Re: Assessments for Concrete Drive Approaches
Contract 11 -04
To Property Owners at:
➢ 2020 PACKER AVENUE
A public hearing is scheduled for April 12, 2011, at 6:00 p.m. in the Common Council Chamber
of the Oshkosh City Hall to consider the following improvements to your street: driveway
approaches. Special assessments will be levied to cover the cost of the improvements.
Assessments are not due until the project is completed and then can be paid by any one of the
plans as outlined on the enclosed Payment Plan for Special Assessments. Based upon the City of
Oshkosh assessment policy, the assessable portions of the project have been identified and are
outlined on the attached assessment worksheet(s). The quantities and costs are estimates and
will be adjusted to actual quantity installed and the unit costs will be adjusted according to the
assessment policy based on bid prices. Final costs will not increase above the estimates without
a public hearing. Questions in regard to payment of Special Assessments can be answered by
calling the City Clerk's office at (920)236 -5011.
The sequence of construction has not yet been scheduled with a contractor. Residents will be
notified approximately one week before construction will begin on Packer Avenue. All work
within this contract is scheduled to be completed by the end of September, 2011. The project
construction will consist of the following elements: new concrete driveway aprons. It is
recommended that no salt or harsh chemicals be put on the new concrete driveway approaches
for one (1) year. If you know of any underground wires and/or piping, (examples: invisible
electric fence, conduit for exterior lighting, sprinkler system, etc.) on your property near the
sidewalk and driveway, please contact the city as soon as possible. Prior to the completion of the
project, all disturbed areas will be topsoiled, seeded, and mulched (the property owner is
responsible to water the newly vegetated areas). The matting placed over the seed is
biodegradable. Please do not remove the mat once the seed has germinated.
During construction, there will be short periods of time when access to your property will be
restricted. There will only be a few instances when this will occur. To minimize the disruption
and the inconvenience, the contractor will provide you with a one -week notice prior to the access
being restricted. During these times, parking restrictions will be relaxed on the adjacent streets
to allow temporary parking. Per the Police Department, a Construction Parking Permit is
not required if a street (any portion or entire roadway) is being repaired and travel on the

street is restricted or prohibited. All no parking areas and /or posted time zones must be
obeyed. Vehicles must be parked on the side of the street that corresponds to the current
date. On odd dates, the vehicles should be parked on the odd side of the street. On even
dates, vehicles should be parked on the even side of the street. Provisions will be made with
the Fire Department and Sanitation Division so fire protection and garbage /recycling collection
will continue at all times. Please ensure your garbage /recyclables are at the curbside by 7:00
a.m. on your regular collection day; crews will be collecting garbage /recyclables first in
construction areas. If rural -type mailboxes exist on your street, the contractor will remove them
during construction. This will make it necessary for you to pick up your mail at the Post Office.
The contractor will be responsible so as not to damage the mailboxes. Upon completion of the
paving work, the contractor will reset the mailboxes.
Although terrace trees may need to be removed at specific locations, they will be preserved as
much as possible. Property owners at locations where a tree needs to be removed will receive
advance notice of the removal and replacement options. Roots and branches may be cut to allow
for paving operations. Cutting and pruning will either be done by, or under the direction of, the
City Forester.
If you have any questions on the proposed assessments or the project construction you can
contact the Public Works Engineering Division at (920)236 -5065.
