City Council <br />Meeting Minutes <br />June 4 2019 <br />Page 5 of 16 <br />Director Kowar reviewed the options. <br />1 Approve the HAWK Crossing at Powerline Trail and Dillon Road as proposed This <br />request would be followed with a budget amendment in the amount of $197,340 49 <br />to cover the increase in costs and still allow staff to move forward with other <br />planned trail connection improvements at the Coyote Run Open Space. <br />2 Approve HAWK crossing with available funds but provide direction to staff to <br />remove budget amendment of $197,340 49 and postpone Coyote Run Open <br />Space trail connection improvements. <br />3 Deny HAWK Crossing and direct staff to use available funds for the Coyote Run <br />Open Space trail connection improvements. <br />4 Deny HAWK Crossing and direct staff to suspend trail connection upgrades until <br />the completion of the Transportation Master Plan <br />He added this project has been bid and is ready to go if approved <br />Councilmember Stolzmann asked if the sidewalk on Washington for Coyote Run can be <br />done this year and within budget. Director Mosley stated it is ready but staff needs to wait <br />for the bank stabilization in the area to be completed <br />Public Comments — None <br />Mayor Muckle stated he supports the budget amendment to get them both done this year <br />Councilmember Maloney stated the costs have gone up significantly and we know our <br />sales tax is declining He stated he is reticent to approve this without the full budget <br />discussion when we know what our long term perspective is. <br />Councilmember Loo stated like the underpass, this is another amenity for which we might <br />have to seek voter approval for new funding <br />Councilmember Stolzmann stated perhaps we can space out the two projects and do <br />Coyote Run next year and use 2020 funds for that. The Transportation Master Plan <br />(TMP) recommends underpasses on Dillon to allow for better traffic flow and that might <br />affect the decision <br />Councilmember Loo asked if OSAB supports these projects. Director Mosley stated both <br />projects are part of the trails master plan and are requested by residents. He added there <br />is an underpass nearby to this crossing so we may not need another one here <br />Councilmember Loo would like some prioritization on all of these projects; it's hard to <br />choose without empirical data on these intersections. She would like more information on <br />what is really essential <br />
