HomeMy WebLinkAboutEmergency Item - Relocation of Progress Energy Distribution System on Moore Road at the Intersection of Maguire Road AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET Meeting Date: November 6, 2007 Item # Contact Name: Contact Number: David A. Wheeler, P.E. 407 -905-3100, ext. 1505 Reviewed By: Department Director: City Manager: ~c~ Subject: Relocation of Progress Energy Distribution System on Moore Road and at Intersection with Maguire road Background Summary: The City is joint venturing with Unicorp, Inc. on the improvements to the intersection of Maguire Road and Moore Road. The City's portion of those improvements include a right turn lane from Maguire Road onto Moore Road with an acceleration lane on Moore Road and new traffic signal at the intersection. Unicorp's portion of the improvements include turn lanes into their commercial development located at the southeast corner of the intersection. Also, as part of the project, Progress Energy has relocated two of the transmission poles on Moore Road just east of the intersection and needs to relocate the distribution system in the same area and across the southern and western sides of the intersection. The portions of the relocations at the intersection will need to be installed underground to provide separation from the new mast arm traffic signal poles. The funding for the project will come from Unicorp to pay for their turn lanes and a portion of the City's turn lanes, from the City to pay for a portion of the City's turn lanes and a portion of the traffic signal, from Grimes Office Park for a portion of the traffic signal, and from Plantation Grove Shopping Center phase 3 to pay for a portion of the traffic signal and improvements on Moore Road. All of the developer contributions and the City's commitment were through Developer Agreements negotiated with their respective developments. Under the Maguire Road project completed a few years ago, some of the funds were expended for the Moore Road improvements and the strain pole traffic signal. The City waited to do the remainder of its improvements until the southeast corner developed so as to pair projects together and realize some savings. Unicorp, Inc. is building all of the improvements, except the new traffic signal and the City is reimbursing them from collected Road Impact fees from their development. The relocation of the overhead distribution system is being funded by Progress Energy. The underground installation at the intersection is being funded by Progress Energy and the City. The City is paying for the cost differential from overhead to underground relocation. The estimated cost to underground the distribution system at the intersection has been negotiated at $75,000, a significant decrease from the original $120,000 cost estimated by Progress Energy. The work will start immediately upon approval by the City. Issue: The City is reimbursing Progress Energy for the cost differential between overhead to underground relocation of the distribution system at the intersection of Maguire and Moore Road Recommendation: The Engineering and Community Development Departments recommends the approval of the reimbursement to Progress Energy of $75,000 for the underground relocation of the distribution system at the intersection of Maguire and Moore Road. Attachments: Progress Energy Cost Agreement with attached memorandum from Jim Cowling of Progress Energy Financial Impact: The Road Impact fund will encumber funds to reimburse Progress Energy as part of this Capital Project as listed in the Five Year CIP.

Relocation Project ----- Original Message From: Cowling, James H <James.Cowling@pgnmail.com> To: Frank, Robert Sent: Wed Oct 31 14:29:31 2007 Subject: McGuire Rd. Relocation Project Hi Rob. To confirm our conversation, Progress Energy Florida has thoroughly reviewed this project and will perform this relocation work for a sum of $75,000.00. To facilitate the City, if it poses a hardship for the City to pay the entire amount up front before the job is scheduled, as is the normal practice, I would accept a payment of $60,000 to commence our work with the remaining $15,000.00 to be paid no later than 30 days from the conclusion of the Progress Energy work. Please let me know if you are ready for us to proceed by performing our final engineering of this project, or if you have any further questions or concerns we need to discuss. Thank you for your attention to this matter. James H. "Jim" Cowling, PE, CEM Distribution Operations Manager - Winter Garden Progress Energy Florida, Inc. 452 E. Crown Point Rd.
