Background: The existing striping along Sunwood Drive between Armstrong Boulevard and Ramsey Boulevard is missing or faded in many areas, and some areas are not striped appropriately based on development that occurred since the street was originally striped. Staff therefore prepared plans and specifications for completing striping improvements along this segment of Sunwood Drive in 2017, which is Improvement Project #17-04. Staff presented preliminary draft plans for proposed Sunwood Drive striping improvements to the Public Works Committee on April 18th. Based on feedback received from the Public Works Committee Staff prepared draft plans and specifications which were presented to the Public Works Committee on June 20th. The Public Works Committee recommended City Council approval of plans and specifications. Attached are copies of the draft plans and specifications. In summary, the draft plans replace all existing center two-way turn lanes with dedicated left turn lanes for public streets and private accesses based on existing access locations. Several dedicated right turn lanes were also added. The plans incorporate dedicated left turn lanes for Casey's gas station and convenience store, the west driveway for the Residence at the COR apartments, and for the new segment of Yolite Street south of Sunwood Drive that will be constructed as part of the Stonebrook Day Care development. In addition, dedicated right turn lanes are proposed at Yolite Street, Casey's, and Center Street. No street sign removals or improvements are shown in the plans. Public Works staff will complete this work in-house using existing staff and resources. If the attached plans and specifications are approved and advertisements for bids are authorized this evening, the proposed project schedule would be as follows: • June 27th — Council approves plans and specifications and authorizes bids • June 30th and July 7th — Bids advertised a July 21 st — Public bid opening
