Title
Approving plans, specifications and Schedule of Assessments for North Pleasant View Road Assessment District - 2022. (AD 9)
Body
The City of Madison, City of Middleton, and WisDOT are partnered for the design and construction. The project will be constructed under a contract let by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT). The City of Middleton is the lead municipality for this project. The proposed project is planned for construction in the year 2022-2023.
The roadway geometry for the reconstruction of North Pleasant View Road from Timber Wolf Trail to Greenway Boulevard was approved by the Common Council on January 8, 2019, File ID 53830, RES-19-00009.
The basis for construction cost sharing participation is as follows:
1) Local Utilities: Each affected local municipality shall pay for 100% of the costs for installing or adjusting new or existing local utilities (sanitary sewer and water system).
2) Street Improvements: The WisDOT shall pay approximately 60% of the costs for excavation, aggregate, concrete curb and gutter, asphalt pavement, sidewalk, driveway aprons, shared-use path, storm sewer, stormwater quality features, street lights, traffic signals, pavement marking, traffic signing, terrace restoration and all other necessary street improvements for completion of the project, through administration of Federal funding. Federal Funds are limited to $ 11,203,631.00; any costs over this limit will be funded by the City of Madison and City of Middleton.
Agreements with the State of Wisconsin Department of Transportation for construction cost sharing defines the terms under which the City is awarded Federal funds and the agreement requires that the City indemnify the State of Wisconsin Department of Transportation. City APM 1-1 requires Common Council Approval whenever the City indemnifies another party.
The proposed indemnification language has been reviewed by the City’s Risk Manager. The City’s risk exposure is increased by this clause, but the exposure is covered by the City’s insurance policies, subject to their terms and conditions.
