HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - July 19, 1989 (56)TO : City Council FROM: City Manager NEETNG DATE: July 19, 1989 AGENDA TITLE: East Tokay Street Driveway Petition - Discussion and Appropriate Action RECOMMIENDED ANION: That the City Council: 1) approve guidelines for street design and driveway conflicts; 2) direct staff on enforcement of driveway encroachment violations; and 3) take no action on the East Tokay Street petition. EZRODLUIM- The City received the attached petition from 35 property owners i, the area of East Tokay Street asking the City, at its expense, to modify the street cross slope or the curb, gutter, and driveways to better provide access and to eliminate any problem with vehicles scraping the pavement or sidewalk. Due to scheduling conflicts on both parts, discussion has been delayed until this meeting. This petition is attached as Appendix 1. The problem with the cross slope on East Tokay Street was first brought to the City Council in 1987 by the staff when the City was determining hm best to improve East Tokay Street between Stcckton Street and Cherokee Lane w`Ith an asphalt overlay. Leona Miller, residing at 513 East Tokay Street, later brought her drivaway problem to the Council's attention after the project was completed . The cause for the attached petition was created when the City notified the property owner of 442 East Tokay Street that the obstruction they' recently placed in the gutter would have to be removed. The following is a description of that incident. On May 2, 1989, one of the City's Maintenance Workers observed a concrete obstruction being placed in the flow line of the curb and gutter on East Tokay Street. The Maintenance Worker, per our policies, informed his Supervisor who informed the Assistant Street Superintendent. The Street Superintendent went into the field and observed that a concrete obstruction had recently been placed in the curb and gutter in front of an apartment complex at 442 East Tokay Street. After determining the owner's name, he talked to the owner and indicated that an obstruction was not allowed by the City and that any work in the public right-oi-way needed an encroachment permit and that the obstruction would have to be removed. That day, the Street Superintendent confirmed this requirement in writing by sending the APPROVED: A. PETERSON, Ci CTOKAYII/TXTW.02M FILE NO. July i2, 1989 --1 City Council , East Tokay Street July 19, 1989 Page 2 attached letter of N1 2, 1989 (Appendix 2). Joon receivina he letter, the owner called the Street Superintendent, who was' out. The owner then cache in to talk to the Public Wo& Director. The owner brought the City letter together with pictures of other similar violations in the immediate area. Upon checking out the information received, the Public Works Director wrote the attached letter of X* 12, 1989 (Appendix 3), indicating that the concerns of the property owner had been reviewed and after reviewing the matter with the City Attorney, it was determined that the obstruction was an encroachment and in violation of the City Code and must be removed. The prcperty owner was then given additional time to remove the encroachment. I t was also determined by the City Attorney that because of the other similar encroachment brought to our attention, that those specific encroachments would have to be removed unless they were installed prior to our encroachment permit ordinance or unless they had an encroLchment permit authorizing the installation. At the same time, the City received the attachcj petition dated May 15. Enforcement of the encroachment violation was deferred until the petition could be heard by the City Council (Appendix 4). The purpose of thi3 report is to provide design guidelines for future street overlay projects, together with providing the City Council with the required information to answer the request under the petition and to deal specifically with the more recent encroachment at 442 East Tokay Street. BACKGROUND IC(ItMA EN Why Vehicles Scrape at Driveways Th order to Evaluate possible solutions to this problem, it is pertinent to review why and how vehicles scrape when using driveways. 