| BACKGROUND: |
| The Neighborhood & Human Services Department, in coordination with ECUA and Escambia County Engineering, has completed the design phase of the Lee Street Sidewalks, Drainage, and Sanitary Sewer Project to provide sewer, sidewalks, and drainage improvements along Lee Street from Kirk Street to "W" Street, as well as from West Brainerd on Shoemaker. Approximately 3010 linear feet of sidewalks will be added. Funds have been allocated from LOST III and CDBG funds. The Board is entering into an lnterlocal Cost-Sharing Agreement with ECUA for this project. Since the County and ECUA have identified funds to proceed with construction, this Interlocal Agreement is prepared to establish a budget for reimbursement funds, in a not-to-exceed amount of $502,892.18, from ECUA. After bids are received, percentages may be adjusted as needed to reflect actual bid costs instead of estimated construction costs. |
| BUDGETARY IMPACT: |
ECUA will reimburse the County for potable water and general construction costs incurred and invoiced, as outlined in the contract. County funds are avaiable in Fund 352/LOST III, NESD/CRA and Fund 129/2018 and 2019 CDBG.
