NEW BUSINESS
Review Conceptual Land Division’s Required Public Improvements of Summertime
Lane) – City Engineer Simpson stated this is a conceptual land division submitted by Mr.
Birkley. He is going to be submitting this to Plan Commission. Mr. Birkley has made
previous requests, however, those requests added additional driveway connections to
Summertime Lane, whereas this proposal would not add any connections. Recommendation
2
would be to require a full gravel drive per the original approved design for Summertime Lane
and require a restriction against any access to Summertime Lane from lot 2 along with deed
restrictions against all properties on Summertime Lane explaining owners’ responsibilities.
Ald. Soltysiak made a motion to approve recommendation. Ald. Fiedler seconded. Motion
carried 2-0.
Recommend Approval of Engineering Design Services Consultant for the Reconstruction of
Pioneer Drive (Janesville Road to Racine Avenue – City Engineer Simpson stated
reconstruction of Pioneer Drive will involve multiple facets including water main construction,
road construction (including sidewalks and a recreational trail), and utility burial. A request
for proposals was sent to five different design f irms. All firms submitted proposals and these
proposals were reviewed by a committee. Ald. Fiedler made a motion to move to approve
awarding the design contract to R. A. Smith, the highest scoring company. No second was
made. Ald. Fiedler advised passing to Council and having decision made there.
Recommend Approval of Engineering Design Services Consultant for the Construction of a
Multiuse Path on Woods Road (Quietwood Drive to Racine Avenue) – City Engineer
Simpson advised during recent budget discussions the planned recreational trail along
Woods Road, from Racine Avenue to Quietwood Drive, was moved to be constructed in
2012. Proposals were dispersed to four different design firms. Three firms submitted
proposals and proposals were reviewed by a committee of two staff members and one
Alderman. Ald. Soltysiak questioned if there is money budgeted for this. Ald. Soltysiak
made a motion to move to approve awarding the design contract to GRAEF. Ald. Fiedler
seconded. Motion carried 2-0.
Annual Review of Hardship Status and Standby Charges for Sanitary Sewer Connections –
Utilities Superintendent Kloskowski stated the list of properties are adjacent to sewer but are
not connected. Most of the Denoon ones were left off because they have no plumbing
inside the house, or the North Shore ones the Lake Meadows committee did not make
existing homes connect. Little by little those houses are going away. It’s supposed to come
to this Committee once a year for review. Typically we leave them as is unless the
Committee wants to force someone to connect. Recommendation would be to leave those
whatever status they’re in the way they are. Ald. Soltysiak made a motion to approve
recommendation. Seconded by Ald. Fiedler. Motion carried 2-0.
Discuss Updates to City Ordinance Relating to Cross Connection Control and Backflow
Prevention – Utilities Superintendent Kloskowski advised the attached “Model Ordinance for
Cross Connection Control” was from Wisconsin World Water Association. We are not going
to write a new ordinance, just incorporate this verbiage into Chapter 28. DNR rewrote
Section NR 810 last year. They want Utilities to become more proactive inspecting cross
connections, so they want us to update our Ordinances and do more inspections. They
always requested we do inspections in the past, but now they are requiring us to do in
residential properties once every 10 years and commercial every other year. It is to make
sure those served by public water do not have a contamination source. It would be a
physical walk-thru of your house and inspection of every faucet. They want us to do 10
percent every year. Ald. Soltysiak made a motion to submit it to City Attorney to look at and
then bring it back here. Ald. Fielder seconded. Motion carried 2-0.
NEW BUSINESS PLACED ON FILE

Subject: Tess Corners Drive Reconstruction Design Proposal Amendment
Date: November 18, 2011
As part of the design for the reconstruction of Tess Corners Drive, one of the first tasks
was soil exploration and pavement cross section design. While it is obvious soil failure
is occurring underneath the pavement surface, a professional geotechnical engineer has
completed a series of soil boring samples and analyzed the results for substructure and
pavement design purposes.
The soil conditions are worse than anticipated and will result in the need for greater
than anticipated soil modifications. Because of the required substructure modifications,
the construction costs will be greater than originally anticipated. When I received the
news regarding the soil conditions, I asked Foth to prepare a construction cost estimate
for various alternatives (attached). Because of the large amount of substructure work
required, it was determined that an off-road recreational trail would result in lower
construction costs. The estimated construction cost savings will vary from $334,000 to
$434,000.
Added expenses to complete the off road path will be additional soil borings, minor
right of way acquisition, and increased design services. Foth is preparing a price for the
requested change in scope (not complete at the time of completing this memo).
Assuming that the additional right of way acquisition and design expenses total no more
than $100,000 (high end estimate), the modified design will still save the City a
minimum of approximately $234,000. Knowing this and that the City’s Park &
Recreation Board’s preferred alternative for pathw ays is off-road, I recommend
approving a design services contract modification and move forward with an off road
path alternative.
Detailed cost estimates and the design amendment will be sent out as soon as available.
Recommendation for Action:
Review and recommend proposed amendment to Foth’s design contract that will allow
for the design of an off-road recreational trail.
