Director Davis summarized that the bids came in substantially <br />higher than our estimate, and our estimate was greater than 250 <br />above previous jobs. We are finding that our crews can do the <br />work at a lesser cost. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Com- <br />missioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously D(4-0) approved <br />Alternative #1, rejecting all bids and instructing the <br />R&B Division to construct the projects. <br />Commissioner Scurlock believed that possibly we should make a <br />decision either to expand that Division or find a better way to - <br />contract this work out, and Administrator Chandler agreed that we <br />do want to accelerate those projects. <br />R/W ACQUISITION 14TH STREET EAST OF U.S..#1 <br />The Board reviewed memo from R/W Agent Don Finney: <br />TO: James E.

Davis <br />Dated September 7, 1990 <br />DATE: October 8, 1990 <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />For the past several years, the County Public Works Department <br />has been communicating with the Grace LaCava Family to secure a <br />road right-of-way along 14th Street east of U.S. Highway 1. The <br />current 14th Street roadway, which serves as access to the <br />Council -on -Aging, commercial and residential land uses, and a <br />water and sewer corridor, is, in some cases, located on private <br />property. In the past, Mrs. LaCava has not been receptive to <br />donating or selling the needed right-of-way at an agreeable cost <br />in staff's opinion. <br />Recently, Mrs. LaCava passed away, and at this time, her heirs <br />are willing to sell two right-of-way parcels (parcels A and C, on <br />the attached map) to the County for $35,000.
