The Capital Improvement Program Budget for FY 1996-97 has allocated ~tieient funds for the Preliminary Engineering and Final Design of each of the four projects. ,BACKGROUND "A" Street, Mountain View Drive, "B" Street and "C" Street, are each located between First Street and Irvine Boulevard. These are curbed, tree-lined residential streets with on-street parking. Although storm water drainage problems currently exist on these rdatively fiat streets, most of the significant damage to the street improvements has come from the existing trees which line both sides of the streets. These trees have grown and developed greatly 'over the years. Their enlarged root system has damaged the adjacent curb and street pavement. In some locations, where the roots have surfaced, the sidewalk and driveway aprons have also been uplifted and cracked. Careful consideration is being given to protecting the trees, however, some may need to be removed. The proposed reconstruction projects will include design features which will correct the street drainage problems, while repairing the tree-damaged street and adjacent 'improvements. Implementation will provide new curb & gutter, storm drain, driveway aprons, sidewalks and acce~ ramps. Street lighting, new asphalt pavement and landscaping will be added. There are current fight-of-way limitations in that the homes on these streets have minimum frontage setbacks. Design consideration will be given to the adjacent sidewalk and driveway reconstruction so as to minimize any negative impact to the landscaped l~om yards or private appurtenances.
