City Council <br />Meeting Minutes <br />October 15, 2013 <br />Page 3 of 23 <br />Planning Director Russ reported there are a number of changes on the corridor and a <br />wide scope of work will be done by the contractor Ames Granite. Two changes involve <br />the bicycle trails; 1) The proposed underpass at Avista Hospital to connect to the <br />cemetery will be redesigned as an overpass at Avista Hospital. 2) Because of the <br />Diverging Diamond Interchange, the bicycle trail at the McCaslin intersection will be <br />under McCaslin. He stated there will be a very big improvement to the McCaslin <br />Corridor. <br />CITY MANAGER'S REPORT <br />City Manager Fleming reported there is also construction on the McCaslin and <br />Washington intersection as an underpass to Davidson Mesa is being constructed. The <br />parking lots at Harper Lake and Davidson Mesa are also under reconstruction. He <br />requested the public's patience while this underpass is being constructed and noted <br />there cannot be any pedestrian access through the construction area for safety reasons. <br />The project is ahead of schedule and parking access on the Davidson Mesa side is <br />proposed to be completed by Christmas. <br />REGULAR BUSINESS <br />LIFE IN LOUISVILLE ANNUAL PHOTO CONTEST AWARDS <br />Mayor Muckle requested a staff presentation. <br />Public Relations Manager Muth reported the City received a total of 94 entries from 9 <br />contestants for the 2013 Life in Louisville photo contest.
