Fund (CWSRF) Loan Proceeds for Sanitary Sewer
Collection System and Wastewater Treatment Plant
Improvements
Item #’s:E-1 & I-1
Presenter(s):Jaye Monter, Finance Director
Marvin Strong P.E., Wastewater Plant Engineer

Michael Rogers, Gilmore & Bell, P.C.
Background
Public Works staff has been working with Black and Veatch and Olsson Associates to
develop and implement a 5 Year Wastewater Capital Plan for the City of Grand Island
based on the following:
The comprehensive plan in CH2M Hill’s “Wastewater Collection and Treatment
Systems Comprehensive Plan Update”
Black and Veatch’s “Wastewater Treatment Plant and Collection System
Improvements – Draft Technical Memorandum #2 Hydraulic Model Validation
and Analysis”
Wastewater Projects intended to accommodate growth
Examples of Wastewater projects included in the 5 Year Wastewater Capital
Improvement Plan are:
Plant – Headworks
Sanitary Sewer Collection System Rehabilitation
o South and West Interceptor Rehabilitation
o 4th and 5th Eddy to Vine Rehabilitation
o North Interceptor Phase I
Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 8 / 325
o North Interceptor Phase II
Growth – 281 Sanitary Sewer Improvements (District 530T)
Public Works representatives met with Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality
(NDEQ) representatives in December 2013 and explored the possibility of obtaining a
loan from the Clean Water State Revolving Loan Fund Program (CWSRF) administered
by the NDEQ in lieu of Revenue Bonds to pay for the remaining wastewater projects.
The NDEQ subsequently approved up to $40,000,000 in CWSRF funds at 2 ¼% -2 1/2%
for distribution over multiple years. Projects classified as “Green” receive a ¼% lower
interest rate.
Discussion
With the more favorable interest rates it is possible to advance the project schedule to
complete more projects sooner. Lift stations are high cost items that increase the creation
of damaging chemicals such as hydrogen sulfide (the chemical primarily responsible for
shortening the life of the Northeast Interceptor by more than 30%). The new headworks
and Phases 1 and 2 of the North Interceptor allow 8 lift stations to be abandoned.
Accelerating construction will allow an additional 3 lift stations to be abandoned, saving
operating costs and extending the life of the new infrastructure.
The council declared its intention to issue bonds for $60 million on May 14, 2013. A
Revenue Bond was issued on September 17, 2013 for $35,430,000. This is the only
outstanding wastewater debt. We will need an estimated $38,844,700, in addition to the
Revenue Bond issued last year, to finance the remaining portion of the ongoing
Wastewater Infrastructure Plan. Most of the remaining costs will occur when the North
Interceptor Phase 2 Project is bid later this year. We are asking the council to raise its
intention to issue debt from $60 million to $74,275,000 and recognize that up to
$40,000,000 of such borrowing is expected to be in the form of a loan from the CWSRF
Program administered by NDEQ. After the hearing held on June 10th and NDEQ’s 30
day comment period, it is expected that an ordinance will be presented to the City
Council at its July 22nd meeting to give formal approval to the NDEQ borrowing in a
principal amount of up to $40,000,000. With the new interest rates this will be within the
constraints of the rate study approved last year.
Alternatives
Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand. The Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 9 / 325
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council adopt the resolution to raise the
declaration of intent to issue debt from $60,000,000 to $74,275,000 and recognize that up
to $40,000,000 of such debt is expected to be borrowed from the Clean Water State
Revolving Loan Fund Program administered by the Nebraska Department of
Environmental Quality.
Sample Motion
Move to adopt the resolution raising the declaration of intent to issue debt from
$60,000,000 to $74,275,000 with up to $40,000,000 expected to be borrowed from the
Clean Water State Revolving Loan Fund Program administered by the Nebraska
Department of Environmental Quality.

2010 Capital Project Report
The CH2MHill Report listed wastewater
infrastructure projects totaling $115.17 Million, most
of it before 2020
We completed some of the projects, are working on
some of the projects, eliminated some of the projects,
postponed some of the projects and added new

5 Year Wastewater Infrastructure Plan
The current 5 Year Wastewater Infrastructure Plan
was developed using information in the CH2MHill
and Black and Veatch Reports and incorporating
input from the field. Black and Veatch used it to
update the earlier rate study.

