FROM:
Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
Gus Psihoyos, City Engineer ~
TO:
SUBJECT: Nowata Street Reconstruction Project
Fiscal Year 2006 Street Construction Program
INTRODUCTION
The enclosed resolutions authorize the public bidding procedure for the Nowata Street
Reconstruction Project.
DISCUSSION
The Nowata Street Reconstruction Project will provide for the complete reconstruction of all
underground utilities, roadway sub-base and mainline concrete pavement from University
Avenue and Loras Boulevard.
Currently Nowata Street is 27-foot wide and allows for parking on the east side of the street
while the proposed improvements incorporate a 37-foot wide roadway which will
accommodate parking on both sides of the street. The additional parking will provide
alternate parking options for users of the adjacent Allison-Henderson Park and should
improve parking congestion concerns for local residents.
Incorporated in the design are traffic-calming measures which include two roadway bump-
outs at both the University Avenue and Loras Boulevard intersections. The bump-out
design reduces the street width from 37-feet to 31-feet at both ends of the project which is
designed to aid in the reduction of traffic speeds.
The storm sewer system will be reconstructed to incorporate larger capacity storm water
intakes with new 15-inch diameter sewer pipe which will improve the storm water
conveyance in the area.
The existing sanitary sewer system will be completely upgraded to include a new 8-inch
mainline sewer; the reconstruction of deteriorated brick manholes; and the replacement of
all private sanitary sewer laterals. The cost for the individual sanitary sewer lateral
replacements will be assessed to each respective private property owner.
The watermain system is scheduled for complete reconstruction which will include new main
line water service, valves and fire hydrants.
The project will also provide for the installation of fiber optics and telecommunications
conduit infrastructure and the complete reconstruction of the existing pedestrian sidewalks
along the east side of Nowata Street between University Avenue and Loras Boulevard. New
sidewalk will be constructed along the Allison-Henderson Park side.
PROJECT COORDINATION
In an effort to inform the Nowata Street residents about the proposed underground utility
improvements and the street reconstruction plans, the Engineering Department staff
conducted two (2) public informational meetings. The open forum meetings allowed staff to
discuss the scope of the project, construction schedule, special assessment procedures,
availability of financial assistance, as well as to answer any other questions relating to the
project. The public informational meetings proved to offer mutual benefit to both staff and
residents that attended.
Additionally, Engineering Department staff held constructability review meetings with several
local contractors to discuss the scope of the project and completion schedule. The valuable
comments and input from the contractors have been incorporated into the construction
documents and the completion schedule.
