14 ADVANCED TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (ATMS) Locations: City Wide Project Background The Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) was placed into operation in 2009 with overall transportation improvement for vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles on the Greenback & Sunrise corridors. This system allows for operations not available from the 25 year old system that was replaced. The next phase is the addition of the Auburn corridor from Van Maren to Old Auburn/Sylvan. This addition allows monitoring and coordination of existing traffic signals. Project Objectives Upgrade operations of traffic signals to include updated hardware (controllers, cabinets, fiber equipment) capable of operating on ATMS. This will provide traffic signal synchronization capabilities and increased safety for automobiles, pedestrians and bicycles as well as improved public transportation within the City. Continue expansion of the management system to improve operations, safety, air quality and multi-modal transportation capacity. Existing Situations Upgraded signals and signal modifications are required to meet Federal and State functional guidelines; the existing traffic signal control equipment does not provide operations that meet these guidelines. Project Justification Trouble calls are on the rise, with repeat failures due to aging electronics. New intersections cannot operate within Federal and State requirements with the old controller system. Fiscal Implications Funding is provided by Measure A Capital Traffic Control and Safety - Funds. 5-Year Funding Allocated Funding 2018/ / / / /2023 Revenue Expenditures Measure A Capital (Traffic Safety) Program or Project Miscellaneous ATMS Upgrades $13,000 $30,000 $30,000 $30,000 $30,000 $13,000 $30,000 $30,000 $30,000 $30,000 5 P a g e

15 ANNUAL ACCESSIBILITY PROGRAM (ADA, SIDEWALK/CURB/GUTTER & DRAIN INLETS) Locations: City Wide Project Background Federal and State regulations, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Title 24, establish a mandate that all facilities open to the public are equally accessible. Many sidewalks, bus stops, intersections and other facilities used for access to residences and businesses throughout the City were constructed prior to implementation of ADA and Title 24 requirements. In addition to addressing specific ADA related requests, the City actively makes investments that will improve overall walkability in neighborhoods throughout the City. Under the ADA, the City is required to conduct a Self-Assessment of all City programs and services and develop a Transition Plan to eliminate barriers accessing city buildings and pedestrian rights-ofway. The Transition Plan was adopted by City Council in July While many access improvements are installed in conjunction with other capital projects, each year the City receives requests for improved access along City sidewalks, intersections and bus stops. The requests are prioritized based upon available funding and overall benefit to the community and scheduled Annual Accessibility Improvements Project. A city-wide Walkability Survey has also been conducted. This survey enlisted participation of residents in each of the neighborhood areas in the City. To address these issues the City has programmed funds for sidewalk infill and sidewalk repair projects. Project Objectives Improve pedestrian access for all users of the City s public rights of way and repair deteriorated sections of sidewalk, curb and gutter. Existing Situations Lack of adequate pedestrian facilities including, but not limited to, sidewalk, curb access ramps pedestrian pushbuttons and audible pedestrian signal heads can make access along City rights of way difficult. Project Justification It is a goal of the City to be responsive to all requests for improved access; State and Federal regulations require the City to provide reasonable accommodation. Maintaining an active and robust access improvement and sidewalk repair program is in-line with City values of providing equal access to City services and full participation in local government affairs. 6 P a g e

16 Fiscal Implications The funding sources for this project include Community Development Block Grants (CDBG), and Measure A funding. In many instances, construction of new ADA ramps necessitates relocation and/or reconstruction of drainage inlets. As a result, additional funding for this work comes from the Storm Water Utility Fund. 5-Year Funding Allocated Funding 2018/ / / / /2023 Revenue CDBG* $360, Measure A Maintenance Storm Water Utility Fund $50,000 $50,000 $50,000 $50,000 $50,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 Program or Project Expenditures Misc.

