All improvements, constructed on Wright County and City of Monticello lands, shall be,
and remain the property of Wright County and The City of Monticello. All materials,
including records, data, and other information acquired, developed or documented
under this MOU shall be the property of the originating party, unless otherwise mutually
agreed upon by both parties.
Term of Agreement
The term of this MOU shall start January 1, 2013, and extend through December 31,
2013. Wright County and MORC can subsequently agree to extend this agreement on
an annual calendar year basis with the approval of both parties.
MORC Volunteers
Volunteers assigned to work under this agreement at the Bertram Chain of Lakes
Regional Park are volunteers of MORC and are covered under the policies and
procedures of MORC in relation to volunteer organization and management. Volunteers
are not employees of or individual volunteers of Wright County or The City of Monticello,
however they will receive training enabling them to represent the relationship between
MORC, Wright County, and The City of Monticello.
MORC Responsibilities
1. Provide technical support to Wright County and The City of Monticello in
determining the location and design of technical features for the Mountain
Bike Trail, consistent with the planned ability level of the trail segment in
accordance with the International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA)
guidelines.
2. Provide and supervise volunteers in the construction of approved technical
features and alignment changes.
Utilize tools owned by MORC, Wright County, and The City of Monticello
tools that may be made available by the designated Wright County or City
of Monticello Maintenance Supervisors.
Technical features and alignment changes must conform to IMBA
guidelines and Wright County and City of Monticello approved designs.
Train and supervise volunteers in appropriate construction techniques in
accordance with IMBA guidelines.
Identify a crew leader and submit name to the designated Park
Maintenance Supervisor.
Coordinate work schedule and on-site public notification, when needed,
with the designated Park Maintenance Supervisor.
MORC volunteers may use bikes in the on-site planning and testing of
technical features prior to official trail opening as coordinated with the Park
Maintenance Supervisor.
3. Provide volunteers to assist with the inspection and hand-work maintenance
of the trail.
Seasonally submit to Wright County and the City of Monticello for approval
a schedule identifying minimum timetable for trail observation/inspection.
Ensure that all volunteers have received training in trail inspection and
maintenance responsibilities as well as an orientation to Wright County
and the City of Monticello.
MORC volunteers are authorized to sculpt and/or remove downed trees
found on the trail tread.
Perform routine maintenance activities. In the event that MORC is unable
to safely and promptly address an identified issue that may create an
unsafe situation, the MORC volunteer should notify the Park Maintenance
Supervisor..
4. Use of Chainsaws and Tree Removal by MORC Volunteers.
Only individuals who MORC has designated as “chainsaw operators” will
be allowed to operate chainsaws on Wright County and the City of
Monticello properties. Such designation will only be granted to individuals
who have been trained by MORC in the safe and proper use of
chainsaws, and outfitted with proper personal protective equipment
No live standing trees of native species over 4 inches (except Oak trees,
which shall be at 2 inches or greater) in diameter will be cut without first
receiving approval from the designated Park Maintenance Supervisor.
Brush and small trees that are cut should be scattered at least 10 feet off
the trail and lopped up so that no portion extends more than 3 feet above
the ground.
Large trees up to 12 inches in diameter that fall across the trail may be cut
to clear passage for the bike trail but the remaining portions of the trees
should be left in place provided it’s safe to do so.
MORC shall notify the designated Park Maintenance Supervisor when
there are fallen trees greater than 12 inches in diameter that need to be
cleared from the bike trail. Wright County and/or City of Monticello crews
will be responsible for clearing such trees.
5. Provide and supervise volunteers for the purpose of winter trail grooming,
maintenance, and inspection.
Routine trail inspection and maintenance shall be conducted during the

inspection log report sheet for use by volunteers for the regularly scheduled
inspections that will identify desired items for inspection and implement the
use of this report sheet in the regular inspection of trails.
Copies of reports should be submitted to the Parks Maintenance
Supervisor.
7. Prior to making any trail alignment changes, submit recommendations to
Wright County and the City of Monticello for any significant trail alignment
changes that may contemplated by MORC in carrying out the volunteer duties
as outlined in the MOU. Changes that do not need Wright County approval
are within 10 feet of the existing trail centerline and shorter 50 feet in length.
Any planned reroute within 20 feet of a wetland will require Wright County and
City of Monticello approval.
8. Recommend to Wright County and the City of Monticello for consideration the
types, location and language for trail directional, cautionary and informational
signs and install (if requested by Wright County and the City of Monticello).

5K. Consideration of adjusting the quarterly water billing for metered irrigation
systems. (TK)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
The City has 143 commercial/industrial facilities in the City that have separate water
meters for their irrigation systems. Under the City’s old utility billing system, all water
meters had to be set up to bill every quarter and to bill a minimum amount if usage was
below 3,740 gallons. During the winter months, even though no water was used, these
irrigation meters were billed a minimum bill on top of their regular water usage.
The City’s new utility system will allow the City to bill irrigation meters differently from
the regular water meters. This can be done one of two ways. First option, the billing
system can be set up to bill the irrigation meters only during certain quarters; namely the
summer quarters between April and September. The problem with this is, if for any
reason water were to be used in the months of October through March, the customer
would not be billed for that water usage until July of the following year, which is when
the 2nd quarter (April through June) is billed.
The second option and, from a financial perspective, the most favorable would be to
remove the minimum bill requirement from these meters and bill on per gallon of water
used. That way if any water is used, the customer would be billed for that water during
that quarter. However, it would mean there would no longer be minimum bills for
irrigation systems. If no water is used, no charges would be generated. The customer or
account would still have a minimum bill and charges for any other water use.
Any change would take place with the next billing in October.
A1. Budget Impact: In both cases, the City would loss approximately $4,218.50 in
revenues for the minimum bills these irrigation meters currently generate during
the two winter quarters. To make up for the lost revenue staff will propose a rate
increase as part of the 2011 budget process.
A2. Staff Workload Impact: There is no staff impact as it would be a change to the
rate table set in the utility billing software.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. Motion to approve the option for removal of a minimum water consumption
billing on irrigation meters and bill for actual water used.
2. Motion to approve the option to only bill irrigation meters for certain quarters and
not during the winter.
3. Motion to not change the current billing system for irrigation meters.
City Council Agenda: 8/9/10

C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
City staff recommends Alternative 1 and approve removal of minimum water
consumption billing on irrigation meters.

