The existing four -lane section from DeForest Avenue to 1st Avenue will be converted to a three -lane section that includes a continuous center left turn lane. The existing two -lane section from Kirkwood Avenue to DeForest Avenue will remain a two -lane section from Kirkwood Avenue to Sycamore Street, and expand to a three -lane section beyond Sycamore Street. An eight -foot sidewalk will also be installed on the northeast side of Lower Muscatine Road. Sycamore Street will be realigned to create a more perpendicular intersection with Lower Muscatine Road, and provide access to Kirkwood Community College and MidAmerican Energy. The intersections along Lower Muscatine Road at Mall Drive and 1st Avenue will continue to be signalized, while an additional traffic signal will be added at the Sycamore Street intersection. City utility improvements to be included as part of this project are a new storm sewer system, a new roadway lighting system, a section of new sanitary sewer, and upgrades to the water main. History /Background: As Kirkwood Community College has continued to expand their Iowa City campus, it has created additional demands to the surrounding transportation network, and Lower Muscatine Road in particular. In addition, Lower Muscatine Road includes minimal storm sewer facilities, deteriorating pavement, and does not meet current design standards. Based on these issues, traffic congestion and the safety of drivers, bicyclists and pedestrians have become increasing concerns throughout the corridor. Discussion of Solutions: Design for this project has progressed for several years, including several public meetings and ongoing public input. Throughout the design process, the basic design criteria have remained, such as two -lane and three -lane cross - sections throughout the residential and commercial sections of the project, respectively. However, design considerations were made for individual properties, and the project as a whole, based on feedback from the public. Based on this feedback, the project evolved to include additional details, such as bus turnouts, to help improve the project and surrounding areas. The project had previously been bid in April of 2012, with bids coming in approximately 35% over the construction estimate. Following the rejection of the bids, the project plans, budget and schedule were reevaluated to determine why the bids were higher than estimated, and how to bring the project more in line with the budget if it were rebid. The process resulted in a combination of reducing restrictions on the project staging and schedule, reducing the amount of work included in the project, and increasing the project budget. Financial Impact: The estimated construction cost for this project is $7,193,000 and will be funded with Federal Surface Transportation Program (STP) proceeds, Water revenues, Wastewater revenues, General Obligation bond proceeds and a contribution from Kirkwood Community College.

This Resolution of Necessity for amendment #10 to the City- University Project I Urban Renewal Area sets the dates of a consultation to be held with other taxing jurisdictions in the county and for a Public Hearing on the plan. While the draft plan for the amended City- University Project I Urban Renewal Area will be on file with the City Clerk. Council's decision on Sept. 18 is simply whether to adopt the Resolution of Necessity. History /background The original City- University Project I Urban Renewal Area was established in 1969 and has been amended nine times since to accomplish various urban renewal objectives. A substantial portion of the land located in the proposed amendment is part of the Riverfront Crossings area east of the river and would add approximately 300 acres to the area. Discussion of Solution The amended area will allow for an orderly expansion of the City's downtown /central core and provide opportunities for the redevelopment of the Riverfront Crossings area. In addition to supporting development of mixed -use, transit - oriented neighborhoods, the amended area will also return some flood -prone properties to parkland, wetlands and trails. Amending the area will create the ability to use tax increment financing to assist in building the required infrastructure and /or in providing incentives for new development. Coupled with the newly completed Downtown & Riverfront Crossings Master Plan, the area will now have a design plan and the financial opportunities made possible through the use of TIF to expand the tax base with redevelopment of blighted, flood prone and /or underutilized areas. Recommendations Staff recommends approving the Resolution of Necessity to enable a consultation with the other taxing entities and to set a Public Hearing for the plan on October 23, 2012.