17 AUBURN BOULEVARD COMPLETE STREETS PHASE II Locations: Auburn Blvd An important commercial corridor requiring priority attention from the City is the two mile-long Auburn Boulevard Corridor located in the north-central portion of the City. The Corridor is home to more than 130 businesses, and serves as a vital business services and retail node, responsible for generating approximately 15% of all city sales. The City has developed a comprehensive blueprint to revitalize the Auburn Boulevard Corridor. This blueprint encompasses a multi-faceted approach to revitalization with a Redevelopment and Land Use Component (including an infrastructure improvement element), a Business Retention Component and a Business Attraction Component. City staff is anticipating these overall project components will be implemented concurrently. The scope of the Auburn Boulevard-related projects in the City s Capital Improvement Program include capital reinvestment of ADA, pedestrian and transportation infrastructure, streetscape beautification and under-grounding overhead utility lines. To date, the project has been divided into 2 Phases with 3 segments within Phase 1: Phase 1- Segment 1 Sylvan Corners (completed in 2005); Segment 2 - utility undergrounding (Sylvan Corners to Rusch Park) and street improvements between Sycamore and Rusch Park (completion in late 2013); Segment 3 street improvements between Sycamore and Rusch Park (construction Fall 2013 through summer 2014); and Phase 2 Rusch Park to the northern City limit (design, row, utility undergrounding and enhancements) Rusch Park to North City Limit Project Background This project maintains two through-lanes in each direction and adds medians and pedestrian and bicycle facilities. Planned improvements include a Class II bike lane and a separated wider sidewalk with street trees. This project will have the added benefit of creating a uniform look to the corridor. Project Objectives Improve pedestrian and bicycle safety Provide landscaping and trees along the street frontage to encourage pedestrian traffic Minimize right of way impacts to property owners Existing Condition The existing roadway currently provides for bicycle traffic with a slightly wider outside vehicle lane. The existing sidewalks are 3-feet to 4-feet wide with utility poles placed within that width at the back of curb. With the increasing traffic volume and speed along this corridor, improved facilities are needed. Project Justification This project is needed to provide better pedestrian and bicycle safety along Auburn Boulevard to the northern city limits. This project will also carry north the improvements started in Phase I- Sylvan Intersection to Rusch Park. 8 P a g e

18 Fiscal Implications Total project cost for Phase II is estimated at $24,000,000, including design, right of way, undergrounding and pedestrian and roadway improvements. Full funding sources for this portion of the project have not yet been identified.

19 CITRUS HEIGHTS ELECTRIC GREENWAY Locations: Neighborhoods 8, 9 and 10 Project Background In 2014, the Council adopted the Creek Corridor Trail Project and directed Staff to update the General Plan, Pedestrian Master Plan, and Bikeway Master Plan to incorporate the Priority 1 (Highest Priority) projects into these documents. In 2016, staff applied for and received Regional Active Transportation Program (ATP) funding for the Preliminary Design and Environmental Documentation of the project and in 2017 applied for and received ATP SB1 Augmentation funding for the Final Design and Construction of the project. The Electric Greenway is a 2.9 mile multi-use trail between Sunrise and Wachtel following an existing SMUD corridor, connecting seven parks, several schools, and the Sunrise Marketplace. Project Objectives Encourage use of active modes of transportation by increasing the proportion of trips accomplished by biking and walking, increase safety and mobility for non-motorized users, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance public health Existing Condition The project is located on publically owned property consisting of Parks and bike/pedestrian easements along the SMUD Corridor. The conditions range from manicured park to informal trails along the SMUD Corridor. Project Justification The project was identified in the General Plan, Pedestrian Master Plan, and Bikeway Master Plan as the highest priority trail project. The project aides the City in reaching its walkability, greenhouse gas reduction, and quality of life goals. 10 P a g e

