Prepared by: Bolton & Menk, Inc. INTRODUCTION Jackson Street Improvements ǀ 0N1.125375 Page 1 I. INTRODUCTION The City of Little Canada is planning roadway reconstruction efforts on Jackson Street during the 2024 construction season, in accordance with the Capital Improvement Plan. This report will focus on proposed improvements associated with the 2024 Improvements, City Project No. 2024-02. Refer to Figure 1 in Appendix A for a depiction of the project area. This report focuses on roadway improvements that include pavement reconstruction, new curb and gutter, minor watermain improvements, storm and sanitary sewer improvements, and other improvements in accordance with the City’s Comprehensive Plan. This report will review the existing conditions of the defined project area and discuss, in detail, the proposed improvements. The report will also provide preliminary cost estimates for the proposed improvements with financing for the projects coming from a combination of special assessments and the City’s Infrastructure Capital Improvement Fund. An informational meeting for the project area was held on September 26, 2023. There, the proposed project scope, costs, and funding sources were discussed with the opportunity for property owners to comment on the project and ask questions. A representative from one property attended the informational presentation and open floor project discussion with staff. Another property owner that was unable to attend the informational meeting called project staff the next day to hear more about the proposed project and ask questions. Generally, the two property owners that engaged with project staff had general questions about the process and special assessments. Project staff did not hear or receive any notable opposition to the proposed improvements or project in general. If the City elects to proceed with the proposed street and utility improvements described in this report, it is anticipated that construction would begin in 2024 as detailed in the project schedule found on Page 7.