North Interceptor Phase 2
•The North Interceptor Phase 2 project (current
construction estimate is $17,215,000) should generate
Regional Contractor interest and favorable pricing.
Favorable pricing is likely to be extended to any
additional projects that were bid around the same
time.

Lift Station Abandonments
The Headworks and North Interceptor Phase 1 and
North Interceptor Phase 2 projects make it physically
possible to abandon 8 Lift Stations including LS #19.
A total of 11 Lift Stations are planned to be
abandoned.

Lift Station Abandonments
The estimated Lift Station O & M savings for the 11
lift stations is $162,000 per year
The estimated Lift Station and Forcemain straight
line depreciation cost is $284,000 per year
Lift Stations are a potential source of Hydrogen
Sulfide, which is the primary reason we are replacing
the North Interceptor prematurely

NDEQ CWSRF Loan
The Black and Veatch Rate Study conducted last year
assumed 4.3% Bond Interest Rates
We asked Black and Veatch to re-visit the Rate Study
done last year to determine how much additional
work could be done within the constraints of that
Rate Study using the lower interest rates.

Subject:Public Hearing on Acquisition of Public Right-of-Way,
and Temporary Easements for the Capital Avenue –
Webb Road to Broadwell Avenue Widening Project
(State of Nebraska Department of Administrative
Services)
Item #’s:E-6 & G-9
Presenter(s):John Collins PE, Public Works Director
Background
All agreements must be approved by the City Council.
On May 24, 2011, by Resolution No. 2011-124 the City of Grand Island and the
Nebraska Department of Roads (NDOR) entered into an agreement for the Capital
Avenue– Webb Road to Broadwell Avenue widening project. This agreement specified
the various duties and funding responsibilities of this Federal-Aid project. The
agreement required that NDOR Standards and Specifications are to be used for design,
construction inspection and quality control.
The Capital Avenue – Webb Road to Broadwell Avenue Widening Project will consist of
reconstructing the existing 24-foot-wide, two-lane roadway to a 62-foot-wide, five-lane
roadway from Webb Road to Broadwell Avenue. This will require shifting the roadway
centerline north to avoid impacts to residential homes. Other improvements include storm
sewer construction, updated roadway lighting, relocation of overhead and underground
utilities, construction of new sidewalk to current Americans with Disabilities Act standards,
and construction of a concrete pedestrian/bike trail through the corridor.
On August 13, 2013, by Resolution No. 2013-264, City Council approved entering into an
agreement with the State of Nebraska Department of Administrative Services for
acquisition of right-of-way, permanent easements and temporary easements that were
required for construction of the North Interceptor Phase II, Part B, Project No. 2013-S-4.
Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 60 / 325
Discussion
Right-of-way is required to allow for the construction of sidewalk conforming to
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards and for signal pole reconstruction at
the intersection of Webb Road. Five (5) temporary easements are required for minor
grading/shaping work and for relocating the west driveway to the United Veterans Club.
The right-of-way and temporary easements are being acquired solely for the roadway
improvement project. The right-of-way and temporary easements are shown in the
attached exhibit.
The full agreement with the State of Nebraska Department of Administrative Services for
acquisition of the right-of-way and temporary easements is attached for reference.
Olsson Associates recently submitted final plans to NDOR for review. Acquisition of
right-of-way and easements is planned to be completed in July of 2014. Relocation of
utilities is anticipated to begin in the winter of 2014/2015. Roadway construction is
anticipated to begin in late spring of 2015.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
Public Works Administration recommends that the Council approve a resolution
authorizing the Mayor to sign the agreement.
Sample Motion
Move to approve authorization for the Mayor to sign the agreement.

