Traffic Control Device Upgrade (4911)
Finance Director Schwab requested Council prioritize from a revised
list of projects. There is a balance of $35,000 carried over and an
estimated revenue of $143,000; recommended not spending over $150,000
to prevent depleting the fund. Councilman Evans questioned and was
advised funds for the Traffic Signal Device project at Michigan and
Barton Road relative to the Mini Market would also come from this
fund, further restricting the amount to be allocated.
Community Services Director advised the ten projects are listed as
prioritized in the Traffic Engineer Report. City Engineer Kicak felt
some of the estimated costs were low.

Pro Tem Matteson's Motion also included the Mini Market project.

La Cadena Drive and Barton Road, Line Item 709, Community Services
Director Anstine clarified that only two of the nine accidents

Sidewalk - Grand Terrace Rd./Terrace View Elementary School (4921)

5/28/85
Councilman Evans noted the Traffic Engineer Report recommended removal
of the crosswalk at Canal & Mt. Vernon because of the lack of
pedestrian use; therefore, felt it foolish to expend funds on this
project. Councilwoman Pfennighausen, with Mayor Grant concurring,
felt the project would duplicate an existing, sufficient sidewalk;
felt it did not make sense to expend $4,000 to get additional $12,000;
felt the funds could be better used elsewhere.
City Engineer Kicak outlined the area involved; responding to
Councilman Petta, advised a sidewalk would eventually be required when
the area is developed, which would probably cost approximately
$4,000. Councilman Petta felt the City should take advantage of the
additional funding for the additional improvements.
CC-85-188 Motion by Councilman Evans, Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, to
deny expenditure of funds for Account No. 4921, Sidewalk - Grand
Terrace Road/Terrace View Elementary School.
Mayor Pro Tem Matteson felt Council had approved the project;
questioned denying the funding. City Engineer Kicak stated Council
has the option not to accept the funding since the contract has not
been signed.
Motion No. CC-85-188 carried 3-2, with Councilman Petta and Mayor Pro
Tem Matteson voting NOE.
Reconstruct Barton Road, Mt. Vernon N/E To City Limits (4930)
CC-85-189 Motion by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, Second by Mayor Pro Tem
Matteson, to approve Account No. 4930, Reconstruction Barton Road,
Mt. Vernon N/E To City Limits, in the amount of $699,270, carried 4-0,
with Councilman Petta abstaining.
