VA R 16 1983 11 R 53 ow 34 To date, reconstruction of two of the crossings, South Winter Beach Road and Hobart Road, have been completed. RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING It is recommended that Alternative No. 2 be approved whereby the County would pay $30,000 of the $109,200 cost with budgeted funds and authorize a budget ammendment transferring $79,200 from - the Secondary Road Trust Fund to Account #004-243-519-34.46 (Public Works - F.E.C. Payments) to fund the unbudgeted cost. Furthermore, it is recommended that the Board of County Commissioners adopt a resolution informing the F.E.C. that unless the F.E.C. notifies the County in March of each year prior to the next Fiscal years budget adoption as to the crossings scheduled for reconstruction and the proposed cost, budgeted funds will not be available and the County will not pay the cost until .the next Fiscal year. Jim Davis explained that for the last six months, we have been communicating with the P,.E.C. about improving certain crossings in the County. The program is such that the F.E.C. simply notifies the County that they are going to begin improving crossings and will bill us for the cost. We have written back stating we don't have budgeted funds available to accomplish the 7 crossings they have proposed; however, they have written back stating that -if we don't have the money now, we can enter into a 4 -year payment plan. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Lyons, that the Board accept staff recommendation, Alternate #2, in regard to paying the $109,200 and indicate to the F.E.C. that, in the future, we need to be notified of such costs prior to budget adoption or the money will not be available. Commissioner Wodtke asked if this will all be paid this year. It was explained that payment will not be made until the project is done, which might be the next fiscal year. THE QUESTION WAS CALLED by Chairman Bird. The Motion was voted on and carried unanimously. 34
