Former Railroad Parking Lot Improvements <br /> <br />Street/Park Superintendent, Phil Hals, and his staff have <br />put together an illustration for certain parking lot <br />improvements on the former railroad property bounded by <br />Jackson Avenue, U.S., Highway 10, Hunt's Feeds, and the <br />railroad tracks. This illustration was also reviewed by <br />the 'Development, Corporation ,at its meeting on September <br />1st. <br /> <br />It maybe appropriate to implement improvements on this <br />site due to the cost savings relative to the curbing work <br />required by the Jackson Square site and for this site. <br />That is, should the HRA-City decide to move forward with <br />parking and landscape improvements here, a curbing <br />contractor can simply go from one site to the other rather <br />than to return in, say the spring, at what would likely be <br />a higher cost. ' <br /> <br />This illustration is an attempt to .continue the momentum <br />of certain parking improvements and landscaping <br />enhancements' that' are now occurring at or along Highway <br />'10. HRA funds for improvements here are available in the <br />1993 'budget, under ,the category of 'parking lot <br />improvements. Should the cost of both Jackson Square and <br />the former railroad property exceed what was set aside for <br />this item, additiona1 funds would be available under the <br />: category "Reserved for Future Projects". <br /> <br />Act~OriRequested <br /> <br />If the HRA Commissioners .are so inclined, they may wish to <br />move forward with parking and landscape enhancements on <br />this site too. As with Jackson Square, the Commissioners <br />should forward a recommendation to the City Council for <br />implementation. <br />
