McCarty Street ·Jefferson City, Missouri 65101 • P 573-634-6410 • F 573-634 -6562 • www .jeffcitymo .org Date : January 9, 2023 To: Public Works and Planning Committee Through: Matt Morasch, Public Works Director From : Eric Seaman , Wastewater Division Director Subject: Biosolids Upgrade Project-Design Build Contract At the October, 2022 Public Works and Planning Meeting we reported about the Biosolids improvement project and recommended proceeding as a Design-Build Project with selected Burns & McDonnell Engineering Co., Inc . working with Engineering Surveys and Services LLC . The fee for Phase I is $1,244,046 which is appropriate for a total project that is estimated at $14M . This project is on the Intended Use Plan for MDNR and they are currently reviewing the draft contract for State Revolving Loan Fund reimbursement. We recommend proceeding with the Phase I Contract. As we stated in October, the progressive Design-Build process delivers projects on average 33% faster and 6% less cost than conventional procurement methods. It presents an advantage for this project for multiple reasons: 1) The loan closing with MDNR can occur once a guaranteed price is established so the City can expend less money before being reimbursed from the SRF. 2) It will allow procurement prior to 2024 when the market is expected to experience cost accelerators due to ARPA fund projects . 3) Cost and time risks are managed by the Design-Build team impact the City only in rare occasions (force majeure , etc.) This contract still has an "off-ramp" clause that allows the City to bid the construction conventionally if the project is not progressing during the design phase. If you need any other information please let me know. Thanks.

TAP grants fund projects that provide alternative modes of transportation including pedestrian, bicycle, and other non-motorized uses. Eligible TAP projects activities include the following : 1. Construction of on-road and off-road trail facilities for pedestrians, bicyclists , and other non- motorized forms of transportation, including sidewalks, bicycle infrastructure, pedestrian and bicycle signals, traffic calming techniques, lighting, and other safety-related infrastructure, and transportation projects to achieve ADA compliance; 2. Construction of infrastructure-related projects and systems that will provide safe routes for non- drivers, including children, older adults, and individuals with disabilities to access daily needs; 3. Conversion and use of abandoned railroad corridors for trails for pedestrians, bicyclists, or other non- . motorized transportation users; and 4. Construction of infrastructure-related projects to improve the ability of students to walk and bicycle to school, including sidewalk improvements, traffic calming and speed reduction improvements, pedestrian and bicycle crossing improvements, on-street bicycle facilities, off-street bicycle and pedestrian facilities, secure bicycle parking facilities, and traffic diversion improvements in the vicinity of schools . You may recall earlier this year that the City applied for and was awarded two TAP projects, namely, the completion of the Highway 179 Bypass Trail and Improved Crosswalks at Southwest Boulevard and at Lafayette Street. The applications that are being proposed for submission for this round are a Greenway Trail from St. Louis Road to Riverside Park and Pedestrian Accommodations along Stadium Boulevard from the existing trail near JCMG to Lynnwood Drive in conjunction with improvements to Stadium Boulevard U:\Public Works\Engineering\dbange\PUBLIC WORKS & PLANNING\2023\1-2023\TAP Grant Applications.docx Memorandum including the construction of a roundabout at the intersection with Satinwood Drive and improvements to the stormwater system and roadway elevation to address flooding concerns. In the case of the trail to Riverside Park it provides direct access to the park for all those living in the Landwehr Hills Subdivision as when as those along and off of E. McCarty Street and Saint Louis Road. In addition, for those who may be traveling to western side of the City it provides a bypass of the hill separating the eastern and western branches of Boggs Creek. As for the pedestrian improvements along Stadium the proposed trail will connect the existing trail that runs through JCMG to the intersection of Stadium and Satinwood and thereby connect those living along and off of Satinwood and Vieth drive to the Wears Creek Greenway System. It will then continue eastward to Lynnwood Drive as first phase of what is envisioned as a trail continuing eastward to one day connect to the East Branch Greenway at JC High School. The trail will also be carried from the intersection back to Portabello Place Drive as a first phase of a trail connection running southward to the Colonial Hills Subdivision. 2 Funding for the trail into Riverside Park would be provided through Parks sales tax funds while the work on Stadium would be funded through the City/County joint project account of the Capital Improvement Sales Tax. A requirement of application is the inclusion of a Project Sponsor Funding Resolution. To fulfill this requirement resolutions in support of the selected projects will be brought to the Council on January 17th. If you have any questions or concerns I can be reached at 634-6433.