21 MARIPOSA AVENUE SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL Locations: Mariposa Avenue between Greenback Lane and Madison Avenue Project Background Capital improvement projects are planned to enhance pedestrian/bicycle safety and accessibility, particularly focused on provision of safe routes to and from San Juan High School and Skycrest Elementary School. Improvements include infill sidewalk construction, installation of bicycle facility improvements and lighting improvements. Project Objectives Enhance pedestrian and bicycle safety by improving the continuity and walking surfaces of City sidewalks. Provision of safe routes to and from school for pedestrian and bicyclists and promotion of walking/biking to and from school. The City strives to provide accessible sidewalks and pathways. Specific projects and budgets are listed below. Project Mariposa Ave. Safe Route to School Phase III Mariposa Ave. Safe Route to School Phase IV Description Curb, gutter and sidewalk; drainage improvements; access ramps and bike lane upgrades on east side of Mariposa Avenue between Northridge and Eastgate Avenue. Curb, gutter and sidewalk; drainage improvements; access ramps and bike lane upgrades on east and west side of Mariposa Avenue between Skycrest Elementary and Madison Avenue FY Budget $1,755,437 $135,000 Existing Condition In many locations throughout the City, sidewalks and/or bike lanes don t exist, lack continuity, or need improvements and thus limit access and use. This project seeks to improve safety on Mariposa Avenue which is a direct route connecting several schools. Project Justification This project will allow implementation of pedestrian and bicycle safety improvements and a range of mobility improvements and facilities to meet the needs of the City. Fiscal Implications: The final two phases of the Mariposa Avenue Safe Routes to School project are underway. The first two phases of this project constructed sidewalk, bicycle facilities and accessibility improvements between Greenback and Northridge. Storm Water Utility Funds will be utilized for drainage related improvements constructed as part of the Safe Routes projects. 12 P a g e

23 OLD AUBURN COMPLETE STREETS PLAN Location: Old Auburn Road between Sylvan Road/Auburn Boulevard and Fair Oaks Boulevard Project Background The Old Auburn Road Complete Streets Plan will address challenging transportation conditions including excessive speeds, skewed intersections, inadequate bicycle, pedestrian and transit infrastructure, and a history of collisions along nearly 2-miles of Old Auburn Road. The Plan community engagement plan to define community based solutions to transform Old Auburn Road into a Complete Street. The Plan will evaluate existing conditions, identify collision trends and deficiencies and develop Complete Streets solutions to address the concerns and increase safety, convenience and efficiency for all users. Project Objectives Develop a conceptual plan to improve safety, reduce collisions and improve accessibility for all users of the corridor. Existing Conditions Old Auburn Road is an incomplete street. The corridor sees high vehicular volumes and speeds and is lacking bicycle, pedestrian and transit infrastructure along much of the corridor. Old Auburn Road provides direct access to two schools and numerous commercial centers generating a significant amount of bicyclists and pedestrians. The City received a Sustainable Communities Grant in the amount of $190,000 for this project. The grant includes community engagement, existing conditions analysis, and development of a final conceptual level plan. The concept plan will be used to seek grant funding for design and construction. Project Justification This project will improve safety and accessibility and encourage increased multi-modal travel (walking and cycling). This project promotes a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, increased mobility, and encourages economic investment. 14 P a g e

24 Fiscal Implications: A Sustainable Communities Grant will fund the project. An 11.47% local match is required which will partially be met with City staff time. In addition to the amounts below, the City will be contributing approximately $37,428 in staff time for this project. Revenue 5-Year Funding Allocated Funding 2018/ / / / /2023 Sustainable Communities Grant $155,000 $35, TDA Bike/Ped Funds $5, Program or Project Plan Development Plan Development Expenditures Old Auburn Complete Streets Plan $160,850 $35, P a g e

