Home My WebLink AboutItem #06 Approval of Central Park Boat Dock Construction 1--- - center of GOOd Lt ~ AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET Meeting Date: November 17, 2009 Item # lo Contact Name: Contact Number: AI Butler 407 -905-3100 ext 1543 Reviewed By: Department Director: City Manager: ~'--- Subject: Central Park boat dock extension - District 1 (Commissioner Hood) Background Summary: An observation pier was recently completed on Lake Moxie in the City's Central Park. As part of the next phase of improvements to that park, the City plans to construct a sand-bottom, non-motorized boat ramp adjacent to the pier. The observation pier is too high above the water to serve effectively as a boat dock, so staff solicited bids from dock construction companies to build and install a 16 ft. by 8 ft. floating platform with aluminum ramp at the end of the pier. The floating dock, which would be placed longitudinally across the end of the higher structure, would both eliminate the ability for illicit divers to use the higher platform and provide a means for boating users to access their vehicles from the structure. (They would otherwise have to wade to the boat after launching.) The cost proposal is $7,296.00 for the floating platform and gangway, plus an additional $500 to modify the existing pier to mount the gangway. The price for the work is based on award of the similar construction at Prairie Lake Park. Issue: Should the City of Dcoee execute the proposed Project Agreement with Doherty Brothers Marine Construction, Inc., to construct a floating boat dock at Lake Moxie in Central Park? Recommendations The City's Engineering and Parks & Recreation departments recommend that the City Commission authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Project Agreement as the most efficient and cost-effective way for the City to improve boating facilities at Lake Moxie in Central Park. The specific improvement to authorize is to construct and install a 16' x 8' floating dock with a 4' x 16' hinged aluminum ramp at the end of the existing Central Park observation pier @ $7,796.00. Attachment: . Proposed Project Agreement between the City of Dcoee and Doherty Brothers Marine Construction, Inc. . Diagram showing proposed improvement. Financial Impact: The $7,796.00 cost of the improvements at Central Park would be paid from the $10,709 in funds remaining in the original FY 2009 allocation for construction of the affected boardwalk and observation pier under Job No. 30501.
