Information

Agenda Item

Resolution - Public Works Traffic Management: Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute Amendment No. 1 to Contract 17858, with AtkinsRealis, for additional engineering services related to the City's Americans with Disabilities Act Transition Plan Sidewalk Gap Analysis Project.

Item Summary

In order to stay compliant with federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) law, municipalities must develop an ADA transition plan.  This plan describes how a city will become compliant with all aspects of ADA law and must include a sidewalk gap analysis.  The sidewalk gap analysis portion of the transition plan outlines missing and deficient sidewalks and curb ramps throughout the city.  It must be available to the public, and must include steps a city will take to remedy deficiencies identified. In January 2024, the City entered into an agreement with AtkinsRealis to begin work on Phase 1 of the sidewalk gap analysis, which included areas identified by the United States Department of Transportation Justice40 Initiative, as those among the most disadvantaged in the City. The Phase 1 study and the associated technical memo were recently completed by AtkinsRealis.  Amendment No. 1 of the contract will allow AtkinsRealis to begin work on Phase 2 of the sidewalk gap analysis, which will address access issues related to bus stops and sidewalks at Citibus stops throughout the City. After access issues have been identified in Phase 2, AtkinsRealis will develop a technical memo to document findings and outline a methodology for compliance.

Fiscal Impact

Amendment No. 1 of Contract Number 17858 with AtkinsRealis, for $204,855, is funded in Capital Improvement Project 92750, American Disability Act Ramp and Sidewalk Project.
