Item 7 _
Meeting Date 10/18/83
ITEM TITLE: Resolution //'/O Z Accepting petition for the construction of
missing sidewalk in Millan Court east of First Avenue
SUBMITTED BY: City Engineer (4/5ths Vote: Yes No x )
REVIEWED BY: City Manager
The City Engineer has received a petition from property owners in Millan Court
east of First Avenue requesting that 1911 Block Act proceedings be commenced
for construction of missing sidewalk in this block. The petition subsequently
was filed with the City Clerk on October 3, 1983.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council direct staff to contact the property owner of
missing sidewalk for voluntary installation of sidewalk. If property owner
doesn' t volunteer, staff to consider as part of the 1984-85 Block Act Program.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
Mr. Otto, a resident of 83 Millan Court, recently contacted the Engineering
Department in regard to the construction of missing sidewalk fronting the lot
on the northeast corner of Millan Court and First Avenue. He and his
neighbors who live in the cul-de-sac already have sidewalk and would like to
see these improvements installed. We prepared a petition which he
subsequently circulated among the residents of Millan Court east of First
Avenue. The petition was signed by nearly all the residents within the
cul-de-sac. The petition requested that proceedings be commenced for the
construction of missing sidewalk in Millan Court east of First Avenue in
accordance with Chapter 27 of the Street and Highway Code of the State of
California. A copy of this petition is attached.
We have not previously considered this a priority project because sidewalk
exists on the south side of the street in Millan Court. Also, the lot is
unimproved where the sidewalk is required.
In accordance with Chapter 27, the City may require the property owner at the
northeast corner of First and Millan to install the missing sidewalk.
However, at this time, we believe it appropriate to direct staff to include
this project for consideration in the CIP Block Act Project for 1984-85.
FISCAL IMPACT: None.
