INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA <br />MEMORANDUM <br />CONSENT <br />TO: Joseph A. Baird, County Administrator <br />THROUGH: Christopher R. Mora, P.E., Public Works Director <br />FROM: Christopher J. Kafer, Jr., P.E., County Engineef . <br />SUBJECT: Award of Bid No: 2014045 <br />69th Street Bridge over the Indian River Farms Water Control District <br />(IRFWCD) Lateral G Canal IRC Project No. 1363 <br />DATE: September 30, 2014 <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) routinely inspects all of the bridges in the <br />County. The FDOT sent a "Significant Deficiency Letter" dated October 18, 2013 which outlined <br />the deficiencies of the 69th Street Bridge over the IRFWCD Lateral G Canal that were observed <br />during their inspection of October 9, 2013. The FDOT letter recommended corrective action to <br />repair the bridge, which was constructed in 1961. <br />Staff coordinated with IRFWCD to explore a less expensive option than the construction of a <br />replacement bridge. IRFWCD determined that a reinforced concrete culvert was adequate <br />under 69th Street to handle the water from the watershed area. <br />The proposed improvements will include removal of the existing 2 -lane bridge on 69th Street <br />over the IRFWCD Lateral G Canal and replacement of the existing bridge with a 96" reinforced <br />concrete pipe (RCP) culvert. Also included with the project is installation of a 60" RCP culvert in <br />the IRFWCD Sub -lateral G-4 canal. <br />The bid opening was held on September 24, 2014. Nine (9) bids were received and opened.
