COUNCIL ITEMS
ITEM "A" / LAMPSON AVENUE MEDIAN IMPROVEMENT / PROJECT NO.
ST1108 (Miller)
The Assistant City Manager/Director of Public Works gave a brief background
report regarding the project-the direction of the City Council on September 26,
2011 was to reject the bids and release the $500,000 grant back to Caltrans —
Mayor Pro Tem Miller requested this action due to fatigue of the community in
regards to the numerous construction projects - the City budgeted $357,000 in
General Fund matching contribution - direction from the Council was to re-scope
the project and return with a reduced project for consideration utilizing a portion
of the$357,000. Three options for Council consideration: 1) approval of funding
and beginning of design. If the project is redesigned following Council approval
the project can be bid with construction beginning as early as this summer; 2)
fund the project in the Capital Improvement Program for FY 2012-13; or 3)
analysis of the project within the upcoming budget cycle. Mayor Pro Tern Miller
provided photos of the area in question and recommended option 1. Council
Members Shanks and Deaton suggested the Council discuss the project during
the budget study session.
Miller moved, second by Levitt, to approve the funding and begin design of the
Lampson Avenue Median Improvement Project No. ST1108. (The project
construction will be coordinated with the West County Connectors project.)
