1. Review of Engineer's Report - July 26. 04 Board members reviewed the
engineer's report made by Chris Lynch on July 26, 2004. The board members
were pleased with the report and felt it covered all the areas of concern and
pointed out cost saving remediation ideas for crowning the roads. The board
agreed that bring the roads in the service district up to borough code would be an
effective way to reduce the amount of run-off of silt and gravel that has been
identified as a major problem at the bottom of Three Sisters.
2. Develop Road Maintenance Plan: The board discussed developing a long
term road maintenance plan that would address the points made in the engineer's
report. It was felt that the owners of each property in the Service District should
be identified and be sent cover letters describing the issues; culverts needed,
blocked culverts, driveway grade and widths of driveways, potential problem
trees to be surveyed, drainage on the dumpster comer, and roadway crowning.
The board also discussed the potential cost of placing culverts across
driveways and the idea of matching 50% of the cost with the owners to bring the
identified driveways up to borough code.
Dave Sundberg will survey the trees along the road ways that might present
electrical hazards or interfere with ditching efforts.
Chaz will check the driveways of proper grade % and identify the driveways that
are contributing to the run-off problem.
Drew will check the culverts and identify those culverts in the Service District in
need of maintenance, blocked culverts and the properties that do not have
driveway culverts contributing to the run-off problem and road way degradation.
Bruce will check with DOT about developing a plan to divert the runoff from
Monashka Bay Road onto Three Sisters.
Darlene will meet with Brechen (Service District Maintenance contractor) and
present the engineer's report and develop cost sheet for the maintenance identified
in the report.
FY 05 Bud\:et;
The 06 budget was discussed and a tentative budget proposal was developed. This
is based on current income and does not reflect the amount of work that will be
necessary to bring the roadways up to borough code. The possibility of raising
the mill rate was discussed and will be acted on after the report from Brechen, the
road maintenance plan is developed and another public hearing is called on 2-23-
05.
