<br />One of the ctitical fitst items of work will be to establish a
<br />detailed conceptual alignment, similar to what is shown in
<br />the RFP Exhibit "B" (see Exhibit I), showing the precise
<br />alignment of all of the proposed striping, raised medians
<br />(setting left turn pocket lengths), parkway curb lines, bus bay
<br />turnouts, sidewalks, landscaped parkways, existing I proposed
<br />right-oF-way lines and required right-oF-way acquisitions
<br />(including both partial takes and full takes). There will likely be several design alternatives at various locations
<br />throughout the project, with the intent of minimizing or consolidating impacts on existing properties, such as
<br />considering symmetrical cul-de-sac bulbs versus a cul-de-sac bulbs with an off-set to one side.
<br />
<br />The Harris Team intends to impress City staff, and establish a firm foundation for the project, by developing a
<br />sound conceptual alignment that incorporates all of the various city goals to enhance vehicular and pedestrian
<br />circulation as well as significantly the improve project area aesthetics. A presentation worthy colored exhibit will
<br />be prepared to clearly illustrate the various design elements and layouts for City staff's use at various city council,
<br />planning and community meetings. Once
<br />City staff has approved the conceptual
<br />alignment we will be well positioned to
<br />make simultaneous progress on all of the
<br />project design elements at an accelerated
<br />pace.

<br />The project will require a full spectrum of professional services
<br />including survey. right-of-way engineering, geotechnical
<br />engineering, civil engineering, structural engineering, traffic
<br />engineering, and landscape architecture design services, with

<br />Photo J - Proposed Cul-de-sac location: This westerly
<br />Pine Street intersection is I of 8 proposed fUl-de-sac
<br />locations. The yellow mealUring wheel in the front yard is
<br />approximate~ where the widened wester~ turb line will be
<br />along Bristol Street, hence this house at 30l Bristol Street
<br />will likely be one of the 74 full take properties that (ity staff
<br />have estimated will be required.

<br />Exhihit I - Preliminary Conceptual layout (ity
<br />staff have prepared this Preliminary (onceptual layout
<br />for the proposed Bristol Street Widening. Although it is
<br />antitipated that significant refinemenn will be made
<br />during the initial design development phase it is still a
<br />good tommunitation device as to the essential project
<br />intents.