'fhe following discussion is specific to Lodi and does not include situations that occur- .n moontai n or hilly communities. Most of the problems occur when the back portion of the vehicle drags on the pavement when the rear wheels are in or near the gutter (Case 1) . In some situations, the center of the vehicle drays on the driveway/sidewalk arca (Case 2) . In a few instances, the front of a vehicle may scrape when approaching the driveway or upon leaving if the vehicle backed in. Since the front clearance is usually greater than the rear and solutions tc Cases 1 and 2 would correct this case, it has not been considered separately. The contributing factors that detErmine whether or not a vehicle scrapes are summarized in Table 1 and shown graphically in Exhibit A, CTOKAYI 1 /TXT14.O""M July 12, 1989 City Council East Tokay Street July 19, 1989 Page 3 Table 1 Vehicle Scraping Factors & City Control Driver Characteristics 5 Speed X X Nene 6. Vehicle Condition X X None (tire inflation, modifications, trailer hitches, etc.) As can be seen in Table 1, the C ty has direct control over only one factor. (street cross .slope) and partial control over three others, mainly in setting standards and design criteria. 11 are interrelated and are discussed below: 1. Street Cross Slope - The standard for new construction, is 2.5% plus the gutter slope. 'Phis provides good drainage and is fairly typical in the Central Valley, although some agencies use as low as 1-1/2% without grinding. A typical maintenance overlay of 1" will add 2% or so and a heaviei overlay such as recently done on Tokay Street will add 4% or more. (Note - as discussed later and shown in the Exhibits, the effect of the gutter slope is included in the street cross slope. In new streets, the effective cross slope including the gutter is 4.4% as computed 4' from the flow line.) 2. Driveway Sloe (Rise) - The driveway slope or total rise from the gutter consists of the curb and sidewalk within the right. -of -way plus the driveway on private property. In new residential construction wit' rolled curb, the back of the sidewalk is 6" above the flow line. here are no standards for the private driveway slope which range from 2% to 5% and greater in some cul-de-sac lots. Thus, the total rise may vary from 7" (0.58') to 10" (0.83') measured at 10' from t?e gutter.

CTOKAY i 1/TXTW.02t" July '2, 1989 Citv Council East Tokav Street July 19, 1989 Pace 4 3. 1 -!heel base Length - The length of the vehicle de; . i res how the driveway slope raises the front of the car, thus lowering the rear end. Since nearly all vehicles are longer than the distance from the gutter to the back of sidewalk, the property owner's driveway slope can be critical. 4. Ground Clearance - At the back of the vehicle, this is expressed by the ,'n -le of Departure" (see Exhibit A) which varies considerably. I t takes into ac ;punt both the clearance to the bumper or any other lower component and the back overhang length. Nheelbase length ani: ground clearance combinations for two model years (1980 and 1988) of most domestic vehicles and some imports are shown i n Exhibit B. (Source: Motor Vehicle Manufacturer's Association of the United States.) Two "Design Vehicles" are shown which provide nearly a "worst case" short and long vehicle. In Case 1, the rear of the vehicle scrapes when the sum of the driveway slope and street cross slope equal the rear ground clearance as expressed by the "Angle of Departure" (see Exhibit A, Case 1). For a given vehicle, this relationship can be calculated. This is shown graphically in Exhibit C for the "Design Long Car" and "Design Short Car". The Design Vehicle will scrape for any combination of driveway rise and street cross slope above the line. For the given Oesign Vehicles, the "Long Car" controls design, thus the following discussion applies to the Design Long Car dimensions (120" wheelbase, 9.75° Angle of Departure}. Actual Experience The preceding discussion is essentially theoretical. As a test, 82 driveways were measured and evidence of scraping was noted. Driveways filled with asphalt , concrete, pipe, etc . are not included since aupl icable measurements could not be obtained. The results are shown in Exhibit D and summarized in Table 2.

