Councilmember Kuzma asked if the City portion of $58,096 is equal to 30 percent of the engineer’s estimate. Deputy City Administrator Gladhill confirmed that to be true. Councilmember Musgrove asked if the $58,096 would come from the City PIR fund. She asked if the HRA funds could be used.

He noted that staff could explore that possibility if desired. He noted that many of the HRA dollars are encumbered for Puma Street and Riverdale Drive.

She asked if Helium Street was reconstructed in 2019. Deputy City Administrator Gladhill stated that he does not have that answer. Councilmember Musgrove noted that the road was improved in 2018 or 2019 and therefore would th not want to see construction traffic on that roadway.
