11. Council Bill/Special Ordinance 4027-2017

A Special Ordinance granting a permanent waiver and payment in-lieu of construction of sidewalks pursuant to Section 35-2211 of the Moline Code of Ordinances for the property located at 3710 39th Avenue Drive.

Explanation: Eric Abeln, representing Panda Express, has applied for a permanent waiver and payment of $23,000 in lieu of constructing sidewalks at 3710 39th Avenue Drive. Staff has reviewed and supports a permanent waiver for the 40th Avenue frontage, because the overpass bridge was not designed nor constructed for pedestrians on that side, will never include a sidewalk, and pedestrians cannot safely cross 40th Avenue at this location to access the multi-use trail. However, staff recommends a sidewalk be installed along 39th Avenue Drive to connect to the Tires Plus property. Additionally, the Engineering Department suggests there would be a benefit to extending a sidewalk northward along the private access road (shared driveway) to connect to 7-Eleven. Staff is not aware of any prior sidewalk variances at this location. Any permanent waiver granted and payment to the City would be based on the City Engineer's estimated cost of construction and may vary from the amount listed by the applicant. The staff recommendation is to partially approve the request for permanent waiver and payment for the 40th Avenue frontage. Additional documentation attached.

Fiscal Impact: $8,500 deposited into Sidewalk Program Revenue in Capital Improvement Fund

12. Council Bill/Special Ordinance 4028-2017

A Special Ordinance granting a temporary modification to delay installation of a public sidewalk pursuant to Section 35-2211 of the Moline Code of Ordinances for the property located at 3445 19th Avenue.

Explanation: Jim and Becky Hasselbusch recently constructed a home on a vacant lot at 3445 19th Avenue and have applied for a temporary modification to delay installation of a public sidewalk due to lack of adjoining sidewalks. 19th Avenue is not scheduled for reconstruction in the next five years, has curb and gutter, no ditches or topographic restraints, and sufficient right-of-way for a sidewalk. The nearest existing sidewalk is three lots to the east at the 35th Street intersection with 19th Avenue. Staff found no prior sidewalk variances granted for this area. Additional documentation attached.