Smith, P.E. ~ Airport Engineering Consultant Selection With this memo staff is recommending contracting with Jviation of Jefferson City as our airport engineering consultant for the next 5 years. Staff expects to bring a design contract forward to the full council for the new control tower in the future once grant agreements with MoDOT and the FAA are work out. Staff request the committee's concurrence with this selection. Per FAA requirement, airport sponsors are required to do a solicitation for engineering services every 5 years. In our most recent request for qualifications, we received submittals from 2 firms, Jviation and Olseen Engineering. Our current engineering consultant choose not to submit to continue with us, stating that workload would not permit them to give us the services required. The selection committee reviewed the submittals from each firm and conducted an interview with both. Both firms were highly qualified but due to several factors the committee recommended moving forward with Jviation . Jviation is our current airport planning consultant. In that capacity they have completed our Airport Master Plan and are currently working on the environm e ntal clearance for the site for a new airport control tower. cc : Matt Morasch, P.E.

Background The City of Jefferson is required to adopt a citizen participation plan that sets forth the City's policies and procedures for citizen participation. The Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (HCDA), authorized the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to make grants under the Community -Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. The City of Jefferson receives CDBG funds annually as an entitlement community. The grant is awarded based on a formula that takes into consideration the population, the demographics of persons living in poverty, the level of overcrowded housing, etc. The Citizen Participation Plan was developed in accordance with the requirements listed in 24 CFR Part 91.105 (Citizen Participation Plan; local governments). The City is to follow a Citizen Participation Plan that addresses the following issues: participation, access to meetings, access to information, access to records, publishing the Plan, public hearings, notice of hearings, public comments, technical assistance, complaints, and amendments. 2. Purpose of the Citizen Participation Plan-Introduction The City of Jefferson Citizen Participation Plan provides a guide for public input and participation in identifying housing, community development and public service needs, and the funding priorities for programs and target populations to be served through resources for the City of Jefferson. The City of Jefferson's Neighborhood Services Division is responsible for developing and implementing a citizen participation plan with the other plans and reports required by HUD. The purpose of this Citizen Participation Plan is to encourage citizen participation in the decision-making process with particular emphasis on the participation of low-to-moderate income persons for whom CDBG funds are proposed to be used. All citizens, including low-to-moderate income persons, persons living in low-to-moderate income neighborhoods, persons living in slum and blighted areas, minority populations, non-English speaking persons, persons with disabilities, persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, homeless persons/agencies and residents of public and assisted housing developments are encouraged to participate in the development and review of the following: • The Citizen Participation Plan provides a guide for public input and participation in the Consolidated Plan process and is intended to encourage citizen participation in the definition of housing, community development and public service needs. • Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Plan is a plan that takes meaningful actions, in addition to combating discrimination, that overcomes patterns of segregation and fosters inclusive communities free from barriers that restrict access to opportunity based on protected characteristics. • Consolidated Plan is a five-year plan to examine the housing and community development needs for the community and outline anticipated strategies to address those needs . The Five-Year Consolidated Plan is intended to establish strategies to assist the community in meeting goals intended by the United States Congress to provide decent housing, a suitable living environment and expand economic opportunities for low-income or disabled persons. • Annual Action Plan is an annual plan to describe in detail how CDBG funds will be used and how the Consolidated Plan will be carried out. 4 • Substantial Amendments to the One-Year Action Plan or Five-Year Plan are changes to any of the goals, policies, or procedures identified in the Consolidated Plan or Annual Action Plan. • Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) is the annual report to evaluate progress toward the goals established in the Consolidated Plan. The objectives of the Citizen Participation Plan are: • Encourage citizen participation by providing citizens with adequate information concerning the amount of funds expected to be available for community development, housing activities, and public services through federal and local funding sources, the proposed range of activities that may be undertaken with those funds, including the amount that will benefit very low and low income persons and the plans to minimize displacement