Title
AMENDMENT TO PROJECT B-454 IN THE 2013 - 2018 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP) FOR CONSTRUCTION OF A BRIDGE ON 23RD STREET SOUTH BETWEEN 311TH STREET WEST AND 327TH STREET WEST. DISTRICT 3.
Presented by: David C. Spears, P.E., Director of Public Works/County Engineer.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve the amendment to the Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
Body
B-454 was approved for construction in the 2014 Capital Improvement Program. KDOT will provide Federal funds for 80 percent of the cost of construction and will administer the letting and the construction contract. There is a three month mismatch between the Federal fiscal year (starts in October) and the County fiscal year (starts in January). KDOT scheduled this project for letting on October 16th and requires the county to provide them with official authority to award the contract and payment of the local share within 50 days of the letting (by December 4th). In order to provide the authority to award, the Board of County Commissioners needs to create budget authority for the project in 2013.
The proposed amendment would use $37,500 from unencumbered sales tax funds in project B-443 to set up a budget for B-454 in 2013. Funds included for the project in the 2014 - 2018 CIP (budgeted for 2014) would no longer be needed for the project.
Alternatives:
Financial Considerations: Sufficient sales tax funds exist to cover the project expenses in 2013.
Legal Considerations: The Board is authorized to amend the CIP under K.S.A. 19-120
