. <br /> . . , � <br /> COUNCIL COMMUNICATION FORM <br /> Engineering & Infrastructure Memorandum <br /> NO. 2002 - 80 <br /> December 23, 2002 <br /> TO: Honorable Mayor Howley and City Council <br /> FROM: Steve Garman., City Manager �� <br /> Stephen Swanson, P. E., Director of Engineering & Infrastruct�re <br /> Matthew C. Newell, P. E., City Engineer�,� <br /> SUBJECT: Designating Hubbard Avenue as a Class II Truck Route <br /> SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: <br /> Staff recommends that the City Council approve the attached Ordinance designating Hubbard <br /> Avenue, from 27th Street to Brush College Road, as a Class II truck route. <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> In accordance with State law, unless otherwise prohibited, City streets allow access far trucks up <br /> to 73,280 lbs. in weight distributed over 5 axles. Designation as a Class II truck route increases <br /> the allowable weight to 80,000 lbs. along with some size increases to the truck. <br /> The Hubbard Avenue extension was designed to accommodate Class II trucks. Archer Daniels <br /> Midland Company (ADM) proposes to use Hubbard Avenue as part of its corn processing <br /> program by staging trucks for testing at its warehouse on 27th / Hubbard Avenue and directing <br /> them to an unloading site on Brush College Road. A significant portion of the grain trucks <br /> delivering to ADM meet the Class II weight and size designations. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTIONS: There are no known objections to this <br /> resolution and agreement. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: Archer Daniels Midland Company <br />
