<br /> MINUTES <br /> <br /> CITY COUNCIL <br /> <br /> MAY 12, 2010 <br /> may allow for the installation of sidewalks along this segment of Little <br /> Canada Road. <br /> Blesener suggested that if Lanes are reduced, it may be possible to recycle <br /> the road leaving the north edge where it presently is, freeing up right-of <br /> way for a sidewalk along the south side of the street. <br /> The City Administrator suggested that these issues could be addressed as <br /> part of an RFP for Little Canada Road sri•eetscape, or he and the City <br /> Engineer could work with the County and determine the range of <br /> possibilities. Once the information is compiled, it could be included in an <br /> RFP for streetscape. The Administrator suggested that while it may slow <br /> down the process, the result may be a better project. <br /> The City Administrator indicated that as part of putting the RFP together, <br /> he has pulled together photos and aerials of the focal points along Little <br /> Canada Road from Lakeshore Avenue to Edgerton Street. These would be <br /> included in the RFP document. <br /> There was discussion of the possibility of segmenting the RFP separating <br /> it into two projects, Little Canada Road on either side of the freeway. The <br /> City Adminisri•ator indicated that he also needs to address the County <br /> Road B-2/Rice Street area planning for landscaping and streetscape <br /> elements for that intersection once the bakery buildings are removed. <br /> Keis asked for an estimate of costs for the streetscape work. The City <br /> Administrator estimated $10,000 for a basic plan with a range upward <br /> from that point. He noted the work that Hoisington Koegler did for the <br /> Rice Street/Little Canada Road streetscape. <br /> The consensus of the discussion was that the City Administrator should try <br /> to obtain information fi•om the County relative to the east side of Little <br /> Canada Road, and include that segment in the Streetscape RFP. If that <br /> cannot be done in a timely manner, the Administrator should proceed with <br /> a streetscape RFP for the west side of Little Canada Road as well as the <br /> County Road B-2/Rice Street area. <br /> There being no further business, the workshop was adjourned at 7:22 p.m. <br /> r~ <br /> dam Bleu er, <br /> Mayor <br /> Attes : owl /C'. iH <br /> oel F arson, City Administrator <br /> 3 <br /> <br />
