SUBJECT: Safe Routes to School Application, Montalvin Manor
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
APPROVE & AUTHORIZE the Redevelopment Director to submit a Montalvin Manor Safe
Routes to School application to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
FISCAL IMPACT
None, no general funds are involved. The application would reflect an approximately$23,000
match of future Montalvin Manor redevelopment funds.
BACKGROUND
The Redevelopment Agency recently undertook a Transportation and Access Community
Planning initiative in Montalvin Manor. A high priority that emerged from this process was
enhancing access to Montalvin Elementary School. The Safe Routes to School request of
approximately $229,000 includes traffic calming measures on Christine Drive, the current
street from which the school is accessed, as well as enhanced access from a new pedestrian
connection directly from Kay Road. The project would be a partnership of the Agency and the
West Contra Costa Unified School District.
