2. Add an 8-foot wide sidewalk with curb and gutter along:
• East side of Davis Boulevard leading to the North Pole Elementary School.
• West side of Snowman Lane in-between 4th and 5th Avenues.
• North side of 3rd Avenue in-between Snowman Lane and Santa Claus Lane.
• East side of Santa Claus Lane in-between 2nd Avenue and Cross Way.
