MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 14. 1999
TO: The Honorable Mayor and Hoard of City Commissioners
FROM: David A. Wheeler,
Assistant City Engineer/Utilities Director
SUBJECT: Joint Participation Agreement with
The State of Florida Department of Transportation
Many of the drainage improvements proposed for the intersection of Bluford and Orlando
Avenues and along Taylor and Franklin Streets fall within the jurisdiction of the Florida
Department of Transportation's (FDOT) right-of-way for State Road 439. These two areas have
been identified in the Capital Improvements Projects program for repair. Both projects were
included in the Group 2 projects.
In mid year of 1998, PEC, Inc. completed design on the Bluford/Orlando Avenue improvements
and submitted them to the FDOT for permitting approval so that construction could proceed in
the fall of last year. While in the permitting review stage, FDOT staff proposed funding
assistance from FDOT as an offer of good faith. The City was going to solve some drainage
issues in this intersection that were partially as a result of FDOT drainage problems within their
right-of-way. In addition, the FDOT problems were not high enough on their priority list to
warrant inclusion in their five year plan. When we proposed the addition of the Taylor/Franklin
Street project, FDOT stall felt the overall project was significant enough to warrant funding
assistance.
FDOT has proposed funding assistance to the City in the amount of$100,000 to aide in the
construction of the improvements included in both projects. The FDO'l' funds will come from
their fiscal year budget 1999/2000 and be reimbursed to the City upon completion of the two
construction projects. The amount of participation was arrived at by comparing contributing
drainage areas and cost of construction within each right-of-way. The current estimate of
construction is approximately $400,000.
THE PRIDE OF WEST ORANGE "5C�g
Although the obtaining of this unexpected funding assistance has delayed the construction of the
Bluford/Orlando Avenue project, Staff was not willing to turn down the FDOT offer based upon
the amount of the offcr. The Franklin/Taylor Street project is currently in design and should he
ready to go to permitting in February.
I recommend that the City Commission accept the offer of$100,000 in funding assistance from
the State of Florida Department of'I ransportation and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to
execute the Joint Participation Agreement.
