body
Submitted By: Frank Knott, Project Manager, Public Works Department
Strategic Plan Link: The City's Goal of high-quality infrastructure and facilities.
Executive Summary (General Business): The purpose of this Resolution is to enter into a Construction Agreement which allows for sidewalk improvements to be constructed on SW Galiano Road within the Limited Access Right-of-Way of Interstate 95.
Presentation Information: N/A
Staff Recommendation: Move that the Council approve the Resolution.
Alternate Recommendations:
1. Move that the Council amend the recommendation and approve the resolution.
2. Move that the Council not approve the Resolution and provide staff direction.
Background: SW Galiano Road/SW Savage Boulevard is constructed under the overpass of Interstate 95 adjacent the C-24 Canal connecting the Hidden Oaks and the Fairgreen Crossings neighborhoods. The area under the overpass lies within FDOT’s Limited Access (LA) Right-of-Way (r/w) for Interstate 95. The City, if this item is approved, will act as the construction coordinator.
Issues/Analysis: Staff has coordinated with the Florida Department of Transportation to minimize the impact of the LA r/w resulting in the Construction Agreement which allows the City to occupy 6-feet of the LA r/w for the sidewalk improvements.
Financial Information: There is no financial impact to the City. The City is exempt from the insurance requirements as it is a governmental entity.
Special Consideration: Approval of this Resolution and Construction Agreement is necessary so the City may coordinate construction of a sidewalk under Interstate 95.
Location of Project: SW Galiano Road, under the overpass of Interstate 95 adjacent the C-24 Canal connecting the Hidden Oaks and Fairgreen Crossings neighborhoods.