and to assist any persons displaced, other important program requirements, and proposed and approved uses of funds; • The jurisdiction shall encourage, in conjunction with consultation with public housing agencies, the participation of residents of public and assisted housing developments (including any resident advisory boards, resident councils, and resident management corporations) in the process of developing and implementing the consolidated plan, along with other low-income residents of targeted revitalization areas in which the developments are located. The jurisdictions shall make an effort to provide information to the Public Housing Authority (PHA) about affirmatively furthering fair housing strategy, and consolidated plan activities related to its developments and surrounding communities so that the PHA can make this information available at the annual public hearing(s) required for the PHA Plan. • Provide for and encourage citizen participation from all sectors of the community, with particular emphasis on participation by low-to-moderate income persons, low and moderate income residents of blighted areas in which federal funds under federal funding sources are used or are proposed to be used; and for the participation of minority and non-English speaking residents, as well as, persons with mobility, visual, speech or hearing impairments, and in-conjunction with public housing agencies and the participation of residents of public and assisted housing developments; • Encourage local and regional institutions, the Continuum of Care, Homeless Task Force, Central Missouri Community Action, Building Community Bridges, Capital City Housing Task Force, local businesses and developers and local faith-based organizations in the process of developing and implementing the Consolidated Plan and the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing. • Provide opportunities for participation of local and regional institutions and other organizations including businesses, developers, and community and faith-based organizations; • Provide citizens, public agencies, and all other interested parties with reasonable and timely access to information and records relating to the City's Consolidated Plan, and the use of assistance provided by federal funding sources included in the Plan for the preceding five (5) years; • Provide technical assistance to groups representing very low-to-moderate income persons and to interested residents that request such assistance in developing proposals 5 for funding assistance under federal and local funding sources covered by the Consolidated Plan, with the level and type of assistance to be determined by the City; • Conduct public hearings to obtain the view of citizens on housing, community development and public services needs, proposed activities, which hearings shall be held after adequate notice, at times and locations convenient to potential and actual beneficiaries, with accommodation for persons with disabilities and non-English speaking residents; • The City should explore alternative public involvement techniques and quantitative ways to measure efforts that encourage citizen participation in a shared v ision for change in communities and neighbo r hoods, and the review of program performance; • Prepare a summary of comments or views received from citizens in writing or orally through public hearings, focus groups, community meetings and other methods when preparing the Consolidated Plan, and any amendments to the Plan or the performance report and attach the summary to the Plan or report. In addition, provide for a timely response to such comments and views within fifteen (15) working days, where practicable, and • Pr ovide criteria for determining what constitutes a substantial change in the planned or actual activities described in the approved Consolidated Plan which would require an amendment to the Plan. The citizen participation plan must require that, before the jurisdiction adopts a consolidated plan, the jurisdiction will make available to residents, public agencies , and other interested parties information that includes : • the amount of assistance the jurisdiction expects to receive (including grant funds and program income); • the range of activities that may be undertaken, including the estimated amount that will benefit low-to-moderate income persons; • the jurisdiction's plans to minimize displacement of persons and to assist any pe r sons displaced, specifying the types and levels of assistance the jurisdiction will make available (or require others to make available) to persons displaced, even ifthe jurisdiction expec t s no displacement to occu r; • when and how the jurisdiction will make this information available . All meetings are open to the public and are scheduled at times and locations convenient to po t ential and actual beneficiaries with reasonable accommodations for non-English speaking persons and for persons with disabilities upon request . The City of Jefferson will coordinate with El Puen t e Hispanic Ministr ies for translator services for non-English speaking persons. Braille or large print documents will be made available upon request. All comments will be incorporated into the Consolidated Plan and the Consolidated Annual Evaluation and Performance Report (CAPER) and made part of the record of the citizen participation process for each program year. Definitions: Communi ty Development Block Gra nt (CDBG) program provides communities with resources to address a wide range of housing and community development needs that benefit low-to-moderate 6 income persons through decent housing, suitable living environments, and expanded economic opportunities. