Harrison Avenue Project and Final Adoption of Plastic Bag Ban Ordinance on Tuesday's City Council Agenda
Submitted by paula on Mon, 10/14/2013 - 7:54pm
• Add landscaping improvements, sidewalks, and streetlights on side streets between Riverside Drive and Highway 50.
Creating street improvements in the Harrison Avenue area sits atop the list of the City of South Lake Tahoe's Capital Improvement Project priorities. Better stormwater treatment, a bike path, lighting, safer pedestrian walkways and ADA improvements are coming to Harrison Avenue in 2014 and the city will vote Tuesday to ratify agreements between TRPA, the state and the city to move the project forward. The project is funded through several federal and local transportation fund sources.
City Council identified work in the Harrison Avenue area that could benefit recreation and commercial uses as follows:
• Design and reconstruct the Boat Trailer Parking lot to combine all boat trailer parking away from the Boat Launch parking area and accommodate a Class 1 Bike Trail;
• Add landscaping improvements, sidewalks, and streetlights on side streets between Riverside Drive and Highway 50.
Also on the city council agenda is the final adoption of the plastic bag ban voted on during the October 1 meeting, adopting an ordinance on the Tourist Core Area plan and budgetary appropriations.
The council meets at 9 am on Tuesday, October 15 at the City Council Chambers at the airport.
