Committee approves up to $875,000 for right-of-way acquisition on Green Street Mobility project
Summary
Roswell staff described the Green Street Mobility project (multiuse trail, one-way conversion, buried utilities) and the committee unanimously approved blanket authorization to acquire rights-of-way and options for 16 parcels up to $875,000.
The Roswell committee approved Jan. 27 a not-to-exceed $875,000 authorization for right-of-way acquisition services and acceptance of right-of-way options for phase one of the Green Street Mobility project.
"This project will construct an 8 to 10 foot multi use trail along Green Street from State Route 9 to Cherry Way," said Mr. Nicholas during the presentation, describing plans to convert Green Street to one-way southbound, convert Plum Tree Street to a pedestrian path and place aerial utilities underground. Staff said 16 parcels will be impacted and the $875,000 figure is based on appraisal estimates plus contingency.
Committee members had no questions and the motion to approve the blanket right-of-way acquisition authorization (not to exceed $875,000) passed unanimously. Staff said funding is available in the project account and that any amount above the not-to-exceed figure would be returned to council for action.
Next steps: staff will proceed with appraisal and acquisition outreach for the affected parcels and will return to council if additional funding is needed.