Dear Mayor and City Council Members:

needed, along with project assessments.
I would be happy to discuss this report with you at your convenience. Please feel free to call me at

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
City Project No. 12C002 consists of the extension of West 7th Street between Minnesota Street
and Elm Street, where currently the roadway does not exist. The roadway connection will
provide a more direct connection between East CR 39 and the properties along West 7th Street
between Interstate 94 and 6th Street, thereby providing an alternate route to Chelsea Road and/or
West 6th Street between East CR 39 and TH 25. This connection will also serve to complete the
frontage road system north of Interstate 94, which was previously identified as a requirement for
constructing a new interchange along Interstate 94 on the west side of the City by both MnDOT
and the Federal Highway Administration. The roadway extension will also provide access and
utility service for development of the adjacent properties in the area. A map of the project area is
included on Figure 1 in Appendix A.
This extension of West 7th Street, which is approximately 1/4 mile in length, is proposed to be
constructed as a 44-foot-wide urban section with curb and gutter and bituminous pavement. A
bituminous pathway is proposed to be constructed along the north side of the road, similar to
East 7th Street. An alternate meandering pathway alignment located away from the roadway
toward the pond was also evaluated. It is also proposed to extend sidewalk along the north side
of existing 7th Street from Minnesota Street, east to the mid-block crossing at the Ridgemont
Apartment complex. This sidewalk will provide a direct connection to the proposed trail along
West 7th Street with one street crossing at Minnesota Street. LED streetlights are also proposed
to be constructed with the project, similar to the lighting system installed in 2011 along East 7th
Street. Boulevard trees are also proposed along both sides of the roadway.
Grading of the adjacent site, between the proposed roadway and I-94, was also evaluated in order
to design the elevation of the roadway. Full site grading of this property was considered to be
included with the project to make the property more easily marketed and developed, as well as
manage the grading of the site; however, Riverwood Bank, who is the mortgage lienholder for
the property, has chosen to minimize their expense and complete only minimal grading to
accomplish the roadway construction at this time.
Sanitary sewer and water main are proposed to extend along the roadway to serve adjacent land
development. A regional storm water pond is also proposed to be constructed with this project
as identified in a previous hydrologic study completed for the area. This study addressed the
need to construct the pond to provide flood storage and increased storage for runoff due to the
limited capacity of the downstream storm sewer system. These pond improvements were
intended to be made with the adjacent areas developing.
A traffic analysis was completed addressing potential improvements needed with the extension
of West 7th Street and is addressed in this report. Improvements to Elm Street, including
upgrading and paving the roadway, south of 7th Street, were considered and addressed in the
report.

City staff has met with the mortgage lienholder (Riverwood Bank) of the three adjacent
undeveloped properties as illustrated in Figure 9 in Appendix A. Based on our discussions, they
intend to market these properties for development as soon as possible and would, therefore,
prefer that the proposed improvements be completed in 2013. As such, they are willing to
negotiate terms and conditions for donating the right-of-way and being specially assessed for any
improvements that might benefit these properties. The property south of West 7th Street,
between Kmart® and the Minnesota Street right-of-way, is also held by the same lienholder.
Staff believes it make senses for the City to vacate the Minnesota Street right-of-way, while
retaining a drainage and utility easement, to provide them with one contiguous property south of
West 7th Street between Kmart® and Elm Street. There is an excess piece of the City-owned
property south of the proposed street right-of-way that is proposed to be exchanged with
Riverwood Bank to provide additional ponding easement needed for the regional pond that is in
excess of the ponding they need to accommodate their sites. Riverwood Bank would also
provide the necessary right-of-way for the extension of West 7th Street, as would the City-owned
site. Staff has developed a letter of agreement outlining the terms of these items that will be
provided to the Council.
Staff has also met with the property owner of the Monticello Village Apartments (IRET
Properties) and is in the process of securing an easement from them for the roadway for a small
remnant piece in the southwest corner of their property. This easement was identified in the
deed for the property when the apartment project was developed and will be provided at no cost
to the project.
The extension of West 7th Street between Minnesota and Elm Streets is identified as a proposed
improvement in the City’s Transportation Plan and is also included in the City’s current five-year
Capital Improvement Plan as a proposed improvement for 2013. The total estimated project cost
for completing the work defined herein is $1,265,600. These costs include a 10% contingency
and 25% indirect costs.
Funding for the proposed improvements will likely include a mix of sources including deferred
special assessments to Riverwood Bank, State Aid funds, previously approved TIF funds, street
reconstruction funds, City revenue sources, electric franchise fees, and sewer and water funds.
Special assessments would only be proposed for properties identified as having the ability to
directly access the extension of West 7th Street. Since West 7th Street is on our Municipal State
Aid System, the street improvements and a portion of the storm sewer improvements will be
eligible for State Aid funding. The City’s current State Aid fund balance is $990,850.
This project is necessary, feasible, and cost-effective from an engineering standpoint and can be
constructed as proposed herein.

2. INTRODUCTION
2.1 Authorization
The preparation of this report was authorized by the City Council on August 27, 2012. Since
that time, staff has been meeting with the adjacent property owners to secure the right-of-way
and easements needed for the project. This project is identified in the City’s Transportation Plan
and included in the City’s five-year Capital Improvement Plan. This project has been designated
as City Project No. 12C002.
2.2 Scope
The scope of this feasibility report includes the extension of 7th Street between Minnesota Street
and Elm Street to include grading, street, trail, sidewalk, street lighting, sanitary sewer, water
main, storm sewer, and ponding improvements. A traffic analysis was also completed to address
the impacts of the roadway extension. A pavement forensic report was also completed for
existing 7th Street between Elm Street and Golf Course Road. Improvements to Elm Street were
also evaluated. In addition, meetings with adjacent landowners to secure right-of-way,
easements, and assessments are in progress.

3. EXISTING CONDITIONS
3.1 Existing Site and Soil Conditions
The existing topography of the vacant Riverwood Bank site consists of an elevated knob located
near 7th Street and Elm Street. A bluff is located near the midpoint of the proposed roadway
alignment that drops off significantly to a “benched” area before another drop to the existing
pond. The remainder of the site is fairly flat but would require grading to make a suitable and
developable site.
A total of eight (8) soil borings were taken in the fall of 2012 to provide subsurface soil
conditions for the proposed project site. Of the eight (8) borings taken, two (2) were taken in the
location of proposed pond expansion and five (5) were taken along the alignment of the proposed
West 7th Street extension. The remaining boring was taken at an alternate location to provide
information in consideration of a potential alternate alignment for the roadway. Groundwater
was encountered in four (4) of the eight (8) borings but the depths at which the groundwater was
encountered was below the excavation depths required to construct the proposed improvements.
It should be noted that most of the borings were taken when groundwater is typically low so
groundwater elevations are likely higher than the borings are indicating. As such, this report
assumes that dewatering will not be an issue during construction, and that sump pumps should be
sufficient for dewatering.
All borings that were taken indicated the presence of approximately 1 foot of topsoil underlain
by sand and silty sand soils. The underlying materials are suitable for roadway and utility
construction. The existing topsoil and surface vegetation will need to be stripped prior to
grading the site. The topsoil can then be used to topdress the slopes and grade prior to stabilizing
the site for vegetation.
Boring 5, taken near the midpoint of the proposed roadway, indicated the presence of some
materials that were slightly organic in nature. It is thought that these soils are present due to
“sluffing” off of the slope that has occurred over the years. The proposed alignment indicates
raising the roadway over this boring location. The Geotechnical Evaluation Report recommends
excavating any organic soils within 3 feet of any pavement subgrade. This is to provide a
minimum 3-foot separation between the organic material and the bottom of the aggregate base
section to allow for adequate drainage. It is assumed, at this time, that if the separation
requirement is met, these soils will be stable enough to provide compaction for the newly placed
fill.
The borings also indicate that the existing soils appear suitable for the support and bedding of
utilities. The Geotechnical Evaluation Report, including all soil borings, is included herein as
Appendix C.

