1. Public hearing on reconstruction of 6th Avenue North from
State Street to Columbia Road.
Acting Chairman Beyer introduced Tom Hanson, Webster, Foster & Weston, Dale Bergum, WFW, and Tim Schulte, City of Grand Forks project engineer, for their comments, and then hearing would be open for public comment.

Dale Bergum, WFW, briefly reviewed project - reconstruction of 6th Avenue from State Street to Columbia Road, removal and replacement of existing 31' road with a 37' wide street, modifications to change layout of the intersection at Columbia Road, and reviewed 5 alternates for the intersection modification:
Alt. 1) leaves intersection as is with a right turn lane on 6th Ave. to improve flow of traffic. Advantages: minimal R/W needs to be acquired, right turn lanes on 6th Ave. and Columbia will improve flow; disadvantages: left turn lane on Columbia Rd. is not adequate, major conflicts with left turn lane on Columbia Road, unusual intersection for traffic lights if justified;
Alt. 2) leaves existing alignment, closes east leg of 6th Avenue, provides right turn lane on 6th, and lengthens left turns on Columbia Road. Advantages: minimal R/W needs to be acquired, right turn lanes on 6th and Columbia Rd. will improve flow, left turn lane on Columbia Rd. is of required length; disadvantages: 6th Ave. east side entrance closed, left turn from Columbia Road into Medical Science Building closed;
Alt. 3) realigns two 6th Avenues, with skewed 4-way intersection. Advantages: intersection becomes aligned 4-way intersection, right turn lanes on 6th Ave. and Columbia Road will improve flow, left turn lane on Columbia Rd. will be adequate length, promote pedestrians to cross at crosswalk, and improvement straight flow on 6th Ave.; disadvantages: 5th Ave. east side entrance closed, need to acquire more R/W, removal of established trees, and close north access to Medical Science Bldg.
Alt. 3.B) eliminates skew on 6th Ave. but aligns two 6th Aves. by 90 degrees to 6th, and using some of UND Med. Science property. Advantages: intersection becomes aligned perpendicular 4-way intersection, right turn lane on 6th Ave. will improve flow, left turn lane on Columbia Rd. will be adequate length, promote pedestrians to cross at crosswalk, improve straight flow n 6th Ave.; disadvantages: need to acquire more R/W, removal of established trees, requires removal of portion of Medical Science parking lot, close north access to Medical Science Bldg.
Alt. 4) moves west leg of 6th Ave. approx. 300 ft. to provide right turn lane for flow, with required left turn lanes on Columbia Road. Advantages: allows all existing accesses to remain open, left turn lane on Columbia Rd is adequate length, right turn lanes on 6th Ave. and Columbia Rd. will improve flow,

better spacing for future traffic signals if justified; disadvantages: need to relocate utilities, need to acquire more R/W, more problems with pedestrian crossings.

He commented on impact: no residence needs to be purchased, property owned by UND; tree removal minimized, relocate some trees, and those that don't survive will be replaced; no wetlands in the area, English Coulee channel will be undisturbed. He also stated that noise levels within Federal Highway minimums.

Tim Schulte, project engineer for the City, reviewed right of way and funding sources. He stated only R/W needed to acquire owned by University of North Dakota, and because federal project, there are guidelines they must follow, need to obtain appraiser, etc., and alternate chosen will determine amount of right of way. He reported that funding is 80% federal, 10% City and 10% local assessments with typical property with direct access onto street, $600 to $800, and other properties $120 to $150.

Tim Goetz, 3512 6th Avenue North, stated they have no alley, raised question of access to their property.

Mr. Bergum stated there are 4 areas of high concern: traffic problems in area of residences: 1) intersection of Stanford - they will set time frame to work; 2) Stanford to Coulee - complete in as short time as possible; 3) area from Coulee to Columbia Road, access problems, contractor to maintain access; and 4) intersection of Columbia Road, traffic will be maintained and completed as fast as they can.

Evelyn Cole, 2622 6th Avenue North, stated that Alt. 4 her first preference, Alt. 2 second choice; that she works at UND and crosses 6th Ave.N. several times each day, traffic doesn't stop for pedestrians, and she doesn't want trees gone.

