Public Works Director Mike Koch is recommending approval ofthe agreement with the Iowa Department of Transportation. I respectfully request Mayor and City Council approval. Michael C. Van Milligen MCVM/dd Attachment cc: Barry Lindahl, Corporation Counsel Tim Moerman, Assistant City Manager Public Works Director Mike Koch CITY OF DUBUQUE, IOWA MEMORANDUM February 29, 2000 TO: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: Michael A. Koch, Public Works Director SUBJECT: Sidewalk Repairs - U.S. 20 Overpasses INTRODUCTION The enclosed agreement provides for the funding of sidewalk repairs which are needed on the overpasses recently constructed by the Iowa Department of Transportation in association with the U.S. 20 Corridor improvements at the approaches to the Grandview Avenue and Fremont Avenue bridges. DISCUSSION The City has been receiving complaints regarding settlement that has occurred at the sidewalk approaches to the bridge sidewalk at the Grandview Avenue overpasses. In investigating the complaints, it was found that essentially all the approach sidewalk slabs on both the Grandview and Fremont overpasses have settled in relation to the elevation of the structural sidewalk on the bridge. While the City of Dubuque has the maintenance responsibility for all sidewalks along Highway 20, this situation relates to defective construction rather than general maintenance. Because of this, the City requested and received approval from the Iowa Department of Transportation to fund the necessary repairs, which are estimated at approximately $12,389. Attached is an agreement to be executed between lDOT and the City providing for the City to perform the repairs, and for the City to be reimbursed in the full amount by lDOT. RECOMMENDATION I would recommend that the City Council enter into the funding agreement with the Iowa Department of Transportation and recommend adoption of the enclosed resolution. BUDGET IMPACT Since lOOT will be reimbursing the City for the full amount of the construction, the only cost to the City will be inspection time involved in monitoring the repair work. This should be a negligible amount. ACTION TO BE TAKEN The City Council is requested to adopt the attached resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute two copies of Agreement 95-3-033 providing for lOOT funding of sidewalk repairs to the Grandview Avenue and Fremont Avenue bridges over Highway 20.