As part of the project considerations, 7th Street from CR 39/Golf Course Road to Elm Street was
investigated to determine whether pavement rehabilitation was necessary at this time. WSB
performed four (4) corings and found 5¾ to 6¾ inches of bituminous on top of 2 to 4 inches of
aggregate base. It was determined that the existing pavement section is performing adequately
and that additional improvements to this existing roadway segment are not necessary at this time
given the project increase of traffic on this roadway with the extension of West 7th Street. The
findings of the Pavement Forensics Report are in Appendix D.
3.2 Streets
West 7th Street, east of Minnesota Street, is 44 feet in width with curb and gutter and was
constructed in 1990. A sidewalk exists along the south side of the roadway and is contained
within the 80-foot right-of-way. A mid-block striped crossing exists across 7th Street for access
to the Ridgemont Apartment complex. Some street lighting exists, but additional lighting is
recommended. This will be evaluated during final design.
West 7th Street, west of Elm Street, is 44 feet in width primarily within 80 feet of right-of-way.
The urban street section with curb and gutter was constructed in 1979. Sealcoating was
completed in 1985 and again in 2009. Street lighting does not exist on this segment of 7th Street.
A street lighting project is recommended in this area at some point in the future that has yet to
be evaluated.
Minnesota Street is 36 feet in width from face-of-curb to face-of-curb. It was partially
constructed in 1986 and 1990 and is within 66 feet of right-of-way. There is an existing
sidewalk present along the east side of the roadway.
Elm Street between Golf Course Road and West 7th Street is a State Aid route and was
reconstructed in 2003 with a seal coat completed in 2009. The roadway is currently 36 feet in
width from face-of-curb to face-of-curb within 66 feet of right-of-way. This segment of Elm
Street is in good condition and is not recommended to be improved with the current extension of
7th Street. Based on the future traffic projections, the roadway section should be able to
accommodate the future traffic volumes but should continue to be evaluated based on the City’s
pavement management practices.
Elm Street, between West 7th Street and where it terminates north of I-94, is a non-State Aid
route and exists as a 32-foot-wide gravel rural section roadway currently with two properties, the
Monticello RV Center and a private residence, that access the roadway. The City grades the
roadway two to three times a year, and has placed new gravel on the roadway and re-graded the
ditches within the last five years. In the past, the City has evaluated paving the roadway to
improve erosion issues; however, the adjacent property owners were unwilling to contribute to
the cost to support the project. In addition, there is a relatively small amount of traffic on the
roadway totaling approximately 185 vehicles per day; therefore, paving the roadway has not
been identified as a priority project for the City.

3.3 Storm Sewer/Drainage
A hydraulic study was completed in 1990 to determine the ponding needs for future development
of the 7th Street Watershed, which includes the proposed project site and all of the sites
Riverwood Bank currently owns on either side of Minnesota Street. The regional ponding
location for this watershed is located north of the proposed West 7th Street extension, where the
existing pond is located west of the Monticello Village Apartments. When the Monticello
Village Apartment site was developed, a pond was constructed to accommodate storm water
runoff and provide flood storage due to the low elevation of the site. The pond currently has
capacity for 2.02 acre-feet of storage. The pond outlets to the trunk storm sewer along Maple
Street which is very shallow and may be subject to overtopping as the storm sewer system is at
capacity.
The ponding and flood storage needs for the 70.5-acre watershed identified in the 1990 study
were determined to be 14 acre-feet of storage. The pond will need to be expanded by
approximately 12 acre-feet in order to meet this capacity requirement. The proposed pond
improvements are discussed in section 4.3 of this report.
Elm Street, at Interstate 94, is a rural section which conveys storm water runoff via roadway
ditches to the intersection with 7th Street where it then enters a collection system in the urbanized
portion of Elm Street. The conveyance system then discharges to a channel that flows to the
storm water pond located adjacent to the Monticello Village Apartments complex.
Surface water runoff from the undeveloped project location site flows either to Elm Street,
Minnesota Street, or to the existing pond.
3.4 Water Main
A 12-inch ductile iron pipe (DIP) water main currently exists at the intersection of 7th Street and
Minnesota Street. The water main was installed in the mid-1980s and early 1990s with
approximately 8 feet of cover. Water main does not exist on 7th Street between Minnesota Street
and Locust Street. An existing 10-inch DIP water main exists along the rear of the lot located in
the southeast quadrant at Minnesota Street and 7th Street which provides service to the old
Kmart® building. This water main can be seen on Figure 4 in Appendix A.
An 8-inch DIP water main exists at the intersection of 7th Street and Elm Street. This water main
was installed in 1978, also with approximately 8 feet of cover. Water main was extended along
Elm Street, south of 7th Street, in 2000 to service the RV Center and adjacent residential
property.

3.5 Sanitary Sewer
A 12-inch polyvinyl chloride (PVC) sanitary sewer exists along Minnesota Street adjacent to the
proposed West 7th Street extension. The gravity sewer was installed in the mid-1980s and early
1990s at depths from 10 to 15 feet.
Adjacent to the proposed street extension on Elm Street is an 8-inch PVC gravity sewer. The
sewer flows to an 18-inch trunk reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) trunk main along the north side
of the site (between the proposed pond and the former Ruff Auto site) to Minnesota Street. This
sanitary sewer eventually flows to the lift station at West Bridge Park. This network of sanitary
sewer was constructed between 1986 and 2000 and ranges from 10 to 20 feet in depth. Sanitary
sewer manholes along the north side of the project site may require adjustments during the
grading work due to the proposed pond improvements.
3.6 Land Use
The properties affected by the proposed improvements of the West 7th Street extension are a mix
of multi-family residential and non-residential properties.
The West 7th Street extension is zoned B-3 on the south side of West 7th Street and high-density
residential on the north side of the proposed street extension.

4. PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS
4.1 Street Improvements
4.1.1 West 7th Street Extension
West 7th Street is proposed to be extended from Minnesota Street to Elm Street, a
distance of approximately 1,400 feet. The roadway would be designed to State Aid
standards and is proposed to be 44 feet in width from face-of-curb to face-of curb within
an 80-foot right-of-way. The typical section for West 7th Street can be seen on Figure 2
in Appendix A, and all the proposed surface improvements are shown on Figure 3 in
Appendix A.
The roadway is being extended in part to provide a thru connection between Minnesota
Street and Elm Street, but also to provide access to, and allow for future development of,
the lot south of the proposed extension. As identified in the City’s Transportation Plan,
access points to the site could be located at 500-foot minimum spacing, as 7th Street is
designated a major collector roadway. Access locations will, at minimum, meet this
spacing requirement but will be dependent upon the future development of the site. Curb
cuts will not be constructed with this project to provide some flexibility with these
locations when development plans are forthcoming.
The proposed roadway would be designed so that the horizontal and vertical alignments
would meet the requirements associated with a 35 mph design speed. The proposed
design includes filling an existing depression approximately 17 feet to meet the vertical
curvature design requirements. This elevated profile will allow for increased developable
area for the Riverwood Bank site, as the roadway will more closely match the elevation
of the vacant property. The additional fill material required to achieve the desired
elevations is anticipated to be obtained from the site grading associated with the roadway
and pond construction. As part of the grading required raising the roadway and
constructing the pond, mass grading of the Riverwood Bank site was investigated in order
to prepare a site that was ready for future development. The costs associated with this
grading work were shared with the property owner, and they decided not to pursue
grading of their site at this time.
Boulevard trees will be planted along both sides of 7th Street as part of the proposed
improvements. LED street lighting, similar to the East 7th Street lighting improvements,
will also be installed as part of the project improvements should the project move
forward. Consistent with past practice, the streetlight component would be bid separately
from the project.

