Passage of Measure Q is translating into 50 percent more — based on dollars spent — of neighborhood street issues being address this year.
The City Council when they meet Wednesday at 4 p.m. will be asked to award bids totaling $5.1 million for street work in the Shasta Park neighborhood, Crivello Estates neighborhood, Diamond Oaks neighborhood, as well as sections of Wawona Street and Locust Avenue.

The biggest and most expensive of the projects is Shasta Park

The project includes placement of asphalt concrete overlay, rubber cape seal, dig out repairs, installation of ADA curb ramps, crack sealing, and striping.

The $2.4 million project is being funded in part with $1.7million in Measure Q funds.

The three-quarter cent 20-year temporary sales tax was approved by voters in November of 2024. It went into effect April 1.

The area where work will take place in the Shasta Park neighborhood is bounded on the west by North Main Street, on the north by East Louise Avenue, the east by Highway 99, and on the south by East Edison Street.

The work taking place on Wawona Street between Union Road and Main Street as well as Locust Avenue from Wawona Street to Mission Ridge Drive will cost $1.7 million.

It includes the addition of new class III bike lanes, placement of new asphalt concrete overlay, rubber cape seal, dig out repairs, installation of ADA curb ramps, crack sealing, and striping.

The work in the Diamond Oaks and Crivello Estates neighborhoods will cost $1 million.

It involves the placement of micro-surfacing, rubber cape seal, and striping.

All streets will be addressed in the Diamond Oaks neighborhood that was built in the early 1990s. The neighborhood is east of Cottage Avenue and north of Louise Avenue.

The work in Crivello Estates will involve Azalea Drive, Ashley Way, Granite Lane and the northern end of Vasconcellos Avenue.
