TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Owasso FROM: Teresa Willson Information Technology Director SUBJECT: Capital Improvements Project Determination Resolution 2016 -23 DATE: December 2, 2016 WARN tIIlNI4 1111uLrMA: F couIvC1L 1kc 2016 Staff is presenting a resolution regarding an amendment to the Capital Improvement project list to include E 106 St N and N 129 E Ave intersection improvements. This is the final step in the process to request amending the list of projects eligible for funding through the Capital Improvement Fund. BACKGROUND: In 1983, the citizens of Owasso passed a one -cent sales tax increase. In 1988, the voters restricted the use of that sales tax to fund capital projects, often referred to as the third penny of sales tax. Revenue from this sales tax has been used to fund a variety of capital projects, changing with the needs resulting from the growth of Owasso. The third penny sales tax has been instrumental in providing the funds necessary to develop or update much of the City's infrastructure. In addition to infrastructure, other capital improvement needs have been addressed, such as facility improvements, and large scale equipment upgrades. In 2003, the third penny was made permanent by a vote of the citizens of Owasso, and continues to be the major source of funding to provide for the City's capital needs. Adopted by the City Council, Resolution 2003 -14 defines the process to amend the Priority Determination of projects eligible to receive funding from the Capital Improvements Fund, also known as the permanent third -penny sales tax. Simply stated, this process amends the current list of Capital Improvement projects. The Capital Improvements Committee conducted a public meeting on October 25, 2016, and approved to recommend E 106 St N and N 129 E Ave intersection improvements be added to the list of projects eligible for funding by the third -penny sales tax. In accordance with Resolution 2003 -14, the City Council conducted a public hearing on this matter, November 15, 2016. E 106 St N and N 129 E AVE INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS: This intersection is located near Rejoice Schools and is a heavily trafficked area that conveys approximately 6,350 vehicles per day traveling east /westbound and 5,800 vehicles per day traveling north /southbound. The Transportation Master Plan recommends this roadway be improved by FY 2020. It is the intent of staff to submit this project to INCOG in January 2017, for future Surface Transportation funding. If funded, the federal government will participate with 80% of construction funding. The City will be responsible for 20% of the construction and through an agreement with Tulsa County will split the costs associated with the design, utility relocation, right -of -way acquisition, and construction. The City Council conducted a public hearing on November 15, 2016, in accordance with Resolution 2003 -14, to receive and consider citizen input relevant to the recommendation made by the Capital Improvements Committee. Any action taken by the City Council to amend the current list of projects must be made by adopting a resolution. CURRENT PROJECT PRIORITIES: Adopted September 20, 2016, Resolution 2016 -16 designated the following list of projects as eligible for funding from the Capital Improvements Fund: • E 76 St N Widening Project (Hwy 169 to N 129 E Avenue) • E 76 St N and Main St Intersection Improvements • E 86 St N Widening Project (Main to Memorial) • E 106 St N and N Garnett Road Intersection Improvements • Garnett Road Widening Project (E 96 St N to E 106 St N) • Garnett Road Widening (E 106 St N to E 116 St N) • E 96 St N and N 145 E Ave Intersection Improvements • E 106 St N and N 145 E Ave Intersection Improvements • E 116 St N and N 129 E Ave Intersection Improvements • E 116 St N and N 140 E Avenue Intersection Traffic Signal Improvements • Annual Street Rehabilitation Program • Highway 169 East and West Service Roads (E 66 St N to E 126 St N) • Brookfield Crossing Subdivision Stormwater Improvements • Central Park /Lakeridge Subdivision Stormwater Improvements • Rayola Park and Elm Creek Tributary 5A Stormwater Improvements • South Sports Park Regional Detention Pond Project • Garrett Creek /Morrow Place Sewer Assessment Area Sanitary Sewer Improvements • Sports park • Elm Creek Park Improvements • Main Police Station /City Hall • Vehicle Maintenance Facility • Radio System Upgrade Fire Station Number 4 with Administration and Training Center RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of Resolution 2016 -23 amending the Capital Improvement Project list to include E 106 St N and N 129 E Ave intersection improvements.