4.1.2 Elm Street
Improvements to Elm Street south of 7th Street were evaluated as the segment may serve
as a potential side-street access point to the Riverwood Bank property. An urban 32-foot-
wide, face-of-curb to face-of-curb section and a 24-foot-wide rural paved section utilizing
the existing gravel surface for shoulders were evaluated. The estimated cost for paving
the roadway and leaving it a rural section is $33,000 and the estimated cost for an 32-
foot-wide urban section roadway with curb and gutter and storm sewer improvements is
$154,000. These potential improvements were discussed with Riverwood Bank;
however, they have opted to not include these improvements with the current project.
The letter of agreement with Riverwood Bank stipulates that upon development of their
site, the roadway will need to be upgraded or a deposit will need to be made for a future
upgrade of the street.
As noted previously, the properties adjacent to Elm Street on the west side have not been
in favor of contributing to upgrading the roadway in the past.
4.1.3 Pedestrian Improvements
4.1.3.1 West 7th Street Pedestrian Trail (Base Alignment)
A 10-foot-wide bituminous trail is proposed to be constructed along the north side
of the West 7th Street extension terminating at Elm Street within the right-of-way.
An 8-foot, tree-lined boulevard area between the roadway and the edge of the trail
is proposed. The construction of the trail would be consistent with the City’s Park
and Trail Plan.
The typical section of the proposed 7th Street extension within the right-of-way
accommodates a 6-foot-wide concrete sidewalk to be constructed along the south
side of the roadway as the adjacent site develops.
City staff is planning for a future trail extension along Elm Street to CR 39 to
extend to the Bertram Chain of Lakes identified in the City’s Park and Trail Plan.
4.1.3.2 West 7th Street Pedestrian Trail (Alternate Alignment)
An alternate alignment for the proposed 10-foot-wide bituminous trail was
investigated to provide a nonlinear or nontraditional trail route to promote a more
recreational-based trail alignment. Allowing the trail to meander naturally, follow
existing contours, and wind around both built and natural features will provide a
highly-pleasing trail experience and may also improve the safety of the trail users.
The alternate alignment would vary from the standard boulevard width to
meander and descend toward the pond and then back up to the roadway. This
alternate alignment will be evaluated during final design.

4.1.3.3 7th Street Sidewalk
A 6-foot-wide, concrete sidewalk is proposed to be extended from Minnesota
Street to the east, approximately 320 feet along the north side of the existing 7th
Street to the mid-block crossing at the Ridgemont Apartment complex. This
sidewalk extension will also provide a direct connection with one crossing at
Minnesota Street to the proposed trail along West 7th Street.
4.2 Traffic Analysis
A traffic analysis was conducted documenting the existing traffic volumes on 7th Street and
adjacent roadways, the projected 2030 traffic volumes, and the anticipated traffic control at Elm
Street and Walnut Street.
Existing traffic counts were collected the week of November 12, 2012, at the intersections on 7th
Street at Golf Course Road (CR 39), Elm Street, and Walnut Street. In addition, 48-hour
directional tube counts were also conducted at locations on 7th Street and Elm Street. Figure 7
in Appendix A shows the existing traffic volumes counted and the 2012 State Aid traffic
volumes from the MnDOT traffic volume map.
On opening day when 7th Street is complete and open to traffic, it is projected that the traffic
volumes would be in the range of 2,000 to 2,500 vehicles per day. As development progresses in
the area, traffic volumes will increase and the full build-out volumes are noted in the next
paragraph.
Future 2030 traffic volume projections were prepared using the City’s Transportation Plan model
assuming the 7th Street extension was constructed. Based on the modeling, it was determined
that at full build-out of the area, 7th Street would carry approximately 13,000 vehicles per day
between TH 25 and Walnut Street; 7,000 to 8,000 vehicles per day between Walnut Street and
Elm Street; and 3,500 vehicles per day between Elm Street and Golf Course Road (CR 39). Elm
Street would carry approximately 5,500 vehicles per day between Golf Course Road and 6th
Street and 4,000 vehicles per day between 6th Street and 7th Street. Figure 8 in Appendix A
shows the projected 2030 traffic volumes.
A review of the traffic projections found that with the new 7th Street connection, traffic on the
following adjacent roadways would have reduced traffic from what was previously anticipated:
6th Street from Elm Street to Walnut Street
Minnesota Street from 6th Street to 7th Street
Walnut Street from 6th Street to 7th Street
Golf Course Road from Elm Street to 7th Street
Intersection traffic control options were reviewed for 7th Street at Elm Street and 7th Street at
Walnut Street. This included two-way stop control, all-way stop control, traffic signal control, or
a roundabout.

7th Street at Elm Street: An all-way stop or traffic signal would not be warranted based on the
traffic conditions at the time of opening. As traffic continues to increase on 7th Street and Elm
Street, an all-way stop control may be warranted in the future. A single-lane roundabout was
also evaluated for the intersection. Figure 3 in Appendix A shows a concept layout for a single-
lane roundabout. With the potential for a high number of vehicles turning left from Elm Street to
7th Street and the reverse right turn from 7th Street to Elm Street, this would be an appropriate
traffic control for the intersection in the future as development progresses in the immediate area
and as traffic volumes increase on Golf Course Road due to development south of I-94. It is
unknown when these volumes would be realized; therefore, a two-way stop control, stopping the
Elm Street approaches, is recommended at this intersection. Right-of-way for the intersection is
planned to be acquired to accommodate the future roundabout concept.
7th Street at Walnut Street: Current traffic volumes do not warrant an all-way stop or a traffic
signal system at this intersection; however, based on the 2030 traffic projections, the intersection
may meet warrants in the future. Should a signalized intersection be considered at the
intersection, coordination with MnDOT on interconnection with the TH 25 signal and review of
the existing driveway accesses along 7th Street, specifically between TH 25 and Walnut Street,
will need to be completed. With the existing traffic volumes, all-way stop warrants were met for
6 of the required 8 hours. Based on this analysis, the existing two-way stop control should be
maintained and additional study be completed after the proposed 7th Street connection is
completed and the new traffic patterns have been established.
Based on the analysis of existing and projected traffic volumes, the following can be concluded:
1. A two-lane roadway (one lane in each direction) will be adequate to accommodate the
anticipated future traffic conditions on 7th Street. The roadway section should include
two, 12-foot through lanes and two, 10-foot shoulders. The addition of turn lanes on 7th
Street and adjacent intersecting roadways should be evaluated as development plans
move forward and additional traffic volumes are estimated.
2. The intersection of 7th Street and Elm Street should be constructed as a two-way stop
condition stopping the Elm Street approaches. As traffic increases, an all-way stop
should be re-evaluated. Right-of-way should be provided to accommodate a potential
roundabout in the future.
3. The intersection of 7th Street at Walnut Street should be maintained as a two-way stop
control, stopping the Walnut Street/Cub Foods entrance approaches. As traffic increases
on 7th Street and Walnut Street, the City will need to work with MnDOT on the lane
configuration and traffic control from Walnut Street to TH 25. This may include an all-
way stop or traffic signal system that would be interconnected with the TH 25 signal
system. It should also be noted that improvements to the intersection of TH 25 and 7th
Street, as identified in the City’s Transportation Plan, would also be evaluated in
conjunction with this.