Paul Juhnke, UND, had questions re. process, when decision made, etc.

Tom Hanson stated they will have 10 days for written comment, will meet with engineering staff, and will come back to committee on July 25 and to council on August 1 for final decision.

Terry Nelson, 2519 6th Avenue North, expressed concerns re. traffic, street used as a speed way, abutting up to intersection will increase amount of traffic, which they don't want, favored Alt. 4 to protect pedestrians trying to cross Columbia Road.

Karen Verke, 2602 6th Avenue North, and Mr. Nelson stated preference for Alt. 2 or 4.

Duane Czapiewski, 2618 6th Avenue North, prefers to have 6th

Mr. Vein reported they have surveyed and got elevations, and will show results of survey. Tim Schulte, eng., presented map showing drainage area and that they get water from 3 directions: from Dyke to Gateway and North Wash.; would take long term solution, cost prohibitive; also monitor leachate from cemetery. He noted that 6 catch basis dump into one manhole; now 42" storm sewer from that intersection to Columbia Rod and Coulee; adding second line only solution. He stated this problem has been looked at and no short term solution, closed system. Mr. Vein also reported that running pipe through dike and into pond wouldn't alleviate, not a solution because of elevations; and cost of parallel line west on 10th and north to Coulee between $500,000 to $1,000,000.

12. Matter of longitudinal holding pond concept.
Mr. Grasser presented concept for solution of drainage problem in this area: 34th on east, I-29 on west and between 24th and 32nd Aves. S., no provision for storm sewer (can't extend storm sewer into that area), no coulee for drainage and ditches too shallow. He stated that in talking with developer, Mr. Greenberg would like to be selling lots. He stated developers are concerned about cost of pumping station, and it means additional maintenance item for City; reviewed options: extension onto coulee by extending swale to the south, that another idea is residental longitudinal holding pond, which would involve looking at being able to extend coulee, excavation to hold 3 ft. of water, 10 ft. bottom and 2 to 1 side slopes with plantings and trees; and bring storm sewer pipe into that pond; that this would allow them ability to create coulee lots and off-set cost to do holding pond and decrease costs for underground storm sewer pipe. He presented drawing of cross section view in coulee; that this is new concept, looking for direction from committee, some concerns, creating open holding area, problem with mosquitos, cattails, some concerns re. maintenance, but is concept that bears consideration.

Steve Adams, Greenberg, stated there is no way to drain that land, thinks this workable plan, cost effective; and would like to see approval so can move forward.

Doug Herzog, CPS, Ltd, stated they are in favor, that cost of storm sewer system exorbitant.

Mr. Grasser stated options are lift station, swale or coulee extension, and engineering is looking at coulee extension as most viable.

Beyer questioned environmental impact; Mr. Grasser stated they would have to investigate that, but brought to committee to see whether this option should be given further consideration. Mr. Vein stated they would not be digging existing coulee but extending.

Moved by Klave and Hamerlik to approve concept. Motion carried.

13. Matter of amendment to engineering agreement for Proj. 3947,
English Coulee bikeway.

14. Matter of drainage problem in Birkholz' 4th Addition.
Ralph Applegren, Applegren Construction, reported there is drainage problem in Birkholz 4th Addition, when street installed 2/10th higher than it should have been.

Mr. Grasser stated that area in question, when plan came in they had a backyard drainage plan to try to prevent ponding in backyards; that backyard grade minimal, and intent is to get rid of ponding, that in plan would drop sidewalk to get drainage to occur. He reported they have couple options: could install City approved main privately with City to maintain it; that would involve putting in concrete pipe and inlet behind the sidewalk; other option to run pipe under the sidewalk, cut curb and create swale in the curb so can drain water along property line under sidewalk and into street; have maintenance issue and cost issue; $2500 to do first option but through sidewalk cheaper (est. $500), and his recommendation due to maintenance, is to install pipe, almost zero maintenance item, put in an inlet drop it below existing ground so create enough grade to drain. Mr. Applegren stated he will go back to people working with on this development, thinks feasible, and would bring back only if don't come to agreement. Information only.
