ORDINANCE NO. 2021-077
ORDINANCE AMENDING THE PROJECT BUDGET FOR THE E.
SMITH/HANNEGAN ROAD INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS FUND,
REQUEST NO. 2
WHEREAS, Ordinance No. 2018-057 established the E. Smith/Hannegan
Road Intersection Improvements Fund in 2018 granting expenditure authority to
initiate preliminary engineering for the multi -year project, and;
WHEREAS, previous phases of the project included preliminary engineering,
design, permitting, property rights acquisition, initial construction and construction
engineering services, and;
WHEREAS, it is now necessary to add to the project based budget to
supplement for construction and property rights acquisition in order to continue
with the project, and;
WHEREAS, the East Smith & Hannegan Road Intersection Improvements
Project was confirmed on the Council approved 2022 Annual Construction Program
and is item number 2 on the Council approved 2022-2027 Six Year Transportation
Improvement Program (2022-2027 STIP), and;
WHEREAS, the original construction cost and property rights acquisition cost
estimates have increased due to economic changes in market forces along with
necessary design changes, and therefore the 2022-2027 STIP estimate of $4.3
million is insufficient, and;
WHEREAS, the project previously secured $2 million of outside funding
commitments ($1 million federal Highway Safety Improvement Program funds and
$1 million federal Surface Transportation Block Grant funds), as well as $2,785,000
of local Road funding, and;
WHEREAS, additional Road funds of up to $1.015 million, including
contingency amounts, will be used to supplement the project's current funding;
