Commission Memorandum— FDOT Agreements for Alton Road from 5th Street to Michigan Avenue April 23, 2014 Page 2 of 2 ANALYSIS Utility Work by Highway Contractor Agreement As part of the FDOT project, relocation of the City-owned water main system along Alton Road is required. Considering the age and condition of the entire City utility infrastructure, staff determined that it would be advantageous to the City to upgrade the existing water main system as part of the FDOT project. In addition, the Project will also include upgrading the water main laterals that service the side streets along the Project corridor. During construction it was determined the connecting water, sewer and stromwater infrastructure required upgrading or failure could occur in the next few years. These funds will be utilized to make these improvements. Utility Work by Highway Contractor Memorandum of Agreement This Agreement will add to the existing escrow.account established by FDOT with a deposit in the amount of $240,000 funded by the City for the purpose of the construction of new water main system on Alton Road Avenue from 5th Street to Michigan Avenue as part of the Project. CONCLUSION The Administration strongly believes that the proposed stormwater drainage and water main improvements be constructed with the Alton Road improvements in order to reduce the risk of failure of the water, sewer and stormwater system. The Administration recommends approving the Resolution authorizing these funds JLM/ETC/JJF/BAM/DCS T:\AGENDA\2014\April\FDOT additional funding Alton Road from 5th Street to Michigan Avenue-Memo.docx i
