SUf3JECT:� SECOND YEAR HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT - SIDEWALKS STATEmR OF THE MATTER REQUEST: On December 16, 1975, the Council voted to participate in the County's second -year Community Development Block Grant Application. Second year funds were channeled into three phases which included: (I) reno- vation of the Harding Street Community Center, (II) lights and land- scaping for Chase Field, and (III) inner-city sidewalk improvements. The scope of work is now complete for the third phase sidewalk project. Twenty percent of the second year grant ($13,760) has been allocated for sidewalk improvements. Staff would like Council to review the lo- cations before the scope of work is forwardt.d to the County.

The proposed locations for the sidewalks are attached along with a map showing the approximate placement of the sidewalks. The Engineering Department will submit an agenda bill for authorization of bids with the exact specifications as soon as the bid estimate has been completed. A number of factors were used in determining the possible locations for the sidewalks. Pedestrian volume, obstructions, continuity of routes, and link to activity centers were all criteria used in determining the final locations. In several instances the best areas for sidewalks could not be used due to a lack of city -owner'. right- of-way. Another major determinant, established by the Engineering Department, was the necessity for existing curb and gutter. Where sidewalks are to be concrete it is necessary that curb and gutter are existing because of the expense involved in the installation of tnese two items. There is not enough existing curb and gutter along major pedestrian routes to use all the allocated funds in concrete. Rather than place concrete in low volume areas, staff felt that the remainder of the funds should be u3ed to construct temporary asphalt sidewalks in high volume areas. These temporary sidewalks will be replaced with concrete by the property owners when the areas abutting the sidewalk are developed.
