Signal and Lighting Installation and Concrete Curb, Gutter and Sidewalk Installation MEETING DATE: December 16, 1992 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: At its April 1, 1992 meeting, City Council adopted Resolution 92-55 authorizing funding, approving an amendment to the Transportation Improvement Plan and directing City staff to proceed with the traffic signal and lighting installation at the intersection of Cherokee Lane and Hale Road. Plans and specifications have been prepared by City staff and have been reviewed and approved by Caltrans. Since this project is funded with Federal Transportation funds, this additional review was necessary. In order to provide controlled access to this intersection and coordinate vehicle flow, construction of curb, gutter and alley approaches are necessary (see Exhibit n. Also, to improve pedestrian access (which is the primary purpose of installing the signal), sidewalk and handicap ramps are being installed. At the Star Market, this will mean the displacement of six nonstandard diagonal parking stalls which were marked within the public right of way. Staff has met with the owner of the property and his attorney. The project was described to them, and that it is being done by the City at no cost to the owner even though, under the Streets and Highways Code, the City could require the owner to pay for the sidewalk. Apparently, the owner has a parcel immediately west of the market and is considering expanding the parking lot. Staff offered to assist in doing a layout but declined a request to pay for the expansion. Staff also reviewed this project with the Cherokee Lane Improvement Committee/ Chamber of Commerce at their December 3 meeti-g. The consensus of the group was that the City should proceed with the project as proposed by staff. APPROVED. THOMAS A.