Council Agenda Memo
From:Robert J. Sivick, City Attorney
Meeting:June 10, 2014
Subject:Consideration of Vacating a Portion of N. Wheeler
Avenue
Item #’s:F-1
Presenter(s): Robert J. Sivick, City Attorney
Background
Earlier this year the City of Grand Island (City) Legal Department received an inquiry
from the Downtown Business Improvement District 2013 (BID) regarding the legality of
placing a statue in the park like area located at the intersection of Third Street and N.
Wheeler Avenue in Downtown Grand Island. The Legal Department responded it would
provide an answer once the relevant documents were examined. Those documents would
consist of the Ordinance vacating the street where the park like area is located and the
agreement regarding the maintenance of the park like area by the BID.
After an exhaustive search it was determined no written maintenance agreement existed
between the City and the BID and the portion of N. Wheeler Avenue where the park like
area is located meaning it was never vacated. The only evidence of any official action
consisted of a Resolution approved by the Grand Island City Council (Council) on April
10, 1989 directing “[t]he City of Grand Island shall take appropriate steps to close
Wheeler Street between South Front Street and Third Street for development of the
Wheeler Street Project, including a pedestrian mall and parking area.” No further
subsequent action was taken by the Council to vacate N. Wheeler Avenue between Third
and W. South Front Streets but at some point the pedestrian mall and parking area were
developed.
Discussion
Vacating N. Wheeler Avenue between Third Street and W. South Front Street is
necessary to legitimize the existing situation. The Ordinance before you for consideration
this evening does so but unlike other instances of the City vacating streets, the real estate
upon which the street sits will not be conveyed to the owners of abutting property.
Rather, the Ordinance specifically states the City reserves title in said real estate subject
Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 89 / 325
to existing easements, rights of way, and license agreements. This insures no private
individual or entity will be able to sell, rent, or deviate from the present use of N.
Wheeler Avenue between Third and W. South Front Streets without the approval of the
Council. In addition, it will allow the City in the future to reestablish that portion of
Wheeler Avenue and open it to vehicular traffic or convert it to any other use it sees fit.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Move to approve.
2.Move to reestablish that portion of N. Wheeler Avenue between Third Street
and W. South Front Street as a street open to vehicular traffic.
Recommendation
The City Administration recommends the Council approve Ordinance No. 9492 vacating
N. Wheeler Avenue between Third Street and W. South Front Street.
Sample Motion
Move to approve Ordinance No. 9492 vacating N. Wheeler Avenue between Third Street
and W. South Front Street.

Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 118 / 325
Council Agenda Memo
From:Timothy Luchsinger, Utilities Director
Meeting:June 10, 2014
Subject:Water Main District 458T – Platte Valley Industrial Park East –
Certificate of Final Completion
Item #’s:G-7
Presenter(s):Timothy Luchsinger, Utilities Director
Background
Platte Valley Industrial Park East (PVIP-E) is located on the west side of Blaine Street, between
Schimmer Drive and Wildwood Drive. PVIP-E is a 280 acre tract of land being developed by the
Grand Island Area Economic Development Corporation.
Water Main District 458T was authorized by the Council to provide municipal water service
adjacent to the properties, thereby making the area more attractive for commercial and industrial
usage.
In October, 2010 the City Council approved funding assistance for installation of infrastructure
from a grant from the Nebraska Department of Economic Development. The monies were
provided from the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Disaster Recovery Program.
At the same time, additional funding was also allocated from the Local Area Economic
Development LB 840 Program.
In January, 2014 the Nebraska Department of Economic Development approved allocation of
unused grant dollars from the Blaine Street Paving Project to be used by the City toward the
water and sewer lines installed for the PVIP-E development project.
Discussion
As a cost savings from the economy of scale, a joint Utilities/Public Works Contract was
prepared for construction of water and sewer lines to the PVIP-E area. Specifications for the
project were developed and bids advertised and received in accordance with the City Purchasing
Code.
On April 10, 2012, The Diamond Engineering Company of Grand Island was awarded the joint
contract. The contract consisted of installing 8,700 feet of sanitary sewer and 8,500 feet of 16”
diameter water main. The bid award was based on the least total cost for the entire project (water
main and sanitary sewer).
Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 119 / 325
Attached is the Engineer’s Certificate of Final Completion for Water Main District
458Tverifying that all construction has been completed in accordance with the terms, conditions,
and stipulations of the contract, plans, and specifications.
The total project cost for the water main construction was $856,068.68. The City has just
received final grant disbursements for the project. The funding assistance includes: $334,762.00
from the original Community Development Block Grant; $32,909.00 from the amended Grant
reallocation; $36,985.00 for easement reimbursements from the EDC; and $119,758.45 from LB
840 funding. The total funding assistance for Water Main District 458T is $524,414.45.
The remaining balance of $331,654.23 will be charged to the properties receiving benefit within
the district’s boundary. Those connection fees are due when a property “taps” the water main for
service. This is the City’s standard method used to recoup costs when water mains are installed
across undeveloped lands. The connection (tap) fee for properties within the boundary of Water
Main District 458T is $21.510958 per front foot.
Attached for reference are copies of the tabulation of construction costs for Water Main District
458T; a tabulation of connection fees for the properties within District 458T, and the district’s
boundary plat.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand. The
Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council accept the Certificate of Final Completion for
Water Main District 458T and sit as a Board of Equalization on July 8, 2014, to establish the
connection fees for the properties within the district.
Sample Motion
Move to accept the Certificate of Final Completion for Water Main District 458T and sit as a
Board of Equalization on July 8, 2014, to establish the connection fees for the properties within
the district.

