Parker, District 4 STAFF REPORT TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners FROM: Robert B. Zaitooni, P.E., Deputy Director Public Works/City Engineer DATE: May 18, 2004 RE: Intersection Improvements-Bluford Avenue at Orlando Avenue ISSUE: Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners approve and authorize Professional Engineering Consultants (PEC) to proceed with the final design and permitting of the improvements at the intersection of Bluford Avenue at Orlando Avenue for$43,801.00 from Impact Fees? BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: This is an approve CIP project for FY 2003-04. This phase of the project consists of design survey, determination of right-of-way needs, final design, and permitting for the intersection improvements at the intersection of Bluford Avenue and Orlando Avenue. The tentative scope of work as outlined in the attached work order, includes widening on Orlando Avenue to 3 lanes (2 outbound and 1 inbound), curbs, and sidewalks. Potential improvements to northbound Bluford Avenue approach to meet future northbound needs. More importantly, the project will address and eliminate the reoccurring drainage problem at the southeast corner of the intersection. This quadrant of the intersection has no drainage outfall and subject to frequent flooding. In order to address this problem, it may become necessary to acquire a small triangular right-of-way area to incorporate a drainage structure and construct curb& gutter. The improvements will be designed to use the new traffic signal currently under construction. The design of this signal anticipated the intersection modifications. The construction phase will begin at the beginning of the fiscal year 2004-05. Funds for the project are available from the Impact Fees. RECOMMENDATION: Staff respectfully requests the Honorable Mayor and City Commission approve$43,801.00 from the Impact Fees for this project; and authorize PEC to proceed with the final design and permitting of the intersection improvements.