The miscellaneous locations are in new areas where a problem should not exist. As Exhibit a shows, nearly all the actual locations showing a problem are above the calculated heavy line. Possible Solutions There are three general solutions to the driveway problem: Technique Description Solves A) Reduce the street This can be partially accomplished by Case 1 only cross slope grinding before an overlay or completely accomplished by rebuilding the street F3 using special grinding machines, the existing pavement can he lowered to partially offset the increase in thickness due to the overlay. This reduces the new cross slope. The effectiveness depends on the thickness of the overlay and the width of the grinding. Correcting the problem by rebuilding the street is cost prohibitive. I t would be analogous to replacing an asphalt composition roof on a house every 20 years or so instead of placing new shingles on top of the old ones once or twice. B) Replacing .the 1) Within the right-of-way only Case 2 only driveway 2) Extending onsite to reduce slope Cases 1 & 2 Replacing driveways to correct scraping problems has not been formally addressed by the City. In fact, as shown earlier, replacement would not solve the Case 1 problem without extensive work on private property to reduce the driveway slope. The decision on the Tokay Street project was to overlay the street and do minimal curb and gutter replacement to correct major drainage problems. The Counci I Communication from that meeting is attached as Exhibit F. I t was recoani zed that driveways for for the benefit of the private parcel. Under lona-time City CTCY,AY11/TXTW.02M July 12, 1989 C rty Council East Tokay Street July 19, 1989 Page 6 Technique Description policy, replacement of driveways with tax dollar_: was limited to street widenings and as necessary to correct drainage problems in conjunction with a City project. Solves c) Raising the gutter. This can be done by filling the gutter Cases 1 & 2 with asphalt concrete for. the entire block, constructing bridge -type driveways, or, if drainage patterns will allow, replacing all the curb, gutter, and driveways Fi lling the gutter with asphalt concrete was proposed as part of the Tokay Street overlay project in 1987. A t that time, it was recognized that the cost of correcting the then existing driveway deficiencies was prchibitive. (Replacement would have more than doubled the cost of the $100,000 paving project. ) W only found one local agency which has a standard design for "bridge -type" driveways which provide a smooth driveway and provide some drainage (see Exhibit E). There are many disadvantages to even the best bri dge-type driveway: A) They still plug up and block drainage. B) They impede vehicles attempting to park on the street. C) They disrupt street sweeping and leaf pickup and cause acditional wear on the brooms and higher maintenance costs. 0) Vehicles using them can be damaged if they miss the edge of the driveway. E) The metal plates (which must be removable for cleaning) can be knocked down into the drainage slot.

Past Practice F) The meta plates may rattle loudly when driven over. the residents on Tokay Street have found their own filling the gutter and driveway approach with concrete or Some made an attempt not to impede drainage by including a of some of the installations will be provided at the The Public Works Department does not have any records on how often this type of problem has occurred and what may have been done about it. The number of complaints has been minimal. Generally, if a problem existed after an overlay, it was there before also. W have occasionally done some minor, modifications after an overlay to reduce a newly created problem. After the Tokay Street project, a claim was filed by a resident and the matter heard by the City Council. The claim was rejected and the City offered to share in the cost of modifications to the driveway. It was recognized then that the modification would have to be extended on to the private parcel in order to correct the problem. The total costs ranged from $500 for a minimal job to $1,000 which would provide a standard 12' wide driveway. The Council minutes from that meeting of June 15, 1988 and follow-up letter are attached as Exhibits G and H. The property owner declined tc participate. The City has no formal design standards for overlays, nor do most other cities. A noted i n Exhibit F, we have not done very many thick overlays. Given what vie have learned, if we were to do the Tokay Street project now, re would do more grinding to reduce the cross slope before the overlay. Discussion I t may seem that nidi ado is being made over a relatively minor problem. However, having one's car scrape the street every time the driveway is used is a major annoyance. The question is, "How mach of the taxpayers money should be spent to correct and/or prevent the problem?" Simply saying, "Dc whatever is necessary to keep all cars from scr pin-" is not workable. Aside from not having enough money, it is not possible to design an overlay and guarantee that no vehicles will scrape. Certainly, our design techniques can be improved. For example, past designs called for grinding width of 3.5 feet. It appears now vie should use a minimum of 6 feet. A typical sequence of overlays is shown in Exhibit I. CT0KAY11/TXTW.02M July 12, 1989 City Council East Tokay Street July 19, 1989 Page 8 The practical solution, then, will involve some decisions as to what vehicle dimensions to accommodate, how much responsibility lies with the property owner, and how to handle existing situations that do not meet the standards. The recommendations made later are based on the following assumptions: 1. Worst case vehicle dimensions, per Design Vehicle Exhibit B. 2. The property owner i s responsible for deficient driveways. 