SUMMARY:
Escambia County owns and maintains the right of way along the portion of Burgess Road between Sanders Street and Lanier Drive and originally committed to contribute $500,000.00 for the cost of said portions of the project that lie within the County’s jurisdictional boundaries. The parties wish to amend the Agreement to reflect that the County has committed to contribute up to an additional $35,000 for the cost of said portions of the project that lie within the County’s jurisdictional boundaries as further provided therein.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The City has allocated $1,640,000.00 for this project through the Local Option Sales Tax Fund - Burgess Road. In Addition, a budget transfer in the amount of $200,000 will be made within the Local Option Sales Tax Fund moving funding from Sidewalk Improvements to this project. Additional funding in the amount of $700,000 will be reimbursed through Interlocal Agreements with Escambia County and the Emerald Coast Utility Authority., Escambia County will provide $500,000.00 to be used for sidewalk and drainage improvements for those portions of Burgess Road that lie within the County’s jurisdictional boundaries. The modified Agreement will reflect that Escambia County has committed to contribute up to an additional $35,000.00 for the cost of attached said portions of the project that lie within the County’s jurisdictional boundaries as further provided therein. Emerald Coast Utility Authority will provide $200,000 for the cost of utility upgrades that lie within the project’s boundaries.
The funding provided through the Escambia County and Emerald Coast Utilities Authority Interlocal Agreements are not reflected in the LOST IV Burgess Road project budget since those cost do not result in an asset to the City. Instead, as funds related to these Interlocal Agreements are expended, a due from the County or due from ECUA is booked on the City’s general ledger to track the cost. As reimbursements are received those liability accounts are reduced.