4.3 Storm Sewer and Ponding
Storm sewer is proposed to be constructed along the extension of West 7th Street to
accommodate runoff from the roadway and the adjacent developable sites based on a 10-year
storm sewer event as shown on Figure 3 in Appendix A. The storm sewer system is proposed to
extend from Minnesota Street to the west towards Elm Street. The storm sewer system would
then be discharged into the proposed pond, which would consist of an expansion to the existing
storm water pond adjacent to the Monticello Village Apartments. As noted in section 3.3, the
pond will need to be expanded by approximately 12 acre-feet (ac) in order to provide the needed
capacity. Approximately 9.7 ac-ft can be accommodated with this project on the Riverwood
Bank property, with the remaining 2.3 ac-ft to be provided with the former Ruff Auto site
development located to the north. The pond will provide storm water treatment for
approximately 18 acres of the developable Riverwood Bank properties east and west of
Minnesota Street, south of West 7th Street.
The pond design includes excavating to a pond bottom elevation of 926.2 in order to provide
adequate freeboard and flood storage to protect the low elevation of the Monticello Village
apartment complex. Additional excavation of the pond may be needed to generate enough fill
material for the roadway. Additional excavation will also provide for water quality treatment in
the pond.
Storm sewer stubs are proposed to be extended from the proposed storm sewer along West 7th
Street to allow for connection to the developable area between West 7th Street and I-94,
including accommodating storm water ponding needs for the 4 acres of Riverwood Bank site east
of Minnesota Street and south of 7th Street.
In addition, the existing storm sewer at the northern edge of the project site discharges into an
existing channel. This channel exhibits the characteristics of a wetland. As part of the proposed
pond expansion, this channel/wetland will need to be filled. Due to the nature of the filling and
the fact that this was not a created wetland, the City, as LGU, can issue a “No Loss Decision”
and allow for the filling of this wetland without the requirement for mitigation.
4.4 Water Main Improvements
It is proposed to provide a connection between the existing 12-inch water main on Minnesota
Street and the 8-inch main on Elm Street by constructing a 12-inch DIP main along the proposed
alignment of West 7th Street as shown on Figure 5 of Appendix A. It is also proposed to provide
8-inch water main stubs to the property south of the roadway for future development.
4.5 Sanitary Sewer Improvements
Sanitary sewer is proposed to be extended from the existing facilities from both Elm Street and
Minnesota Street along the proposed alignment of West 7th Street as shown on Figure 5 of
Appendix A. It is also proposed to provide 8-inch sanitary sewer stubs to the property south of
the roadway for future development. The 8-inch sanitary sewer mainline and service stubs
would be constructed at elevations to provide flexibility to service future development.

4.6 Private Utilities
A Gopher One Call was completed in September of 2012 to identify the utilities that are in the
vicinity of and adjacent to the project area. Staff has not yet met with these utilities regarding
this project, but if the City Council approves the preparation of plans and specifications, staff
will meet with the private utility companies to discuss the proposed improvements. Staff would
then coordinate the extension and installation of private utilities within the roadway right-of-way
to provide service to potential future development.
4.7 Permits
Permits required as part of the proposed improvements are anticipated as follows:
MPCA General Stormwater Permit (NPDES) .............. NPDES Stormwater
MPCA .................................................................. Sanitary Sewer Extension
MDH ..................................................................... Water Main Construction
4.8 Rights-of-Way/Easements
The current property owners within the project area as well as the right-of-way and easements
needed for construction are noted on Figure 4 of Appendix A.
A majority of the right-of-way and ponding area needed is within the Riverwood Bank property.
The property south of West 7th Street between Kmart® and the Minnesota Street right-of-way is
also held by the Riverwood Bank. Staff believes it make senses for the City to vacate the 66-
foot-wide Minnesota Street right-of-way to provide them with one contiguous property south of
West 7th Street between Kmart® and Elm Street. A drainage and utility easement should be
retained over this vacated right-of-way as the City has existing sanitary sewer, water main, and
storm sewer facilities that are still functional and will require maintenance into the future. In
addition, a storm sewer forcemain through this easement will need to be extended with
development of the site to accommodate a future outlet for what is known as the TH 25 pond
system, south of I-94. This is identified in the City’s Capital Improvement Plan.
There is an excess piece of the City-owned property south of the proposed street right-of-way
that is proposed to be exchanged with Riverwood Bank to provide additional ponding easement
needed for the regional pond that is in excess of the ponding they need to accommodate their
sites. Riverwood Bank would also provide the necessary right-of-way for the extension of West
7th Street, as would the City-owned site. If the alternate trail alignment is chosen, Riverwood
Bank would provide a separate trail easement for this.
Preparation of the final plat for the roadway and adjacent Riverwood Bank property is required
to be prepared to secure the necessary right-of-way needed in order to move forward with the
project this year. Riverwood Bank has verbally agreed to share half of the platting costs.
Because this project is anticipated to use State Aid funds, the right-of-way must be acquired or
platted prior to obtaining State Aid approval.

Staff has met with the property owner of the Monticello Village Apartments and is in the process
of securing an easement from them for the roadway for a small remnant piece in the southwest
corner of their property.
As noted previously, right-of-way on the west side of Elm Street at 7th Street should be acquired
to accommodate the future roundabout concept at the intersection.
The potential costs for any other easements have not been included in this feasibility report.

5. FINANCING
5.1 Opinion of Cost
A detailed opinion of probable cost for the proposed improvements can be found in Appendix B
of this report. These opinions of probable cost incorporate anticipated 2013 construction costs
and include a 10% construction contingency and 25% indirect costs. The indirect costs include
legal, engineering, administrative, and financing items. A summary table of the proposed project
costs for the extension of West 7th Street is shown below in Table 1. The estimated project cost
totals $1,265,600.
TABLE 1
Proposed Project Costs
West 7th Street Extension
SCHEDULE TOTAL
Schedule A – West 7th Street Extension $506,300
Schedule B – Water Main $183,600
Schedule C – Sanitary Sewer $93,500
Schedule D – Storm Sewer $203,400
Schedule E – Ex. 7th Street Sidewalk Extension $32,800
Schedule F – West 7th Street Trail $37,000
Schedule G – LED Street Lighting $96,300
Schedule H – Pond Grading $112,700
TOTAL PROJECT COST – WEST 7TH STREET $1,265,600
5.2 Funding
5.2.1 Assessments
A portion of the project costs is proposed to be recovered via a special assessment
agreement with the Riverwood Bank properties. It is proposed that Riverwood Bank
would be assessed for a portion of the street improvements to include all of the frontage
on the south side of the West 7th Street extension and a portion on the north side of the
roadway. Riverwood Bank would also be assessed a portion of the storm sewer costs
based on their contributing front footage or contributing drainage area of their sites and
100% of the sanitary sewer and water main costs since these utilities would only serve
their adjacent developable area only. The terms of the assessment include a deferred
assessment for the improvements until the property is developed for up to 10 years with
no interest and will allow the developer to transfer the development agreement terms to a
potential buyer. The assessment would commence upon the end of the deferral period or
at time of development, whichever occurs first. Staff has developed a letter of agreement
outlining the terms in more detail that will be provided to the Council.

