The 1976-78 Capital Improvement :Program (Pages A-4 and A-5) provides for the
upgrading ird �r.'ening of Allen Avenue, by constructing a
collector grade roadway from I.i-,comb Street, east to St. Louis Avenue. This
project will provide suitable connection between Hemphill Street and St. Joseph
and John Peter Smith Hospitals.
Improvements
Allen Avenue in this area is currently 30-feet wide with asphalt pavement and
curb and gutter. Improvements will include construction of a 44-feet wide
collector grade roadway of concrete pavement, curb and driveway approaches.
Left-turn lanes will be provided at Hemphill Street. Also included will be
5-feet wide concrete sidewalks, constructed adjacent to the curb on both sides
of the street for the length of the project, to provide for pedestrian traffic
to the hospitals and to the bus route on Hemphill Street. Storm drainage faci-
lities include minor adjustments and appurtenances.

Assessments
Standard policy dictates that when an existing street, constructed to City
standards in the past, is improved and widened, residentially-zoned property is
assessed only for curb, gutter and driveway approaches where none presently
exist. Property zoned other than residential is assessed for non-existing curb,
gutter and driveway approaches plus pavement widening. in the case of Allen
Avenue, property zoned other than residential is being assessed for 5-feet
of pavement widening on each side of the street. Property zoned other than
residential containing an owner-occupied residence is being assessed one-half of
the rate for 5-feet of pavement widening.
Project Cost and Financing
Based on the low bid and standard policy, approximately $16,219 is proposed to
be assessed against abutting properties to be provided for by a bond fund trans-
fer from the Revolving Fund Unspecified. Cost to the City for street construc-
tion, including engineering, is approximately $273,001.84, plus $43,450 for
right--of-way acquisition. Bond fund transfers are required from the Arterial
Streets Unspecified Account No. 013-022-901-00 to supplement the City's construc-
tion costs and from Engineering Unspecified Account No. 013-095-901-00 for
engineering costs.
Recommendations
It is recommended that:
1. The following bond fund transfers be approved:
