SUBJECT: Revision to Adopted 1999 Annual Construction Program —
Addition of Construction Projects
MAY
PETE KREMEN
COl1NTV PXI :- ,I -MVF
The 1999 Annual Construction Program was adopted as Resolution No. 98 -075 by the County
Council on November 24, 1998. Within the program were several large projects receiving
matching federal funds for design and construction activities.
With recent changes in permitting requirements under the Endangered Species Act, Whatcom
County will not be able to do most federally funded projects during the 1999 construction season.
Delays in receiving approvals to proceed with construction will cause us to.miss the good weather
months for construction. Unfortunately, other agencies are experiencing the same difficulties.
In order to take advantage of this construction season, and to bid projects out to local contractors,
we propose to add several projects to the existing adopted annual construction program for 1999.
These projects require minimal engineering, little or no right -of -way acquisition, nor permits which
require significant time to receive. Doing these projects also fills the need to structurally overlay
several arterial roads that are showing signs of wear and tear.
Proposed additional projects include the structural overlay of Northwest Drive (Bellingham city
limits to W. Axton Road), Grandview Road (Interstate 5 to Enterprise Road), Hannegan Road (in
the vicinity of Beard Road), and the addition of turn lanes at the James/Telegraph intersection.
Also, we propose to perform the structural overlay of Rainbow Road (Mountain View Road to
Kickerville Road), which is listed as Item 16 of the adopted program, but was only slated for
engineering and not construction.
In not achieving construction of the federally funded projects this year, sufficient local funds exist
within the 1999 Road Fund budget to perform the additional work outlined above. We will stay
within the limits of the total program budget, and also within the limits of the budgeted local funds
for 1999.
We therefore recommend that the Council amend the adopted 1999 annual road construction
program per the attached resolution, which requires introduction and a public hearing prior to
amendment of the program.
Please contract Bruce Mills if you have questions.
Thank you.
