Description

Resolution approving the plans and specifications for the 800 Block of Avenue F Reconstruction.  Project # PW23-29

Background/Discussion

The Council Bluffs Community School District is constructing a new Early Learning Center adjacent to Avenue F.  The project includes improvements such as new sidewalks, driveway approaches and a drop off lane.  The existing 800 Block of Avenue F is in poor condition and is in need of replacement to accommodate the school improvements.  

 

A portion of the CBCSD work in the right-of-way of Avenue F required for the new Early Learning Center will be included in the City project.  Having one Contractor complete the work in the right-of-way benefits both the schedule and coordination of work.  The CBCSD will reimburse the City for this work.  A reimbursement agreement between the City and the CBCSD is included on the agenda for City Council consideration.   

 

The project was added to the FY23 CIP with funding from Local Option Sales Tax. The estimated construction cost is $480,200.

 

The project schedule is as follows: Hold Public Hearing February 27, 2023
Bid Letting March 28, 2023
Award April 10, 2023
Construction Start May 2023

Recommendation

Approval of this resolution for the reconstruction of the 800 Block of Avenue F.
