Feasibility Report 2018 Quarry Road Improvements

Prepared for City of Sauk Rapids

1 Introduction As authorized by the City Council, this feasibility report was prepared for improvements to a 38-acre parcel, presently known as the Quarry property, lying adjacent to County Road 57 approximately 1,500 feet north of CSAH 3. The project location is shown on Figure 1. Improvements include extension of sanitary sewer and water main to the project site.

This report contains cost estimates and design recommendations for construction of sanitary sewer and water main improvements to the Quarry property. This report has been developed based on preliminary field observations, discussions with the Developer, and discussions with City staff.

2 Feasibility and Recommendations The project, as presented in this report, is both cost-effective and feasible from an engineering standpoint. The estimated project costs are presented to assist the City and Developer in deciding the feasibility of the project from a monetary standpoint. The improvements are necessary in order to provide municipal sanitary sewer and water service to the proposed development site.

Based on information presented in this report, we make the following recommendations:

1. Construct utility improvements as recommended herein.

2. Easements should be dedicated or retained as determined by the final project design.

3. Soil borings and resistivity imaging should be done throughout the project limits to determine subsurface conditions such as the presence of high bedrock, soil types, and water table elevations. Final design would be subject to the results of the geotechnical evaluation.

3 Project Improvements 3.1 Water Main

The proposed water main improvements are shown in Figure 1. The proposed improvements include installation of approximately 690 feet of 24-inch ductile iron water main. The new water main will be connected to an existing 14-inch water main located in the east ditch of CR 57 near the south property line. The new 24-inch water main will extend northwest approximately 690 LF along CR 57 to the north property line.

FEASIBILITY REPORT SAUKR 144730 Page 2

An 8-inch water service will be constructed from the water main to the property line. This service will serve the entire property.

3.2 Sanitary Sewer The proposed sanitary sewer improvements are shown in Figure 1. The proposed improvements include installation of approximately 2,800 feet of 10-inch and 350 feet of 8-inch gravity sanitary sewer pipe. The 10-inch sewer will connect to an existing manhole on 10th Avenue NE approximately 600 feet north of CSAH 3. The sewer will extend west 1,600 LF (across the Credit Union and Cinema properties) adjacent to the existing 14-inch water main to CR 57. The 10-inch main then extends northwest 2,500 LF along CR 57 to the existing driveway into the property. The 8-inch sewer extends northwest approximately 350 LF further along CR 57 to the north line of the Quarry property.

A sewer service will be constructed from the sewer main to the property line. The sewer service to the Quarry property will be constructed of 8-inch diameter PVC pipe.

4 Opinion of Probable Cost An itemized breakdown of probable cost for the proposed project is presented in Appendix B. The breakdown is presented to provide insight into costs of various items of the total project. Total project costs are summarized in the following table.

Table 1*

Summary of Cost Construction $441,593

Contingency $44,159

Engineering $75,071

Legal and Administrative $35,328

Total Project Cost $596,151

* Summary of Cost does not include the cost to acquire easements.

5 Financial Considerations This project is a utility extension improvement. Generally, utility extension improvements are financed through special assessments to benefiting properties in the project area. The City must ultimately decide the method of financing the project, and the time when City fees and charges will be collected.

The following breakdowns are provided to assist the City in determining what portion of the total project costs the City may be responsible for. These figures are estimates and final figures would be determined by City staff at the completion of the project.

FEASIBILITY REPORT SAUKR 144730 Page 3

5.1 Water Main City policy calls for the City to pay for oversizing of mains and to assess 100 percent of the individual service costs.

Estimated Cost $157,191

Estimated Assessment $75,955

Estimated Deferred Assessment $0

Estimated City Cost $81,236

5.2 Sanitary Sewer City policy calls for the City to pay for oversizing of mains and extra depth in trenching. Individual services are assessed at 100 percent of cost.

Estimated Cost $438,960

Estimated Assessment $252,379

Estimated Deferred Assessment $0

Estimated City Cost $186,581

5.3 Sewer and Water Area Trunk and Connection Charges At the time building permits are requested, sewer access (SAC) and water access (WAC) charges will be levied. The single family residential (R-1) 2018 SAC charge is $2,150 per connection. The single family residential (R-1) 2018 WAC charge is $1,950 per connection. The multi-family (R-3) 2018 SAC charge is $1,720 per unit. The multi-family (R-3) 2018 WAC charge is $1,560 per unit. Note, SAC and WAC rates increase each year per the adopted rate schedule. These revenues may be used to pay for City costs associated with the sewer and water extensions and construction of other water and sewer capital improvements.

Additionally, Sewer Trunk Area Charges and Water Trunk Area Charges will be levied against the properties. The 2018 single family residential (R-1), multi-family (R-3), and commercial/ industrial Sewer Trunk Area Charges are $2,641 per Developable Acre (DA). The 2018 single family residential (R-1), multi-family (R-3), and commercial/ industrial Water Trunk Area Charges are $5,158 per DA. Developable land is all property exclusive of dedicated streets and alleys, dedicated parks, dedicated trails, dedicated ponding areas, and non-buildable wetlands. Note, the Sewer and Water Trunk Area Charge rates increase each year per the adopted rate schedule. The approximate total buildable area within these properties is 51.6 acres. These revenues will be used to pay for the City costs associated with the sewer and water extensions.

Commercial / Industrial Sewer and Water Connection Charges will be determined by the City Engineer and approved by the City Council based upon review of estimated use.