Special assessments would only be proposed for properties identified as having the ability
to directly access the extension of West 7th Street. There are two properties (Springborg
and IRET) that front West 7th Street that currently are not proposed to have access from
West 7th Street. It is proposed to not assess these properties for the 7th Street
improvements, as it is unlikely they will request an access in the future due to the
topography and limited accessibility to these sites. It should be noted that the proposed
agreement with the Monticello Village Apartments (IRET) includes language that if they
request an access from West 7th Street, then an assessment would be levied at that time.
A summary of the proposed funding is presented below in Table 2.

TOTAL $850,340 $415,260 $1,265,600
5.2.2 City Contribution
Funding for the proposed improvements will likely include a mix of funding sources
including special assessments, State Aid funds, previously approved TIF funds, street
reconstruction funds, City revenue sources, electric franchise fees, and sewer and water
funds. Electric franchise fees will be utilized to fund the street lighting improvements.
More detail on some of the contributing City funds is as follows:
TIF: On October 22, 2012, the City Council approved $450,980 from the reallocation of
TIF 1-5 to be applied to this project for covering a large part of the deferred assessments.

WSB Project No. 1627-510 Page 17
State Aid Funds: Available State Aid funds could be utilized for the extension of West
7th Street to include street improvements and a portion of the storm sewer improvements.
Each year the City designates 20% of our streets as Municipal State Aid Streets that are
then eligible for State Aid funding. The current balance in the City’s State Aid account is
approximately $990,850. The estimated amount of State Aid funds that could be applied
towards this project is $660,000 for all street, lighting, and trail improvements and a
portion of the storm sewer and ponding improvements.
Trunk Funds: It is anticipated that the current trunk fund balance is available to fund the
sanitary sewer, water main, and storm sewer improvements.

Re: Geotechnical Evaluation
Proposed 7th Street Extension
Minnesota Street to Elm Street
Monticello, Minnesota
Dear Ms. Bisson:
We are pleased to present this Geotechnical Evaluation Report for the extension of 7th Street and the
associated utilities in Monticello, Minnesota. A summary of our results and recommendations is
presented below. More detailed information and recommendations follow the Table of Contents.
Summary of Results
Borings 1 and 2 were completed in the area of the proposed pond. Boring 1 encountered about 1 foot of
topsoil underlain by sand to a depth of 4 feet and lean clay below the sand. Boring 2 encountered about
1/2 foot of topsoil underlain by lean clay. Silty sand and sand were encountered below the clay in Boring
2 at a depth of 12 feet. Groundwater was observed in Boring 2 at a depth of 13 feet.
Borings 3 through 7 were conducted along the proposed roadway alignment, and Boring 8 was
conducted along an alternate alignment. Borings 3 and 5 encountered 3 and 8 feet of fill underlain by
sand and silty sand. Boring 4 encountered about 1 foot of topsoil underlain by poorly graded sand.
Borings 6, 7 and 8 encountered about 1 foot of topsoil underlain by silty sand to depths ranging from 3 to
4 feet. Poorly graded sand was encountered below the silty sand. Groundwater was observed at depths
ranging from 10 to 28 feet, corresponding to elevations ranging from about 927 to 929.
Summary of Recommendations
We recommend removing all surface vegetation and root zone from below the roadway. Topsoil and
existing organic fill soils should be removed from within 3 feet of the bottom of the aggregate base for
the pavement. These soils can be left in place below this depth provided they are stable enough to
permit compaction of the soils above. After grading is complete, it appears road subgrade soils will
consist of poorly graded sand and silty sand. We recommend designing the road for a silty sand subgrade
with an R value of 50.
Based on the borings and utility invert depths, the utility subgrade soils will likely consist of silty sand and
sand soils. These soils appear suitable for utility support. The poorly graded sand will be suitable for
bedding material. The excavated soils are generally suitable for use as backfill.

A. Introduction
A.1. Project Description
The project consists of extending 7th Street from Minnesota Street to Elm Street. The extension will
include a new bituminous-surfaced roadway, sanitary sewer and water main. The project also includes
construction of a storm water pond.
A.2. Purpose
The purpose of this geotechnical evaluation is to characterize subsurface geologic conditions at selected
exploration locations and evaluate their impact on the design and construction of the proposed roadway
and associated utilities.
A.3. Background Information and Reference Documents
To facilitate our evaluation, we were provided with a project site plan showing the proposed boring
locations. The plan was prepared by WSB & Associates, Inc. (WSB), and dated October 2012. Project
information including finish grade elevations and invert elevations were provided by Mr. Jeremy Koenen
of WSB.
A.4. Scope of Services
Our scope of services for this project was originally submitted as a proposal to Ms. Shabani Bisson of
WSB on August 22, 2012. Ms. Bisson authorized us to proceed on September 18. Tasks performed in
accordance with our authorized scope of services included:
Performing a reconnaissance of the site to determine drill rig accessibility.
Coordinating the locating of underground utilities near each boring location.
Performing eight penetration test borings to depths ranging from 15 to 30 feet along the
alignment and within the pond area.

Preparing this report containing a sketch, exploration logs, a summary of the geologic
materials encountered, and recommendations for roadway and utility subgrade preparation
and a recommended R value.
A.5. Locations and Elevations
WSB staked the proposed boring locations and provided ground surface elevations at each boring
location.
B. Results
B.1. Exploration Logs
B.1.a. Log of Boring Sheets
Log of Boring sheets for our penetration test borings are included in the Appendix. The logs identify and
describe the geologic materials that were penetrated, and present the results of penetration resistance
tests performed within them, laboratory tests performed on penetration test samples retrieved from
them, and groundwater measurements.
Strata boundaries were inferred from changes in the penetration test samples and the auger cuttings.
Because sampling was not performed continuously, the strata boundary depths are only approximate.
The boundary depths likely vary away from the boring locations, and the boundaries themselves may
also occur as gradual rather than abrupt transitions.
B.1.b. Geologic Origins
Geologic origins assigned to the materials shown on the logs and referenced within this report were
based on visual classification of the various geologic material samples retrieved during the course of our
subsurface exploration, penetration resistance testing performed for the project, laboratory test results,
and available common knowledge of the geologic processes and environments that have impacted the
site and surrounding area in the past.

B.2. Geologic Profile
B.2.a. Geologic Materials
Pond Area. Borings 1 and 2 were completed in the area of the proposed pond. The borings
encountered 1/2 to 1 foot of topsoil. Below the topsoil, Boring 1 encountered poorly graded sand to a
depth of 4 feet, which was underlain by lean clay. Boring 2 encountered lean clay, underlain by silty sand
and poorly graded sand at a depth of 12 feet. Penetration resistances in the clay ranged from 7 to 15
blows per foot (BPF), indicating it ranged from medium to stiff. Penetration resistances in the sand and
silty sand ranged from 6 to 46 BPF, indicating they ranged from loose to dense.
Roadway. Borings 3 through 7 were completed along the proposed alignment of the road. Borings 3
and 5 encountered 3 and 8 feet of fill, respectively, at the surface of the borings. The fill was underlain
by silty sand and poorly graded sand. A layer of lean clay was encountered from 12 to 17 feet in Boring
3. Boring 4 encountered about 1 foot of topsoil underlain by poorly graded sand. Borings 6 and 7
encountered about 1 foot of topsoil underlain by silty sand to depths of 3 and 4 feet. Poorly graded sand
was encountered below the silty sand. Penetration resistances in the silty sand and poorly graded sand
ranged from 4 to 32 BPF, indicating they ranged from very loose to dense.
Alternate Road Alignment. Boring 8 was conducted in an area of an alternative road alignment. The
boring encountered about 1 foot of topsoil underlain by silty sand to a depth of 4 feet. Poorly graded
sand was encountered below the silty sand. Penetration resistances in the silty sand and sand ranged
from 14 to 24 BPF, indicating they were medium dense.
B.2.b. Groundwater
Groundwater was observed in Borings 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7, at depths ranging from about 10 to 28 feet. These
depths correspond to elevations ranging from 927 to 930, except in Boring 2, where the observed
groundwater elevation was 920. Seasonal and annual fluctuations of the groundwater levels should be
anticipated.

