COUNCIL COMMUNICATION <br />TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL <br />FROM: MALCOLM FLEMING, CITY MANAGER <br />DATE: JUNE 13, 2012 <br />SUBJECT: JOINT STUDY SESSION - CITY OF LOUISVILLE CITY COUNCIL AND <br />TOWN OF SUPERIOR BOARD TRUSTEES <br />ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: CITY MANAGER’S OFFICE <br />SUMMARY: <br />Louisville and Superior staff want to provide an update on the Diverging Diamond Interchange <br />(DDI) including current proposals on the possible aesthetic treatments, landscaping features, <br />funding options and key terms of a possible intergovernmental agreement (IGA) regarding <br />financing the project. The attached aerial of the DDI highlights some of the key project <br />elements staff wants to review. Staff is also interested in Council and Board members’ <br />reactions to the attached illustration of potential bridge enhancements and landscaping options. <br />Because staff is working to meet tight deadlines to have this project considered in the U.S. 36 <br />Phase 2 improvements and it is necessary to work quickly through design issues, staff may <br />present a slightly different version of these illustrations Wednesday evening. However, we <br />wanted to make the initial sketches available for review. As you review the materials, please <br />consider the structure work alongside the bridge, the corner monumentation, intersection <br />landscaping, sidewalk treatments and gateway identification. <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />1) DDI Aerial <br />2) Potential Bridge Enhancements <br />SUBJECT AGENDA ITEM <br />JOINT STUDY SESSION - CITY OF <br />LOUISVILLE CITY COUNCIL AND TOWN <br />OF SUPERIOR BOARD TRUSTEES <br />2 <br />