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is the federal government agency that creates and manages programs pertaining to federal home ownership, affordable housing, fair housing, homelessness, and community and housing development. Low to Moderate Income (LMI) Household is 0-80% of the Area Median Income (AMI) for a jurisdiction as defined annually by HUD. In addition , this includes those individuals presumed by HUD to be principally LMI (abused children, battered spouses, elderly persons, severely disabled adults, homeless persons, illiterate adults, persons living with AIDS and migrant farm workers). Low to Moderate Income (LMI) Neighborhood refers to any neighborhood in which 51 percent or more of the households are low-to-moderate income households. Public Hearings provide the public, especially LMI individuals and families, the opportunity to provide public testimony or comment to the City. Public hearings are to be advertised in local newspapers and made accessible to persons who do not speak English or who have a disability. 3. Citizen Participation Process Public Hearings The City of Jefferson will conduct public hearings to obtain the views of citizens on housing, community development and public service needs, proposed activities, and program performance, which hearings shall be held after adequate notice at times and locations convenient to potential and actual beneficiaries, with accommodation for persons with disabilities and non-English residents. For planning the Annual Action Plan and Five-Year Consolidated Plan a minimum of two public hearings will be held. One public hearing will be held by the Neighborhood Services Division at the beginning of the Consolidated Plan process or program year to solicit citizen comments on housing and community development needs, and proposed activities. This hearing will discuss the programs that the City administers and will be held to present a proposed budget and funding for activities, to obtain views of citizens on housing and community development needs, including priority non-housing and housing community needs. This first public hearing shall also be held to allow interested groups and/or agencies the opportunity to discuss their programs and make presentations in seeking funding. Testimony received at this hearing will be considered by the Neighborhood Services Division in preparing the proposed Consolidated Plan and/or Annual Action Plan. In addition, the Neighborhood Services Division may gather community input through a variety of means, such as forums and focus groups, and the use of surveys for the development of funding priorities and criteria. Upon the development of a proposed plan and posting a notice thereof, the City will accept comments for 30 days and include such comments with those from the public hearing within the plan . Prior to approval and the submission of the plan to HUD, the City will consider public comments during the second public hearing on the proposed plan as recommended by the Neighborhood Services Division. This second public hearing is held by the Neighborhood Services Division to gather citizen input regarding the official CDBG budget and proposed activities .

Enclosures Summary CAMPO Technical Committee Staff Report Capital Area Active Transportation Plan January 5, 2023 Staff, along with consultants Crafton Tull and LaneShift, are continuing development of the Capital Area Active Transportation Plan. The planning process will integrate the Capital Area Pedestrian & Bicycle Plan (2016), Jefferson City's Sidewalk Plan (2010) and Greenway Master Plan (2007), and the Holts Summit Pedestrian , Bicycle, and Transit Plan (2014). The Capital Area Active Transportation Plan covers all CAMPO communities and is expected to be completed by early Fa112023. The plan will generally include the following: • comprehensive set of strategies to ensure better options for biking, walking, and transit • recommendations for prioritizing infrastructure improvements • outline recommendations for new policies, processes, and infrastructure • base recommendations on a robust public and stakeholder involvement campaign Funding for this project totals $125,000 and is provided via the CAMPO Consolidated Planning Grant ($1 00 ,000), with the required 20% match provided by JC Parks ($25 ,000). Public Survey A public survey was disseminated in August and more than 800 responses were received . The survey was made available in English and Spanish . An overview of the survey responses will be presented at the next Board of Directors meeting. Public Engagement Three public meetings were held in September inviting the public to comment on the current bike/ped network and what barriers and opportunities they see in the region. Staff also gave multiple presentations to various community groups, committees, and commissions requesting comment. During the first round of public engagement, staff and consultants engaged with the steering committee and several stakeholder groups, including the following; Public Safety, Healthcare, Education, Small Communities, Advocates/Transit Providers , and Business Owners .

Both have advantages. Whichever path is picked, it would be really helpful if the stairs were repaired so that they can be used in the interim (years before either path makes Madison St parking unavailable).

