Summary |
||||
|
The Greenbriar Neighborhood Association has requested consideration of a Joint Participation CIP project for landscaping improvements. The location is on a parcel of land owned by the City that is at the Greenbriar neighborhood’s entry at the intersection of Eldridge Road and Greenway Drive. The Joint Participation CIP was created to facilitate opportunistic partnerships, such as this, that will have both private and public benefit. The total project budget is $16,000.00; the Greenbriar Neighborhood Association will reimburse the City for half of the project cost in accordance with the City Policy on Joint Funded CIP projects. The Greenbriar Neighborhood Association has received the approval of a majority of their neighborhood required to participate in the CIP project. The existing, unimproved, 0.5-acre parcel of land is currently owned and maintained by the City. The landscape improvements proposed include a fence along Eldridge Road, trees, shrubs, benches and irrigation. Maintenance levels will be increased to that of the adjacent right-of-way. City staff will review the proposal that has been received from the HOA and will answer questions regarding the project. The SL4B board will be asked to vote on a funding resolution for this project. If approved, the fiscal year 2007/08 budget will be adjusted by $8,000 in revenues and expenditures to reflect the HOA contribution to the project cost. Under the Corporation’s bylaws, the budget adjustment will not be effective until it is approved by the City Council. |