From:Terry Brown PE, Assistant Public Works Director
Meeting:June 10, 2014
Subject:Approving Certificate of Final Completion and
Scheduling the Board of Equalization for Sanitary Sewer
District No. 527T – Platte Valley Industrial Park
Item #’s:G-14
Presenter(s):John Collins PE, Public Works Director
Background
This was a combined project of the City’s Public Works and Utilities Departments for the
installation of sanitary sewer lines and water main to provide municipal utility
infrastructure to the Platte Valley Industrial Park Site. The project is located in 280 acre
tract of land purchased by the Grand Island Area Economic Development Corporation,
more commonly known as Platte Valley Industrial Park-East. The development area is
located between Gold Core Drive and Blaine Street, and between Schimmer Drive and
Wildwood Drive. Attached for reference is a map showing the construction area.
Funding assistance was provided for the project from the 2010 Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) Economic Development Program in the amount of $935,000. This
Block Grant required a City’s matching fund of $1,275,000. On October 26, 2010 the
City Council approved authorizing the application for the Economic Development Grant
from the Nebraska Department of Economic Development. Additionally, $575,000 in
Local Area Economic Development LB 840 funds were allocated to the project.
The contract for Sanitary Sewer District No. 527T was awarded to The Diamond
Engineering Company of Grand Island, Nebraska on April 10, 2012, in the amount of
$484,384.60. Work on this project commenced in May, 2012 and was completed in
January, 2013.
Discussion
Sanitary Sewer District No. 527T was created as a special economic development activity
for development of a business/industrial park/site which will eventually be occupied by
eligible benefited businesses.
Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 178 / 325
The project provided nearly one mile of extended 18”, and 15” sanitary sewer service
along the length of Wildwood Drive and Schimmer Drive, between Gold Core and Blaine
Street.
The connection fees for Sanitary Sewer District 527T are computed based on the
construction being done as a “Tap” district. This is the standard method used by the City

Presenter(s):John Collins PE, Public Works Director
Background
The City is required to have a planned schedule for upgrading public sidewalk ramps to
conform to American with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. The current schedule and
budget will bring the City into compliance in approximately 23 years.
Reconstruction of ramps is required in conjunction with street resurfacing activities, thus
the current schedule is to follow up a street resurfacing project with handicap ramps the
following year. With the 2012 street resurfacing locations not requiring reconstruction of
sidewalk ramps, the 2013 year handicap ramp project consisted of sites near elementary
schools in order for the City to stay on schedule. 2013 public sidewalk ramps were
reconstructed at Jefferson, Lincoln, Dodge, Wasmer and Gates Schools. This year’s
work is planned at the following locations.
SECTION A - Knickrehm School Area

The area of 4th & 5th Street, from Sycamore Street to Eddy Street qualifies for the
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and it is recommended that such funds
be used to install handicap ramps in this location during the 2014 construction season.
The City will be required to match 50% of the project cost, which is estimated to be
$800,000 at this time.
The Engineering Division put together a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) solicitation
package for eight (8) of the 2014 Capital Improvement Projects (CIP). The consultants
had the option to submit for as many or as few of the projects they felt their firm was
qualified for. The request was for design and construction engineering services to be
started by the end of the 2014 construction season for the selected projects. Each project
was evaluated on the predetermined criteria (detailed in the RFQ) and will be awarded to
the consultant that scores the best on that particular project, regardless of the consultant’s
qualifications on another project.

