DISCUSSION
Last year staff submitted an application for 5th Street and Jackson
Street for Hazard Elimination Safety (HES) funding. The City has received
approval of the proposed grant of $237,600. The City Council must also
adopt a resolution and authorize the Executive Director of the Public
Works Agency to formally submit the project for funding as required by
Caltrans.
This grant will provide for the design and construction of a traffic
signal at the intersection of 5th Street and Jackson Street. City
matching funds in the amount of $26,400 are required. Traffic signal
design is underway and installation is expected in September 2006.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Environmental review will be conducted for this project and will be
presented to the City Council when the construction contract is awarded.
This type of project typically qualifies for a Categorical Exemption.
