FEB 22 1984 <br />BBOK 56 PACE 259 <br />Director Davis continued that he would now like to <br />present staff's thoughts and get some direction before <br />drafting the final change order. He reported that he has <br />talked to the contractor, who has given a verbal indication <br />that these costs are accurate. <br />Item 1 - Change order from Limerock to Coquina <br />Mr. Davis reported that he would like to delete the <br />limerock specification and substitute coquina rock as it is <br />much more easily available in our area than limerock which <br />has to be transported from other areas. The DOT presently <br />is using coquina on some county projects, and this would <br />result in a deduction of $67,315.91. <br />Item 2 - 20th Avenue North Extension <br />Mr. Davis stated thjat he does feel we need to extend <br />the bike path to SR 60 and there does need to be some <br />widening work where the intersection occurs. <br />Engineer Darrell McQueen informed the Board that <br />initially the plan had called for an end in the construction <br />at 19th Street, but some discussion was held in regard to <br />extending, widening and resurfacing up to the intersection <br />of 20th Avenue, which would move the bike crossing up to the <br />point of a controlled intersection. He believed this should <br />have been extended to 19th Place even in the beginning. <br />Chairman.Scurlock brought up the dangerous crossing <br />situation where St. -Helen's Catholic Church is located at <br />the intersection of 20th Avenue and SR 60, and Mr. McQueen <br />stated that he would like to have a four-way stop sign <br />placed there immediately. Later on, it will be a through <br />street, but this will let everyone get used to it first. He <br />pointed out that the best solution to this problem inter- <br />section would have been the twin pairs project, which was <br />abandoned. <br />Director Davis commented that although the DOT has some <br />substantial funds budgeted for this intersection, they have <br />50 <br />1 <br />
