AGENDA TITLE: Approve Plans and Specifications and Authorize Advertisement for Bids for
Century Boulevard Roadway Improvements, Sage Way to Lower Sacramento Road
MEETING DATE: May 18, 2005
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council approve the plans and specifications for the
above project and authorize advertising for bids.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This project will construct Century Boulevard as an interim 32 -foot
wide, two-lane roadway from Sage Way to Lower Sacramento Road.
This will complete the south half of the ultimate roadway width fronting
the future DeBenedetti Park up to Lower Sacramento Road. This
road is shown on the street master pian as a 64 -foot wide, curb -to -curb, four -lane, undivided arterial.
Completion of the interim improvements, in conjunction with the improvements on Lower Sacramento Road,
should reduce the local traffic on Kettleman Lane, traffic problems and speeding on Mills Avenue between
Kettleman Lane and Century Boulevard, as well as reducing traffic on Harney Lane. This project also
includes the extension of a 48 -inch storm drain pipe along Century Boulevard that will serve the future
westside development.
The north half of Century Boulevard roadway in this area would routinely be completed with the development
of the vacant parcel to the north. No plans for this parcel are currently under development review.
After completion of the roadway project, a speed survey will be conducted and a recommendation for the
posted speed limit will be brought back to Council for approval.
The plans and specifications are on file in the Public Works Department.
FISCAL IMPACT: There will be a slight increase in maintenance costs for sweeping and future
pavement maintenance.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: The money for this project will be coming from the Local Street, Storm Drain
and Park Impact Mitigation Fee Funds. A request for appropriation of funds
will be made at contract award.
Project Estimate: $534,500
Budgeted: 05106 fiscal year
