Main Street Streetscaping Project Update (B)
This item is a request to update the City Commission on the progress of the Main Street Streetscaping project and request input on some design elements
Explanation
On April 21, 2011 the City Commission approved the reallocation of $1,616,984.73 in gas tax funds to the Main Street Streetscaping and Lighting project. These funds were savings from previous projects already constructed.
The first phase of the project is going to address the inadequate lighting in the corridor and the second phase is going to address streetscaping and hardscaping elements in the corridor.
This presentation will focus primarily on the first phase of the project and will discuss the design, costs and benefits of the design. In this presentation, staff is also asking for direction on the streetscaping and hardscaping elements the City Commission would like to see.
Fiscal Note
Funding in the amount of $1,616,984.73 is available from gas tax funds and $98,271.00 from the EECBG Grant.
Recommendation
The City Commission hear presentation from staff and provide input as desired.
