Description) ImiDrovement of, Arden Avenue - North of Pacific Street Finance: Council Notes: Agenda Item No. �S CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT The development of a soccer complex at Patton Park North was recently approved by the Community Development Commission. Funds were included in the original Construction Cost Budget to finance the improvement of the east side of Arden Avenue , as a part of this complex. However; these funds were deleted from the approved budget. The lack of street improvements along Arden Avenue would give an unfinished appearance to the new soccer complex. Also, the improvements could be installed as a part of this complex for less cost, than at a later date as a separate project. An amount of $300 , 000 has been allocated in the 1996/97 1/2-Cent Sales & Road Tax Budget, under Account No. 129-367-5504-- 7064 , to finance the cost of widening the Rialto Avenue Bridge over the East Twin Creek Channel. We are in the process of selecting a. consulting engineer to prepare the construction plans and special provisions . Preparation of the plans, and securing the required environmental clearance and permits will extend over the majority of this fiscal year. Our preliminary estimate of cost for installing curb and gutter, sidewalk, street lights and fill-in pavement is $172 , 500 . We recommend that the transfer of $172 , 500 , from the amount allocated for widening the Rialto Avenue Bridge to Arden Avenue improvements , be approved. Supplemental funds to finance the cost for widening the Rialto Avenue Bridge can be provided in the 1997/98 Budget, to replace the funds transferred to finance the cost of improving Arden Avenue. 10-01-96 75.0264
