The A & P Commission has agreed to contribute $460,000 towards the improvements which include replacing street lights, benches, brick planters and plantings, upgrading the water feature, adding tree grates, sidewalk replacement, improved lighting and electrical distribution , curb and gutter replacement, and street overlay. The City has agreed to match funding from the A & P Commission to contribute to the improvements. Several surrounding property owners including Arvest, the University of Arkansas and East Square Development have also contributed improvements. Participation from additional property owners is anticipated. Current Status Improvements to the downtown Square area began in April of 2007 with the renovation of the water feature on the northwest comer and the installation of new benches and trash cans. Sidewalk improvements have been made adjacent to the Continuing Education building on the northeast corner. Additional improvements to be made include adding path lighting along the interior of the Square, replacing sidewalks around the exterior of the Square as well as around the Old Post Office, replacing the wooden wall around the west and south sides of the Old Post Office with native stone and repairing the brick paths in the gardens. Upgrades to the electrical system around the Square are also needed. Electrical upgrades include relocating unsightly electrical panels and boxes, adding path lighting and replacing outdated equipment. King Electric has the City's contract for electrical work and has worked on much of the existing electrical system on the Square in the past and has a vast knowledge of the current conditions. Their familiarity of the systems is key to the timeliness and efficiency of the work. Improvements to the interior of the Square are scheduled to be complete by the opening of the Farmer's Market. Budget Impact Electrical improvements are anticipated to cost $165,000 for the necessary upgrades and replacements. This will be part of the City's matching funds for the Square area improvements. Recommendation Parks and Recreation requests City Council approval of a resolution to authorize the City to waive formal bidding requirements for the electrical work needed for the Square area improvements and to approve the attached contract with King Electric.
