Explanation

This ordinance authorizes the expenditure of up to $100,000.00 for construction inspection for two (2) capital improvement projects -- ADA-compliant Ramp Installation and Resurfacing. These projects will be undertaken in 2004 and pre-engineering inspection activity is expected to be undertaken by the Transportation Division beginning in October 2003 to assist in the generation of bid specifications prior to the projects being advertised for formal competitive bidding. These pre-engineering and inspection costs can be capitalized. In previous years inspection expenditures were authorized simultaneous to construction expenses after bids were received and the construction contract award recommendation formulated.

These projects are budgeted in the Transportation Division's 2003 capital improvement program within the Resurfacing project in the 1995, 1999 Voted Streets and Highways Fund.

($100,000.00)
