Subject:
Resolution No. 5471 Approving an Intergovernmental Agreement Between the City of Chandler and Maricopa County
Proposed Motion:
Move City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 5471 approving an Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Chandler and Maricopa County for right-of-way assistance for improvements to Lindsay Road from Ocotillo Road to Hunt Highway.
Background:
This project consists of improvements to Lindsay Road, from approximately 600 feet north of Ocotillo Road to Hunt Highway, with four through lanes (two through lanes in the northbound and southbound directions), as a minor arterial standard with 55' on each side, per the 2010 Transportation Comprehensive Master Plan and subsequent 2019 Transportation Master Plan Update. This project will complete the gaps of missing arterial roadway improvements between developed communities. Improvements include new pavement, raised landscaped medians, bike lanes, center turn lane, curb, gutter, sidewalk, Americans with Disabilities Act upgrades, street lighting, drainage infrastructure, communication and traffic signal infrastructure, utility relocations, landscaping and fence restoration, traffic signal upgrades, and dual left turn lanes at intersection of Lindsay and Riggs roads. The project also includes drainage improvements such as retention basins and concrete scuppers to accommodate future drainage needs in the project area. In addition, there will be improvements to traffic signals and the traffic signal interconnect, as well as new LED street lighting and conversion of overhead electrical Salt River Project 12kV power to underground.
The project is receiving federal funds for design and a combination of federal and local funding for land acquisition and construction; therefore, environmental, right-of-way and utility clearances are being coordinated with Arizona Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration. Construction is currently scheduled to begin in Fall 2023 and expected to take 16 months to complete.
Right-of-Way acquisition from both City and unincorporated Maricopa County properties is necessary for the project. An Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) is necessary to facilitate right-of-way acquisition assistance from Maricopa County. After completion of project design and prior to construction, the City will process annexation of and assume maintenance responsibility for the Lindsay Road rights-of-way located in the County.
A related resolution setting the roadway alignment and authorizing the acquisition of right-of-way for the project is also scheduled for this City Council meeting.
