Year in Review Street Projects Completed Seal Coating: The annual seal coating for 2001 included Jackson from Hwy. 169 to Main Street, Main Street from Hwy. 10 to Orono Bridge, Riverview Heights, Grandview Addition, Country Crossings III, Heritage Landing and Mississippi Oaks. Crack ffllin_~: The first line of defense in the war on potholes is typically done in the year prior to seal coating. The 2001 crack fill areas included Business Center Drive, Victoria Drive, North Meadows, Ranch Road, Fresno Street, Avon Acres, Nordic Hills, Ridgewood Hills, Mississippi Heights and 225t~ Avenue. Cold Mill Patcfies: In 2001, we used a different technique to patch cross cracks and depressions on Jackson Avenue. We used a cold mill planer attachment on our skid loader to cut into the bituminous, then switched the skid loader to a paver attachment that we built in our shop to patch the cut outs. The system proved to be very successful. Bituminous Patches and Overlay: Bauerly Brothers of Sauk Rapids paved the overlay project including the following assessed overlays: Victoria Lane, Sunset Ridge, 197th/198m Avenue from Evans Street to Ulysess Street, Paradise Park, Pinewood Addition, Freeport from School Street to Main Street, 221st Avenue from County Road 1 to Ridges of Rice Lake and Jarvis Street from County Road 70 to north city limits. Elk River Bituminous, Inc. applied paver patches in Heavenly Hills, Deerfield II, and 173rd and Tyler. Sfiouldeffn_~: City street crew shouldered the overlayed areas on 197th/198~h Avenue, Jarvis Street, 221st Avenue and 8m Street.. Su~ace Water Management: A contractor installed culverts at three sites: 197m Avenue near Zebulon, 2"d and Evans, and Simonet Drive. City crews built the catch basins and patched the bituminous at each site. Gravel Roads: Each year we try to add Class S to about one mile of gravel roads. In 2001, we used the allotted Class S to patch weak places on several of our gravel roads. Other Pro/ects: Rearrange our offices, remodel a shop mezzanine into a new break room. Move the mechanic shop from the east end of the building to the west end. Landscape the ice arena.
