City of Oak Creek

Common Council Report

 

Meeting Date: February 20, 2006

 

Item No.:        

 

Recommendation:  That the Common Council adopts Resolution No. 10608-022006, a resolution accepting the recommendations of the CIP Committee to authorize the S. Howell Avenue sidewalk improvement projects listed below (Project No. 06012) (3rd & 5th Aldermanic Districts).

 

Background:  On February 7, 2006, the CIP Committee discussed the incomplete sidewalk segments along S. Howell Avenue and recommended the following sidewalk segments for construction under public contract.  The Engineering Department would prepare the plans, specifications and bid documents.  Since the volume of sidewalk is high, we expect to receive favorable bids.  It is hoped that the additional segment can be added.
