Regular Agenda Mayor Hashmi asked if items 29 through 34 could be moved up on the Agenda, because one of the Council Members had to leave a little early. A Motion to move items 29 through 34 forward was made by Council Member McCarthy and seconded by Council Member Frierson. Motion carried, 7 ayes — 0 nays. 29. Deliberate and provide direction to City Staff on the possible expansion of the remaining portion of a two lane road on South Collegiate Drive between Clarksville Street and Jefferson Road and a second entry into the Police and Court Building from S. Collegiate Drive. Shawn Napier said the City Council had several options as to how to use the remaining bond money issued for South Collegiate Drive: 1) deposit the remaining bond money in an interest & sinking fund to make principal payments; 2) widen the remaining portion of two lane roadway to three lanes; 3) add a second entrance into the Police and Court Building; 4) add a parking lot for the Trail de Paris; 5) overlay the remaining five lane section of South Collegiate with a mill and asphalt overlay, plant mix seal or slurry seal. The type of overlay will depend on an assessment of the overall roadway condition; 5) add a turn lane into the north entrance to the soccer fields; and 6) construct sidewalks from the Sports Complex/Trail head to the High School along South Collegiate. Mayor Hashmi inquired if the proposal was that all of the items be done or a portion. Mr. Napier said he would like to bid all of it, but in a prioritized list.
