`.- From previous discussions, and with the time between now and the Contract's <br />beginning of construction right after Labor Day, we recall some comments about <br />wanting to maybe look at including some of the recommended improvements <br />from the study phase — e.g. decorative street lights. <br />After awarding the project, if the City Council wants us to look into this or other <br />items that were not part of the original scope of work, we can. <br />We would caution the Council though, that taking pieces out of the previous <br />overall study concept should be done very carefully, both from a cost perspective <br />as well as from an aesthetic perspective. Decorative street lights might be a <br />popular streetscape element, but if it is not part of and included within an overall <br />visual approach, they may look out of place. Also, without re-doing the width of <br />the sidewalks on the east side (and then probably the curb and gutter), street <br />light poles will probably not fit in appropriately along this side. Having them along <br />the west side would physically work, but they will not be able to cast appropriate <br />light all the way over to the east side. Also, depending on how many would be <br />needed, the City could easily spend over $100,000. <br />We will be available at the Council meeting Tuesday night to discuss as much of <br />this as the Council would like. <br />� <br />� <br />