25 PAVEMENT RESTORATION Locations: Various locations throughout the City Project Background Under the City s Pavement Management System (PMS), streets are resurfaced to improve ride quality and avoid more costly future reconstruction. The systematic approach takes the results of visual field evaluations of each street and, using specialized computer software, rates and categorizes the streets by an overall condition index. Use of the structured PMS approach in conjunction with staff inspection, permits the City to schedule resurfacing projects and ultimately extend the service life of a street s pavement. There are older streets in the City with deteriorated section of curbing, gutter and sidewalk. Many of the streets also have substandard accessibility at curb returns. In conjunction with the City s resurfacing projects, locations requiring repair of existing curb, gutter and sidewalk and installation of compliant curb access ramps are identified. Project Objectives Perform needed repairs to pavement to extend the pavement service life Use the PMS and staff inspection to schedule street resurfacing (i.e. overlays, cape seals and slurry seals) Minimize the need for more costly repairs and provide safe and desirable roadways for vehicles Repair curbs, gutters and sidewalk and install curb access ramps in conjunction with resurfacing Providing safe routes for all pedestrians Continue City s objective for improving public routes for physically limited persons Existing Condition Prior to incorporation, many streets throughout the City did not receive preventive maintenance and/or resurfacing. Progress had been made in recent years; however, the majority of City streets still require preventive maintenance or resurfacing. Signs of cracking, pot holes and base failures can be seen in residential, collector and arterial streets. Project Justification The PMS was set up to manage the maintenance of streets by using cost effective methods and timing strategies. By deferring preventive maintenance or resurfacing, the cost to repair streets increases dramatically compared to the annual cost of maintaining streets. Providing these improvements will minimize unsafe conditions at curb returns, improve access for pedestrians and disabled/ada persons and promote the City s objectives in improving handicapped accessibility in public right of way. 16 P a g e

26 Fiscal Implications The City will continue to seek grant funding such as Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ) and Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) for resurfacing projects along our arterials; however, residential resurfacing will be budgeted for on an annual basis using local funds, such as Measure A Maintenance, Gas Tax and the Road Maintenance Rehabilitation Account Fund (enhanced gas tax). 5-Year Funding Allocated Funding 2018/ / / / /2023 Gas Tax $100, Revenue Measure A Maintenance Road Maintenance Rehab Account* $100, $1,444, Program or Project Expenditures Residential Resurfacing Program $1,444, Arterial Program $200, *Anticipated revenues from SB-1 Transportation Bill. Planned expenditures for subsequent fiscal years will be included in future CIP s following approval by state oversight. This amount is contingent upon RMRA not being repealed. 17 P a g e

27 SUNRISE BOULEVARD REHABILITATION AND COMPLETE STREETS Location: Sunrise Blvd between Locher Drive and Sayonara Drive west side (Phase 2A) Sunrise Blvd between Greenback Lane and Oak Avenue (Phase 2B) Project Background The Sunrise Boulevard Complete Streets Improvements (SBCS) is a comprehensive and realistic Complete Streets project consisting of multiple phases that will rehabilitate and reconstruct a regionally significant arterial, adding much needed Complete Streets elements throughout the project area. The Sunrise Boulevard corridor is a major north-south arterial trunk running between HWYs 50 and 80. Over 40,000 vehicles use this roadway daily. It also serves as a primary connection between major employment centers (Placer County and its cities and Rancho Cordova) and health care destinations (Sutter and Kaiser hospitals and numerous health care providers). This is particularly significant as the local aging population requires increased levels of safe and convenient access to health care. Project Objectives Design and construct a continuous Complete Street for Sunrise Boulevard, to provide safe, accessible and convenient transportation options for all users of the corridor. Existing Condition Sunrise Boulevard between the north City limits and Sayonara Drive is a four lane major arterial with inadequate, incomplete and non-compliant (ADA) pedestrian, bicycle and transit facilities. The arterial experiences high crash rates and is a challenging and disconnected environment for nonvehicular forms of transportation. Project Justification The Projects will enhance safety and accessibility and encourage increased multi-modal travel (walking, cycling and transit). Additionally, improvements along this busy corridor will reduce congestion, promote reduced Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) per household, encourage economic investment, and repair/replace deteriorating infrastructure.

