RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and the
Clerk of the Council to execute a Cooperative Work Agreement Extension with
the Department of Transportation to extend the completion deadline and
scope of work on Flower Street Bike Trail and Bristol Street Widening
projects.
DISCUSSION
The Flower Street Bike Trail is being constructed with Department of
Transportation Bicycle Transportation Account Grant (BTA) funds. The grant
requires that the City complete the project and submit final invoicing to
the State by April 2010. The project is currently under construction and is
scheduled to be completed by mid-February 2010.
Because the completion date of the project is close to the April 2010
deadline, the Department of Transportation is requesting the city submit a
Cooperative Work Agreement (CWA) Extension as insurance, in the event the
project is delayed due to unforeseen circumstances. The agreement will also
identify a Scope of Work change to reduce the improvement area due to
funding limitations. The City has applied for competitive grant funding to
complete the bike trail connection.
The Bristol Street Widening Project is funded through a number of grant
funds including a $971,000 Federal fund from National Corridor Planning and
Development Program (NCDP). The grant requires the funds to be expended by
June 30, 2010 or an extension must be filed by the City. The City used some
of the NCPD funding to pay for right-of-way acquisition for the segment
between Pine & Third Streets. The remainder of the funds will be used for
the intersection of Seventeenth and Bristol Streets. The Department of
Transportation is requesting that the City execute a Cooperative Work
Agreement Extension to ensure all funding is protected in the event the
project goes beyond the deadline of June 30, 2010.
