The scope of the project includes pavement grind and overlay, ADA ramp reconstruction, traffic loops installation, traffic control, utility lid adjustments, and related improvements at the intersection of NE 40th Street and 148th Ave NE.
The City of Bellevue is the Administrator, and as such, Bellevue shall be responsible for all necessary engineering and other design work, permit approvals, bid law compliance, Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Local Agency Guidelines (LAG) Manual compliance, Local Agency Grant Agreements (and supplements as necessary), contracting, construction, inspection, and legal services necessary to complete the improvements.

REQUEST RATIONALE:
• Relevant Plans/Policies:
Transportation Master Plan
• Required:
Interlocal Agreements with fund transfers must be approved by Council.
• Council Request:
N/A
• Other Key Facts:
The City of Bellevue has a sidewalk construction project in design on NE 40th St within Bellevue city limits. This Agreement would facilitate improvements to be extended at the intersection of 148th Ave NE and NE 40th St, which lies approximately in the middle of the city limits of Bellevue and Redmond.
OUTCOMES:
The current condition of the pavement at the intersection of NE 40th St and 148th St is poor and existing curb ramps do not meet current ADA standards. The project would resurface the pavement, install new curb ramps to current ADA standards, install new traffic loops, and new channelization.

BUDGET IMPACT:
Total Cost:
The share of project costs will be reimbursed by Redmond to Bellevue for the actual costs to support the design and construction for the pavement overlay areas and other associated improvements within Redmond city limits. The costs will be determined at project completion when actual costs are known. The City of Redmond has estimated this to set aside approximately $275,000 for this effort, which includes a contingency for unanticipated increases of costs due to construction costs or delays in construction.
The opportunity to partner with the City of Bellevue on their capital project was not known at the time of budget adoption. Funding is available to fund this opportunity out of the Transportation Benefit District (TBD) fund that have been set aside for capital projects.

Time Constraints:
The City of Bellevue’s sidewalk project is targeted to finish design in August 2024. The City of Bellevue would need the Agreement to be authorized by June 2024 to design the Improvements in Redmond and incorporate them in their overall sidewalk project.
ANTICIPATED RESULT IF NOT APPROVED:
If the interlocal Agreement is not approved, the City of Bellevue would exclude the intersection from their project. Redmond would be required to design, construct, and manage the improvements within Redmond City limits, in the future, as a separate project. There is currently no project in Redmond’s CIP identified for this work.
