MEMORANDUM
TO:

VIA:
Kenneth M. Griffin, P.E., Director of Engineering/Public Works
FROM:
Keith R. Marvin, P.E., Project Engineer
DATE:

RE:
Consider approval of a Resolution authorizing the City Engineer, in
conjunction with the Contractor, to close Kimbel Kourt to through
traffic from 100' north of Sandy Lake Road to Village Parkway, to
facilitate reconstruction of the roadway, from the effective date until
September 30, 2009; and authorizing the Mayor to sign and execute
the necessary documents.
The repaving of Kimbel Kourt is on the IMF plan for completion during this fiscal year.
The engineering department designed this project in-house. We anticipate opening bids
by the end of June, and expect to be before you in July for award of a construction
contract. We feel that the project can be completed quicker, more safely, and at less cost
if the contractor is allowed to close Kimbel Kourt to traffic from 100 feet north of Sandy
Lake to Village Parkway.
We request approval to close Kimbel Kourt from the time of contract award through
September 30, 2009. Approval of this resolution will allow staff to move forward with
the process of bidding the Kimbel Kourt project.
Staff will be available to answer any questions at the council meeting.
