AGENDA TITLE: Approve Plans and Specifications and Authorize Advertisement for Bids for 2011
Disabled Access Improvements, 100 BlockWest Elm Street and
111 North Stockton Street
MEETING DATE: June 1,2011
PREPARED BY: PublicWorks Director
RECOMMENDEDACTION: Approve plans and specifications and authorize advertisement for bids
for 2011 disabled access improvements, 100 blockWest Elm Street
and 111 North Stockton Street.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This project is part of the City of Lodi's 2010/11 Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) allocation.
The work consists of the modification of existing parking stalls for the purpose of constructing Americans
with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant accessible parking stalls.
The existing disabled parking stalls in the 100 block of West Elm Street must be modified to include the
addition of a van -accessible stall and proper signage and to provide cross slopes in the parking area and
the pedestrian area that meet ADA requirements. In addition, ADA regulations do not allow the
encroachment of pedestrian ramps into the pavement area. The proposed ramps have been reconfigured
to remove the pedestrian ramps from the vehicle parking areas. The existing six disabled parking stalls
will be replaced with one van -accessible stall and two disabled parking stalls.
The parking stall modifications in the 100 block of Elm Street were discussed as part of the "Update of
2005 Americans with Disabilities Act Transition Plan" at the April 1, 2008 Shirtsleeve Session. Council
was given a report on the completed transition plan projects and a listing of future ADA projects. The
proposed Elm Street project in 2008 converted six disabled access stalls to four regular time-limited stalls
and one van -accessible stall. The current design will convert the six disabled -access stalls into two
regular time-limited stalls, two disabled parking stalls and one van -accessible stall. ExhibitsA and B
show the existing parking layout and the proposed parking layout, respectively.
This projectwill also modifythe existing parking lot at 111 North Stockton Streetwith the installation of a
van -accessible parking stall and a disabled parking stall. Currently, this location does not have any
parking stalls for the disabled. Exhibit C shows the proposed layout of the new ADA parking stalls.
Plans and specifications are on file in the Public Works department. The planned bid opening date is
July 6, 2011.
FISCAL IMPACT: There could be a slight increase in long-term maintenance costs due to the
additional signage and striping.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: 2010/11 CDBG Funds: $140,000
