The G.O. Bond program has allocated $57 million dollars for neighborhood roadway improvements.
A portion of these funds will be utilized in conjunction with proposed water, wastewater and
stormwater Revenue Bond Funds to address critical infrastructure needs.
A number of priority projects have emerged based on the analysis done by the Consultants who have
worked with the City to develop the WaterlWastewater and Storm-Water programs (Camp Dresser
& McKee Inc., CH2M HILL and Kimley Horn and Associates, Inc.) and the concerns expressed by
the community in the initial G.O. Planning meetings. In addition, a number of projects have
previously been designated for priority action but have not moved forth due to lack of funding.
The intent of this RFQ is to initiate the selection of consultant teams to master plan and design the
initial combined above and below ground projects. Consultant contracts will be brought to the
Commission for approval when funding has been identified for all design aspects ofthe project. It
is anticipated that contracts will be brought for Commission approval in February, 2000. Design and
permitting for each of these projects will be nine to twelve months and construction could commence
in early 2002.
On November 17, 1999, the City Commission referred the $92 Million General Obligation Bond
Issue to a joint meeting of the Finance and Citywide Projects Committees. This referral included
a six year implementation plan for a variety of neighborhood improvement projects outlined in the
General Obligation Bond Project list and identified as needing waterlwastewater and stormwater
improvements. This is the second group of projects identified as priority based on community input
and the required replacement of underground utilities. The G.O. Bond Oversight Committee, on
November 6,2000, recommended Commission approval of this item.
