DISCUSSION
City Staff is working with the Engineering Consultants (SEH and Bonestroo) to
complete feasibility studies on two potential street projects for 2004. The map
below shows the areas currently being studied. These locations will be further
refined following completion of cost estimates and recommendations from the
Consultants. A postcard was sent out to the neighborhoods as a courtesy to notify
them of the study and the potential of Survey Crews in the area. A sample of the
postcard is attached.
The City of Chanhassen · A growing community with clean lakes, quality schools, a charming downtown, thriving businesses, winding trails, and beautiful parks. A great place to live, work, and play.
The Shaded areas are the properties that will potentially be assessed if this project
is ordered.
Projects are selected based on the following criteria: 1. Pavement condition as cataloged in the City's Pavement Management
System and cost benefit analysis of work versus continued maintenance.
2. Condition of existing utilities.
3. Need for extension of utilities, curb and gutter, and storm sewer.
4. Neighborhood specific issues such as potential development/construction
traffic, drainage concerns, homeowner willingness, etc.
Staff will be available at the City Council Meeting to answer questions