3. The City will share in the cost of corrections for some intermediate cases. 4. Beyond some established maximum point, the City should correct the problem. 5. Existing problems will remain until the street is scheduled for rehabilitation or the property owner wishes to pay for the work. Recommendations Staff recommends the following guidelines pertaining to street cross slope and driveways be followed on new projects: A. Where the cross slope (as measured from the flowline to 4' out) will exceed 13%, the design will be changed to reduce the slope or include driveway modifications. If this requires a substantial. change in the project budget, it will be brought back to the City Council. B. Where the cross siope will be over 10%and less than 13%, the project will be brought to the City Council with various alternatives. C. Where the street cross slope will not exceed 10%, the project will proceed as usual. For existing situations, the following is recommended: A. Problems solely due to driveway construction (Case 2) are the responsibility of the property owner. B. Encroachments and other illegal driveway modifications shall be abated as done in tt;e past. This would include the one a t 442 East Tokay and any others found to be newly installed. In the past, the City has assumed existing violations were installed prior to the encroachment ordinance adoption in 1966. The Council could direct staff to establish a "grandfather date" such as the completion of the Tokay Street project. Another option is to assume all existing encroachments are in violation and place the burden of proof on the property owner. CTOKAYll/TXTW.O21k1 July 12.. 1989 City Council East Tokay Stree.t July 19, 1989 Page 9 Impact on Tokay Street If the above guidelines are applied to Tokay Street as it exists now, the driveways measured break down as follows: # Showing # Showing Total 7 o f Street Driveway # Showing 7 Showing Street Cross Driveways Scrapin Scrapin Both No Sl ope Masured Case 1� (Case 2 Probl errs Problem 13%& above 9 6 7 5 1 10T to 13% 33 15 16 8 10 Less than 10% 14 3 3 1 9 In reality, however, knowing the guidelines ahead of time, the project would have been designed differently to further reduce the cross slope and this information and a cost estimate wouiu have been presented to the Council for a decision prior to completion of the design. In future cases, most of the problems will be resolved in the design stage. Petition It is also recommended that the petition from the Tokay Street residents be denied. The cost to do what the petitioners request is prohibitive. In 1987, the City spent approximately $15,000 to replace 400 feet of curb and gutter and 1,100 square feet of sidewalk on Tokay Street. There is over 4,000 feet of curb and gutter in this segment and roughly 25,000 square feet of sidewalk and driveway. The concrete work alone would be over $200,000. The most equitable solution from the taxpayers' and the property owners' standpoint would be to form an assessment district with the City participating ' tb,- total cost. CuJa .

This petition is regarding the deep curve in the gutters along East Tokav Street. Over the years the streets have been paved over and over thus causing a deep curve between the street and the sidewalk. This becomes a problem every time one tries to enter and exit the driveway, their car bumper front and back bottom—out thus denting. the car and in some cases cracking the sidewalk. In order to elevate this problem many citizens have added a board or a concrete fill to the gutter and their driveway to be able to e;:it without damaginq the sidewalk and .their front and rear bumper. Another concern is that the traffic has increased to the paint where taking a long time to exit the. driveway is a safety hazard. We the undersigned ask the City to lessen the deep curve from the street to the driveway, at the City's expense. This would eliminate citizens from constructing their own makeshift fill;(which is currently a violation of chapter 12.04 of the Lodi t1unicipal Code) and increase the safety of our City.

Another- concern is that the traffic has increased to the point where taking a long time to exit the driveway is a safety hazard. We the undersigned ask the City to lessen the deep curve from the street to the driveway, at the City's expense. This would eliminate citizens from constructing their own makeshift fill: (which is currently a violation of chapter 12.04 of the Lodi Municipal Code) and increase the safet of our City.

