BACKGROUND AND PREVIOUS ACTIONS
On June 9, 2025, Council approved the FY 2026 budget, which included the expenditures for CIP Projects, including the Traffic Signal at Cotton Lane and Camelback Road (CIP #42080) project.
STAFF ANALYSIS
The Traffic Signal Improvements at Cotton Lane and Camelback Road (CIP #42080) project includes proposed improvements at the Cotton Lane and Camelback Road intersection to install a new traffic signal, provide Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant intersection curb ramps, and modify pavement striping on all intersection legs. A portion of these improvements are within city of Glendale right of way, specifically the northwest and northeast quadrants of the Cotton Lane and Camelback Road intersection.
The existing Cotton Lane and Camelback Road intersection is unsignalized with stop sign control in all directions. The proposed IGA outlines the requirements of Goodyear and Glendale relating to the construction, maintenance, and operation of a traffic signal at this intersection. This IGA provides for the city to construct, operate, and maintain the traffic signal, which will be designed to Goodyear standards. Upon completion of the traffic signal, Goodyear will own, operate, and maintain the traffic signal, including the improvements located within Glendale's jurisdiction. The IGA requires Glendale to waive permit and plan review fees for the construction of the traffic signal improvements located within Glendale, grants Goodyear a blanket permit for routine and minor maintenance and emergency work on the traffic signal improvements located within Glendale, and further requires Glendale to waive fees for permits needed for work on the traffic signal improvements located within Glendale for major maintenance and non-emergency work. Under the terms of the IGA, Glendale will reimburse Goodyear fifty percent (50%) of the cost of the design and construction of the traffic signal following the completion and acceptance of the traffic signal improvements.
Staff recommends approving Resolution No. 2026-2540 (Attachment A) approving and authorizing the execution of an IGA with the city of Glendale for construction, operation, and maintenance of a traffic signal at Cotton Lane and Camelback Road.
