11.G. OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET - NONE <br />11.H. RECREATION - NONE <br />11.I.1 PUBLIC WORKS - S.R. 60 AND 58TH AVENUE, <br />ALTERNATIVE CORRIDOR STUDY - FINAL REPORT <br />Assistant Public Works Director Chris Mora, through his memorandum of <br />September 5, 2007, presented the Alternative Corridor Study Final Report conducted for the <br />intersection of SR 60 and 58th Avenue widening. He showed an aerial view of the intersection in <br />its current state with the proposed expansion, and a view of the anticipated completed intersection. <br />Mr. Mora responded to pertinent questions from Board members, and announced <br />that the anticipated construction would be 2008-2009. A brief discussion ensued on whether the <br />proposed time frame for construction was realistic. Mr. Mora explained that 2008-2009 was <br />actually the construction date, which will take completion into 2009-2010. <br />Commissioner Davis proposed a consideration of some type of incentive for the <br />contractor to try to get the work done ahead of schedule, which could entail overtime and <br />additional cost. He desired to see that as an option in the bid package. Vice Chair Bowden <br />contemplated whether nighttime construction would also be an incentive. Mr. Mora explained <br />why nighttime construction is done on I-95 and the Turnpike, pointing out that there are costs <br />attached to nighttime construction. <br />Brian Good, Kimley Horn & Associates, in response to questions about <br />"community college lands", assumed that certain roads under the 5 -year plan, like the 66th Avenue <br />project, would be in place, and would connect with College Lane down to Oslo Road.
