Body

Recommended Action:

Recommendation

Motion to approve Resolution No. 128-18 approving a Highway Maintenance Memorandum of Agreement (HMMOA) with the State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for construction of improvements on Swinton Avenue from S 10th Street to N 4th Street, FDOT Financial Project ID No. 438389-1

 

Body

Background:

In 2014, the City applied for and received a grant from the Palm Beach County Transporation Planning Agency (TPA) to provide for improved bicycle lanes, pedestrian detectors and drainage on Swinton Avenue from SE 10th Street to N. 4th Street.  The design and construction management of the proposed improvements for the Swinton Avenue project are being performed by the FDOT.  The project is in the final design phase by FDOT, and includes providing new five-foot paved shoulders to serve as bicycle lanes along both sides of the corridor, upgrading signage and pavement markings, replacing pedestrian detectors, adding drainage improvements including exfiltration trenches, swales and impacted drainage inlets, and adding sidewalk from S. 10th Street to S. 2nd Street. The project limits are on Swinton Avenue from S. 10th Street to N. 4th Street.

 

This FDOT project will provide resurfacing and minimal improvements between N. 2nd Avenue and S. 2nd Avenue, as the City has a seperate project to improve at the intersection of Swinton Avenue and Atlantic Avenue between N. 2nd Avenue and S. 2nd Avenue. The Swinton and Atlantic intersection project is budgeted in the City's FY 18/19 Capital Improvement Program.

 

The attached Highway Maintenance Memorandum of Agreement between the FDOT and the City will allow the FDOT to have their contractor perform the construction of the above-mentioned improvements. This project is planned to complete design in 2019 and to begin construction in 2020.  An initial public outreach meeting has been planned by FDOT for November 27, 2018, exact details will be forthcoming.

 

City Attorney Review:

City Attorney approves as to form and legal sufficiency.

 

Funding Source/Financial Impact:

This project is a Palm Beach County Transporation Planning Agency (TPA) funded project; the Federal Contribution for design and construction is estimated at $3,196,982.  The City has budgeted $200,000 for potential non-participating items, such as right of way maintenance, optional engineering work and MOT plans in account number 334-41-340-541.63-17 and City costs for FY 18/19 will not exceed this cost.

 

Timing of Request:

This request is time-sensitive in maintaining FDOT’s project schedule.
