Plan Context
The document describes the project as a 0.4-mile segment of Grand Avenue between Escondido Boulevard and Juniper Street.
The document says the Vision Plan was formed through several visioning meetings with downtown stakeholders, a community survey, and two public workshops.
It also says the City Council adopted the Vision Plan on February 14, 2018, and approved the grant agreement to complete environmental clearance and Phase I on February 13, 2019.
Design And Phasing
The document says the project includes mini-roundabouts at Maple Street, Broadway, and Kalmia Street.
It says the Historic Preservation Commission, Downtown Business Association, and Public Art Commission provided recommendations on aesthetic components of the design.
The document says Phase I included wider sidewalks on one side between Maple Street and Broadway, lighting between Maple Street and Kalmia Street, median removal along those two blocks, and restriping between Escondido Boulevard and Juniper Street.
The document also describes future phases as including wider sidewalks on both sides of the street, completion of three proposed mini-roundabouts, and ornamental and festoon lighting on remaining blocks. This is recorded here as plan context from the PDF, not as a current status statement.
