RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE the plans for Pomona Street Raised Crosswalk Project, as recommended by the Public Works Director, Crockett Area.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Project will be funded 100% through Phillips 66 Grant Funds.

BACKGROUND:

This project includes construction of curb ramps and an elevated crosswalk on Pomona Street, approximately 700 feet east of Rolph Park Drive, to replace the current mid-block crossing. This raised crosswalk will improve safety for pedestrians by making pedestrians more visible and calming traffic. The project was determined to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act as a Class 15303(d) Categorical Exemption. The Notice of Exemption was filed with the County Clerk on February 15, 2015.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Delay in approving the project may jeopardize funding.
