Council discusses CCMG sidewalk upgrades, drainage scope and ADA requirements
Summary
Council and staff debated whether CCMG-funded sidewalk replacements must meet 48-inch ADA widths and how that would affect parking; staff will solicit engineer estimates and return with a clarified scope before the council commits to using CCMG funds.
Staff (Speaker 7) updated the council on CCMG planning and warned that any new sidewalks installed with outside funds would need to meet ADA standards, likely requiring a 48-inch width on both sides and reducing on-street parking. "If we do replace them, though, they will need to be ADA compliant, which would mean they need to be widened to 48 inches on both sides of the street," staff said.
Council members asked for clarification on whether the town could keep the existing footprint if it used its own funds and asked staff to request written engineer estimates about including drainage repairs. The administrator agreed to get clarified scopes and cost estimates and report back at the next meeting.
