PETALUMA COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING ADDITIONAL SCOPE AND NEW PROJECT BUDGET .FOR
THE PETALUMA BOULEVARD NORTH STREET IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT #C200304
WHEREAS, consolidating the environmental clearance process for traffic signal and ADA
improvements at the intersection of Petaluma Boulevard North and Washington Street, originally
planned for the Washington arid Sixth Street Rehabilitation Project, with existing Project
#C200304 would be more efficient and permit earlier completion of ADA-compliant ramps at
this intersection; and,
WHEREAS, in order to include these improvements in the Petaluma Boulevard North Street
Improvements Project, staff is requesting Council authorization to add to the scope of that
project and revise the budget; and,
WHEREAS, at the time the Petaluma Boulevard North Street Improvements Project
construction contract was awarded, $485,000 in Federal Transportation Improvement Program
(FTIP) and State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) funds (a Transportation for Livable
Communities Grant), earmarked for the project, appeared to be in jeopardy; and,
WHEREAS, PCDC funding was allocated instead, leaving the grant, which was
subsequently awarded, available for use, once authorized; and
WHEREAS, the draft ADA Self Evaluation and Transition Plan, updated July 2006, states
that one of the City's Level 1 priorities is placement of curb ramps at primary access walks as
City-funded public improvements are implemented; and,
WHEREAS, completing ADA-compliant ramps at this intersection at the earliest
opportunity will affirm the City's commitment to the Americans with Disabilities Act.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Council of the City of Petaluma and the
Petaluma Community Development Commission (PCDC) hereby:
