BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This project consists of removing existing landscape elements in the narrow part of the median, installing stamped concrete, and other incidental and related work, all as shown on the plans and specifications for the project. The location of the project is shown on Exhibit A. The existing landscape elements in the median along Reynolds Ranch Parkway were installed in 2009, as part of the Reynolds Ranch improvements. The plants in the narrow part of the median, where the width is less than four feet, are not doing well and are difficult to maintain. Staff recommends removing the landscape elements in these narrow portions and replacing with stamped concrete. This would improve the esthetics of the median and also reduce the long-term maintenance costs in the area. The plans and specifications are on file in the Public Works Department. The planned bid opening date is March 27, 2013. The project estimate is $33,000. FISCAL IMPACT: This project will reduce the long-term maintenance costs of the Reynolds Ranch Parkway median. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding will be identified at project award. F.