Over the years, I have watched the parking lot continue to deteriorate to the point it is currently. I hc;~ve watched as the railing in-between levels rust to the point of falling off/over until it is no longer there. I used the stairs at the corner of Madison and Capital multiple times a day until it was closed coming up on a year due to being unsafe. Multiple times a week I see visitors to our city park and then walk to the stairs only to look and see they can't use the stairs and have to look around to see where they can exit the parking garage. The elevator continues to break down and will sometimes be out of commission for several days. The Madison and Commercial Way stairwell is at the point where it is almost unsafe. The railing is close to rusting off at the base in several areas as well as the stairs themselves are beginning to crack in several places. When the level was closed due to it being unsafe, I was one of the staff members that went and moved our pool cars off of the level to safe parking spaces. I am in favor of the complete replacement instead of repair. This is not something that we need to put off for others down the road. The cost of this is only going to increase, if we put a band-aid on it now, with inflation the cost of replacement is only going to increase in the future. I am not sure which option I am in favor of, as one makes sense with the price being the cheapest, however it does not factor in the potential cost of acquisition and demolition of the New Tribune building. I do know land is an investment, but I don't know with that added cost if it is the most efficient. In order to grow, we must start to take ownership of the things we have and invest to make our city the best we can be. I know there was mention of the renovations to the Capitol complex parking, but I have not heard if that parking will include space for public parking as well. Thank you for all you continue to do for our city, Jacob Robinett Sent from Mail for Windows 1 Dear City Council Members, Downtown Jefferson City PO Box 652 Jefferson City, MO 65102 573-291-352 4· The Downtown Association would like to recommend pursuing a new parking garage in the downtown district. As we have communicated previously , parking in Downtown Jefferson City continues to be a pain point, and we are always looking for new ways to address it for our community. Studies that have been done throughout the years support the need for more parking, and as business owners, employees, and community members who spend a lot of time Downtown, we see the need firsthand. Because of this, we think that it would be devastating to the downtown district to completely remove the parking garage at once, leaving the district without the adequate parking needed to support the area. In the past we have supported the need for a second parking garage in the downtown district. We still see a need for additional parking to support downtown. Our thriving downtown is a paramount component of Jefferson City's quality of life . Downtown provides a central gathering place for entertainment, civic life and commerce . Downtown is a focal point for our city's identity and pride, attracting visitors and projecting a healthy community tmage. The dollars generated from those visiting and doing business in downtown generate economic growth and future success for our central business district and our Capital City as we encourage people to shop, dine and entertain locally . Addressing the parking issues in downtown is not just for right now. It ensures continued success of this vital component of our community by providing the needed infrastructure as our community grows. By utilizing funds that are collected through parking fees and fines, our community can make a drastic improvement to an area of town without an additional impact to the city budget. Thank you for your consideration, Downtown Association Board of Directors Natalie Newville , President Mark Leesman, Treasurer Angela Nale , Secretary Lauren Moscato Jus tin Duren Matt Green Cara Alexander Stark Andrea Holloway Smith.

I've been a bridge engineer for over 30 years. Based on my experience, I implore the city to replace the garage. Do NOT rehab it. It is too far gone. My first choice is option 2e and my second choice is option 2c. No need to buy the adjacent lot. Also, I get the desire for retail; however, there is no shortage of available retail space already so I recommend you make the whole structure parking and space for city parking staff. Thank you.

Repairs seem to be merely a band aid and in the end will cost almost as much as replacement. Therefore, I favor replacing. Frank Jung 1 Smith, Britt From: Sent: To: Subject: David Overfelt <dave.l.overfelt@gmail.com> Tuesday, November 29, 2022 6:09AM G_JCParking Madison garage My sense is the full replace and enlargement option is the best long term solution. However, would it be possible to knock it down, put an apartment building or hotel with meeting rooms and ground floor shopping there instead, and move the garage a few blocks away? The spot itself is very well located. It seems poorly suited for parking. A hotel with meeting space would get used by the state constantly since their meeting space options are all bad. Apartments would probably be a useful addition to JC housing stock. Something to produce tax dollars would be great. Some of the old rotted out capitol Ave properties should probably just get pushed over. Maybe over there? Parking shuttle or something like that.