36 CITYWIDE LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE SERVICES Locations: City Wide Project Background The City maintains a substantial amount of landscaped areas, both along the medians as well as the entrances to neighborhoods. In 2008 the City entered into two separate contracts with one vender to provide landscape maintenance services. The services include the maintenance of lawn, shrubs, plants and flowers, irrigation systems and minor tree maintenance. Both contracts are in effect through June 30, Project Objectives Provide timely and responsive service on a scheduled and on call basis; Reduce the potential for hazards created by overgrown trees and vegetation blocking the view of traffic control devices; Improve and maintain the City s investment in providing a visually inviting community. Existing Condition Regular maintenance, primarily weekly requirements as well as on-call landscape repairs. Project Justification Maintain the landscape areas throughout the community for the aesthetic purposes as well as safety. Fiscal Implications These services are funded primarily with Gas Tax Funds, along with Landscape Maintenance Assessment District funds contributing where applicable. $241,820 has been budged for the 18/19 FY. 5-Year Funding Allocated Funding 2018/ / / / /2023 Revenue Gas Tax $175, Landscape Maintenance Assessment Districts Program or Project $66, Expenditures Landscape Maintenance Services $241, TBD Contract expires June 30, 2019; new budgets will be determined with new contracts 26 P a g e

37 STREET LIGHTING ENERGY EFFICIENCY CONVERSION PROGRAM Locations: City Wide Project Background Of the approximate 4,423 City maintained street lights, approximately 950 have been converted to Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology. LED technology continues to evolve and the amount light from the same amount of energy increases with each new generation. The conversions that were accomplished from were financed by Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) funding and other one-time sources. SMUD one-time rebates and incentives also supplement the initial costs. This program is to have an annual budget of $50,000 which can be enhanced by other funding sources for energy savings devices. The California Energy Commission (CEC) offers 1% energy efficiency loans covering the total cost of conversion projects. Loan payback is accomplished utilizing the cost savings from a reduction in the monthly energy bills. Conversion of approximately 475 additional street lights to energy efficient models may be accomplished utilizing this loan and is included in this budget item. Project Objectives Convert as many street lights as possible, utilizing available funding sources, to energy efficient models, resulting in a reduction in energy costs, and reduced maintenance costs. Ensure optimum public health, safety and convenience through the use of the best available lighting fixtures. Existing Condition The existing street light fixtures are failing at a high rate without a cost schedule for replacement; each one that fails is an additional cost to the lighting district. New fixtures will reduce the energy cost per fixture by 40-50%. In addition, as LED fixtures have a lower failure rate, response maintenance costs for outages will also reduce. Project Justification Existing fixtures are not efficient and have a short period between needed maintenance; they are very old and are failing. 27 P a g e

38 Fiscal Implications The City lighting district does not have a funding reserve or the capital to fund this project. The total project cost using existing pricing would be $1,400,000. The cost savings resulting from the conversion due to reduction in energy use would afford a continuous annual budget for the conversion program. SMUD rebates and incentives also supplement this budget and it is anticipated that a 1% loan from the CEC will fund a larger conversion project in FY 18/19. 5-Year Funding Allocated Funding 2018/ / / / /2023 Revenue Gas Tax $25,000 $50,000 $50,000 $50,000 $50,000 CEC Loan $250,000 Program or Project Expenditures Energy Efficient Street Light Conversion $275,000 $50,000 $50,000 $50,000 $50, P a g e

41 TRAFFIC SIGNAL MAINTENANCE Locations: City Wide Project Background There are 62 traffic signal locations maintained by the City of Citrus Heights. 59 are located at intersections solely within the boundaries of Citrus Heights, and two span the City/County. Of the sixtytwo locations, two are dedicated as fire station signals and four as pedestrian signals. There are an additional six locations with a flasher or beacon. The City also operates a Traffic Operations Center (TOC) capable of monitoring and controlling traffic signals formerly connected to the County system. The control server; ATMS.now is an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) encompassing twenty-one remote cameras mounted on signal poles, two permanent changeable message sign (CMS), and thirty-one traffic signals from its location at City Hall. Maintenance items such as traffic signal LED replacement, server upgrades, and replacement of batteries in Battery Backup Systems (BBS), painting signal appurtenances for contrast and visibility are part of planned activities to ensure proper operation and compliance with State mandates. Emergency response to knockdowns is also included in this program. Contracting for traffic signal operations engineering services is part of this budget item. The city is currently working with SACOG to develop a citywide ITS master plan. The city has not had an update to the ITS Master Plan since 2000 and it is necessary to provide a long term plan for growth. The updated ITS Master Plan will help ensure the City is in alignment with SACOG Regional Transportation allotments. Evaluation of existing and development of new traffic signal coordination plans is also included in this budget item. Minor upgrades to the traffic signals to meet current federal and state rules and regulations, such as installation of ADA accessible push buttons, is also part of this budget item. Project Objectives Provide regular scheduled maintenance to traffic signal facilities and perform as-needed emergency maintenance to traffic signal facilities. Ensure efficient and safe operations of all traffic signals and provide needed traffic signal functional evaluations and timing checks. Existing Condition Conditions vary throughout the City.

