The proposed project area is zoned RI - Single Family Residential. There are a total <br />of six properties within the proposed project area, five residential properties and Orono <br />Cemetery. Three residential properties have front footage only on Boston Street and no <br />current access to sanitary sewer and water service. The other two properties are corner <br />lots that were provided sanitary sewer and water service access from Orono Road when <br />Western Area Phase 1 construction was completed. <br /> <br />IV. PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS <br /> <br />The proposed improvements, shown on Exhibit 2, include the extension of sanitary <br />sewer and watermain and the reconstruction of the road. Eight-inch sanitary sewer will <br />be extended to the north end of Boston Street, with 4-inch services extending to each <br />property, excluding Orono Cemetery which has no need for sanitary sewer service. <br />Six-inch watermain will also be extended to the north end of Boston Street, with 1-inch <br />copper services extended to each of the three homes, 'and a 2-inch copper service <br />extended to Orono cemetery. Orono Lake is located just east of Boston Street; <br />therefore, the watermain will be transitioned to 10 feet west of the sanitary sewer to <br />avoid disturbance of the lake slope during construction. The depth of the utility trench <br />requires that all bituminous pavement be removed. Therefore, the road will be <br />reconstructed to the same width as existing. All other disturbed areas will also be <br />restored with sod. <br /> <br />Because Boston Street is a peninsula into Lake Orono, there is no opportunity to loop <br />the watermain. Also, due to the limited amount of traffic Boston Street carries, it is <br />recommended that the road reconstruction consist of replacing the street section that is <br />currently in place, that being approximately 22 feet wide with no curb and gutter. <br /> <br />V. IMPLEMENTATION CONSIDERATIONS <br /> <br />A. Easements and Permits <br /> <br />Permits from the MPCA and the Department of Health will be required. <br /> <br />All work will be within the existing 50-foot right-of-way. However, it may be <br />necessary to obtain temporary grading easements, and verbal permission will be <br />obtained in these instances. <br /> <br />B. Estimated Costs <br /> <br />The estimated construction and project costs for the proposed improvements are <br />shown in Table 1. <br /> <br />FEAS-801.210 ') 80121t~i <br /> <br /> <br />
