OCT 24 198A <br />BOOK 58 PACT 34 <br />4) The DOT must award 10% of the States' Transportation <br />Construction work to Disadvantage Businesses. Some <br />Counties (Orange, Duval, etc.) are requiring up to <br />18% of the work to go to Disadvantaged Businesses. <br />This is causing many problems. It takes three years <br />to educate these Contractors on the requirements. <br />5) The DOT has placed a CAP on hiring new personnel.

He suggested that a letter be written to the DOT <br />requesting better maintenance. <br />BRIDGING OF 14TH STREET CANAL EAST OF ROCKRIDGE, SOUTH OF <br />FAIRLANE HARBOR <br />The Board reviewed the following memo dated 10/15/84: <br />32 <br />
