STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT:
Approval of Plans and Authorization to Advertise for Bids - Installation of Handicapped Ramps Phase

BACKGROUND:
Installation of handicapped ramps along streets has been programmed for the last several years. The
proposed ramps follow the adopted policy for installation in that they cover public facilities, schools,
retail areas and places of public accommodation in a set order. The CDBG application provided for
$50,000.00 for construction. This is the second set of ramps and reflects those that do require
additional right of way and/or relocation of major facilities. Phase I is bidding and included the ramps
that did not require right of way of utility relocations.
The Memorandum of Understanding was completed and approval given to begin design March 17, 1998
and this second portion of the project represents approximately 40 additional ramps to be constructed.
Plans are now complete and we are ready to advertise for bids to complete this final portion of the
project.

Community Development Block Grant Projects Fund under Account No. 97-233 in an amount of
$50,000.00. Phase I allocated approximately$25,000.00 of the total leaving$25,000.00 for this second
