At its April 23, 2014 and July 23, 2014 meetings, the City Commission approved additional funds in the amounts of $240,000 and $500,000 to be added to the existing JPA between the City and FDOT, for utility work to be performed by the FDOT highway contractor, as part of the State Road 907iAlton Road from sth Street to Michigan Avenue project.

ANALYSIS Utilitv Work bv Hiohwav Contractor Aoreement As part of the FDOT project, a relocation of the City-owned water main system along Alton Road was required. Considering the age and condition of the City utility infrastructure in this area, staff determined that it would be advantageous to the City to upgrade the existing water main system as part of the FDOT project. ln 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 that the connecting water, sewer and stormwater infrastructure required upgrading, othenruise failure could occur in the next few years. These funds will be utilized to make these improvements. Utilitv Work bv Hiqhwav Contractor Memorandum of Aqreement This Agreement will add to the existing escrow account established by FDOT with a deposit in the amount of $500,000 funded by the City for the purpose of the construction of a new water main system on Alton Road, from Sth Street to Michigan Avenue as part of the Project. CONCLUSION The Administration recommends 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, as well as the potential need to perform repairs in the new roadway shortly after completion. The Administration recommends approving the Resolution authorizing these funds.
