Box 66 Fax (952) 249-4616 <br />ly Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323 www.d.ar©no.rnn.us <br />March 19, 2018 <br />Bruce Paddock <br />155 Lake Street E <br />Suite 2000 <br />Wayzata, MN 55391 <br />Mark and Laurie Headrick <br />1480 Bracketts Point Road <br />Wayzata, MN 55391 <br />Re: Transition of Bracketts Point road from private to public <br />Mr. Paddock, Mr. and Mrs. Headrick, <br />We have received your request to transfer the private portion of Bracketts Point Road to a public street. Upon <br />such requests, city staff reviews the geometry of the road and right of way, condition of the road and reports its <br />findings to the Council for their review. The Council's review is scheduled for Monday, April 9th. You or an <br />agent should plan on being present. An agenda and staff report will be available on Friday, April 6th <br />Staffs findings include: <br />1. Geometry. The geometry of the roadway does not meet current city standards <br />a. The pavement is 20 feet wide with curb where the current standard is 28 feet. <br />b. The right of way is 30 ft where a local public road right of way should be 50 ft. <br />c. The Cul -de -Sac Right of way is a 45 ft radius where a 50 ft radius is required. <br />d. We note the Northern portion of Brackets Point Road, which is public has 21ft wide pavement <br />and sits in a 40ft ROW easement. <br />2. Based on the plan set from the construction of the road it appears the road profile (thickness and material <br />types) is consistent with current public road standards. <br />3. Maintenance. The segment is approximately 540 ft long. The pavement is 10 years old. <br />a. Its addition to the winter maintenance program would not be significant. <br />b. The addition of this pavement to the City Pavement Management Plan will cost <br />approximately $157,000 over the life of the road. This assumes 4 chip seals, two overlays and a <br />reconstruction over the next 40 years in today's $s. <br />4. Condition. <br />a. The road is in good condition with little evidence of pavement surface distress. <br />b. It does not appear that any preventive maintenance activities have taken place. <br />c. The road does have curb and gutter which appears to be in good condition. <br />5. Considerations. If this road segment does become public: <br />a. Staff recommends current owner to chip seal the surface prior to transfer. <br />b. The stormwater easements / maintenance responsibilities will need to be adjusted. The city <br />would take on maintenance of the portion within the street ROW. <br />
