Lindley, Assistant to the City Manager, DATE: November 4, 1994 SUBJECT: Consider an Amendment to the City's 1994/95 Budget and Allocate Funds for the Installation of a Wrought Iron Fence at the Metrolink Station. Backaround Last year the City Council approved the installation of landscaping and irrigation in the slope between the north Metrolink Station parking lot and the railroad platform. In addition, the City Council also approved the construction of stairs to provide easy assess to the platform and to eliminate the public's inclination to walk through the newly landscaped slope. Apparently the City's efforts to eliminate pedestrian traffic through the slope has failed. The result is that dirt paths have been created where foot traffic has worn down the landscaping. Staff proposes the installation of a four foot wrought iron fence which would blend with the existing fence. The fence would cost approximately $2,240, or $16 per linear foot. Improvements at the Metrolink Station can be funded with Local TDA funds. Staff proposes that $2,240 be transferred from the City's TDA reserves to the transit budget for this project. Recommendation Staff recommends that the City Council approve an amendment to the City's 1994/95 budget, as identified in the staff report, and allocate $2,240 from TDA funds for the installation of a wrought iron fence at the Metrolink Station.
