With this matter behind us, the agreement is once again presented for Council approval . ' This document has been reviewed by the City Attorney ' s office and found acceptable. The contract covers the construction of the ' improvements for the entire project both north and south of Trunk Highway 5 . In this regard, Item 14 of the contract, although able to be re-negotiated, should reflect that construction is scheduled to commence in 1990 with completion of both phases scheduled for 1992 . With this minor modification it is therefore recommended that the attached cooperative agreement for construc- tion of improvements to County Road 17 for the West 78th Street Detachment Improvement Project No. 87-2 be approved.
