SUBMITTED BY: Director of Building and Parks Construction~ REVIEWED BY: City Manager (4/5ths Vote: YES _ NO-XJ RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the Resolution approving a revised right-of way improvement plan for the right-of-way improvements on Fourth Avenue and F Street in conjunction with the new Police Facility within the parameters of the previously approved Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for those improvements as per the existing Design Build Agreement with Highland Partnership, Inc. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: N/A DISCUSSION: Council previously approved the right-of-way improvement plans and budget for Fourth Avenue and F Street in conjunction with the construction of the new Police Facility. The budget for the improvements of $3.1 million for the base project is within budget parameters previously established by Council. As part of the bid for the project, two additive alternates will be priced. Subsequent to Council's prior approval, the Design Build team held several meetings involving members of the public with respect to the work contemplated by those plans, and, more specifically, the plan to remove upward of twenty-eight (28) existing trees rrom Friendship Park. As a result of these meetings and the concerns raised by members of the public, the right-of-way improvement plans have been revised to minimize the impacts on existing trees in Friendship Park. The revised plans are within the previously approved GMP. In accordance with Council's prior authorization, the additive alternates will be included in the bid and, pending the results of those bids, may be included in the project if found to be competitive and within the previously approved budget parameters. While there will still be some trees removed rrom Friendship Park, it is expected that the number will be not greater than five and these impacted trees would be removed as part of the construction of a new sidewalk and utility facilities along the eastern side of Fourth Avenue. It is the intention of the Design Build team to undertake every possible effort to minimize the removal of trees for the purpose of the construction of this sidewalk and utility facilities. The revised plan calls for the planting of 158 trees within the right-of-way of Fourth Avenue and F Street. It also includes the construction of landscaped medians on both streets in the project area and the construction of enhanced intersections at Fourth Avenue and E Street and Fourth Avenue and F Street. This enhanced intersection treatment will include enhanced colored concrete paving. The types of trees that will be planted as part of these improvements are Date Palms (102), Crape Myrtles (46), Jacarandas (5) and Naked Corals (5). The plan also includes enhanced lighting, irrigation, additional sidewalk and gateway monuments at the intersection of Fourth A venue and F Street in tront of the Library. Other proposed changes to the plan are the removal of the colored asphalt treatment on Fourth Avenue from E Street to F Street. Only the pavement within the intersections will be enhanced. Also, the mid-block pedestrian crossing trom Memorial Way to Friendship Park has been removed. FISCAL IMPACT: The original GMP for the project was $3.5 million. With the revisions to the plan, the new base cost of the improvements is $3.1 million. Two additive alternates will also be bid and may be included in the project provided the prices are competitive and fall within Council's previously approved budget for the project. From a maintenance perspective, the fiscal impact is lessened as there are fewer trees being planted than originally contemplated and the change trom colored asphalt to normal asphalt on Fourth Avenue will reduce the costs of street maintenance in the future.
