Davis, P.E. <br />Public Works Directo , <br />-�yl <br />SUBJECT: Curbing Replacement in Rockridge <br />Street Drainage Ditch <br />DATE: February 8, 1999 <br />- Culverting the DOT 16th <br />RECEIVED <br />FEB 0 8 1999 <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />During the culverting of the 16th Street ditch in Rockridge <br />Subdivision, the DOT's contractor removed or damaged 1000 lineal <br />feet (L.F.) Of the 16th Street curbing. The total length of curbing <br />is 1800 lineal feet. The contractor is obligated to replaced the <br />1000 L.F., however, there will result many small sections of old <br />curbing connecting to the new curbing. The DOT is asking if the <br />County is willing to replace the remaining approximately 800 L.F. <br />of old curbing (40 years old) so that the entire approximately 1800 <br />L.F. is new and uniform. The additional cost to the County is 800 <br />L.F. x $14/L.F. _ $11,200. <br />ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS <br />The alternatives are to replace the additional 800 L.F. of curbing <br />or to allow the new replacement curbing to connect to 800 L.F. of <br />old curbing. The latter will not be aesthetically pleasing. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING <br />Staff recommends that the DOT be instructed to replace the entire <br />approximately 1800 L.F. of curbing at a cost to the County of <br />$11,200. Funding to be from Fund 109, Secondary Road Improvement <br />Fund ( Gas Tax revenue) . <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED BY <br />Commissioner Ginn, the Board unanimously approved <br />instructing Florida Department of Transportation to replace the <br />entire approximately 1800 L.F. of curbing at a cost to the <br />County of $11,200, as recommended by staff. <br />#firman Macht commented that this had been started about 15 years ago and now <br />it is finally happening. <br />FEBRUARY 9, 1999 <br />43 <br />BOOK D*1PAGE 316 <br />
