Item No. 1 252 . J
Date: July 22, 2013
Item/Subject: Resolve, Authorizing the City Manager to Accept and Appropriate $127,503 in
Transportation Enhancement Grant Funds and Transfer $31,876 in Local Matching Funds from
the Sidewalk Capital Account to Construct a Sidewalk in the Downeast School Area
Responsible Department: Public Services
Commentary: This resolve will authorize the City Manager to accept and appropriate
$127,503 in Transportation Enhancement Grant funds and transfer $31,876 in the sidewalk
capital account for the local match to construct a sidewalk in the Downeast school area. This
grant would fund the construction of a new sidewalk on the westerly side of Finson Road from
Blue Hill East to Davis Road.
At this time, these projects have been placed on the approved project list awaiting future
funding, and will move forward only when and if federal funding becomes available. By
appropriating the local share, the City will be able to design the project, which will designate it
as "shovel ready". "Shovel ready" projects will be funded first once funding becomes available.
This was reviewed and recommendation for approval by the Infrastructure Committee on July
9, 2013.
