ITEM 8.C.
Council Action: 2/27/2023
Description

Resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Reimbursement Agreement with the Council Bluffs Community School District 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.  The estimated cost of the CBCSD work that is to be reimbursed to the City is $80,500.  Reimbursement costs will be paid on actual bid prices and quantities of completed work.    

The project was added to the FY23 CIP with funding from Local Option Sales Tax.  The estimated construction cost, including the CBCSD work, is $560,700.

 

The project schedule is as follows: Bid Letting March 28, 2023
Award April 10, 2023
Construction Start May 2023
 
Recommendation

Approval of this resolution to enter into a reimbursement agreement with the CBCSD.
