Consideration of Burke Drive Grant Application City Manager Moore explained that Power Equipment Distributor is in the process of expanding their warehouse facility at the end of Burke Drive. Burke Drive is utilized by two businesses, the U.S. Post Office and the Richmond City Offices. Burke Drive is not designed for semi-truck traffic and the semi-trucks utilize the entire width of Burke Drive when making turns off of Division Road. These turning movements impact traffic flow and safety on Burke Drive and Division Road. A redesign of the Burke Drive approach at Division Road would improve semi-truck turning movements. Due to the conditions and the recommended design improvements, City Administration would like to submit a CCM: 11/21/2016 Page 2 of 4  APPROVED 12/05/2016 grant application to utilize Transportation Economic Development Funds to reconstruct Burke Drive. There is no cost to the City to submit the grant application. The City is proposing to utilize the minimum required 20% matching funds to complete the project.
