RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation Concerning the Reallocation of Capital Improvement Program Funds - Joy D. Blackmon, P.E., Public Works Department Director

That the Board approve the reallocation of funds from the Capital Improvement Program to fund other priority infrastructure projects, totaling $199,871, as follows:

FROM:

Description	District	Amount	Description
Seaglades	2	$31,889	This project was canceled based on a Cost Benefit Analysis. Previous planned pond improvements were abandoned after the design options did not indicate the benefit would outweigh the cost for those improvements.
69th Avenue North	2	$19,435	Project complete
Coral Creek Drainage - West	2	$148,547	Improve flow through an existing public drainage easement and address standing water in the cul-de-sac on Yucatan Drive through an open swale that drains to Caribbean Drive. This project has been delayed indefinitely due to property acquisition issues.

TO:

Description	District	Amount	Description
Innerarity Point - Bob O Link Road, Gorham Road, Cruzat Way Drainage Improvements	2	$199,871	This is the third and final phase of the Innerarity Point Road Drainage Improvements Project that addresses residential flooding. This final phase includes drainage flow and water access improvements in the area of Bob-O-Link Road, Cruzat Way and Gorham Road. Many culverts will be replaced, ditches will be re-graded, water-access areas will be improved, and the roadways will be redesigned and resurfaced. Additional funds are needed to supplement the existing budget ($120,129) to pipe some open ditch areas and provide roadway resurfacing to Innerarity Point Road. Instead of isolated improvements, resurfacing will tie all improvements together and produce comprehensive improvements for this entire area. 60% plans are currently under review, environmental permit approval is pending, and a second public meeting will occur within the next 45 days before plans are finalized.