CITY OF STOCKTON 129 LaLL DEPARTM-E-N.T OF PUBLIC WORKS Drowinq No. T0: City Council FROM : City Manager NEEENG DATE: May 6, 1987 AGENDA TITLE: Tokay Street Overlay, Stockton to Cherokee - Review of Project Alternatives RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council discuss the alternatives and establish the paving alternative for this project and a guideline for future overlay projects. BACKGROUND ll4;0RMATI0 - At a recent shirtsleeve meeting, staff presented a problem on the Tokay Street overlay project. The problem involved the large amount and high cost of curb and gutter replacement. Council requested that the matter be given additional study and brought back at a regular meeting. To put the problem in perspective, the following is a brief description of the normal maintenance program on a typical street: Age of Street Description of Work cost Remarks 1 year Seal Coat $0.01/SF 5 to 10 years Crack Seal Varies 10± years Slurry Seal $0.05/SF 20t years Thin Overlay (Minor St.) $0.20/SF Little or no curb gutter work done 20± years Thick Overlay (Major St.) $0.40 to Curb & gutter? 51.00/SF 30t years Reconstruct $3.00+/SF Usually widening so all curb & gutter is new, or major repairs to new standard The "curb and gutter" under the tH ck overlay remarks is shown with a "?" because there has been no formal procedure established for the following reasons: "The City has done very few thick overlays over the last 10 years; usually the major streets needed widening or reconstruction. "The thick overlays that have been done were on streets that needed relatively little curb and gutter replacement. APPROVED: I Fi LE X10, THOMAS A. PETERSON, Citv M'anaoer CTOKAY2/TXTW,026; April 23, 1987 'Ci ty ,Council May 6,-1987 Page 2 Reduced funding levels have made the use of thick overlays imperative. We are now using these on older streets that 10 years ago vie would have considered candidates for reconstruction. (Example - Pine Street between Cherokee and Highway 99.) As NAe use thick overlays on older streets, vie are and will i.ontinue to find extensive amounts of poor curb and gutter. Broken and depressed curb and gutter allows water to pond and weakens the edge of the street subgrade (aside from being a nuisance). In the past, vie have been attempting to repair gutters when the ponded water extends out of the gutter into the street. This is referred to as the "Std. Design" in the remaining discussion. On a street with few driveviays and reasonable grade, replacing curb and gutter is fairly straightforward. On a flat, oid street with lots of driveways (like Tokay S ., eet) , curb and gutter repair becomes major project, There are Tour construction alternatives which are described below and on the attached drawing uction Alternatives AlternatiNe Description Advantages Disadiantaaes 1. std Design Replace curb & gutter Droves drainage High cost, still only a where ponding exceeds and street shoulder partial fix caTpared to gutter width life conpleie replacement, affects driveway access 2.

' 6, 1987 Page 3 The costs of the alternatives applied to the ?okay Street project are show on the attached bar chart. They would be representative of similar projects on other older, residential streets. Another alternative involves financing. Presently, these projects are funded out of the various street funds, which mainly come from taxes on fue?. The City could require the property owners to pay for the sidewalk and driveway work. Driveways A related problem is that of driveway access. Older streets generally have a higher crown than the newer design streets and, in some cases, have higher curbs. Mary modern vehicles scrape the pavement when using a driveway. An overlay only makes this problem worse. Staff feels that this problem is not one that the City should spend additional money to -correct. Overlaps are a normal, accepted street maintenance technique. Insuring that vehicles will not scrape is nearly impossible and even attempting to do so would take an enormous amount of engineering time and ccnstruction expense in driveway replacement. In some instances, property owners have installed illegal ramps with or without culverts in the gutter. These are a maintenance problem and often are a safety hazard. The policy has been to have any new ramps removed and for ones that have been in place, they will be removed when the curb and gutter is replaced. Summary Staff feels that street maintenance is very important and should not be neglected. Street maintenance has a much higher priority than curb and gutter maintenance. Thus, the additional money that could be spent on curb and gutter replacement is better spent on pavement maintenance and reconstruction. The City of Lodi does budget a minor amount of funds for curb and gutter replacement. Initially, vve were recommending that we pave over the gutter portion of the curb; however, after further evaluation, it is felt that Alternative 4b, paving the ful' street width with no curb and gutter replacement, is in everyone's best interest. This alternative provides the property owner with a new street, allows the City to do curb and gutter repair in the future under our existing curb and gutter replacement program, and provide4 additional funds over the standard design for needed street maintenance in other areas. Staff will present the details meeting. 1 Jac. !