43 TRANSPORTATION MAINTENANCE (CONTRACT SERVICES) Locations: Various locations throughout the City Project Background The City of Citrus Heights has 235 miles of public roads within its boundaries. To keep the City a desirable place to live, work and shop, these roads must be safe, convenient to use and visually pleasing to travel on. The City contracts out most of its transportation maintenance services, including street signs, street striping and markings, graffiti abatement, road maintenance (pothole repair) and hazardous material response. Project Objectives Provide quality and timely maintenance services for streets in the City of Citrus Heights, which makes streets easier to walk, ride and drive on and safer for all users. Existing Condition The City has been operating on an on-call basis for transportation maintenance services since formally separating these services from the County of Sacramento. Daily maintenance including graffiti removal, hazardous material response, pothole filling, replacement of knocked down traffic signs and repair of the palm tree lighting on Sunrise Boulevard (seasonal) are performed on an asneeded basis. Regular replacement of pavement striping, legends and markings and street signs, to ensure optimum visibility and enhance traffic safety, is performed on an annual scheduled basis. Pavement striping, legends and markings deteriorate with time and vehicle traffic and become less visible during when it is dark or in some cases completely obliterated. As a result, striping, legends and markings must be refreshed on a periodic basis. The estimated replacement value of the all striping and marking is approximately $1,025,000. The City s goal is to replace approximately 1/10 th of this inventory each year through the maintenance program as well as with capital projects. Streets signs fade and become less reflective from long exposure to sunlight and in some cases repeated graffiti making them harder to see in both day and night conditions. Additionally, the Federal Highway Administration s Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), adopted by the State of California, mandates that regulatory, street name and warning signs meet minimum retro-reflectivity standards. To ensure optimum visibility, enhance traffic safety and comply with MUTCD regulations the City must replace older signs on a periodic basis. The City s goal is to replace approximately 1/10 th of its sign inventory each year. As additional revenues are identified, the City will plan to increase maintenance of citywide signage and striping. 33 P a g e

49 NEIGHBORHOOD AREAS DRAINAGE MASTER PLANS Locations: Neighborhood Areas 1 thru 5 and 11 Project Background The fundamental goal of the Neighborhood Areas Drainage Master Plans is to address current and future drainage needs within the City s 11 neighborhood areas and develop a capital improvement program to address the findings. The final product of the study will not only guide the City in effectively addressing drainage issues but also provide guidance on addressing stormwater quality and water retention (hydro-modification). All neighborhood areas will be studied and prioritized based on the lack of infrastructure and reoccurring drainage issues. These issues include City and County drainage complaints over the past ten years, high maintenance costs based on open ditches, and cross-property drainage ditches that require staff to coordinate rights of entry, and property owner complaints regarding neighbors drainage through their property. Project Objectives Develop a capital improvement program to help guide the City in implementing future capital improvement projects and eliminate recurring local flooding. The master plan for Areas 4, 5 and 11 will be completed in fiscal year 2019/2020 and the master plan for Areas 1, 2 and 3 will be completed in fiscal year 2020/2021. Existing Condition Throughout the City a multitude of drainage issues exist, the majority of the drainage infrastructure was developed prior to the City incorporating and requires improvements. Project Justification Improve overall drainage conveyance, and reduce the risk of flooding and damage to property due to an inadequate or the lack of drainage system. Fiscal Implications The City proposes to budget $500,000 from fiscal year 2018/2019 through fiscal year 2020/2021.

