Dellwood Street and Dunlap <br />Street are also located in the neighborhood but were reconstructed 10 City standards wilhin the past ten <br />years and therefor are not be included in this project. This report will evaluate the feasibility of the <br />proposed improvements as refined from the original report over the course of the Ingerson Neighborhood <br />Task Force meetings and Council and City staff input over the past several monlhs. <br /> <br />The general scope of work includes the reconstruction of Ingerson Road.
