CITY OF COLTON AGENDA REPORT FOR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 21, 1994 'ru: nUNURABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL DATE:June 16, 1994 FROM: JOHN C. HUTTON Public Works Director SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO PROCEED WITH THE SOUTH LA CADENA BEAUTIFICATION PROJECT, FINAL PHASES II AND III BACKGROUND: The So. La Cadena Drive Beautification Project area which consists of the renovation, reconstruction and installation of all public street improvements including new curbs, sidewalks, ramps, cross gutters, paving, landscaping and irrigation within all corporate limit areas of Colton from Interstate 10 to Interstate 215 (91) is ready to proceed with bidding for construction of the final phases II and III. The Project which had received approvals as a locally funded Capital Improvement Proj ect, partially funded by Communi ty Development Block Grant Funds, fall considerably short of its original estimate submitted to CDBG upon completion of its detailed engineering design and scope of improvements. Although funding totalling $420,000 was approved by the CBDG Program, total cost of the project upon detailed analysis was estimated to exceed $1.6 million for all improvements being sought. Public Works was vested with the Project and with limited funding available, alternative sources for funding the Project, and scoping it into phases became a necessity. Phase I, now completed at a cost of nearly $700,000 dollars was possible due to the additional funding made available by County Host City Fees, qualified due to the location of County Landfill site.
