Analysis/Strategic Goals/Pro's 8 Con's: The Board approved an application in September, 2005 to construct Jacobsen Drive, Graceland Way, Goldenview Drive, Kingfisher Place, and Sweet Home Road on public rights-of-way in the Plat of Irondale Acre Tracts. The rights-of-way are 60 feet wide. They provide access to 44 parcels. A map of the project area is attached. In order to access the public road system, Jacobsen Drive was extended approximately 450 feet easterly from the Plat boundary to Oak Bay Road. The proponent conveyed a 60 feet wide easement to Jefferson County for this right-of-way. The roads and drainage facilities were constructed to the County's adopted standards in 2005 and 2006. Public Works reviewed the road and drainage plans and inspected construction. The project engineer certified that construction conformed to the project plans and submitted mylar record drawings. Sweet Home Road was chip sealed by Public Works at the proponent's expense in 2007 and 2009. The other roads were paved with hot mix asphalt at the proponent's expense in 2007. Department of Public Works O Consent Agenda Page 2 of 2 There are two stormwater management ponds that detain runoff from Jacobsen Drive. These facilities will be maintained by Public Works. The proponent conveyed an easement for Public Works to maintain the ponds. The proponent has furnished a maintenance bond in the amount of $39,000 to cover road and drainage system defects for one year after the roads are accepted. Fiscal Impact/Cost Benefit Analysis: By accepting these roads into the County road system, the County wilt be responsible for maintenance and operation of the roads/ditches/drainage systems within the right of way and easements. Typically, activities associated with maintenance/operations include pavement preservation, ditching, brush cutting/mowing, sign replacement/upkeep, snowplowing, pavement marking, storm cleanup, and overhead costs. Currently, these costs run approximately $11,000 per mile of county road and have increased by about 5% per year in recent years. Currently, paved roads are chip sealed on a 15 to 20 year cycle depending on condition. This would be the single largest future cost associated with these new roads. There is no significant revenue source associated with this action. Recommendation: Public Works recommends that the Board adopt the Resolution accepting the roads and placing them on the County Road Log.
