ANALYSIS <br />The Phase 3 water expansion project will involve constructing approximately 41.5 miles of various <br />sized water main, services and fire protection at an estimated cost of $6,135,000.00 (based on <br />proportionate equivalence to Phase 2 estimate), compared to an estimated $2,969,630.00 for 23 <br />miles of facilities constructed in Phase 1 and $5,888,376.80 for 39.1 miles of facilities presently <br />being constructed in Phase 2. Phase 3 consists of 1,700 existing homes compared to 700 existing <br />homes in Phase 1. Staff has negotiated with Carter Associates, Inc. to survey the project for <br />$151,976.00 ($3,662 per mile -see attached contract). <br />By comparison, Phase 1 was surveyed for $72,500.00 ($3,152 per mile), and Phase 2 was surveyed <br />for $145,202.00 ($3,714 per mile). Staff believes that Carter Associates, Inc.'s proposal is <br />reasonable considering that Phase 3 has 180% more pipe and 211% more existing features (i.e., <br />driveways, wells, etc. that must be incorporated into the design) than Phase 1. <br />RECON—BUNDATION <br />The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends the Board of County Commissioners <br />approve the attached contract for survey services in the amount of $151,976.00 and authorize the <br />Chairman to execute same, as presented. <br />Account No. Account Name Amount <br />47240-169-370.00 Utility Impact Fee Fund $27,750.00 <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Stanbridge, the <br />Board unanimously approved the Specific Work <br />Authorization for Sebastian Water Expansion Phase <br />III with Carter Associates, Inc. in the amount of <br />$151,976 and authorized the Chairman to execute <br />same, as recommended by staff. <br />WORK AUTHORIZATION IS ON FILE IN THE <br />OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />SEPTEMBER 28, 1999 <br />-144- <br />
