completeness.
Pr'ect No.C00666 Meacham Boulevard—Mark IV Drainage Improvements,Stormwater Capital Project-Bonds Fund
This project was a Hazardous Roadway Overtopping Mitigation(HROM)project. Meacham Boulevard east of Mark IV Parkway was subject to
overtopping and road closures in minor storms due to undersized culverts. The existing culverts were replaced with larger box culverts. Erosion
protection was installed upstream and downstream of the crossing.The project was completed August 2014.
Project No.C00779 Mercado Channel Improvements,Stormwater Capital Project-Bonds Fund
This project was a Hazardous Roadway Overtopping Mitigation(HROM)and channel improvements project.The project was located in Mercado
Channel from its confluence with Marine Creek to the intersection of 20th Street and Commerce Street.Existing culverts under 21 st Street
and 22nd Street were undersized,causing flooding of the streets and commercial properly adjacent to the existing channel.The channel also had
streambank erosion concerns. Improvements included channel widening to increase capacity and bank stabilization.Erosion control measures
were installed upstream and downstream in the channel.The project was completed April 2015.
Project No C01023 Summercrest Court to Lower Willow Lake Channel Stormwater Capital I Project-Bonds Fund
This project involved the design and construction of drainage improvements along Summercrest Drive and Briarhaven Road as well as a separate
system on Trails Edge Road.These improvements were needed to alleviate repetitive flooding in the neighborhood.The project included an
existing conditions assessment and an alignment analysis with subsequent design of improvements to meet current City standards.Construction
was completed spring of 2012.
Funding for these projects was not included in the FY2021-2025 Capital Improvement Program due to the projects already being balanced and
closed. Funding is needed to be added to cover retainage that was paid but not allocated leaving a unnatural balance in the retainage account for
this project.This action will amend the 2021-2025 Capital Improvement Program as approved in connection with Ordinance 24446-09-2020.
These projects are located in ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
A Form 1295 is not required because:This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
