M/WBE OFFICE- 2L Construction, LLC is in compliance with the City's BDE Ordinance by committing to 11% MBE participation and
documenting good faith effort. 2L Construction, LLC identified several subcontracting and supplier opportunities. However, the firms contacted in
the areas identified did not respond or did not submit the lowest bids. The City's MBE goal on this project is 16%.
This project is included in the 2018 Bond Program. Available resources within the General Fund will be used to provide interim financing until debt
is issued. Once debt associated with the project is sold, bond proceeds will reimburse the General Fund in accordance with the statement
expressing official Intent to Reimburse that was adopted as part of the ordinance canvassing the bond election (Ordinance No. 23209-05-2018)
and subsequent actions taken by the Mayor and Council.
The 2018 Bond Program funding was included in the 2021-2025 Capital Improvement Program for programmable project Sidewalks and Bicycle
Lanes (City Project No. PB0002). In order to administratively track the spending of all funding sources in one project, appropriation ordinances are
needed to move appropriations from the programmable project to the jointly funded static project. This action will amend the 2021-2025 Capital
Improvement Program as approved in connection with Ordinance 24446-09-2020.
This project will have no impact on the Transportation and Public Works annual operation budget when completed
This sidewalk project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICTS 5 and 8.

Program Fund and upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in
the 2018 Bond Program Fund for the Sidewalks FY2017 project to support the approval of the above recommendations and execution of the
contract. Prior to an expenditure being incurred, the Transportation & Public Works Department has the responsibility of verifying the availability of
funds.
