Mayor Chris APPROVED BY COUNCIL ORFALP.O.-REALCharaetor• REAL CommunNy JUN 18 2019 TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Teresa Willson Information Technology Director SUBJECT: Resolution 2019 -13, Capital Improvements Project Determination DATE: June 14, 2019 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The purpose of this memorandum is to recommend amending the list of projects eligible for the Capital Improvement Fund to include 5k Heart Healthy Trail and the Funtastic Island renovations and Splash Pad. BACKGROUND: The Capital Improvements Committee conducted a public meeting on April 23, 2019, to consider a proposed amendment to the list of eligible Capital Improvement Fund projects. As per the resolution defined procedures, the City Council conducts a public hearing to receive and consider citizen input relevant to the recommendation made by the Capital Improvements Committee. Notice of the public hearing must be made no less than five days prior to the public hearing. At the conclusion of the public hearing, which was held May 21, 2019, the City Council must continue the matter for at least two weeks before taking any action to amend the listing of projects. Any action taken by the City Council to amend the current list of projects must be made by adopting a resolution. On September 5, 2017, the Festival Park was added to the Capital Improvement project list, per resolution 2017 -15. It was anticipated at that time that the Festival Park would be funded partially from excess Vision 2025 funds, and the remainder funded from the Capital Improvement Fund. The City had an opportunity to utilize more excess Vision 2025 funds for the Festival Park project than anticipated by consolidating funding from the 5K Heart Healthy Trail and Feature Splash Pad and moving it to the Festival Park project. The funding change was made because the 5K trail and splash pad were not ready to proceed at the time, and the Festival Park was under construction. As a result, the Festival Park utilized just over $405,000 of Capital Improvement funding, instead of an estimate of approximately $2,000,000. PROJECT INFORMATION: The 5K Heart Healthy trail and Feature Splash Pad are projects originally proposed for excess Vision 2025 funds, In addition to these projects, staff has identified the renovation of the Funtastic Island park, originally constructed in 2005, as an additional project to be included with the proposed splash pad as a joint project in the current location of the Funtastic Island park. Age combined with significant use has taken a toll on the Funtastic Island park. This park was originally a community -built project and was a much needed addition to the northern portion of the city. However, the playground equipment has aged and is in need of a complete overhaul. The existing pieces are obsolete and finding parts to make repairs has become increasingly difficult. The 5K Heart Healthy trail, Funtastic Island renovations and Funtastic Splash Pad have been recommended by the Capital Improvement Committee to utilize the amount of funds that would have been allocated from the Capital Improvement Fund for the Festival Park. The amount for these projects is anticipated to be just under $1,500,000. CURRENT ELIGIBLE PROJECTS: Adopted March 5, 2019, Resolution 2019 -06 designated the following list of projects as eligible for funding from the Capital Improvements Fund: • East 76th Street North Widening Project (Hwy 169 to North 129th East Avenue) • East 76th Street North and Main Street Intersection Improvements • Garnett Road Widening Project (East 961h Street North to East 106th Street North) • Garnett Road Widening (East 1061h Street North to East 1 16th Street North) • East 96th Street North and North 1451h East Avenue Intersection Improvements • East 1061h Street North and North 129th East Avenue Intersection Improvements • East 106th Street North and North 1451h East Avenue Intersection Improvements • East 1 16th Street North and North 129th East Avenue Intersection Improvements • East 116th Street North and North 140th East Avenue Intersection Traffic Signal Improvements • Annual Street Rehabilitation Program • Highway 169 East and West Service Roads (East 66th Street North to East 126th Street North) • Central Park / Lakeridge Subdivision Stormwater Improvements • Rayola Park and Elm Creek Tributary 5A Stormwater Improvements • South Sports Park Regional Detention Pond Project • Sports Park • Elm Creek Park Improvements • Main Police Station / City Hall • Vehicle Maintenance Facility • Fire Station Number 4 with Administration and Training Center • Public Safety Vehicles • Festival Park • Fiber Installation Owasso Police Department to Public Works • Land purchase at 11301 North Mingo Road and 10000 East 116th Street North RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of Resolution 2019 -13, amending the list of capital improvement projects eligible for funding from the Capital Improvements Fund to include the 5K Heart Healthy Trail and Funtastic Island renovations and Funtastic Splash Pad.