Frequently Asked Questions
Updated April 30, 2014
What are the Important Dates to remember?
Protest period ends – 5:00 p.m. Friday, May 30, 2014
City Council approval to continue district - June 10, 2014
Survey, prepare plans, specifications, and advertise for bids – Summer 2014
Begin Construction – Fall 2014
Completion – Summer 2015
How did the City arrive at the estimated cost for each property?
Estimated construction cost, engineering cost and costs such as right-of-way, easement, etc., are
used to calculate the total amount assessable. The assessable cost is then spread to the individual
properties included in the sewer district.
Why is there a difference in the cost?
Half of the assessed cost is distributed to the properties based on their frontage and half to each lot.
Front footage for assessments is the side of the property adjacent to the sanitary sewer main. If two
sides of a property are adjacent to the main, (such as a corner lot), the shorter side is used. In the
case of irregular shaped lots, an equivalent or average frontage is used.
What are the assessments?
The updated estimated assessment range is now $25,500 to $30,100. The average assessment is
$28,700. Figures are based on the last bid in August 2012. Options will be discussed at the public
meeting on reducing costs.
Will the Project install and hook up my sanitary sewer service?
NO. Plumbing from your house to the sewer main is the property owner’s responsibility. Individual
private sewer lines connecting your house to the public main may be contracted for between you and
your plumber at your cost. The plumber you hire will need to obtain a permit from the Public Works
Department for this connection.
Where will the sewer taps for my private service be located?
A City representative will work with the property owners to coordinate the location where the service
line taps into the main. The project will build a service line riser on the public main to the property
line. The residents should work with their plumber to locate the service line prior to construction.
Is there a monthly utility fee that will be charged to the users of the sewer? If so, what will that
amount be per customer?
Yes, for those customers with a metered water supply the current monthly rate is $8.24 plus $2.52
per 100 cubic feet.
For those customers without a metered water supply the charge is $19.84 monthly.
Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 198 / 325
What is the payment schedule?
The normal payment schedule includes ten to fifteen annual installments at an amount not to exceed
7% simple interest and is determined by the Board of Equalization. The first payment is due 50 days
after the City Council levies the assessment against your property. This does not occur until after all
construction work has been completed and accepted by the City. Based on the above dates, the first
payment could be due in Fall 2015.
What kind of efforts are made to restore the disturbed ground to its original state?
A City representative will work with residents and the Contractor to ensure that personal property isn’t
damaged. Any improvements encountered in the public right-of-way and in the permanent easements
will be removed and set aside. No restoration will be made for those items.
Are there any Easements needed?
Temporary Construction Easements for access, excavation, materials, etc., may be needed. A City
representative will contact the affected property owner and negotiate the value of improvements within
the Temporary Construction Easements. This expense is included in the total assessable sanitary
sewer district cost.
Will the sewer line provide basement service?
It is possible that gravity flow service from basement locations may not be attainable in some portions
of this District. In these areas, a sewage lift pump such as you may now be using to lift sewage out of
your basement to your septic tank/drain field system may be necessary.
Can groundwater be pumped into the sanitary sewer system to keep my basement dry?
No. The discharge of dewatering water into the City Sanitary Sewer System is prohibited by City
Code.
Will the Contractor re-seed or re-sod the disturbed area?
The individual property owners will be asked to re-seed or re-sod this area to keep the assessment
costs down.
What affect do the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality Title 124, Rules and
Regulation, have on existing septic tank and leach field systems?
Replacement leach field systems will have to conform to the new rules and regulations which were
revised on October 3, 1999. The cost for a leach field that meets the new regulations will be
substantially higher than under the old regulations.
Where will your sanitary sewer service be located?
The sanitary sewer services are primarily located along the public street or in some cases in the back
or side yard.

