THE CITY OF _ 11, CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT PLEASANTON¢ June 20, 2017 Community Development Planning Division TITLE: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A PILOT PARKLET AND BICYCLE CORRAL PROJECT SUMMARY Through the Downtown Specific Plan Update process to-date and with adoption of the Downtown Parking Strategy and Implementation Plan, there has been community and City Council interest in expanding outdoor seating and dining, as well as bicycle parking throughout the Downtown. In response, staff recommends installing one temporary on- street parklet (a public outdoor seating area in space currently used for vehicle parking) and one bicycle corral at the intersection of West Angela and Main streets to ascertain the viability of these public amenities. The pilot project will last through approximately Summer 2018 at which time the Council can evaluate the desirability of parklets and bike corrals as amenities for the Downtown. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action: 1. Adopt a resolution authorizing the installation of one parklet and one bicycle corral for public use on West Angela Street. 2. Authorize the transfer of $26,750 from the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Reserve, CIP No. 06418 to the Pilot Parklet project, CIP No. 17464 to fund the project. FINANCIAL STATEMENT The anticipated cost is approximately $31,850, including both the parklet and bicycle parking. Staff recommends funds from the CIP Reserve fund, CIP No. 06418, be transferred into a new CIP project, Pilot Parklet, CIP No. 17464, to fund and track expenditures. Measure B Bicycle and Pedestrian dollars ($5,100) from the Bicycle and Pedestrian Related Improvements project, CIP No. 16543, will provide the funding for the bicycle corral.
