SL Street Rehab, Program. Suppl. No. 015-N 2 October 5, 2009 ARRA funding can be utilized for the construction phase of roadway rehabilitation projects on streets eligible for federal funding. Five streets are to be repaired as part of the Annual Overlay/Rehabilitation 2008-09 Project, but only Aladdin Avenue and Washington Avenue are eligible for federal funding. In February 2009, the San Leandro Engineering & Transportation Department submitted an application for ARRA funding to repair Aladdin Avenue and Washington Avenue as part of the Annual Overlay/Rehabilitation 2008-09 Project. The project was deemed a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Categorical Exclusion by Caltrans and was allowed to move forward. The Authorization to Proceed with Construction (E-76) was issued in June 2, 2009 with a funding amount of $1,338,000. The segment of Aladdin Avenue included in this project runs between I-880 and Alvarado Street in an industrial section of San Leandro. The pavement is in extremely poor condition, so the method of repair will be a full street reconstruction utilizing cement-treated sub-base. On Washington Avenue, the top four inches of asphalt concrete between Caliente Drive and Anza Way will be milled off and replaced, since the street has not yet deteriorated to the point where it has to be fully reconstructed. Although there are three other streets associated with the Annual Overlay/Rehabilitation 2008-09 Project, they are not eligible for federal funding, so ARRA funds cannot be utilized for their repair. In addition to the work mentioned above, this project will also replace any outdated curb ramps along the project street segments per current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. Work will also include the repair of damaged sidewalk, curb, and gutter adjacent to the project areas. Construction is expected to be completed in December 2009. Upon the City Council authorizing the City Manager to execute Program Supplement Agreement No. 015-N to Administering Agency-State Agreement No. 04-5041R, the Local Assistance staff will proceed to make funds available for the construction phase of the project. Current City Council Policy Regular maintenance of City streets to ensure safe and efficient operation. Previous City Council Action(s) On March 2, 2009, by Resolution No. 2009-030, the City Council authorized the filing of an application for ARRA 2009 funding and assuring completion of the project.
