Introduction
Phase I - Vision
| Phase I is the beginning of a project. The principal document involved is the City's Five-Year Capital Improvements Program (Task 5). For extensive complex projects a preliminary plan/cost estimate should be prepared for establishing the scope and the project cost estimate.
Project funding is determined early in the planning/scheduling process. Funding sources will depend on project classification and qualifications. The proposed funding sources will have a significant role in determining the tasks that will be involved in this or subsequent phases of a project. For example, if Federal funding is involved, KDOT and MARC are major players in this and subsequent phases. A very major objective of this manual is to receive permission from KDOT, subsequent to approval, for the City's Public Works staff to manage/administer Federal funded projects. |
Phase I Checklist
Task 1 - Prepare Preliminary Plans/Cost Estimate
For major projects a preliminary plan and a cost estimate will be prepared. This report will be the basis of establishing the design parameters and preliminary project cost. For thoroughfare street projects, this report will also establish the cross section, right-of-way widths, median openings, intersection geometrics, future traffic signal locations, and vertical and horizontal alignments. The preliminary plan is a valuable tool to ensure subsequent development complies with the ultimate construction.
- Exhibit No. I-1 is a sample report for 175th Street - Quivira Rd. to Antioch Rd. Preliminary Engineering Study.
- Exhibit No. I-1a is a list of the City's Standard Bid Items.
Task 2 - Prepare Feasibility Report
A feasibility report is required when an Improvement District is proposed as a method of financing all or part of a project. This feasibility report is required to have the following:
- Project description,
- A description of the proposed improvements and benefit points if applicable,
- Estimate of probable cost and the potential funding sources available for the project (Improvement District, SMAC, and City funds) including the apportionment of the costs,
- A legal description of the property to be included in the Improvement District,
- Easement and property acquisitions,
- Method of assessment,
- Apportionment of cost and
- A summary of the project and a staff recommendation.

Citizen petitions for requesting projects and/or services are an important method of determining interest. If IDs are the method for financing projects, a formal approved petition form must be obtained from the City along with any instructional information. Informal petitions are available for requesting streetlights, drainage and sidewalk projects.

Task 3 - Prepare SMAC Project Addition Study (Form)
If a proposed project was not identified by the County's Consulting Engineer, in the initial or subsequent study, a project addition request letter for a proposed project must first be submitted to the Stormwater Program Manager for approval prior to beginning the Preliminary Engineering Study. The project request letter shall include all the requirements documented in the Administrative Procedures. After the proposed project request is approved, an interlocal agreement is prepared and executed prior to beginning the Preliminary Engineering Study.

Completed preliminary plans may need Public Works Committee review and recommendation to the City Council, especially if the proposed plan deviates from any City ordinance or policy. The Director of Public Works shall make this determination.
Task 5 - Obtain City Council Approval - CIP
The City Five Year CIP is prepared annually. This permits revisions to existing projects and submittal of new projects for consideration. The Finance Department usually begins the process in September and is concluded in March of the subsequent year. During this process there are public hearings by the Planning Commission, City Council Committees, and the City Council.
Refer to KDOT's "Guidelines for Public Involvement" and Code of Federal Regulations 23CFR771 regarding the public involvement process requirements for Federal funded projects.

- Exhibit No. I-5b is a 2013-2017 CIP project revision form.
- Exhibit No. I-5c is a 2013-2017 CIP project addition form.
See CIP for current CIP.
Task 6 - Submit MARC Five Year Plan
Subsequent to City approval of the CIP, the Mid-America Regional Council (MARC) will call for new projects along with updates to the current Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). MARC produces a new TIP every other year to outline federal transportation expenditures over the next five-year period. The call for new projects and updates occur in December with the submittals due to MARC by the first of February. MARC has automated this process as outlined on their website at http://www.marc.org/transportation/tip.htm.
Task 7 - Obtain MARC Approval
Proposed transportation projects will first be prioritized by the Kansas Highway Priority Committee consisting of City Staff members. This recommendation is forwarded to the MARC Total Transportation Policy Committee for recommendation to the MARC Board.
