BACKGROUND
The 2006-07 Median Landscape project will provide design for a raised median with landscape

Road. This effort also includes construction of the median from Oak Ridge Drive to Drayton

heavily -traveled corridor. A future construction effort to continue the beautification of the
corridor from Drayton Street to Valencia Boulevard/Soledad Canyon Road will be submitted for
funding consideration at a future date.

necessary improvements, and sent the RFP to firms on the City's Design Consultants List. Four
