1 OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER August 25, 217 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: SUBJECT: Alan Tandy, City Manager General Information AT Notable Items When the Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP) was originally authorized by the City Council, the projected borrowing amount to complete the program was $27 million. As time passed, new revenue sources were obtained and savings were realized. That amount was reduced in several steps until it became $13 million. I am pleased to advise you the number can now be reduced to $116 million. The most recent reduction is due to savings realized on property acquisition, utilities, relocation, and demolition on the Centennial Corridor. We expect additional savings in the future, and we are pursuing more than one large grant opportunity. We will note future reductions in the borrowing amount if those opportunities come to fruition. Thanks are due our TRIP partners, City and OPC property acquisition groups, Public Works, and Parsons for the continued progress. For those who endure the morning and afternoon traffic along Truxtun Avenue and Oak Street, rest assured that the end appears in sight! We anticipate the Truxtun Avenue Operational Improvements Project will advertise for construction bids within a few weeks; award a bid in November; and begin construction in January. This project will make improvements to Truxtun Avenue by adding a lane in each direction from just west of the State Route 99 overcrossing to east of Elm Street. Also, the curve at the Truxtun Avenue/Westwind Drive intersection will be modified, and the project will construct a right-turn deceleration lane for westbound traffic turning north onto Westwind Drive. East of Oak Street, the project will be constructed during the day time to limit disruptions to the adjacent residential homes. West of Oak Street, the project will be constructed during the night to limit disruptions to the adjacent businesses and mitigate daytime traffic. Also, the City will plan for a groundbreaking event for this occasion. Finally, thank you to Public Works, the Kern Council of Governments, and Caltrans for securing grant funds for this project.

2 General Information August 25, 217 Page 2 On Saturday, August 19 th, the City of Bakersfield Animal Care Center (CBACC) was host to the nationwide Clear the Shelters effort. This national event is a partnership between local shelters and NBC affiliates throughout the country to team up and promote adoptions in an effort to clear the shelter. Locally, KGET-17/Telemundo selected CBACC as the local shelter highlighted in promotional efforts that began in early August and culminated in a hugely successful event on August 19 th. The event resulted in 14 adoptions on August 19 th and over 26 total since the promotions began in early August. Many thanks go out to KGET-17/Telemundo, the Bakersfield SPCA, CBACC and the numerous volunteers and sponsors who made this successful event possible. Below are a few pictures from the event. I will be on vacation beginning Friday, September 1 st, and returning Monday, September 11 th. As always, the City Manager s Office has my contact information, and I will have periodic access to .
