Agenda Item Summary:
A request was received in the Engineering Office requesting the requirement to install sidewalk along Wildwood Drive per City of Rapid City Ordinance 12.08.060 be waived. A sidewalk is required to be constructed along Wildwood Drive as part of a building permit. Wildwood Drive is a paved street with curb & gutter and sidewalk has been installed along the lot to the east but there is no other sidewalk in the Wildwood neighborhood. The existing grade in the boulevard results in minor topographical constraints which may result in a requirement to incorporate a concrete c-wall with the sidewalk. The streets in the area that have been reconstructed recently didn’t include sidewalks or grading for the future installation of sidewalks due to neighborhood feedback.
