The roadway dates from 1983 with a small portion on N. Spruce St. that is within ADOT's right of way, which requires permitting and coordination with them. City staff and Nelson Engineering are coordinating on obtaining the necessary approvals. Work is expected to take place this summer with completion before winter sets in. Council's support is respectfully requested. lw �I. ;, J_ , Not r FRRST AVENUE � r LOCATION MAP Qa SCALE: NOT TO SCALE NORTM PROPOSED BOUNDARY FOR DEMO AND REPLACEWfNT OF PAVEMENT. CURB AND GVITTER.
