BACKGROUND The Sunset Islands I & II Homeowner's Association has requested that an additional third lane be constructed at the 29th Street entrance. Their original request that the utility pole behind the existing guardhouse be removed was required prior to the construction of the third lane. The utility pole and associated utility relocations have now been completed. On November 6, 2000, the General Obligations Bonds Oversight Committee approved the allocation of $35,000 for the construction of the proposed third lane. Since that time, the Homeowner's Association has requested that a Kiosk (guardhouse) be provided within the right of way at the center of the road and that major landscaping improvements be included in the project. City staff has completed the design of the proposed project, which includes roadway, landscaping, and irrigation improvements. Provisions for the proposed kiosk include ADA accessibility features, reinforced concrete pad, and required utility relocations (electrical and telephone). Construction is scheduled to begin in June, 2001 at an estimated construction cost of$85,000.