50 NEIGHBORHOOD AREAS 8, 9, & 10 DRAINAGE MASTER PLAN IMPLEMENTATION Locations: Neighborhood Areas 8, 9, & 10 Project Background The fundamental goal of the Areas 8, 9, and 10 Master Plan Implementation is to complete projects included in the Capital Improvement Program list in the Drainage Master Plan. The projects effectively address drainage issues and improve stormwater quality and conveyance in the area. In addition, the projects will eliminate deficiencies, known flooding problems, and roadside ditches where possible. The projects will be prioritized and consideration will be given to whether improvements would eliminate existing flooding or would prevent potential future flooding due to facility failure, the severity of potential flooding, whether the flooding would affect structures, major roads, or minor roads, and whether the improvements would provide stormwater quality benefits. Cost effectiveness will also be an important consideration and projects that provide multiple benefits such as flood control and water quality benefits will have higher priority. Project Objectives Improve drainage, eliminate deficiencies; and implement the capital improvement program developed by the Master Plan. Existing Conditions and Project Justifications Areas 8, 9, and 10 have a combination of developed drainage systems which include sidewalk, curb, and gutter as well as subsurface storm drains; as well rural areas with informal drainage systems. Throughout the City a multitude of drainage issues exist, with a majority of the drainage infrastructure having been developed prior to the City s incorporation.

52 NEIGHBORHOOD CREEK BANK RESTORATION PROGRAM Locations: City Wide Project Background There are approximately 26 miles of creek corridors in Citrus Heights. Throughout the City, there are areas with eroded banks, an overpopulation of invasive species, and endangered wildlife habitats. Because each creek area has unique challenges, this program focuses on collaboration with surrounding residents to sustainably manage the riparian habitat based on neighborhood priorities. Project Objectives One objective of the Neighborhood Creek Bank Restoration Program is to work with neighborhood residents to identify areas along creek corridors with potential erosion, a large number of invasive species, and threatened wildlife habitats. Stormwater Program staff will collaborate with community members to establish a shared vision to sustainably manage erosion, invasive species, and threatened wildlife along the creek corridors in their neighborhood areas. Volunteer activity will be utilized to restore banks, clear invasive species, and re-establish wildlife habitats. This program may eventually include large projects as additional grant funds are secured. Existing Condition Currently, there are areas along the City s 26 miles of creek with eroding banks, a large amount of invasive plants, and endangered riparian habitats. The degradation of creek areas is a result of various factors such as the introduction of non-native species; illegal dumping in and along creeks; development of manmade structure; and blockages caused by wildlife such as beaver dams. Together, these barriers damage natural habitats, increase bank erosion, and impede the flow of water. Project Justification This pilot program emphasizes neighborhood involvement and stewardship to develop a resident-led plan to restore and maintain creek areas. 41 P a g e

The City used Neighborhood Stabilization Program funds (federal stimulus dollars) for the tenant relocation and demolition. Approximately $3.4 million in Redevelopment funds were used to purchase the residential properties. In FY12/13, two of the vacant parcels were developed into a community center and neighborhood park with a combination of Community Development Block Grant and Park In-Lieu funds. Because Redevelopment funds were used to purchase the properties, the City has a statutory requirement to replace the low- and moderateincome housing units demolished as part of the Sayonara Redevelopment Project before September 5, Project Objectives Fulfill replacement housing statutory requirements; Improve quality of life on street; Reduce calls for service; Introduce ownership housing; and Promote private investment. Existing Condition The City has completed many public improvements including the installation of streetlights, repaving, traffic-calming devices, all-way stops, crosswalks and limited landscaping. In addition to making public improvements, the City has purchased 15 properties and has demolished these properties to make way for future redevelopment. Two of these properties were developed with a neighborhood park and community center in Fiscal Year 12/13. Project Justification The project will provide affordable replacement housing on Sayonara Drive, which will help revitalize the neighborhood.