C. Basis for Recommendations
C.1. Design Details
C.1.a. Utility Installation
New sanitary sewer and water main will be installed as part of the project. The sanitary sewer will have
invert elevations ranging from about 932 to 935. Water main will be installed at a depth of 8 feet.
C.1.b. Pavements and Traffic Loads
We anticipate traffic loads to primarily consist of automobile traffic with occasional large trucks
consisting of delivery truck and garbage trucks. Mr. Koenen indicated the road will have an average daily
traffic (ADT) of about 7,000 vehicles.
C.1.c. Anticipated Grade Changes
Based on our discussion with Mr. Koenen, grades of the roadway will range from about 942 to 954.
These grades will generally require cuts of 5 to 8 feet and fills up to about 17 feet.
C.1.d. Precautions Regarding Changed Information
We have attempted to describe our understanding of the proposed construction to the extent it was
reported to us by others. Depending on the extent of available information, assumptions may have been
made based on our experience with similar projects. If we have not correctly recorded or interpreted the
project details, we should be notified. New or changed information could require additional evaluation,
analyses and/or recommendations.
C.2. Design and Construction Considerations
The geotechnical issues influencing design of roadways and utilities appear to be limited to a few items
that are listed below.
The fill encountered at the surface in Borings 3 and 5 contains organic materials and should
not be relied upon as roadway subgrade soils. We recommend these soils be removed to a
depth of at least 3 feet below the bottom of the aggregate base, unless a minimum of 3 feet
of fill is placed to raise grades to get to subgrade elevation. The fill may be left in place
provided final grades will provide the minimum separation and the soils are stable enough to
permit compaction of the new fill.
WSB & Associates, Inc.
Project SC-12-04960
February 27, 2013
Page 5
When filling on slopes, the slope should be benched or flattened to a maximum slope of 4
horizontal to 1 vertical.
D. Recommendations
D.1. Pavement Subgrade Preparation
D.1.a. Excavations
We recommend removing all surface vegetation and root zone from below the pavements. The topsoil
and organic fill soils should be removed from within 3 feet of the bottom of the aggregate base for the
pavements. Excavation depths will likely range from 1 to 4 feet. If fill will be placed to reach desired
grades, the existing fill soils may be left in place provided they are stable enough to permit compaction,
and a minimum of 3 feet of separation will be provided between the existing fill and pavement subgrade.
D.1.b. Selecting Excavation Backfill and Additional Required Fill
On-site soils free of organics can be considered for reuse as backfill and fill. Imported material needed to
replace excavation spoils or balance cut and fill quantities, may consist of sand, silty sand, clayey sand,
sandy lean clay or lean clay. We recommend, however, that the plastic index of these materials not
exceed 15 and the liquid limit not exceed 48.
D.1.c. Placement and Compaction of Backfill and Fill
We recommend spreading backfill and fill in loose lifts of approximately 8 inches. We recommend
compacting backfill and fill in accordance with the criteria presented below in Table 1. The relative
compaction of utility backfill should be evaluated based on the structure below which it is installed, and
vertical proximity to that structure.
Table 1. Compaction Recommendations Summary
Reference
Relative Compaction, percent
(ASTM D 698 – standard Proctor)
Moisture Content Variance from
Optimum, percentage points
Below pavements, within 3 feet of
subgrade elevations 100 -1 to +3
Below pavements, more than 3
feet below subgrade elevations 95 -1 to +3
Below landscaped surfaces 90 -1 to +3

D.2. Pavements
D.2.a. R value
Laboratory tests to determine an R-value for pavement design were not included in the scope of this
project. Based on a silty sand and sand subgrade, we recommend an R-value of 50 be assumed for design
purposes.
D.2.b. Materials and Compaction
We recommend specifying crushed aggregate base meeting the requirements of Minnesota Department
of Transportation (Mn/DOT) Specification 3138 for Class 6. We recommend that the bituminous wear
and base courses meet the requirements of Specifications 2360, Type SP.
We recommend that the aggregate base be compacted to a minimum of 100 percent of its maximum
standard Proctor dry density. We recommend that the bituminous pavement be compacted to at least 92
percent of the maximum theoretical Rice density.
D.3. Utilities
D.3.a. Utility Subgrades
Based on the borings and the anticipated pipe invert elevations, we anticipate the soils encountered
along the proposed alignment will be suitable for pipe support. We anticipate most of the pipe
subgrades will consist of poorly graded sand or silty sand.
D.3.b. Excavation Side Slopes
It is our opinion that the native soils encountered by the borings can be excavated using a typical open-
cut method with a backhoe. At the anticipated excavation depths, the soils in the sidewalls of the
excavations will be Type C soils the under Department of Labor Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) guidelines, and appropriate excavation side slope guidelines should be followed.
D.3.c. Backfilling
We recommend that the utility trench excavations be backfilled in thin lifts with each lift being
compacted to a minimum of 95 percent of its standard Proctor maximum dry density, as determined in
accordance with ASTM International Test Method D 698. Within 3 feet of the bottom of the aggregate
base, the compaction should be increased to a minimum 100 percent of standard Proctor density.
WSB & Associates, Inc.
Project SC-12-04960
February 27, 2013
Page 7
Based on the soils encountered at the borings, onsite soils should generally be suitable for re-use as
backfill. Topsoil should not be used as backfill material. Moisture conditioning may be required,
however, in order to achieve the desired compaction levels.
D.4. Construction Quality Control
D.4.a. Excavation Observations
We recommend having a geotechnical engineer observe all excavations related to subgrade preparation
and pavement construction. The purpose of the observations is to evaluate the competence of the
geologic materials exposed in the excavations, and the adequacy of required excavation oversizing.
D.4.b. Materials Testing
We recommend density tests be taken in excavation backfill and additional required fill placed below
pavements.
We recommend Gyratory tests on bituminous mixes to evaluate strength and air voids, and density tests
to evaluate compaction.
We also recommend slump, air content and strength tests of Portland cement concrete.
D.4.c. Cold Weather Precautions
If site grading and construction is anticipated during cold weather, all snow and ice should be removed
from cut and fill areas prior to additional grading. No fill should be placed on frozen subgrades. No frozen
soils should be used as fill.
Concrete delivered to the site should meet the temperature requirements of ASTM C 94. Concrete
should not be placed on frozen subgrades. Concrete should be protected from freezing until the
necessary strength is attained. Frost should not be permitted to penetrate below footings.

