c. The scope of work for the pedestrian trail includes the construction of an approximately <br />2000 foot long, 4 foot wide gravel trail from West Branch Road to the Lakeview Park. <br />4. Cost: <br />a. Bolton and Menk have provided a scope of services and design fee estimate not to exceed <br />$129,000 for the road way portion of the project. If the trail is included, the not to exceed <br />amount is $184,000 (Exhibit B). <br />b. The preliminary cost estimate for the road project is s $1,102,600. <br />c. The preliminary cost estimate for the trail project is between $80,000 and $220,000 <br />depending on final design. There is a large amount of variability in this, based on the <br />amount of clearing and grubbing, wetland mitigation and or retaining walls that may be <br />required to accommodate the trail. <br />Funding: <br />a. Funding for the Street Project will come from the Pavement, Sanitary Sewer and Stormwater <br />Funds. <br />Fund <br />Cost <br />Estimate <br />Pavement <br />$ 950,000 <br />Stormwater <br />$ 142,600 <br />Sanitary Sewer <br />$ 10,000 <br />Total <br />$ 1,102,600 <br />b. Funding for the trail would come from the Parks Fund. <br />6. Staff Recommendation: <br />I recommend Council authorize the design of the 2026 street project. <br />I further recommend Council direct staff to include the trail project design with the 2026 Street <br />Project design. However the trail should be kept as an alternate bid until a refined cost estimate is <br />completed and it can be determined if the cost is reasonable. <br />COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED <br />Move to direct the City Engineer to move forward with the planning and design of the 2026 Street <br />Improvement Project and accept the Bolton and Menk proposal for design. <br />Exhibits <br />A. 2026 Street Improvement Project Area <br />B.
