The Public Works Department seeks to extend the landscaping to Kettleman Lane. 3) Lower Sacramento Road Median Landscaping ($250,000) (from Turner Road to Harney Lane) Although the original estimated cost is $620,000 for landscaping, the EEMP's maximum award is $250,000. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The EEM Program is designed to mitigate vehicular emissions of carbon dioxide through the planting of trees and other suitable plants on highways or public streets. Only new transportation projects, such as the Kettleman Lane/Crescent Avenue project and the Lower Sacramento Road widening project receive strong consideration. Hutchins Street from Kettleman Lane to Harney Lane is eligible because it is impacted by the median work on Kettleman Lane. FUNDING: Not applicable. �ti rL Richard C.
