SUMMARY:
Funding has been secured through the Segment No. 4093341 Amended Agreement and Joint Participation Agreement. These funds were awarded for the City’s use in the design and construction of a welcome sign that will take the place of the Five Flags Plaza that was removed by FDOT during construction of the Pensacola Bay Bridge.
PRIOR ACTION:
On November 8, 2018 City Council Adopted Resolution No. 18-55 to transfer property to FDOT for construction of the Pensacola Bay Bridge Project and Authorizing and Directing the Mayor to execute a quitclaim deed to the property and an agreement providing for appropriate signage and to take all other actions necessary in relation to the resolution. The resulting agreement provided that FDOT would complete $370,000.00 worth of design and improvements for a welcome sign.
FDOT and City Staff determined that it was desirable for the City to complete the work and therefore on September 30, 2022, an amended agreement and JPA was executed to allow FDOT to provide the City with $370,000.00 for use in the design and construction of the welcome sign to replace the Five Flags Plaza.
FUNDING:
Budget: $370,000.00 (amount of original Agreement)
Actual: $370,000.00
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funding in the amount of $370,000 is available through FDOT JPA. The JPA will provide for the design fee and construction cost of a welcome sign. Adoption of the Supplemental Budget Resolution will appropriate the funds.
