Second Reading Ordinances

1. Council Bill/Special Ordinance 4005-2019

A Special Ordinance closing certain streets more particularly described herein to vehicular traffic; and authorizing the use of public right-of-way to Lunda Construction Co. and its representatives in conjunction with certain I-74 bridge construction.

Explanation: Lunda Construction Co. has been granted the use of the green space between 54th Street and 55th Street, and Old River Drive and 1st Avenue for use as an arch deck laydown yard. This will allow the contractor to assemble the arch sections on land in a more efficient operation than could be accomplished out in the channel. This has the potential to save several weeks to the overall construction schedule. Lunda has agreed to restore the site to its pre-construction condition including repairing the parking lot and street pavement, if necessary. Per Council’s direction at the January 29, 2019 meeting, approval of this ordinance is contingent on the City’s approval of a separate agreement with Lunda for use of Old River Drive as well as for some Park property and City-owned property that will be forthcoming.

First Reading Ordinances

7. Council Bill/Special Ordinance 4006-2019

A Special Ordinance granting a temporary modification to Section 28- 3200(a) and Section 35-4218 of the Moline Code of Ordinances to delay the installation of sidewalks for property located at 4231 7th Avenue.

Explanation: Matt S. Matthews is building a new single family home at 4231 7th Avenue. He has applied for a temporary modification to the requirement to install a public sidewalk, citing topographic issues, the drainage ditch along the road, and lack of sidewalks in the neighborhood as reasons to approve a variance. Staff acknowledges that the Code of Ordinances requires two frontages of sidewalk to be installed with this development, 140’ of sidewalk along 7th Avenue and 115’ along 43rd Street. In review of the application, staff believes that the sidewalk can be installed regardless of the topography and drainage ditch. This section of road is not shown on the 5-year CIP and this is not a red water location, so the road is not scheduled to be reconstructed in the near future. Staff also identifies that there is an existing sidewalk on the opposite corner of the intersection of 43rd Street and 7th Avenue. Additional documentation attached.
