RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the initial payment of $5.0M to the Arkansas State Highway & Transportation Depal lment (AHTD) to widen Crossover Road (Hwy 265) from Mission Boulevard to Joyce Street. BACKGROUND: On September 7, 2004, the City Council passed Resolution No. 137-04 that expressed "the intent of the Fayetteville City Council to participate with the Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department on Improvements to Highway 265 from Highway 45 to the Northern City Limits." Based on this resolution, the City of Fayetteville included $7.7M in the Transportation Bond Program for this cost share which was approved on September 12, 2006 by ballot. On July 3, 2007, the City Council passed Resolution No. 122-07 that reaffirmed "the adopted policy of the City of Fayetteville that Highway 265 North of Mission Boulevard be widened as a principal arterial as depicted on the City Master Street Plan and as shown as Alternate H-1 by the Arkansas Highway & Transportation Department." On March 18, 2008, the City Council passed Resolution No. 71-08 that reaffirmed the City's commitment of $7.7M, and changed the original project limits of Highway 45 to the City limits to the reduced project limits of Highway 45 to Joyce Boulevard. DISCUSSION: The City received a letter dated July 21, 2990 from the Arkansas State Highway & Transportation Department requesting that the City make its initial payment of $5.0M at this time. AHTD is nearing completion of the right-of-way plans and has begun real estate appraisals in preparation for land acquisition this fall. Utility adjustments should begin in mid -2010. AHTD hopes to let the construction contract by mid -2011. 1 City Council Meeting of August 18, 2009 BUDGET IMPACT: The City currently has $7.7M budgeted for this project through the Transportation Bond Program.