In order to raise the rear bumper, it becomes necessary to lower her driveway behind the walk whe.•e the front wheels rest, lower the sidewalk, and provide a transition, in the walk an both sides of the new driveway. It would also be necessary to regrade the lawn or construct a curb along the lowered areas. A letter was sent to Mrs. Miller on Nay 3, 1988 outlining a compromise that the staff felt they couid make on this replacement. The estimated total cost of replacing the 7' driveway, sidewalk, and a portion of the. on-site drive is $500. The City offered to pay 5200, leaving $300 remaining as the property owner's responsibility. Staff did not feel that w cculd obligate the City to any larger percentage, and that the owner should be responsible for sone of the costs. Should 'the owner Exhibit G REQUEST FOR NEW 12' , the DRIVEWAY AT 513 be approximately EAST TOKAY STREET The City of Lodi recently received a letter from Mgrs. Leona 5600, the additional Miller requesting that the City of Loai construct a new CC -16 driveway approach at 513 East Tokay Street. CC -45(b) gutter, and a:iacent The City Council was advised that in the fall of 1987, the not necessary if City of Lodi !et a contract for the placing of an asphalt were not concrete overlay on Tokay Street between Cherokee Lane and Miller's ccst Stcckton Street. At the time of this construction, One of driveway the des;gp concerns was whether to pave to the existing be 5400. gutter (which had not been a standard practice) or prov4de an overlay that would match the toe of the curb and gutter. It was determined at that tine to place the asphalt concrete overlay in conformance with our established standards. The placement of the asphalt overlay increased the crown of the existing street which was a problem at this location before the City's project. The City's project did worsen the condition. Depending on the type of car that uses this driveway and the speed of the car entering and exiting, a car may "bottom out". Eased on the scrapes on the pavement, it is evident that Leona Miller's car does have a probiem with this driveway. When the rear wheels of her automobile are in the gutter, the front wheels are on her drive behind the sidewalk. Therefore, removing and replacing just the existing driveway does not solve the problem of her rear bumper dragging. In order to raise the rear bumper, it becomes necessary to lower her driveway behind the walk whe.•e the front wheels rest, lower the sidewalk, and provide a transition, in the walk an both sides of the new driveway. It would also be necessary to regrade the lawn or construct a curb along the lowered areas. A letter was sent to Mrs. Miller on Nay 3, 1988 outlining a compromise that the staff felt they couid make on this replacement. The estimated total cost of replacing the 7' driveway, sidewalk, and a portion of the. on-site drive is $500. The City offered to pay 5200, leaving $300 remaining as the property owner's responsibility. Staff did not feel that w cculd obligate the City to any larger percentage, and that the owner should be responsible for sone of the costs. Should 'the owner elect to widen the drive+•;ay to 12' , the total cost would be approximately $1,000. The City's portion would be 5600, the additional cost being primer i ly for removing and replacir- curb, gutter, and a:iacent paving which was not necessary if the driveway were not w dened . Leona Miller's ccst for a 12' driveway replacement would be 5400. While 513 East Tokay appears to have the worst problem in this block because of the street configuration, there are many other driveways that show similar problems with the new pavement and several that show conflict between automobiles and concrete at the join between driveway and sidewalk. Whatever is determined to be reasonable in this case should be looked upon as possibly precedent -setting as there are numerous other streets within present City limits that may cause a similar problem at the time an overlay is installed. Possible d-istribution of costs could be based on percentages (40-60); so many dollars per foot of width, either by City or owner, with the other party picking up all remaining costs; or the City could be responsible for certain items such as removal—and/or compaction, curb and gutter, or ??? , with the owner picking up the remainder. Figures above indicate the magnitude of costs for a single width drivecay. Double width driveways would obviously cost more, but would nct be directly proportional. Since the speed with which one enters or leaves the driveway and the make of vehicles affect the cross-sectional profile that causes a problem, there should also be a limit at which the City feels responsible. This would most likely be based on either a "standard vehicle" or the owner's vehicle (unmodified) and a numerical clearance - such as 2 or 3 inches when empty other than the driver. Differences in clearance because of type of shocks, hard/soft, old/new, would not appear to be an item that sheuld be taken into consideration. Keeping in mind that Staff feels strongly that the City should not bear the entire cost, it is this department's City Council recommendation that some adjustment be made for 513 East iokay Street, and once the installation is made, the effects be measured and a draft policy be developed and returned to the City Council for approval. on her property and Mrs. Miller was i n the audience and addressed the Council regarding the matter. Discussion followed with questions being directed to staff and to Mrs. Miller. On motion of Council Member Hinchman, Snider second, the City Council directed staff to met and negotiate with Mrs. Miller as to which cf the two cpticns she would prefer for construction of a new driveway approitch on her property and then to proceed with the subject construction, once an agreement has been reached.
