4TUAN ORDINANCE TO CONSIDER APPROVING AN AGREEMENT WITH MISSOURI HIGHWAYS AND TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION FOR THE CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT (CBD) RESURFACING PHASE 2 PROJECTU4T
City Manager Gipson reported that this item was last before the Board of Alderman for consideration at the July 26, 2022 meeting. During the discussion at that meeting, there were questions from the board regarding the removal of the brick paver crosswalks. The crosswalks were listed as part of the project grant application; however, they were non-participating items to be paid fully by the City. City staff has confirmed with East-West Gateway that the brick paver crosswalks can be removed from this project grant as well as the existing grant agreement for the Central Business District Phase 1 project. The cost of brick paver crosswalk for both projects is estimated to be $364,520 ($233,520 for Phase 1 and $131,000 for Phase 2). East West Gateway confirmed by email that the removal of these non-participatory items is permitted under the grant and the agreement can be executed in its current form with the items removed during design if desired. This means a decision on whether to include these items in the project can be made at a future date.