#2014-156 - Approving Supplemental Agreement to the Temporary
Construction Easement Agreement for Tract 2 for the US-30
Drainage Improvement Project
Staff Contact: John Collins, P.E. - Public Works Director
Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 219 / 325
Council Agenda Memo
From:Scott Griepenstroh, PW Project Manager
Meeting:June 10, 2014
Subject:Approving Supplemental Agreement to the Temporary
Construction Easement Agreement for Tract 2 for the
US-30 Drainage Improvement Project
Item #’s:G-20
Presenter(s):John Collins, Public Works Director
Background
The purpose of the US-30 Drainage Improvement project is to construct storm sewer to
the detention cell at the former location of the Wasmer Elementary School from
connections on Second Street at Logan Street, Broadwell Avenue, and Madison Street.
The improvements will significantly reduce the likelihood of flooding during storm
events on Second Street. The project includes constructing drainage inlets on First Street
and Division Street between Logan Street and Madison Street, which will provide
drainage relief in those areas as well.
This project is receiving Federal Funding through the Surface Transportation Program
(STP).
On November 13, 2012, City Council approved Resolution 2012-333 authorizing the City
of Grand Island to enter into agreements for Temporary Easements and Leasehold
Agreements for 15 of the tracts that were necessary for the project to be completed.
The contract for construction of the project was awarded to Van Kirk Construction on
June 11, 2013. Work began on August 28, 2013.
Discussion
As per City Code Section §35-5 Service Pipes; Specifications; Laying, “service pipe laid
between the water main and the curb stop at the property line shall be built of continuous
construction without joints, unions, or splices.” Replacement of existing water service
pipe from the water main to the water meter in the residence that is impacted by
construction is considered a project cost.
Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 220 / 325
Storm sewer construction, replacement of the water service pipe and installation of a new
curb stop box for the property at 1701 West First Street, also referred to as Tract 2 in the
project plans, occurred in April of 2014. The plans indicated that the existing water
service pipe from the residence connected to the water main to the east under the
pavement of Broadwell Avenue. The new curb stop box would have been installed
without needing to replace any of the existing private water service pipe into the
residence. However, it was discovered that the existing service pipe turns immediately
south on the east side of the residence and connects into the water main at Division
Street.
Because the plans indicated the existing water service pipe connected to the water main
under Broadwell Avenue, the temporary easement agreement with the property owner of
Tract 2 did not include any compensation for hiring a licensed plumber to replace the
private water service pipe from the new curb stop box to the water meter inside the
residence.
As per guidance from the Nebraska Department of Roads, an offer for compensation to
the property owner to hire a licensed plumber was made in accordance with the Uniform
Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970. The amount
of the offer was based on an estimate of $4,500.00 provided by a licensed plumber.
Authorization of the supplemental agreement is contingent upon City Council approval.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council approve the Supplemental Agreement
to the Temporary Construction Easement Agreement for Tract 2 for the US-30 Drainage
Improvement Project.
Sample Motion
Move to approve the Supplemental Agreement to the Temporary Construction Easement
Agreement for Tract 2.

Council Agenda Memo
From:Scott Griepenstroh, PW Project Manager
Meeting:June 10, 2014
Subject:Approving Agreement for Temporary Construction
Easement & Leasehold Agreements for Capital Avenue
Widening – Webb Road to Broadwell Avenue
Item #’s:G-24
Presenter(s):John Collins PE, Public Works Director
Background
The City and the Nebraska Department of Roads (NDOR) entered into an agreement,
which was executed by the City on May 24, 2011 by Resolution No. 2011-124, which
specified various duties and funding responsibilities for the Capital Avenue – Webb Road
to Broadwell Avenue project. The agreement required that NDOR Standards and
Specifications are to be used for design, construction inspection and quality control.
This project will consist of removal of the existing 24’ wide asphalt roadway and
construction of new concrete pavement on Capital Avenue from Webb Road through
Broadwell Avenue. The new roadway will consist of five lane curbed concrete pavement.
Other improvements include construction of sidewalks and a concrete hike/bike trail,
updated street lighting, and construction of new storm sewer. A pedestrian signal will be
constructed approximately 1000’ east of Webb Road to provide for safe crossing for
users of the hike/bike trail.
This project will be coordinated with the North Interceptor Sanitary Sewer project.
Temporary Construction Easement & Leasehold Agreements are necessary for this
project to be completed, which must be approved by City Council.
Discussion
A temporary construction easement will be needed from 18 property owners and
leasehold agreements are needed from 5 tenants in this project area. All documents have
been signed and returned by the property owners and tenants. Authorization of the
documents is contingent upon City Council approval. Following is a summary of the
payments, totaling $36,701.00, for each of the properties.

