PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
On September 24, 2018, by Ordinance No. 9350, City Council approved the creation of project
CI1819 Eagleridge & Dillon Design and transferred money from 2018 fund balance of the General
Fund in the amount of $250,000 into Finance Account CI1819.

Pueblo. The roundabout will provide a free flow condition for all turning movements and will
eliminate stop signs. Additionally, medians, and concrete curb and gutter, striping and
appropriate signage will be installed on all four quadrants to delineate lanes and instruct drivers.
