PROJECT BENEFITS, IMPACTS, AND PUBLIC SUPPORT. A. PROJECT USE AND BENEFITS. Describe below the benefits of the proposed projea Description should Include expected use of any facilities Involved and should compare current use with expected use and projected demand for use of the those facilities. The overall goal of the project is to reinforce Broadway as a major corridor by developing a beautified "parkway' that will be an area of activity and development. The project will create a sense of a visual corridor linking the central business district with Texas Tech University on the west and the Canyon Lakes and East Lubbock on the east. Broadway, today, remains as one of Lubbocks most distinctive streets as it integrates some of the most historical buildings in the area. The completion of the Broadway Streetscape Project would enhance this corridor and make it a more pedestrian -oriented facility. Benefits of the project include the revitalization of the central business district, a beautified link between Texas Tech University and the eastern portion of the city, as well as the comingling of pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, and vehicular traffic. B. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT. Provide evidence below of community Involvement and public participation In project development. Include a description of any opportunities for public participation In the process of selecting candidate projects. Numerous candidate projects were submitted by different agencies during the preparation of the FY 1994 Transportation Improvement Program. Many projects, however, did not meet the final rules for eligibility. The Broadway Streetscape Project evolved in 1985 by a citizen advisory goals committee ("Lubbock: 2005") that suggested the need for a beautified corridor down Broadway. Since this time, there have been a number of agencies involved in the preparation of the project as well as the general public who overwhelmingly passed a large portion of the local funding in the capital bond election held in May, 1993. The preliminary design for this project has been presented to the following boards and committees during this call for projects: Lubbock City Council - See Attachment '3' Lubbock Centercorp, Inc. - See Attachment '7" Lubbock Chamber of Commerce - See Attachment '8" Lubbock Urban Design and Historical Preservation Commission - See Attachment V Parks and Recreation Park Board - See Attachment '10" Lubbock Committee of Churches - See Attachment "11' Keep Lubbock Beautiful Board - See Attachment '12' TRANSPORTATION ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM NOMINATION Page 7 of 10 FORM D.

SIGNATURE OF NOMINATING ENTITY'S AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE Alton Brazell Title Nominating Entity Address City/State/Zip Code Date ATTACHMENT #1 City of Lubbock Broadway Streetscape Project Description HISTORY/BACKGROUND: Broadway, a principal arterial route, provides access to many businesses, churches, governmental entities, and Texas Tech University. The idea of a Broadway Streetscape project was set forth by the "Lubbock: 2005" goals committee in 1985. Objective number 12.3 of the recommended goals was to 'Extend a beautified "Broadway Corridor" from Texas Tech University to Quirt Ave. (Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard) as a visual and physical link between east and west Lubbock". Since this goal was established, there have been several businesses that have landscaped and beautified their property along Broadway. These include United Methodist Church, First National Bank, the Broadway Plaza, the Lubbock County Courthouse, and other private businesses. Currently under construction is the Downtown Transfer Plaza for Citibus (the local transit organization). This new facility has also been designed to coordinate with the Broadway Corridor and will include landscaping and the installation of antique style lights. PROPOSED PROJECT: The Broadway Streetscape project will be approximately 2.9 miles in length and will generally consist of landscaping and beautification of the corridor in making it a more people -oriented area. The landscaping will include the installation of trees and tree grates along both sides of the roadway. Drip irrigation systems will provide the moisture needed for the survival of the plant material. Antique -style light poles will be installed to enhance pedestrian lighting and, therefore, provide for a safer environment. The light poles will be unique to Broadway and will distinguish the corridor from other streets within the central business district. The project will provide for the construction of an arbor located at Broadway Street and Ave. Q and, with the construction of a perimeter fence, will complete the Broadway Plaza. Other improvements will include the construction of a landscaped median for approximately one block east of Ave. Q and an entrance to Mackenzie Park, one of the largest and most scenic parks in Lubbock. It is also proposed that park benches and waste receptacles be placed at strategic points to draw more pedestrian traffic. Of particular importance will be placing benches near the established bus stops located along Broadway. The current plan includes the construction of 5,700 linear feet of sidewalk with the construction of a pedestrian bridge in order to provide continuous pedestrian access for the length of the project. The proposed sidewalk will connect to a system of hike and bike trails that extends from Canyon Lake 1 to Canyon Lake 6. Once completed, it will consist of approximately six (6) miles of continuous trails separated from vehicular traffic. There will be no right-of-way acquisition required or easements needed for this project. The improvements made will be constructed within the existing public right-of-way. SUMMARY: This project is supported by the majority of downtown business owners and the Lubbock community. The completion of this goal established in 1985 would improve the quality of an infrastructure that was formed many years ago and would have a tremendous impact on the revitalization of the central business district.

There is no purchase of right-of-way involved, therefore, the City would be ready to begin work on the necessary environmental documentation as soon as the Texas Department of Transportation would allow. With preliminary environmental investigations having already been completed, the environmental assessment for this type of project should not be time consuming. It is expected that the environmental documentation and the preparation of plans, specifications, and estimates will take one (1) year. The contract letting and construction of the project should be complete within one (1) year for a total of two (2) years or 24 months. ATTACHMENT #4 City of Lubbock Broadway Streetscape Intent for TIP Placement The Broadway Streetscape Project has been presented before the Policy Advisory Committee of the Lubbock Urban Transportation Study (Metropolitan Planning Organization) on this day, October 27, 1993. The City of Lubbock has put together a project that would best utilize local revenue to complete a project that has been in the planning stages for many years. With the project having received endorsements from many local organizations, and, noting that the project is consistent with the Long -Range Transportation Plan, the Lubbock Urban Transportation Study hereby certifies that the Broadway Streetscape Project will be included in the Transportation Improvement Program if the Texas Department of Transportation approves the project for funding. This project has been reviewed by the Policy Advisory Committee and has received a rating, which makes it a high priority for the Lubbock Urbanized Area. We respectfully request that the project receive full consideration for funding.

The RTKL Redevelopment Plan for Central Lubbock adopted in 1989, and the Broadway Corridor Plan subsequently prepared in 1990, both strongly recommend streetscape improvements on Broadway as an integral part of the revitalization program. The additional financial assistance proposed would enable extensive improvements to be made in the redevelopment target area. Such a commitment will enhance the attraction of additional investors to the area in the future. Therefore, CenterCorp encourages your approval and authorization for an application for funding to be submitted to the State for the proposed improvements. Your favorable consideration will be appreciated. Respectfully submitted, LUBBOCK CENTERCO , INC. By: -rim R.
