CDBG Project Agreement for Pioneer Key I Mobile Home Park Reconstruction. (project Manager Butler) The City of Ocoee applied for and was awarded a total of $1.2 million to undertake a public infrastructure reconstruction project in the Pioneer Key I Mobile Home Park under the Orange County Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, a federally funded initiative. Proposed improvements include upgrades to roads, storm water management, potable water service, and sanitary sewer utilities. Construction plans are presently being prepared by Inwood Engineering at City expense, as were plans for other project components, such as reconstructing Lift Station 22 and connecting the Pioneer Key I storm sewer system to the recently constructed Pioneer Key Regional Stormwater Treatment Pond. Orange County has asked the City to be responsible for bidding the work and providing progress payments to the selected contractor as work is accomplished. Orange County will reimburse the City as payments are made. Having the City shoulder front-line responsibilities for design, procurement, and construction provides the greatest chance for success. The City Engineer recommends that the City Commission authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Project Agreement as the most efficient way for the City to make improvements to this area. 7. Approval to Amend the Lift Station 7 and SR 50 Force Main Relocation Project Inspection Contract with DRMP, Inc., to Extend the Period of Service by an Additional 200 Hours, Resulting in an Additional Fee of $12,400.00. (project Manager Butler) The construction phase of the project during which DRMP is to provide inspection services is nearing completion. Due to changes to the scope of the project, the construction phase has extended longer than expected and additional inspection hours are required to complete the work. In response to the City's request for the period of inspection to be expanded, DRMP has provided a supplemental proposal in the amount of$12,400.00 for 200 additional hours of work. I G.
