RED HOUSING AND “EDEVELOPMENT COMMIS,C”SN - AGENDA BILL 0 ’ DEPT. HD.e CITY Ad!23 CITY MGR..~ RECOMMENDED ACTION: If Housing and Redevelopment Commission concurs, your action is to adopt Resolution No. M, allocating funds for signage of Carlsbad Village Drive. ITEM: This item is a request for funding to change the street name signs on Interstate 5 to designate Carlsbad Village Drive. On February 17, 1987, City Council adopted Resolution No. 8967 approving SNC 25 - Elm Avenue to Carlsbad Village Drive with the condition that the change be concurrent with Elm Avenue Streetscape and with Pacific Bell Directory. At the time of the street name change, the full costs of the highway signage had not been determined. This change will require nine (9) sign changes on Interstate 5. Cal-Trans estimates that the total cost for engineering and construction will be $143,000. Sufficient funds are available in the Redevelopment fund. The City could elect to leave the name change in effect and no& change the freeway signs. Another option would be to change the street name back to Elm Avenue. The name change to Carlsbad Village Drive would augment the City's commitment to the Village Area Redevelopment project by focusing attention upon and directing traffic to the Carlsbad Village Area. The streetscape project is scheduled to move onto Elm Avenue in 1990. This action would provide ample time to change the signs and coordinate telephone directory changes with the public improvements. PISCAL: The estimated costs of $143,000 can be made available in the Redevelopment Agency fund. This would leave an estimated available balance at the end of FY 89-90 of $638,000 after considering restrictions on Redevelopment funds. 1 - Housing and Redevelopment Commission Resolution No.l& allocating funds for sign construction. 2 - Letter from California Department of Transportation dated January IO, 1989. 3- Memo to Community Development Director dated July 26, 1989. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 a 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 RESOLUTION NO. 143 A RESOLUTION OF THE HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING THE ALLOCATION OF FUNDS FROM THE REDEVELOPMENT TAX INCREMENT ACCOUNT FOR THE PURPOSE OF CHANGING SIGNAGE OF ELM AVENUE TO VILLAGERIVK WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Carlsbad, did on the 17th day of February, 1987, hold a duly noticed public hearing to consider the proposed street name change; and WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the City Council approved the street name change of Elm Avenue to Carlsbad Village Drive from the eastern terminus to the ocean with the condition that the change be concurrent with the Elm Avenue streetscape and coordinated with the Pacific Bell Telephone Directory.
