A73 <br />JUL 141982 Pam 50 mr. <br />Advantages and disadvantages: <br />A. Public support; <br />B. Project coordination between the FDOT improvement and <br />the County's,16th Street T.I.P. will minimize disturbance to: <br />local merchants during the summer season; <br />C. The County may be required to assume all costs of the project <br />if FDOT cannot schedule at a later date, or the balance of <br />funds required to maintain traffic over FDOT's project budget. <br />RECONS ENDATION <br />Alternative # 2 is recommended since both roadway projects (FDOT and 16th <br />Street) can be coordinated (1) during the off-peak traffic season and (2) to <br />reduce disturbance to local property owners and merchants. Local funding which <br />may be required,if all or part of FDOT funds are lost, are available through <br />the local Transportation Trust Fund account in Tallahassee. <br />Mr. Davis noted that the merchants in this area do want <br />the project and feel the improvement is necessary, but they <br />object to closing the road to through traffic because of <br />economic impact on their business. Their concern is that <br />DOT would be constructing their project one time and the <br />County doing its project at another time and they would be <br />disrupted twice. They, therefore, are requesting that these <br />projects be coordinated to proceed simultaneously, and they <br />do not want construction going on during the peak winter <br />season. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Fletcher, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Lyons, the Board <br />unanimously accepted Alternative #2 of the <br />Public Works Director's memo dated June 25, <br />1982. <br />AMBULANCE SQUAD RADIO EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE CONTRACT <br />The Board reviewed the following staff recommendation <br />and attached memo from the Assistant County Attorney: <br />33 <br />
