PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS AND ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS APPROVED FOR TRAFFIC SIGNAL AND LIGHTING INSTALLATIONS AT KETTLEMAN LANE/MILLS AVENUE, HUTCHINS STREET/VINE STREET, CHURCH STREET/WALNUT STREET, CHURCH STREET/OAK STREET, CHURCH STREET/PINE STREET AND CHURCH STREET/ELM STREET CC -12.1(c) On motion of Council Member Snider, Pennino second, the City Council approved the plans and specifications and advertisement for bids for traffic signal and lighting installations at Kettleman Lane/Mills Avenue, Hutchins Street/Vine Street, Church Street/Walnut Street, Church Street/Oak Street, Church Street/Pine Street and Church Street/Elm Street. The City Council was advised that this project includes the installation of traffic signals at the intersections of Kettleman Lane/Mills Avenue and Hutchins Street/Vine Street. The intersection of Church Street and Pine Street will be modified so that it is fully actuated and the �.. intersections of Church Street/Walnut Street, Oak Street and Elm Street will be modified with side street actuation. This project was the one discussed earlier in 1991 with regard to possibly "selling" our FAU funds and avoiding the new State deadlines for use of FAU funds. Council elected to- do the signal projects and the City retained a Consultant to prepare plans and specifications. The Caltrans review process was long, difficult and frustrating. We have met the necessary State deadlines but need to proceed on the project before the Federal fiscal year ends at the end of September. The project will utilize the City's remaining Federal Aid Urban balance of approximately $206,000. With this plus an additional $52,000 already budgeted, we are still $47,000 short to do the project. A recommendation for an additional appropriation will be made at the time of award. ADJOURNMENT There being no further discussion to come before the City Council, the meeting was adjourned at 8:00 p.m. Attest: c.tGCC.�� — • 1 Alice M. Re mche City Clerk 11 J -.r+ --.
