Owasso Public Works Authority April 18, 2000 ITEM 5: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A DESIGN CONCEPT AND AUTHORIZATION TO BID FOR 96TH STREET NORTH IMPROVEMENTS. Mr Carr presented the item. He said that development of the Owasso Market at E 96th St N and U.S. Highway 169 necessitates roadway infrastructure improvements. A traffic study has been completed and serves as the basis for roadway improvements. Improvements have been designed from the northbound ramp at U.S. Highway 169 to a point approximately 450 west of N 119th East Ave. The Oklahoma Department of Transportation has reviewed the design and has indicated the minimum portion of the project that needs to be completed prior to opening Owasso Market. Additional design improvements will be needed on E 96th St N within the next five years. Total minimum roadway improvements are estimated to cost $290,160 ($213,204 for roadway construction and $76,956 for a traffic signal at Highway 169 northbound ramp). OPWA has agreed to contribute a total of $225,000 toward the improvements. The developer (SEAYCO) has agreed to contribute the cost of engineering design of the roadway and the traffic signal design. RCB Center will contribute $30,000 to construct a roadway west of the Highway 169 ramp. Staff is looking to SEAYCO to contribute any additional funds toward this portion of the construction. In order to eliminate future construction disruption, additional lanes have been included for construction on both the north and south sides of E 96th St N and a traffic signal at N 121 st East Ave, at a cost of $186,155. RCB Bank has agreed to contribute funds toward the traffic signal using a payback agreement. After the project has been bid, staff will be better able to determine how much additional funding will be needed. Mr Williams moved, seconded by Dr Bode, to approve the design concept and authorize the bidding for 96t" St N improvements. AYE: Bode, Williams, Voss, Barnhouse NAY: None Motion carried 4-0.
