SUBJECT:
Approval of plans and authorization to advertise for bids - widen and pave "E" Street and
Kendall Drive from 36th Street to "H" Street per Plan No. 9780
BACKGROUND:
Specifications are now complete and we are ready to advertise for bids for this project that
consists of widening and paving "E" Street and Kendall Drive between 36th and "H" Streets and
providing 4 lanes of traffic. Additionally, it closes the intersection of Arrowhead Avenue at "E"
Street and Kendall Avenue and provides a turn-around and access from the east. This complies
with the General Plan Circulation Element and will provide congestion relief in this portion of
the city.
Two of the four properties are yet to reach settlement through the City Attorney's office;
however, settlement is expected within the two to three months required to advertise, accept bids
and prepare the award. The contract will not be awarded until such time as all necessary
easements are obtained.
