SEP 1.9 1984 BOOK 58 FA,F 50 ETITION TO PAVE 16TH STREET BETWEEN KINGS HIGHWAY AND 51ST AVENUE The Board reviewed the following memo dated 9/11/84: TO: The Honorable Members of DATE: September 11, 1984 FILE: the Board of County Commissioners THROUGH: Michael Wright, County Adminstrator SUBJECT: petition to Pave 16th Street between Kings Highway and 51st Ave FROM: James W. Davis, P.E. REFERENCES: D. Michael Carpenter,, Ed Schlitt, Public Works Director Realtors, to Michael Wright, County AaTLinistrator dated Sept 6, 1984 DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS The petition has been submitted for the paving of 16th Street from Kings Highway to 51st Avenue. The area benefiting from the improvements is approximately 149.02 acres. Property owners which own approximately 103.05 acres have signed the petition, which computes to 69.150 of the benefited owners. On July 11, 1984, the Board of County Commissioners approved paving the road in the existing 30' right-of-way and to save all trees possible. The Schlitt Agency has requested permission to retain the services of Beindorf, Associates, Consulting Engineers, to design the road improvements immediately and contract out the construction improvements so that the project would not have to be delayed until the 20 projects for which previous petitions were submitted are completed. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS Beindorf and Associates would design the project and prepare the preliminary assessment roll. County staff would then schedule, advertise, and prepare for the Public Hearing. Engineering costs will be paid by the Schlitt Agency. If a Contractor constructs -the paving, certain charges such as overhead, profit, and equipment charges will result in a higher direct assessment to the County. Considering the 50% property owner/50o County assessment for a collector road, the County share could be $10,000 greater than the direct cost if the County Road and Bridge Department did the work. The project is estimated to cost approximately $70,000 if contracted out. Direct cost if the County did the work would be approximately $45,000. A .saving to the County would result in the County not having to perform the Engineering and field work by County personnel, and less maintenance on the road. The Ed Schlitt Agency has agreed to consider paying the added direct cost that the County would have for contracting out the work so that the Project could be expedited. RECOMMENDATIONS AND FU14DING It is recommended that the Board of County Commissioners approve the request to have Beindorf and Associates engineer the 16th Street improvements�a.nd that the work be contracted out. No funding considerations are presented for approval, since this will be considered once bids are received. 28
