RECOMMENDATION:
Recommendation Concerning Approving the Interlocal Cost-Sharing Agreement between Escambia County and the Emerald Cost Utilities Authority (ECUA) for the Navy Point Sewer Expansion and Drainage Improvement Project - Phase III - Joy D. Blackmon, P.E., Public Works Department Director

That the Board take the following action:

A. Approve the Interlocal Cost-Sharing Agreement between Escambia County and ECUA, in the amount not to exceed $500,000, for the Navy Point Sewer Expansion and Drainage Improvement Project; and

B. Authorize the Chairman or Vice-Chairman to execute the Agreement and all related documents as required to implement the project.

This is a joint project with Emerald Coast Utilities Authority (ECUA) in the Navy Point area. ECUA is installing sewer in the Navy Point area and Escambia County would like to partner with ECUA to upgrade the storm sewer that is undersized, in poor condition, and in some locations unsafe to pedestrians. The proposed County improvements include: milling and resurfacing existing roadways outside of ECUA's project area, replacing broken curb, removal and replacement of undersized and/or broken storm pipes, and up-sizing existing curb inlets. ECUA will provide the initial payments, and the County will reimburse ECUA through this Interlocal Cost-Sharing Agreement.

On June 3, 2014, ECUA opened bids for this project. The Interlocal Cost-Sharing Agreement must be approved by the BCC and the ECUA Board in a timely manner so that the bids do not expire.
