The Vine Street Parking Lot Expansion will construct an additional parking to the west of the existing lots located along Vine Street. The site is a vacant lot owned by the City. The new lot will provide 26 stalls of new parking. At the east end of the existing Vine Street parking area the trash dumpster and enclosure are frequently vandalized, requiring continuous clean up and repairs. To improve this situation, the 100 Block businesses have requested areas for two new trash compactors. The rented compactors will replace the dumpsters currently being used.
Included in the project bid were two Alternates. Alternate B includes a new concrete pad located adjacent to the new parking lot with a new 3-phase electrical service to serve a trash compactor. Alternate A uses an existing concrete pad on the east side of the east parking lot and adds a new 3-phase electrical service. Alternate A also includes removing the fencing around the existing dumpster and converting the area to two additional metered parking stalls. The trash compactors will be leased by the businesses from a private solid waste company.
Based on the bids received for the Alternates, Alternate A is recommended for award. Alternate B can be constructed as a separate project in the future, if determined necessary.
The project was included in the FY23 CIP with a budget of $250,000 from the Downtown TIF district.
