6.1. D. - Page 2 <br /> anticipated to be completed in 2014, will increase the safety, visibility, and accessibility <br /> of Hoover School and will also beautify and enhance safety and walk-ability for <br /> neighborhood residents. Redwood City 2020 is a project partner and will receive <br /> approximately $12,500 of the grant to educate, encourage, and evaluate safe route to <br /> school activities at Hoover School. <br /> The Agency's Study and Redwood City 2020's involvement to increase walking and <br /> bicycling at Hoover School provided a competitive application that resulted in the award <br /> of the grant from Caltrans Safe Route to School for Charter Street improvements. As <br /> programs become available, staff will seek grant funding to implement the other <br /> improvements identified in the Study. <br /> Staff will prepare the Caltrans Federal Aid request for authorization documents to <br /> initiate the preliminary engineering for the Charter Street improvements. This request is <br /> planned for submittal after the Metropolitan Transportation Commission amends the <br /> Federal Statewide Transportation Program (FSTIP), which is anticipated in January <br /> 2012. In addition, staff will prepare a mid-year budget adjustment in FY 11/12 as <br /> required for Council to authorize the expenditure of the grant. <br /> Staff has met with Caltrans to provide conceptual design options and traffic operations <br /> impacts and receive preliminary input associated with installing crosswalks at the <br /> intersection of Woodside and Middlefield Road. A Caltrans encroachment application <br /> for crosswalks at this intersection will be submitted summer/fall 2012. <br /> Staff continues to maintain the existing relationships in the community and will provide <br /> an update to the residents and stakeholders about the Charter Street improvements and <br /> the proposed Woodside Road crosswalks at the Middlefield Road intersection. <br /> ALTERNATIVES <br /> This matter is an information update only; therefore, no alternatives are presented. <br /> FISCAL IMPACT <br /> The grant will cover the cost of the improvements, and no matching funds are required. <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW <br /> Not a project. <br /> „ <br /> �{F r��.� ��i� �n.� <br /> � , <br /> ';� i <br /> JEANNIE YOUNG <br /> REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT MANAGER <br />
