RESOLUTION NO. 69 -80
RESOLUTION AMENDING EXISTING STREET SURFACING POLICY
TO INCLUDE BITUMINOUS PAVING OF ALL DRIVEWAYS
WHEREAS, it has been the practice on residential street surfac-
ing projects to replace the disturbed portion of permanently surfaced
driveways, and
WHEREAS, the replacement surfacing consisted of hot mix asphalt
paving, and
WHEREAS, gravel driveways disturbed during construction were re-
placed with gravel or crushed rock, and
WHEREAS, it has been recommended by the Director of Public Works
in a memo to the City Council dated January 6, 1969 that the following
additions to the above policies be effected for all future construction:
1) All gravel, crushed rock or other driveways that are not
hard surfaced shall be replaced with bituminous surfacing
to the property line.
2) The cost for the first 1.5 feet from the gutter line
shall be charged against the cost of the project and
equally distributed.
3) The cost of the driveway more than 1.5 feet from the gutter
line shall be individually computed and added to the special
assessment for the specific property involved.
4) The resident shall have the prerogative of recommending a
driveway width to suit his garage situation. No boulevard
parking areas will be permitted or paved.
5) If a grade change necessitates removing an existing perma-
nent driveway surface beyond 1.5 feet from the gutter line,
this cost shall be charged against the street project and
equally distributed.
WHEREAS, these recommendations have been considered and are felt
to be in the best interests of the residents of the City of Brooklyn
Center,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City
of Brooklyn Center that the above described policy as it relates to
driveways on residential streets be carried out on uture construction
