HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - May 4, 1983 (32)Council received the following letter which had been
received from Roger Ni&olson, Commander of the Lodi Post
Inc. of the Mericar. Legion: --OF
ine uxu Post 22, of the American Legion ! wh is oca7ET
at 320 North Washington Street, is proposing several major
improvements to our building. Some of these include a
handicap ramp to the front entrance to the building and
restrooms for the handicapped on the main floor. The
estimated cost for these two items alone will be between
$12,000 and $30,000, and the end result will benefit the
numerous handicapped Ixxlians that utilize this facility.
Tt'S our understanding that your Engineering Staff would
authorize a modification of the public sidewalk and curbing
to acocrmodate the handicap where our proposed ramp will
terminate at the public walkway. This modification will be
larger that the normal handicap ramp to allow the City's
Parks Department access to the neighboring park with their
lawn mowers.
We have also learned this portion of Washington Street is
scheduled to be repaved this year. In conjunction with this
r --paving project we request the City Council to authorize
expenditures to eliminate a curb and gutter drah-age problem
that has existed in front of the building for many years and
has caused a saftey and health hazard. We have contacted
the Engineering Division and it's been indicated the
solution to this problem is the placement of a storm line
and catch basins on Washington Street and the replacement of
approximately 200 feet of eldsting curb and gutter.
Your help in resolving this ongoing problem would be greatly
appreciated.
Sincerely,
Roger Nicholson,