#2014-165 – Consideration of Approving Maintenance Agreement
for N. Wheeler Avenue with the Downtown Business Improvement
District 2013
Staff Contact: Robert Sivick
Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 309 / 325
Council Agenda Memo
From:Robert J. Sivick, City Attorney
Meeting:June 10, 2014
Subject:Consideration of Approving Maintenance Agreement
Item #’s:I-4
Presenter(s): Robert J. Sivick, City Attorney
Background
Earlier this year the City of Grand Island (City) Legal Department received an inquiry
from the Downtown Business Improvement District 2013 (BID) regarding the legality of
placing a statue in the park like area located at the intersection of Third Street and N.
Wheeler Avenue in Downtown Grand Island. The Legal Department responded it would
provide an answer once the relevant documents were examined. Those documents would
consist of the Ordinance vacating the street where the park like area is located and the
agreement regarding the maintenance of the park like area by the BID.
After an exhaustive search it was determined no written maintenance agreement existed
between the City and the BID and the portion of N. Wheeler Avenue where the park like
area is located meaning it was never vacated. The only evidence of any official action
consisted of a Resolution approved by the Grand Island City Council (Council) on April
10, 1989 directing “[t]he City of Grand Island shall take appropriate steps to close
Wheeler Street between South Front Street and Third Street for development of the
Wheeler Street Project, including a pedestrian mall and parking area.” No further
subsequent action was taken by the Council to vacate N. Wheeler Avenue between Third
and W. South Front Streets but at some point the pedestrian mall and parking area were
developed.
For a number of years the BID has maintained the park like area at the intersection of
Third Street and N. Wheeler Avenue. Since the BID has done an exemplary job in
maintaining the area no complaints have ever been received by the Legal Department.
Discussion
Grand Island Council Session - 6/10/2014 Page 310 / 325
Approving the proposed Maintenance Agreement is necessary to legitimize the existing
situation. The Resolution before you for consideration this evening does so. Particular
noteworthy terms are as follows:
1.The term of the Agreement coincides with the present authorized term of
existence of the BID with both expiring on September 30, 2018.
2.The BID may use the park like area for events benefitting the community with the
following exceptions:
A.Political activities or events;
B.Religious activities or events excluding weddings or commitment ceremonies;
C.Commercial activities excluding commerce that takes place as part of an event
benefitting the community.
3.Political, religious, or commercial activities may still take place in the park like
area but approval of such is reserved to the City as part of its standard permit
process. This ensures such activities are regulated and approved on a content
neutral basis to minimize legal or constitutional issues.
4.The BID is permitted to install appropriate permanent fixtures and landscaping in
the park like area.
5.The BID will maintain the park like area by mowing grass, maintaining
vegetation, removing snow, ice, litter and debris, and maintaining permanent
fixtures.
6.The BID will obtain and maintain insurance covering damage, destruction, or
theft of any statuary it installs in the park like area.
7.Either the City or BID may terminate the Agreement upon providing the other
party thirty days written notice.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Move to approve.
2.Refer the issue to a Committee.
3.Postpone the issue to a future date.
4.Take no action on the issue.
Recommendation

exchange for the easement and release the City agrees to pay the Ponderosa Lake Estates
Subdivision Homeowners Association, Inc., twenty thousand dollars ($20,000.00).
