Crosswalk

[Council Communication]  [Attachments]

Council Communication
Title: Approval of Intergovernmental Agreement No. 21397 - Crosswalk
Maintenance Agreement between the City of Ashland and the Oregon
Department of Transportation
Dept: Public Works Department
Date: May 18, 2004
Submitted By: Paula Brown
Reviewed By: Paul Nolte
Approved By: Gino Grimaldi, City Administrator

Synopsis: The attached Intergovernmental Agreement No. 21397 is a Crosswalk Maintenance Agreement between the City of Ashland and the Oregon Department of Transportation. At the City's request, ODOT is installing continental crosswalk markings on the State highway system within the City limits. This agreement requires the City to maintain the crosswalks once installed by ODOT.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council approve Intergovernmental Agreement No. 21397 - Crosswalk Maintenance Agreement between the City of Ashland and the Oregon Department of Transportation.
Fiscal Impact: The City will be responsible for the maintenance costs of each newly crosswalk on the State system (N. Main, E. Main, Lithia Way) within the City's jurisdiction. It is estimated that the maintenance costs will not exceed $80 per crosswalk per year. The maintenance costs are anticipated to be less than $1600 annually, assuming that we will maintain about 20 crossings a year.
Background: ODOT has agreed to install the continental crosswalk markings (the wide "zebra" striped markings that the City uses downtown) at the City's request. These have a higher initial construction application cost; yet ODOT has accepted the Ashland standard for the road network within City limits. As such, ODOT has asked that the City maintain these crossings at the City's expense. City staff currently maintains other continental style crossings and this additional maintenance requirement is acceptable and not a burden to the crew's current requirement. The City has informally agreed to maintain previously installed crosswalk markings within the City limits and has similar formal agreements for the signal maintenance, electricity to signals and other maintenance items pertaining to the State's road network within City limits.
