IV, PROPOSED CONDUIT nriiiLwi MIDDLEFIELD ROAD BRIDGE AND PLAZA CULVERT. City Attorney Currie stated that unless two conditions are accepted, two of the property owners are unwilling to proceed. These conditions are (1) removed the guard rail and (2) not have the hatch in the sidewalk. From the City's standpoint, the City Attorney stated that they should not consider these conditions. Mr. Currie stated that the estimated cost of $9,730 had been quoted which would figure out to approx- imately $8.00 per square foot. The property owners are not anxious to proceed. City Engineer Jain stated that if the concrete guard rail is removed it will be necessary to reconstruct approximately 101 of the Culvert between the curb and the property line as the concrete guard rail is the pier which supports the sidewalk and culvert in this area. There is some question whether the hatch in the top of the culvert can be considered in the paved area beyond the curb to lack of head roam for this structure. It is necessary to extend the double barrel culvert all the way to the h -itch in order for the hatch to be used for removal of debris deposited against the center wall of the double barrel structure.
