HEARING REQUIRED: No Hearing Required
SUMMARY:
As a follow up to the informational presentation about the FY 2017 - FY 2019 Street Rehabilitation Project that was presented to City Council on September 12, 2016, this item serves as the proposed final list of streets to be rehabilitated for FY 2017, Phase III. The three (3) year program to address all city streets has been broken down into three distinct phases starting on the west-side of the City and progressing eastward. Each phase will contain multiple contracts to help ensure a fair and competitive bidding process and to give the City the benefits of economies of scale. City staff has contracted with local professional engineering consultants to perform field evaluations of every street within the City and recommend which streets should be included on the annual lists for rehabilitation. Phase II and Phase III of the street rehabilitation project have been switched to accommodate Pensacola Energy’s Gas Pipeline Replacement project schedule in order to minimize potential infrastructure conflicts and allow for timely replacement of the gas lines. The field evaluation for the proposed streets for the FY 2017 Street Rehabilitation Project Phase III contains approximately 614 blocks out of an estimated 1856 total blocks city-wide that will be resurfaced over the 3-year period. Construction of the FY 2017 Phase III list is tentatively scheduled to begin in August 2017.

FUNDING:

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
