Good morning, everyone.

The time is now 8 45, and as you all know, we have a little bit of adjusted schedule today to get through everything we have.

Um so we're gonna go ahead and start.

Do you have a motion?

So moved.

Moved and supported, Ms.

Irving.

Yeah, this project is being um funded through the drinking water state revolving fund um with funds that were um obtained by the water department.

Uh so that'll be the primary support.

It's also being supported by Vital Streets.

There will be water main uh replacement, and with that they also replace services to homes, though there are no lead service lines in this project.

And um they'll also do some ADA upgrades on the intersections at Kalamazoo where there's sidewalks.

Okay, thank you.

Colleagues, questions hearing none, all those in favor?

Um, item number three is a resolution approving a construction agreement with Grant Action 2.0 for Grand Valley State University, the YMCA pedestrian bridge in phase one.

This project is in support of the new soccer stadium that's going in and an agreement with Grand Action, the YMCA and Grand Valley to connect the parking ramp to YMCA.

So this is phase one in which they need to move some street lighting and make some crosswalk and pedestrian upgrades.

Moving the street lighting makes room for the future pedestrian bridge that will need fairly substantial foundations.

Great.

What's the can you remind us what's the anticipated completion date?

For the bridge.

Um they're still hoping to have it done by the spring of 2027, so they're still pushing forward.

I know they have their clearances and permits with the railroad.

Okay, and this is a privately funded project, and then the city will enter into an encroachment agreement to allow it to span the right of way.

Great.

Thank you so much.
