Background/Discussion: |
On June 15, 2023, City Council approved Phase 1 of the Wall Street Improvements project, consisting of the conversion of Arizona Public Service (APS) existing overhead power lines to underground facilities and additional transformers to allow for future redevelopment along Wall Street.

This contract is for Phase 2 of the construction of Wall Street Improvements. The project scope of work consists of aesthetic enhancements promoting pedestrian connectivity and safety, colored stamped concrete, utilities, landscape and irrigation, signs, entry monument, outdoor benches and chairs, and lighting improvements. Due to the proximity of and impact on local businesses, construction is scheduled to commence on May 1, 2024, to avoid the peak season for downtown activity. The city has engaged in extensive communication with these area businesses to prepare them for the project and will continue to communicate actively throughout the duration of the project. The agreement completion is time is 180 calendar days following Notice to Proceed. A related Professional Services Agreement with Consultant Engineering, Inc., for the Wall Street Improvements, is also scheduled for this City Council meeting. |

An appropriation transfer will be processed in FY 2023-24 in the amount of $1,147,821 from the Tumbleweed Ranch program (6CA670), and $218,400 from the Downtown Redevelopment program (6CA619), to the Downtown Alley Project (6CA671). The appropriation transferred out in FY 2023-24 from the Tumbleweed Ranch program (6CA670) and Downtown Redevelopment (6CA619) will be reappropriated in the Proposed FY 2024-25 budget. This transfer of budgetary capacity will not negatively impact the timing of Tumbleweed Ranch improvements. |
