RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that City Council approve the resolution ordering improvements identified in the W.O. 22-07 Mullowney Lane Improvements reconstruction project.
BACKGROUND (Consistency with Adopted Plans and Policies, if applicable)
W.O. 22-07 Mullowney Lane Improvements consists of improving Mullowney Lane from the Midland Road/South Frontage Road intersection south to Elysian Road. Mullowney Lane will be constructed to a 3-lane street including a two-way-left-turn-lane, sidewalk on the west side, 10-foot multi-use trail on the east side, curb and gutter, storm drain, irrigation, streetlights, and a signalized intersection at Elysian Road. A landscaped, traffic-calming median island is included for the Holiday Avenue intersection located at the mid-point between Midland Road and Elysian Road. Staff has contacted and visited with property owners individually during project development. Staff held one public meeting, and has contacted property owners via three letters between July 2022 and February 2023.
The resolution was created in accordance with Resolution 18-10719 and State law (MCA 7-14-4109). All properties within the City limits that are currently missing street improvements fronting Mullowney Lane are being assessed for curb and gutter, sidewalk or multi-use path, and other appurtenant miscellaneous improvements such as concrete drive approaches, driveway asphalt, storm drain stubs, and seeding of disturbed areas.
City funds are being used to reconstruct that majority of the street in the project that is consistent with how similar streets are being constructed in other neighborhoods.
