APPROVED By: Sbi(IDIAISMITH, City Clerk City Council Meeting of February 7, 2006 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO To: Mayor and City Council Thru: Gary Dumas, Director of Operations From. Ron Petrie, City Engineer it4 Date: January 18, 2006 Subject: Resolution authorizing the design and construction of a traffic signal at the intersection of 15`h Street and Momingside Drive by City staff. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of a resolution authorizing the design and construction of a traffic signal at the intersection of 15`h Street and Morningside Drive by City staff. BACKGROUND On September 20, 2005 the City of Fayetteville Engineering Division requested that the Arkansas State Highway and Transportation Department perform a traffic signal study at the intersection of Highway 16 (15`h Street) and Morningside Drive. On December 28, 2005, the AHTD reported that the study indicated that a traffic signal is warranted. This signalization project is eligible for 90% state and federal funding for construction and engineering costs. However, to utilize these funds, the project will have to wait until the AHTD has the money available in the future. This signalization project was presented at the January 12, 2006 meeting of the City of Fayetteville Street Committee. The committee agreed to forward the project to the full council with a recommendation to design and construct the signal at this time. This project will be designed in-house by the Engineering Division and constructed in-house by the Transportation Division. BUDGET IMPACT There is currently $220,530 41 in the City fund titled Morningside Drive & 15th Street Signalization (Project #05010). 1 LO" O tti _ -E • ER.Si `SLI' MOUNTAIN1T �� SJ, \RODGE/ZSt-,--- GP SKYLINE -04, 0 3 ni QW m 4HUNTSVI ��Fqo ELIFFSBLVD �P`INEW:NK FAIRLANE.S C P of 0 rn co 73TH•ST ESI ELENSI E POP CH d UJ re IL LL 9THST I 22ND c. •PRIVATE•2903 cics PJ .�4 Cr 4"k not -+ r'� 207p1.Gi C'1r /•'JJ GIRO a PRIVA; 023 a O 0 fY PRIVATE.2487 —BORICK.DR tot 4 Morningside Dr. & 15th St Signalization N A ARKANSAS STATE HIGHWAY RECEIVED AND JAN p4ate TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENTENGINEERING DIV Dan Flowers Director Telephone (501) 569-2000 Mr. Ron Petrie City Engineer - Fayetteville 113 West Mountain Fayetteville, Arkansas 72701 Dear Mr. Petrie: December 28, 2005 P.O. Box 2261 Little Rock, Arkansas 72203-2261 Telefax (501)569-2400 Reference is made to Mr. Paul Libertini's letter of September 20, 2005 requesting a traffic signal study at the intersection of Highway 16 (15th Street) at Morningside Drive. Our study is complete and included a 24- hour traffic count, an on-site investigation and a review of the accident history. The results of our study indicate that a traffic signal is warranted as outlined in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. A signalization project for the City is eligible for 90% state and federal funding for construction and engineering costs. The City will be responsible for 10% of the construction and engineering costs, and for 100% of the cost of any additional right-of-way or utility adjustments required. The City will also be responsible for providing electrical power and signal maintenance once the project is complete. Enclosed are two copies of a sample Resolution for the City Council to pass. After the Resolution is passed and signed by the Mayor, please return one resolution to my office and we will program a project. Please note, there is an approximately two to three year backlog of traffic signal projects waiting for funding. If the City desires to expedite this signal installation, we can issue a permit to the City to install this traffic signal using 100% city funds.
