To buy the property the <br />purchase and recording fees were charged to Fund 333 – Transportation SDC’s. <br /> <br />Resolution 4953 states “The bond proceeds will be used to overlay or reconstruct the driving surface of streets, as well <br />as to preserve existing integral elements of the street such as curbs, gutters, sidewalks, on-street bike lanes, traffic <br />signals, street lights, medians, traffic calming devices, and other integral parts of a street preservation project. These <br />preservation efforts will be undertaken only to preserve existing elements, not to expand the capacity of the street <br />system…” <br /> <br />I will move the expenditures to the bond funds unless I hear differently from PWE, for the following reasons. <br />1.ADA sidewalk/ramp improvements are required to bring access ramps up to code when preserving a street. <br /> <br />2.To bring it up to code The City needed more right-of-way. <br /> <br />3.This is preserving the existing ramp not expanding the capacity. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Tammy Smith <br /> <br />Financial Analyst <br /> <br />City of Eugene <br /> <br />Public Works Administration <br /> <br />Phone: 541 682-5834 <br /> <br />Fax: 541 682-6826 <br /> <br />E-mail: tammy.d.smith@ci.eugene.or.us <br /> <br /> <br />2 <br />
