BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS 1840 25th Street, Vero Beach, Florida 32960-3365 Telephone: (772) 567-8000 March 26, 2007 Tara S . Walters Florida Department of Community Affairs Division of Housing and Community Development CDBG/Disaster Recovery, Room 300C 2555 Shumard Oaks Boulevard Tallahassee, Florida 323 99-2 100 RE : Amendment Number Two Indian River County Disaster Recovery Initiative CDBG DCA Contract #06DB -3C- 10-40-01 -W14 Dear Ms. Walters, Please consider this as a request for an amendment for the above referenced Grant contract between the Florida Department of Community Affairs and Indian River County (Amendment 92) . Amendment #2 will accomplish the following: • Removal of the Rockridge Subdivision Stormwater project from the grant contract. • Reallocation of $440,695 .00 of the $2, 100,000 in Rockridge Subdivision Stormwater project funds to the Fire Station #4 project. • Reallocation of the remaining $ 1 ,659,305 .00 in Rockridge Subdivision Stormwater project funds to the Rockridge Subdivision Sanitary Sewer project. • Reallocation of $691 ,599 from the Engineering line item to the Rockridge Subdivision Sanitary Sewer project. • Reallocation of $ 175 ,000. 00 of unobligated funds in the West Wabasso Phase I water line project to address Phase II of the West Wabasso water line project. • Revision of the beneficiaries in Phase I of the West Wabasso Water Line project to more accurately reflect the individuals living in the units that were impacted. The removal of the Rockridge Subdivision Stormwater project from the contract is a result of delays with obtaining approval of Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) funding, problems finalizing the property on which the storm water pumps could be installed, and intensive environmental permitting required. In addition, there was an increase in the estimated volume of water that will have to be diverted to other locations based on the engineering design completed to date. Because of these issues, the Rockridge Subdivision Stormwater project cannot be completed within the time remaining in the Disaster Recovery Grant contract.
