TRUCKEE DONNER
Public Utility District
Workshop
To: Board of Directors
From: Peter Holzmeister
Date: September 28, 2006
Subject: Riverview Drive improvement project
Why this matter is before the Board: This is a workshop item. It involves a request from
Riverview Townhomes Owners' Association that the District participate in improving
Riverview Drive so that it is accepted by the Town of Truckee.
History: Riverview Drive is a private road that passes in front of our Martis Valley
substation. We have used Riverview Drive for many years to access the substation. Until
recently, it was a dirt and gravel road. When Riverview Townhomes and Riverview Homes
developed, the dirt road was significantly improved (drainage, curbs and paving). But the
road was apparently not accepted by the Town.
New information: Now part of the road is apparently failing. The homeowners'
Association would like to improve it to Town standards and have it accepted by the Town
for maintenance and snow removal. Attached is a letter from the Riverview Townhomes
Owners' Association asking us to participate in the project. I have spoken with Bob Fitter,
Property Manager at Riverview Townhomes. He will be at the meeting on Wednesday
evening along with Mark Steiner the developer and other interested parties. They will be
prepared to explain the proposal.
Recommendation: No formal action is needed at this time since this is a workshop item.

Attn: Peter Holzmeister
P.O. Box 309
Truckee, Ca. 96161
Dear Mr. Holzmeister:
The Riverview Townhomes Owners' Association is attempting to have
Riverview Drive dedicated to the Town of Truckee. This process would transfer the
maintenance and snow removal service from the street users to the Town. As a condition
of this transfer, the Town requires that the section from Estates Drive to the boundary of
Riverview be repaired to meet Town road standards. We have received a bid from
Advanced Asphalt to mill the existing surface and install 3" asphalt course from edge to
edge at the price of$ 33,532.32. This bid will expire on September 17,2006.
The current road users include the Senior Apartments, Riverview Townhomes,
Truckee-Donner PUD, and Riverview Homes. We are now waiting for a report from the
Town stating that revenue neutrality has been reached.
We would like to have the participation of the Truckee Donner PUD in sharing
the final cost of the road repair. We believe that if all concerned users share the cost then
the amount each would pay would be minimal. Please inform us of your decision and the
amount you would contribute.
Sincerely,
AMCO
Bob Fittrer
Property Manager
