CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL MEETING 14 NOVEMBER 2013 The City Council of South Burlington held a special meeting on Thursday, 14 November 2013 at 7:00 p.m. in the Conference Room, City Office Building, 575 Dorset Street. Members Present: P. Mackenzie, Chair; P. Nowak, ViceChair; C. Shaw, H. Riehle, R. Greco Also Present: K. Dorn, City Manager; T. Hubbard, Deputy City Manager Meeting was called to order by Chair Mackenzie at 7:02 p.m. 1. Discuss Improvements to Market Street: City Manager, Kevin Dorn updated Council on recent discussions from members of the business community as well as the South Burlington School District on potential improvements to Market Street. Public Works Director, Justin Rabidoux, submitted a cost estimate to Mr. Dorn of $65,000 to pave the portion of Market Street from where the pavement currently ends west of Marcotte School to the junction of Hinesburg Road. Several members of the business community are willing to contribute close to $20,000 toward the project. The City money to pay for the project could be available from the savings of 2013-2014 paving budget and could be done by Whitcomb if completed within the next week before the plant shutdown for the winter season. This improvement would open up the ability for a greater volume of traffic, especially during the Holidays, and also result in a savings for grading and plowing. The work would provide a top-coat to the gravel surface that could last 3-4 years. Additional discussion focused on the need for crosswalks and bike lanes when striping is possible. Motion was made by Ms. Nowak to have the City Manager draft a contract for the work and execute the agreement to have the project completed. Seconded by Ms. Riehle. Motion passed unanimously. As there was no further business to come before the Council, Ms. Riehle moved to adjourn, Ms. Nowak seconded. Motion passed unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at 7:25 p.m. Clerk Published by ClerkBase ©2019 by Clerkbase. No Claim to Original Government Works.
