials, as well as pipe segments prone to breakage or infiltration. Storm sewer extensions are recommended when mandated to accommodate additional impervious surface, or when cost effective to eliminate storm water drainage problems and vehicular hazards created by pavement cross-gutters. Storm water quality ponds or other treatment facilities are required to meet NPDES or MPCA Stormwater Regulations and must be maintained to their original dimensional design standard. The balance of the recommended improvements have been petitioned for by adjoining property owners, have been contemplated within inplace Development Agreements, have been requested by Developers, property owners, or City Departmental personnel along with a corresponding budget appropriation. Therefore, I believe that all of the recommended improvements are necessary. In addition, the improvements outlined in this report are feasible and have been grouped to enhance constructability and to encourage competitive bidding from multiple contractors, which ultimately provides for a cost-effective Capital Improvement Program.

VI. Special Benefit and Methodology

A. Initial Improvement

1. Roadway Improvements – The benefit for initial roadway improvements is normally assessed according to an inplace Development Agreement for the area of development. Without an Agreement, the City’s policy is to assess the benefit of the initial roadway improvements at the cost of a normal City street which is currently estimated to be $110.00 per foot per side, which includes 10% for administration and engineering services. In the case of very narrow or very wide parcel front footage, a minimum and/or maximum benefit or a unit value of benefit may be assigned.

2. Utility Improvements – The benefit for initial utility improvements is normally

assessed according to an inplace Development Agreement for the area of development. Generally 100% of the cost of the improvements is assessed to the benefiting properties. The cost of sewer and water end services are assessed to the benefiting property.

3. Concrete Sidewalk and Driveway Improvements – It has been customary to

assign the benefit associated with concrete sidewalk and driveway improvements to the adjacent property owners as the contract unit cost of the improvements plus an allowance for administration and engineering multiplied by the area of concrete sidewalk and driveway construction.

4. Alley Improvements – It has been customary to assign the benefit associated with alley improvements to the abutting property owners on a front foot basis as the contract cost of a normal improvement plus an allowance for contract administration and engineering. Special benefit for improvements within a T-alley configuration will be assigned on a case-by-case basis and may be assigned on a unit basis.

B. Reconstruction of Existing Improvements

1. Roadway Reconstruction

The policy utilized to assign benefit for roadway reconstruction improvements is based on City Council Resolutions No. 88-50 and No. 90-35. Resolution No. 88-50 resolved that the City shall reassess the cost of reconstruction of streets at 60% of the cost of a general City street. Resolution No. 90-35 established a unit assessment policy for each buildable residential parcel. Non-residential properties are either assigned incremental benefit or may be assessed for 60% of the reconstruction cost for general City streets or 60% of the cost of the actual project, whichever is less, on a front foot basis, but will not be specially assessed less than the single family residential rate per parcel. In some cases, the benefit assigned to a larger non-residential parcel may be capped at a maximum amount.

Page 11: City of New Ulm1E9156B6...bituminous paving, concrete curb and gutter, concrete driveway pavement, pedestrian sidewalk ramps, street lighting, boulevard trees, concrete sidewalk and

11

I recommend that the City Council continue the policy of assigning the benefit of roadway reconstruction on a unit basis to each single family residential parcel at a rate of $3,300.00 per parcel. The average estimated cost to reconstruct a general City street in 2019 is $220.00 per centerline foot, or $110.00 per foot per side. 60% of $110.00 is $66.00. The residential assessment rate using the normal 50 foot wide frontage is then $66.00 x 50 f.f. = $3,300.00. The $3,300.00 per parcel rate should be considered the minimum benefit associated with roadway reconstruction and does not include any benefit associated with curb and gutter reconstruction, driveway, sidewalk and/or other requested improvements.

If a residential parcel has frontage on two (2) intersecting streets and both roadways are being reconstructed in the same construction season as part of the same or separate projects, the parcel will typically be specially assessed on both sides, one side at the full reconstruction rate and the other side at 60% of the full reconstruction rate. If a parcel has frontage on two (2) intersecting streets and has been specially assessed in the past ten (10) years for a roadway improvement or a reconstruction project excluding a surface reconstruction project on a front yard basis, a side yard calculation may be applied to the adjoining side at 60% of the current reconstruction assessment rate.

Each unit of a twin home or duplex is assessed at 75% of the current reconstruction assessment rate on the front yard side. Multi-unit residential facilities are assigned incremental benefit depending on the number of units.

2. Underground Utility Reconstruction

Reconstructed sanitary sewer and water main are not specially assessed as the City infrastructure charge paid by each residential unit on the monthly PUC bill is used to partially fund the cost to reconstruct the mains.

3. Surface Reconstruction and Overlays by City Forces

The special benefit and methodology discussed in this paragraph is for surface reconstruction and overlay improvements constructed by the City Street Department which generally consists of removing the existing bituminous pavement, reshaping the gravel base and repaving with four inches (4”) of bituminous surfacing. The work may include selective replacement of concrete curb and gutter and minor subgrade correction. The average cost of surface reconstruction per centerline foot is approximately 45% of the cost to reconstruct a general City Street. Therefore, I recommend that the benefit specially assessed for surface reconstruction be 45% of the full reconstruction rate of $3,300.00 which would be $1,485.00 assigned on a residential unit basis while assigning incremental benefit to larger, non-residential parcels. The $1,485.00 per parcel rate should be considered the minimum benefit associated with surface reconstruction and does not include any benefit

Page 12: City of New Ulm1E9156B6...bituminous paving, concrete curb and gutter, concrete driveway pavement, pedestrian sidewalk ramps, street lighting, boulevard trees, concrete sidewalk and

12

associated with curb and gutter reconstruction or subgrade correction. The full rate is applied to subdivided or half lots on side streets. Side yard calculations are not applied to corner lots when assessing surface reconstruction projects. Overlays are not typically assessed.

4. Alley Reconstruction

The benefit associated with alley reconstruction will be assigned to the abutting property owners on a front foot basis as the contract cost of a normal reconstruction plus an allowance for contract administration and engineering.

5. Sidewalk Reconstruction

The benefit associated with sidewalk reconstruction will be assigned to the adjacent property owners as the contract unit cost of the improvements plus an allowance for administration and engineering multiplied by the area of concrete sidewalk reconstruction. In some cases, the City Council may order the reconstruction of existing concrete sidewalk as a means to resolve a safety hazard. If the existing sidewalk was previously constructed by the City’s contractor, is less than ten (10) years old, and has a ¾” vertical displacement and/or more than a one inch longitudinal (1”) gap, the cost of the sidewalk reconstruction will not typically be assessed. Sidewalk is generally not reconstructed to resolve a perceived aesthetic or cosmetic defect.

VII. Estimated Special Assessment Amounts:

A. 2019 Utility, Street and Alley Improvements - Group I Project

1. Front Street from 7th South Street to 13th South Street

The development along this six block segment of Front Street is primarily residential, with some undeveloped parcels and one block zoned as business. The sanitary sewer trunk main installed in 1938 is undersized clay pipe and needs to be replaced. The initial roadway improvements between 12th and 13th South Streets were constructed and specially assessed in 2001, and therefore, the adjoining properties will not be assessed for this one block of roadway reconstruction. The benefit of the roadway reconstruction improvement from 7th South to 12th South Street will be specially assessed on a unit basis of $3,300.00 to each of the residentially zoned parcels abutting the project. The benefit of the concrete sidewalk improvements will be specially assessed at 50% of the actual construction cost plus an allowance of 10% for administration and engineering multiplied by the actual area of the concrete sidewalk adjacent to each parcel. In addition, if a property owner requests a new sanitary sewer and/or water end service for a parcel that currently does not have an existing service, the actual

Page 13: City of New Ulm1E9156B6...bituminous paving, concrete curb and gutter, concrete driveway pavement, pedestrian sidewalk ramps, street lighting, boulevard trees, concrete sidewalk and

13

cost of the end services will be specially assessed, plus an allowance of 10% for administration and engineering. If each parcel were assessed according to this methodology, the estimate of the amount to be specially assessed is $210,000.00.

2. 2nd South Street from Broadway to Washington Street

The development along this two block segment of Second South Street is single family residential and one block (Block 107 South) dedicated to the New Ulm Turnverein complex. The benefit of the roadway reconstruction improvement will be specially assessed on a unit basis of $3,300.00 to each of the residential parcels abutting the project and the Turnverein complex will be assigned two units. If each parcel were assessed according to this methodology, the estimate of the amount to be specially assessed would be 11 single family parcels at $3,300.00 per parcel or $36,300.00 plus the Turnverein complex at two units x $3,300.00 per unit or $6,600.00 for a total of $42,900.00.

3. Spring Street from 20th North Street to 21st North Street in the Prairie Land First Addition The improvements proposed for Prairie Land First Addition are being undertaken according to the inplace Development Agreement for this subdivision. In terms of Special Assessments, the Development Agreement stipulates that the cost of the Public Improvements plus an allowance for contract administration and engineering will be assigned as benefit on a front foot basis and specially assessed to each lot within the subdivision with frontage on Spring Street in an amount equal to the proportion that the front footage of such lot on Spring street bears to the entire front footage of Spring Street in the subdivision, except that concrete driveway improvements will be assessed according to the actual area constructed to serve each lot or parcel. The estimate of the total amount specially assessed for the Public Improvements to serve the subdivision is $555,376.00 or $222.31 per front foot over the 2,498.15 front feet, which amount will be adjusted according to the actual final project cost plus allowance.

4. Spring Street from 19th North Street to 20th North Street

The development along this one block segment of Spring Street is a large apartment complex on Block 45 North and a warehouse/storage facility and some undeveloped lots on Block 20 North. The alley segments connecting to Spring Street have been vacated in both blocks according to Alley Vacation

Page 14: City of New Ulm1E9156B6...bituminous paving, concrete curb and gutter, concrete driveway pavement, pedestrian sidewalk ramps, street lighting, boulevard trees, concrete sidewalk and

14

Plat File 8528-32 (Block 45 North) and Alley Vacation Plat File 1702P-50 (Block 20 North). The benefit of the initial roadway, concrete sidewalk and concrete driveway improvements will be specially assessed to each of the benefiting parcels. The roadway would be assessed at a 60% side yard calculation estimated to be $75.00 per linear foot per side, the sidewalk would be assessed at $15.00 per linear foot for a six foot wide sidewalk and $60.00 per square yard for concrete driveway, plus a 10% engineering allowance.
