City of� Oshkosh MEMORANDUM TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council FROM: Steven M. Gohde, Assistant Director of Public Works Sr'".5 DATE: February 22, 2018 RE: Amend Resolution No. 18-33 Initial Resolution for Special Assessments — Contract 18-04 Paving, Sidewalk, Driveway and Utilities / First Local Street Concrete Paving Program • Court Street (Fox River to Washington Avenue) • Otter Avenue (State Street to Railroad Tracks) • Washington Avenue (North Main Street to Broad Street) • Osceola Street (Pearl Avenue to 115' Southwest of High Avenue) • Jefferson Street (Washington Avenue to 230' north of Washington Avenue) • State Street (Otter Avenue to Washington Avenue) BACKGROUND The initial resolution for allowing the City to assess abutting property owners for improvements to be completed during construction on the following streets: Court Street from the Fox River to Washington Avenue, Otter Avenue from State Street to the railroad tracks, Washington Avenue from North Main Street to Broad Street, and Osceola Street from Pearl Avenue to 115' southwest of High Avenue, was approved on January 23rd. The assessable work listed included concrete pavement, asphalt pavement, sidewalk (new and replacement), driveway aprons, sanitary sewer laterals (new and relay), storm sewer laterals (new and relay), and water laterals (new and relay). This resolution is to amend the limits to add an area on Court Street from the Fox River to Ceape Avenue, Jefferson Street from Washington Avenue to 230' north, and State Street from Otter Avenue to Washington Avenue. ANALYSIS The resolution allows City staff to proceed with preparing assessments for the abutting properties. A public hearing needs to be held and a final resolution needs to be approved by the Council prior the assessments being levied on the properties. The additional areas are being added to allow for sidewalk installation and utility work, to realign the curb on Jefferson Street to accommodate traffic signals and ADA -compliant sidewalk and ramps, and relay of failing sanitary sewer.
