The Residential Street Improvement Project – Juno & Norma - Group 18 is part of the Public Works Department’s neighborhood street rehabilitation program and is identified in the proposed Capital Improvement Program for FY 2025/26. The streets within the Juno neighborhood are located within District 2 and are bounded within Ball Road on the northern boundary, Walnut Street on the eastern boundary, Katella Avenue on the southern boundary, and Euclid Street on the western boundary.

The project will restore pavement surface integrity, improve ride quality, and enhance the walkability of the neighborhood sidewalks.
The engineer’s estimate for this scope of work is $12,500,000. The bid from Onyx Paving Company, Inc. is responsive, competitive, reflects the current bidding atmosphere, and is within available funding.
