' Cg41Fp0.�`P City Council Staff Report
Date: October 1, 2014 UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Subject: DISCUSSION AND DIRECTION TO STAFF CONCERNING INDIAN
CANYON DRIVE TWO WAY OPERATION
From: David H. Ready, City Manager
Initiated by: Public Works and Engineering Department
SUMMARY
Discuss and provide direction to staff regarding the conceptual plan changing Indian
Canyon Drive from one way to two way operation per direction of the Council
Subcommittee.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Provide direction to staff concerning the conceptual plan and consider requesting
staff to obtain a proposal for construction drawings to change all of Indian from
one way to two way.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Last year City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with Albert Grover
& Associates to prepare a feasibility study for converting Indian Canyon Drive to two
way operation. The study was completed and presented to City Council on December 4,
2013. Council received and filed the report, appointed a Council Subcommittee of Rick
Hutcheson and Ginny Foat for future guidance and recommendations concerning the
two way conversion, and directed copies of the study be sent to Main Street and the
Chamber of Commerce.
In April 2014, the subcommittee met with staff and stakeholders and recommended the
City proceed with a revised alternative 3 which consists of parking on the east side of
Indian Canyon Drive, two northbound lanes, a two way left turn lane, one southbound
lane and a class II bike lane on the west side of the street. The study found that
reducing the number of northbound lanes from 4 to 2 would result in lower speeds and
more congestion but the level of service would still remain within CVAG and RCTC
minimum requirements.

Indian Canyon Drive Two Way Operation (CP 13-13)
On September 18, 2014 the subcommittee met again. At that meeting, Margret Park of
the ACBCI planning staff reported the Tribe would not object to converting Indian
Canyon Drive to two-way operation. The subcommittee confirmed the choice of the two-
way layout and expressed an interest in including some landscaping. The subcommittee
directed staff to bring the chosen layout of the two-way conversion to the full Council for
further direction.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Estimated cost for the conversion is $1.4 — 1.7 million plus an additional sum depending
on the scope of landscaping desired.