E. Procedures
E.1. Penetration Test Borings
The penetration test borings were drilled with a truck-mounted core and auger drill equipped with
hollow-stem auger. The borings were performed in accordance with ASTM D 1586. Penetration test
samples were taken at 2 1/2- or 5-foot intervals. Actual sample intervals and corresponding depths are
shown on the boring logs.
E.2. Material Classification and Testing
E.2.a. Visual and Manual Classification
The geologic materials encountered were visually and manually classified in accordance with ASTM
Standard Practice D 2488. A chart explaining the classification system is attached. Samples were placed in
jars or bags and returned to our facility for review and storage.
E.2.b. Laboratory Testing
The results of the laboratory tests performed on geologic material samples are noted on or follow the
appropriate attached exploration logs. The tests were performed in accordance with ASTM or AASHTO
procedures.
E.3. Groundwater Measurements
The drillers checked for groundwater as the penetration test borings were advanced, and again after
auger withdrawal. The boreholes were then backfilled.
F. Qualifications
F.1. Variations in Subsurface Conditions
F.1.a. Material Strata
Our evaluation, analyses and recommendations were developed from a limited amount of site and
subsurface information. It is not standard engineering practice to retrieve material samples from
WSB & Associates, Inc.
Project SC-12-04960
February 27, 2013
Page 9
exploration locations continuously with depth, and therefore strata boundaries and thicknesses must be
inferred to some extent. Strata boundaries may also be gradual transitions, and can be expected to vary
in depth, elevation and thickness away from the exploration locations.
Variations in subsurface conditions present between exploration locations may not be revealed until
additional exploration work is completed, or construction commences. If any such variations are
revealed, our recommendations should be re-evaluated. Such variations could increase construction
costs, and a contingency should be provided to accommodate them.
F.1.b. Groundwater Levels
Groundwater measurements were made under the conditions reported herein and shown on the
exploration logs, and interpreted in the text of this report. It should be noted that the observation
periods were relatively short, and groundwater can be expected to fluctuate in response to rainfall,
flooding, irrigation, seasonal freezing and thawing, surface drainage modifications and other seasonal
and annual factors.
F.2. Continuity of Professional Responsibility
F.2.a. Plan Review
This report is based on a limited amount of information, and a number of assumptions were necessary to
help us develop our recommendations. It is recommended that our firm review the geotechnical aspects
of the designs and specifications, and evaluate whether the design is as expected, if any design changes
have affected the validity of our recommendations, and if our recommendations have been correctly
interpreted and implemented in the designs and specifications.
F.2.b. Construction Observations and Testing
It is recommended that we be retained to perform observations and tests during construction. This will
allow correlation of the subsurface conditions encountered during construction with those encountered
by the borings, and provide continuity of professional responsibility.
F.3. Use of Report
This report is for the exclusive use of WSB. Without written approval, we assume no responsibility to
other parties regarding this report. Our evaluation, analyses and recommendations may not be
appropriate for other parties or projects.

Drilling Notes
Standard penetration test borings were advanced by 3 1/4” or 6 1/4”
ID hollow-stem augers unless noted otherwise, Jetting water was used
to clean out auger prior to sampling only where indicated on logs.
Standard penetration test borings are designated by the prefix “ST”
(Split Tube). All samples were taken with the standard 2” OD split-tube
sampler, except where noted.
Power auger borings were advanced by 4” or 6” diameter continuous-
flight, solid-stem augers. Soil classifications and strata depths were in-
ferred from disturbed samples augered to the surface and are, therefore,
somewhat approximate. Power auger borings are designated by the
prefix “B.”
Hand auger borings were advanced manually with a 1 1/2” or 3 1/4”
diameter auger and were limited to the depth from which the auger could
be manually withdrawn. Hand auger borings are indicated by the prefix
“H.”
BPF: Numbers indicate blows per foot recorded in standard penetration
test, also known as “N” value. The sampler was set 6” into undisturbed
soil below the hollow-stem auger. Driving resistances were then counted
for second and third 6” increments and added to get BPF. Where they
differed significantly, they are reported in the following form: 2/12 for the
second and third 6” increments, respectively.
WH: WH indicates the sampler penetrated soil under weight of hammer
and rods alone; driving not required.
WR: WR indicates the sampler penetrated soil under weight of rods
alone; hammer weight and driving not required.
TW indicates thin-walled (undisturbed) tube sample.
Note: All tests were run in general accordance with applicable ASTM
standards.

Re: Pavement Coring and Borings Forensic Report
WSB Project No. 1627-51
City Project No. 12C002
Introduction
WSB & Associates is pleased to submit this forensics report detailing the results of the pavement
coring and soil borings which were obtained on November 19, 2012 along 7th Street between Elm
Street and Golf Club Road (CR 39). The various characteristics of the pavement cores and soil
borings were analyzed in order to determine the appropriate pavement rehabilitation associated with
the upcoming extension of 7th Street between Minnesota Street and Elm Street.
Several factors are considered when determining the number of pavement cores to be taken, including
the pavement condition or visible distresses present on the pavement and the variability of the
pavement depth as the cores are being completed. A total of four pavement cores and four soil
borings were taken within the roadway.
The locations of the pavement cores and soil borings are shown on Figure 1 and a summary of the
pavement depths, conditions and underlying soil classifications are shown on Table 1, within this
report. Pictures of the pavement cores, soil borings and roadway surface are shown in Appendix A
of this report.

Summary of Findings
Pavement coring identifies what exists under the visible layer of the pavement and can give a wealth
of information including depths of the pavement layers, signs of bonding or unbonding, and
distresses that might not be visible from the road surface. Borings along the roadways were used to
identify aggregate depths and soil classification to provide a better understanding of the roadway
section to determine the appropriate pavement rehabilitation technique.
Four pavement cores were taken on 7th Street West with bituminous depths ranging between 5.75
inches to 6.75 inches. A core was attempted to be taken on a crack in the pavement at the location of
Core #2 in order to see how the crack has migrated through the pavement. We were not able drill
through the pavement due to the crack sealant recently place on the roadway.
Four soil borings each were taken on 7th Street West. The soil borings showed a sandy Class 5 with
aggregate base depths ranging between 2.0 and 5.0-inches. Subsoil classifications showed some
rocks or gravel mixed in with the sand.
Recommendation
Based on the pavement cores obtained, 7th Street appears to be intact and in sound condition with
a thick bituminous layer. Based on City records, a crack seal and chip seal was completed in
2009. Currently the average daily traffic on the roadway is 50 vehicles per day with a projected
volume of 3,500 vehicles per day when 7th Street is extended between Elm Street and Minnesota
Street. The current pavement section will support the project traffic volumes, so an increase or
modification in the pavement section is not necessary. Given this information, and based on the
current condition of the roadway and the fact that a chip seal was completed in 2009, we would
not recommend rehabilitating the roadway at this time. The roadway would most likely be
sustainable for another 5 to 10 years before maintenance and/or rehabilitation of the roadway
should be considered.
In the future, it is likely that a mill and overlay of the roadway or even another crack seal/chip
seal would be needed. If a mill and overlay is considered in the future, we would recommend to
mill a minimum of 1.5” or to at least past the point of what appears to be an existing overlay or
separated layer of pavement shown on the pictures of Core #1 and #4.
It is important to note that these are simply recommendations based on the results of the pavement
cores taken. Factors such as the funding, increases to the projected traffic volumes, intended use and
future utility reconstruction/improvements should also be considered.
Thank you for this opportunity to perform this pavement forensics study for the City of
Monticello. If you have any questions, please contact us at 763-541-4800.
