Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move that Council approve the 11 Avenue streetscape improvements concept plans as presented. Overview. One of the strongest subjects to emerge from the City's earlier strategic planning efforts was the need to improve Excelsior Boulevard for vehicular and pedestrian movement and enhance the links between Excelsior Blvd and Mainstreet. The first phase of Excelsior Blvd improvements are underway and should be completed with final landscaping by October, 1999. Staff would now like to move forward with streetscape improvements to 11 Avenue South from Excelsior Blvd to Mainstreet. Steven J. Stadler, Public Works Director Council Report 98 -078 Page 2 Analysis of Issues. Concept Design Elements Decorative lighting to match Mainstreet Special sidewalk paving at comers to 11 Avenue and 1 Street South to match the corners on Mainstreet A two and a half foot square sidewalk pattern to match the pattern on Excelsior Boulevard - A band of exposed aggregate concrete at the curb to help visually separate pedestrian and vehicular traffic Landscaping at the parking ramp including a concept for improvements of the parking area behind Archies • Project Costs and Funding Hoisingtion Koegler Group, Inc.'s preliminary cost estimate is $174,500 including a 20% contingency. Funding for these improvements will come from two sources. Special sidewalk exposed aggregate concrete and paver brick at the intersection of 11 Ave and 1 Street South, new wiring and street light bases from Excelsior Boulevard to 1 Street South will funded as a change order to the current Excelsior Boulevard Reconstruction contract. The current contract for Excelsior Boulevard includes sidewalk demolition and new sidewalk on this block. The balance of the work including new street lighting, new sidewalk and landscaping from 1 Street South to Mainstreet is proposed to be funded from PIR fund. The total estimated project cost to be funded from PIR is $120,000. • Maintenance Issues The only new maintenance issues with this streetscape design are the paver bricks at the intersection and some additional plantings - a manageable increase in maintenance. • Project Schedule As mentioned above, the sidewalk work between Excelsior Boulevard and 1 Street South will be completed this year as a part of the Excelsior Blvd reconstruction project. The balance of the new work will be designed in 1999 and constructed in 2000. m Z C —1 = m O 0 w 2 j � m =m _ m = A ( ' tea 0 a m A 0 2 0 m -o -a 0 0) 0 fi z 0 N (V 0 0I r ■W II II.
