BACKGROUND: At a recent Agency meeting/workshop, it was suggested that two projects be accelerated to the current fiscal year Capital Improvement Program. These projects were the First St. and Prospect Ave. Traffic Signal Modifications previously scheduled for lg84-85 and the Prospect Ave. Relief Drain previously scheduled for 1985-86. DISCUSSION: The Prospect Ave. Relief Drain will require the excavation of the intersection of irvine Blvd. and Prospect Ave. as well as the street area along Prospect Ave. between Irvine Blvd. and First St. The intersection of Irvine Blvd. and Prospect Ave. will be repaved with the Irvine Blvd. project currently in progress. Prospect Ave. between Irvine Blvd. and First St. was recently repaved in late 1979. This drain would be a supplement to the existing drain within Prospect Ave. and would pose no problems with respect to flooding private properties in the event the relief drain was delayed. Consequently, it is suggested that the Prospect Ave. relief drain not be accelerated to the current fiscal year as previously mentioned. This may eliminate any potential criticism to the City regarding the excavation of recently paved streets. DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS/ CITY ENGINEER db
