Item
Initiate 1989 Sidewalk Program.
Background
The 1989 Capital Improvement Program includes $40,000 for construction of new
sidewalks along major streets. Under the present City policy, 50% of the
improvement is paid by the city-at-large from sales tax proceeds and the
remaining 50% is paid by the abutting property owner. Segments within street
intersections and handicapped ramps are paid by the city-at-large.
K.S.A. 12-6a01 provides authority and procedures whereby the City may initiate
public sidewalk improvements. The process provides a public hearing for
affected property owners, protest period and competitive bidding (see attached
schedule). Following completion of construction, the full amount may be paid
within 30 days or financed as a special assessment over 4 years.
DUring 1989, a survey identifi.ed 24.8 miles of arterial streets with missing
sidewalks. Major traveled streets with the greatest amount of missing sidewalks
are Broadway, Crawford and Ohio. Criteria have also been identified to guide the
identification of priority new sidewalk locations. Sidewalks should be directed~
to major streets segments which:
1. Have greater volumes of traffic.
2. Present a risk to pedestrian safety.
3. Possess sufficient right-of-way.
4. Contain pedestrian-oriented uses.
5. Complete a missing link.
Proposed Plan
Based on the 1988 -survey, the above listed criteria and citizen comments, the
following plan for 1989 is recommended (also see attached map).

Financing
Funding to complete the 1989 sidewalk plan would consist of the 1989 CIP for
sidewalks, special assessments to abutting properties and the 1989 CIP
contingency fund. The installation of handicapped ramps for sidewalks built in
1988 has been financed with 1989 sidewalk funds thereby leaving $22,000 available
for new sidewalks this year ($40,000 - $18,000). In addition, the handicapped
accessibility project approved on April 10, 1989, allocated $13,000 in 1989 CIP
contingency funds for sidewalk improvements.
Therefore, ~the following sources and amounts of funds have been identified to
complete the proposed plan:
