OCT 13 .1987 BOOK 69 FACE 680 <br />PAVING OF 74TH AVE. BETWEEN SR60 AND WALKER AVENUE (26TH ST.) <br />The Board reviewed memo of the Public Works Director: <br />TO: The Honorable Members of the DATE: October 2, 1987 FILE:. _ <br />Board of County Commissioners <br />THROUGH: <br />Charles Balczun, <br />County Administrator <br />FROM: James W. Davis, <br />Public Works Director <br />9-28-87 <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />SUBJECT: paving of 74th Avenue Between <br />SR60 and Walker Avenue <br />(26th St) <br />REFERENCES: Jeff Bieber, Raymond J. <br />Antonucci, General Contr. <br />The developers of Indian River Estates Total Care Facility located north of <br />SR60 west of 74th Avenue (Rangeline Road) agreed in 1984 to pave 74th <br />Avenue (an existing County maintained unpaved road) along the project <br />frontage Q mile). They previously deeded necessary right-of-way to the <br />County for the road. Originally, the paving was to include an 8" stabi- <br />lized subgrade, 6" limeroek base, and 1i" of asphalt. The developer has <br />entered into a contract with a contractor for this work. <br />Due to recent damage to County roads from mining operators transporting <br />fill over County roads, the Public Works Department staff is proposing that <br />all collector roads be constructed with a 12" thick subgrade and an 8" <br />base. Poor soil conditions in areas along major canals also justify the <br />thickening of the road's structural section. As a result of staff's posi- <br />tion, the developer was requested to request a proposal frau the contractor <br />to increase the base and subgrade thickness. The cost to amend the con- <br />tract is $24,137.68 or approximately $3.42/sy for the one-half mile long <br />project. <br />ALTERVd'IVES AND ANALYSIS <br />Staff has analyzed the $3.42/sy price and has determined that the price is <br />fair and competitive. By increasing the road section, future maintenance <br />would be reduced and the life of the road would be greatly enhanced. <br />RMCFD lADATIONS AND FUNDIM <br />It is recommended that the County ' fund the $24,137.68 additional cost to <br />increase the base and subgrade thickness. Funding to be frau Dist. 8 <br />Impact Fee Account (balance as of 8-6-87 is $126,459.38). <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commis-sioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously approved the <br />funding of the $24,137.68 additional cost to increase <br />the base and subgrade thickness as described above. <br />38 <br />
