RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of a resolution expressing the willingness of the City of Fayetteville to participate in partial funding of the proposed widening of Highway 16 from Highway 71B east to Stone Bridge Road. BACKGROUND The proposed Transportation Improvement Plan contains several street widening projects that are state highways within the City limits. In an effort to reduce the City's costs for these projects, the City Administration has contacted the Arkansas Stare Highway & Transportation Department and has been successful in establishing partnerships for several of these projects. CURRENT STATUS The -Arkansas State Highway & Transportation Department (AHTD) is in the process of developing the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) for the fiscal years 2007 through 2010. The AHTD has proposed a 50 percent cost share up to $5 million for the widening of Highway 16 from Highway 71B to Stone Bridge Road. This portion of Highway 16 is currently listed in the City Transportation Improvement Plan as two projects: 1.) Huntsville Road from Stone Bridge to Happy Hollow and 2.) 15'h Street from Happy Hollow to S. College. At this time, the AHTD has requested that the City "provide a resolution referring specifically to the proposed project and to the level of funding committed to the project." 1 City Council Meeting of June 6, 2006 BUDGET IMPACT There is no cost associated with this request at this time. However, in the future, the city will be obligated to pay 50% of the project costs up to $5,000,000 in order to utilize the state funds. These matching funds are currently being planned to be paid with the proposed Transportation Improvement Bond Issue. If this bond issue does not proceed or is not successful in an election, an alternate source for this funding will need to be identified or the project cancelled. 2 • RESOLUTION NO.
