City o� Oshkosh MEMORANDUM TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council FROM: Steven M. Gohde, Assistant Director of Public Works 5`_9 DATE: September 6, 2018 RE: Approve Closure of 91h Street Road (West 9th Avenue) from Linden Oaks Drive to the Proposed Paul's Place BACKGROUND As part of the infrastructure needed to serve Pickart Estates, Phase 1, the sanitary sewer under 96h Street Road (West 9th Avenue) needs to be extended to the west. The developer for this project, K & P Development, LLC, has requested to close both lanes of traffic of 91h Street Road (West 9th Avenue) from Linden Oaks Drive to the proposed Paul's Place for a period of two (2) weeks to complete this work. Their request is attached. A detour route will be required to be posted for the duration of the construction. Advanced warning signs will be placed seven (7) days prior to the closure to warn drivers. The work is anticipated to start September 241h, but may change due to weather and site conditions. A previous request was approved under Ordinance No. 18-399. That Ordinance required the work to be completed by August 31, 2018. Due to delays, the Contractor was not able to complete the work by the date on the original request. Therefore, the developer has submitted a new request. ANALYSIS City Ordinance No. 25-23 requires 9th Street Road (West 9th Avenue) to remain open to traffic at all times. The developer cited worker and traveling public safety concerns as the basis for the closure request. Based on the location and depth of the sanitary sewer, construction under traffic will be very difficult and would likely require a temporary roadway be constructed. FISCAL IMPACT There are no fiscal impacts to this ordinance. 1:\ Engineering \ 2018 CONTRACTS \ 18-17 Pickart Est \ Project Information\ Correspondence \ Memo \ 18- Page 1 Of 2 17 Memo for 9th St Rd (W 9th Ave) Closure_9-6-18.docx RECOMMENDATIONS I recommend approval of the request to close 9th Street Road (West 91h Avenue) from Linden Oaks Drive to the proposed Paul's Place for a period of two (2) consecutive weeks with the following conditions: All work, including restoration, must be completed by October 13, 2018.

Gohde, P.E., Asst. Director Public Works/City Engineer, DPW FROM: K & P Developement, LLC — Kevin Jaenke (920-279-0891) RE: Pickart Subdivision Sanitary Sewer Main Extension To facilitate connection of the proposed Pickart Estates Subdivision sanitary sewer main extension to the existing public main in 91h Street Road, we find it will be necessary to temporarily close both lanes of Stn Street Road. The reasons for this temporary closure are noted below: The existing sanitary manhole to which the proposed main will connect to is located in the center of 91h Street Road approximately 100 feet east of the intersection of 91h Street Road and the proposed Paul's Place; said paved roadway is approximately 21 feet wide. The proposed sanitary main extension is approximately 17 feet below the current 91h Street Road centerline. Due to the size of the equipment needed to complete this construction and the depth of the excavation, the entire roadway will need to be closed. Duration of this phase of the project will be approximately two (2) weeks from initial pavement saw cut through final pavement restoration as noted below: o Day 1; set-up barricades and saw cut pavement. o Day 2; begin excavation. o Day 3-5; excavation and trench shoring. o Day 6; core existing manhole. o Day 7; install pipe, bedding, seal pipe connections. o Day 8-9; backfill and compaction. o Day 10; roadway restoration with hot -mix asphalt. • DNR approval for this sanitary sewer extension was granted on July 6, 2018. Anticipated start date of construction is September 24, 2018 • This second closure request is being submitted because the contractor was not able to complete construction of the utilities during the previously stated two (2) week timeframe beginning August 1. • The owner has been in contact with Kobussen Bus Service to inform them of the possible closure. • A road closure/detour plan has been prepared and is attached. We therefore respectfully request approval from the City of Oshkosh Common Council to allow the temporary closing of both lanes of 9th Street Road to provide adequate area and safe working conditions during this phase of the subdivision development project. Please contact me if you require any additional information.
