problem. Mr. Miller presented two alternatives
that could help mitigate the problem.
Alternate 1 would involve constructing a flume
and drainage pipe inside an existing easement
between Lots 16 & 17 (located directly across
the street from 8441 Glenann), and extending a
42" storm drain, as well as constructing
additional inlets on Glenann Drive, Sherri Lane,
and Randy Drive. The total cost for Alternate 1
is $157,000
Alternate 2 involves constructing a flume and
drainage pipe inside the existing drainage
easement between Lots 16 & 17, but only
construct inlets on Glenann Drive and Sherri
Lane. Total cost for Alternate 2 is $71,000.
Liability concerns were discussed with the
Attorney for the City should the proposed
improvements cause flooding to the property
located to the east (8437 Glenann).
Councilman Frank Metts made the motion that
Alternate 2 be pursued, with direction for staff to
contact the property owners at 8437 and 8441
Glenann Drive and request they sign a "hold
harmless" agreement, inform the property owners
of Lots 16 and 17 of the proposed drainage
improvements, survey site in more detail, revise
cost estimate, and develop budget. Upon
completion of the detailed study, the budget
should be presented to Council for consideration.
Mayor Pro T em Don Phifer seconded the motion.
Motion carried.
Traffic Signal on Mike Curtis, CIP Coordinator, explained to the Greg Dickens
Holiday Lane at Committee that this is the second time a request
Trinidad Drive for a signal light on Holiday Lane at Trinidad
Drive has been considered by the CIP
Committee. The first request was at the April 8,
1997 meeting, where the Committee directed
staff to determine if a light was warranted and
what the cost would be. Staff presented the cost
estimates and information showing that a light
was warranted to the Committee at the 10/10/97
CIP Meeting. The committee at that time had
some concerns regarding the close proximity to
the other signal lights on Holidav Lane, and the

request was denied.
A citizen living on Acapulco Drive requested the
Committee reconsider installation of the light due
to the proposed planned development of 143
single family lots along the east side of Holiday
Lane. Staff related that the developer has
agreed to pay 10% of the cost for the installation
of a signal light at this location as part of the
zoning change which was previously approved.
Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Don Phifer
and seconded by Councilman Frank Metts that
the Committee acknowledged the signal light
was warranted at this location. Action was tabled
until the plat for the planned development goes
before Council for approval when installation of
the light would then become a condition for
approval of the plat. Motion carried.
City Overlay Greg Dickens, Public Works Director, and Jimmy No Action
Program - Cates, Public Works Superintendent, reviewed Required
Selection Process with the Committee and answered questions
regarding the process they use in determining
the streets selected to be on the Overlay
Program. It was the Committee's
recommendation that Staff continue to use this
procedure.
1998/99 City Staff presented to the Committee the proposed Greg
Overlay Program 1998/99 Overlay Program, consisting of 11 Dickens/Jimmy
streets. Estimated cost for the proposed Cates
program is $565,856. The total approved budget
is $577,450.
The Committee approved the list of 11 streets,
but requested Staff also investigate a portion of
Jerri Jo Drive, that is in severe need of repair.
Staff should review Jerri Jo Drive, develop a cost
estimate, and if the funding allows, add to the
1998/99 Overlay Program. When this analysis is
complete, the 1998/99 Overlay Program should
be presented to Council for approval.
