FISCAL IMPACT The final cost of construction for this project is $273,699.00, which includes one contract change order. Funding for this project will be provided through the 1998-99 FY Public Works Department/Engineering Division Operating Budget (account #010-400-4020-6235)and the 1998-99 FY Public Works Department/Field Services Division Operating Budget (account #010-400-4030-6245).This project is part of the City's on-going Maintenance of Effort requirements for compliance with Measure "M". BACKGROUND This project consisted of the removal and replacement of concrete sidewalk, curb and gutter and drive aprons to co~ect tripping hazards at approximately 300 locations throughout the City. Problem areas where roots from parkway trees repeatedly damage and lift the adjacent sidewalk, creating these tripping hazards, have been addressed in this year's project. Sixty-four parkway trees were removed and fifty-four of the trees were replaced with tree species that have a less invasive root system. Acceptance of Public Improvements and Authorization to File Notice of Completion for Annual Sidewalk and Curb and Gutter Repair Project, FY 1998-99 July 19, 1999 Page 2 This project also provided a means to address improvements throughout the City to comply with the Federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). These locations were requested by citizens or were identified by City staff to provide curb access ramps as well as completion of missing segments of sidewalk to improve disabled/pedestrian access. ADA related improvements during this year's project included twelve curb ramps at various locations, as well as construction of three segments of concrete sidewalk along the westerly side of Red Hill Avenue between Warner Avenue and Industrial Drive. This area previously had limited stretches of sidewalk, and construction of these missing segments has eliminated the need for pedestrians to traverse these zones on the side of the road adjacent to vehicular travel lanes. This work has been completed by Kovac, Inc. to the satisfaction of the Engineering Division. Tim'l~.
