FROM: Kara Boyles
SUBJECT: Budget Request for Safe Routes to School
Funding Source* (circle one) River West; River East; South Side; Douglas Road; West Washington; RDC General
*Funds are subject to the City Controller's determination of availability; if funds are unavailable, as solely determined by the City Controller,
then the authorization of the expenditure of such funds shall be void and of no effect.
Purpose of Request:
The budget request of $155,250 will fund supplements to the Professional Services Agreements
for Safe Routes to School at Muessel Primary/Holy Cross Area [Proj. No. 122-005] and Our Lady
of Hungary Neighborhood [Proj. No. 122-006]. The PSA supplements will cover additional
surveying and design for elements outside the original scope of the projects as both projects
were able to be expanded outside the original design area.
These projects are funded 80% by INDOT. The City is responsible for 100% of professional
engineering services invoices upfront with 80% reimbursement after each payment.
These projects will improve walking routes to school for Muessel Primary, Holy Cross, and Our
Lady of Hungary students, including sidewalks and ADA curb ramps. This project promotes
walking and provides ADA accessibility to students traveling to school, as well as reducing drop
off and pick up congestion. In addition to students, other populations will benefit from improved
connectivity and accessibility of walking routes, including those with disabilities and the elderly.
