Body
Item Summary:
McGee Partners, Inc. will prepare construction plans, right-of-way plans, and bid documents for the Sun Valley Phase I project. The project will connect the eastern end of Sun Valley Drive with the northern end of Warsaw Road, and will provide one travel lane in each direction, bicycle lanes, a sidewalk, a multi-use trail, and a center two-way-left-turn lane in front of the businesses along Sun Valley Drive. Originally the plan was to utilize in house staff to complete the design; however, accelaration of this project is a priority and an outside consultant can complete the design of the project six to eight months earlier, or in about a year from now.
