RESOLUTION APPROVING NEW
STREET CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS
WHEREAS, City Staff recommends .various changes in street design
widths and thicknesses based on expected traffic generation over the life of
the pavement structure, so that the pavement breakup problems that the
City has been experiencing will be lessened; and
WHEREAS, developers, engineers, and business representatives have
had an opportunity to comment on these proposed changes to the street
construction standards; and
WHEREAS, implementation of these proposals means increased costs
during the construction stage but will result in longer street pavement life
with less long-term maintenance costs; and
WHEREAS, the proposed standards are similar to other community
standards around the State of Iowa.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City
of Ames, Iowa, that the proposed street design standards are hereby
approved and are effective for any construction that involves development of
