r� � �I <br /> � _ < II <br /> The proposed sidewalk contract for this fiscal year incorporates two sidewalk initiatives <br /> identified for the General Fund: Sidewalks Improvements ($80,000) and Sidewalk Ramp <br /> Program ($40,000). In the interest of obtaining the best possible bids, staff has combined <br /> these proj ects under one contract. <br /> As in past years, the sidewalk contract contains the flexibility to add sidewalk '� <br /> reconstruction quantities to the contract as deteriorated segments are identified as causing a I <br /> safety hazard or a general nuisance to the public. These segments are generally identified i <br /> by citizen complaints or staff investigation. The sidewalk contract allows the City to retain I <br /> the services of the low bid contractor to perform additional sidewalk work as the need <br /> arises over the course of the fiscal year. <br /> Staff desires the ability to be more responsive to the citizens of the City by making a strong <br /> effort to improve the timeliness of necessary sidewalk replacement / repair. Added <br /> sidewalk replacement volume will improve the condition of the City's sidewalks. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTION: There are no known objections to this <br /> resolution and bid award. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: None <br /> E• Matt Newell Cit En ineer 424-2747 <br /> STAFF REFERENC . , y g , <br /> Travis Stanley, Civil Engineer I, 424-2747 <br /> The City Engineer, Matt Newell, will be in attendance at the City Council meeting to <br /> answer any questions of the Council on this item. <br /> BUDGET/TIME IMPLICATIONS: <br /> Funding for this project is currently budgeted in the City's Capital Improvements Fund. <br /> The recommended low bid amount is $83,605.20.
