TO: Redevelopment Commission
FROM: Liz Maradik
SUBJECT: Establishing Budget for Fellows Streetscape
ITEM: 5.13.(8)
The City has worked with MGLM Architects to develop the Southeast Neighborhood Master Plan which
was made available for public comment at the end of last year. The plan identifies infrastructure
improvements as a top priority for the neighborhood. Given this priority, the city wishes to complete
streetscape work along Fellows Street as part of plan implementation. Anticipated improvements
include curbs, sidewalks, trees (where they will fit in tree lawn), street paving, and potentially
pedestrian -scale lighting.
Staff requests that the Redevelopment Commission approve $1,350,000 in funding, from the River
West Development Area, for Fellows Street infrastructure improvement related engineering and
construction.
