Skok, Civil Engine High Street Paving Project - 1' Sebastian - IRC Project #98 January 26, 2000 Street Interlocal Agreement with City of Taft Street DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS The Indian River County Engineering Division will be constructing paving and drainage improvements for High Street and Woodmere Road between Old Dixie Highway and the eastbound lanes of CR 512. Part of High Street is located within the City of Sebastian City Limits. While coordinating this work with the City of Sebastian, the City expressed interest in paving a small section of Taft Street (approximately 3501f) which connects to High Street. The City provided the County Engineering Division with survey information for Taft Street. Although the City has an asphalt crew, their main function is road repair, and the City lacks the man power to conduct full paving operations. The County Engineering Division has designed a pavement cross-section and drainage improvements for Taft Street. Staff has applied for and received a St. John's River Water Management District Permit for both projects. The County Road & Bridge Division is willing to construct all of the improvements for both projects. At this time, staff is asking the Board of County Commissioners to approve an Interlocal Agreement with the City of Sebastian, in which the City will reimburse the County for the construction improvements along Taft Street. An Agreement has been written, presented to and approved by the City of Sebastian City Council. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS The County Road & Bridge Division is ready to start construction for the High Street and Woodmere Road Improvements. Taft Street is approximately 400 feet from where the County crews will be working. Taft Street has been permitted with High Street and Woodmere Road for stormwater improvements. The City has approved the Interlocal Agreement. Alternative No. 1 Approve the use of the Agreement in which the County would be reimbursed for construction costs associated with Taft Street.
