Consent Item <br />Indian River County, Florida <br />Department of Utility Services <br />Board Memorandum <br />Date: October 20, 2022 <br />To: Jason E. Brown, County Administrator <br />From: Sean C. Lieske, Director of Utility Services <br />Prepared by: Harrison Youngblood, PE, Utilities Engineer, Utility Services <br />Subject: Utility Work By Highway Contractor Agreement with FDOT for the Extension and <br />Relocation Services of Utility Main Lines for the Interchange at 1-95 and Oslo Road <br />Background: <br />The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is planning to construct an interchange for 1-95 at Oslo <br />Road. The subject interchange is to begin in the summer of 2023. As part of the interchange, FDOT is <br />relocating utility services located near the intersection of Oslo Road and 82nd Avenue as well as <br />constructing a new water main, force main, and re -use main to serve the west side of 1-95. <br />Analysis: <br />Indian River County Department of Utility Services (IRCDUS) staff has been working with Kimley-Horn & <br />Associates (KHA) to design the water main, force main, and re -use main extension and relocations needed <br />in order for FDOT to construct the interchange. Staff is of the opinion that the subject work should be <br />performed by the same contractor doing the roadway and interchange construction. Therefore, staff <br />requested FDOT prepare an agreement where the utility work will also be performed by the prospective <br />highway contractor. <br />Funding: <br />Funding in the amount of $1,250,000.00 for the utility extension is available in the Impact Fee/WIP/1-95 <br />Interchange at Oslo Road account, number 472-169000-23501, and $1,176,624.87 for the utility <br />relocation is available in the Utilities/WIP/1-95 Interchange at Oslo Road account, number 471-169000- <br />23501. The relocation work will be funded from Utilities operating capital funds, which are from the <br />fund balance. Utilities operating funds are derived from water and sewer sales. Funds for the new mains <br />are derived from Utilities capital funding. Utilities capital fund revenues are generated from impact fees. <br />The new growth that is expected as a result of the interchange expansion will benefit from the <br />construction of the new mains. <br />Description <br />Account Number <br />Amount <br />Utilities/WIP/1-95 Interchange at Oslo Road <br />471-169000-23501 <br />$1,176,624.87 <br />Impact Fee/WIP/1-95 Interchange at Oslo Road <br />472-169000-23501 <br />$1,250,000.00 <br />Total <br />$2,426,624.87 <br />Page 16f� <br />
