FINAL REPORTING DATE DEPT. ENG
I RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. dooo- L( 1 approving the rescheduling of the Street and Sidewalk Policy Committee final reporting date to March g 2000. 7
ITEM EXPLANATION:
On November 2, 1999, City Council appointed a fifteen member citizen committee to review the
City’s eleven year old street and sidewalk policy and make recommendations to Council for revisions
in that policy. The Committee was directed to make its report to the City Council by February 1,
2000, unless at the request of the Committee, the Council extends the date.
The Committee held its first meeting on November 10, 1999, and has been meeting at least once a
week ever since. The Committee is close to submitting its final report to Council, but feels more time is needed to thoroughly complete the report. Tonight, Chairperson Bob Leger will be
addressing to Council the progress made by the Committee and request the final reporting date be
rescheduled to Marchfi, 2000.
7
FISCAL IMPACT:
If Council approves rescheduling the reporting date to March 6, 2000, additional costs may occur for
consultant services, staff time, supplies, equipment and materials. However, on December 7, 1999,
Council approved allocating $55,000 to the Engineering Department Operating Budget for incurred
costs from the Street and Sidewalk Policy Committee.
Staff believes the current appropriations will be adequate enough to cover the Committee’s
expenses until the final report is submitted to Council on March 6 2000.
