Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Department of Development to reimburse the Department of Public Service for expenses associated with the design, fabrication, and delivery of materials necessary to the Bridge Rehabilitation - Sinclair Road over Stream North of Morse Road project.
The aforementioned project, which is being funded by the Department of Development and administered by the Department of Public Service, will culminate in the replacement of the culvert over Bill Moose Run, profile correction for Sinclair Road, and various other improvements. Construction of the project was slated to commence in late August, and a portion of the requisite improvements must be completed within 70 days of the issuance of the Notice to Proceed to allow Sinclair Road to reopen in a timely manner.
The established interim completion date necessitated the execution of service contracts by the Department of Public Service with United Precast Industries, LLC, and Norwalk Concrete Industries, respectively, to facilitate the design, fabrication, and delivery of materials essential to the culvert replacement. This legislation authorizes the appropriation and expenditure of monies from the Morse Road TIF Fund to recompense the Department of Public Service for those expenses.
2. FISCAL IMPACT
Funding in the amount of $58,510.00 is available within Fund 7414, the Morse Road TIF Fund. It is necessary to appropriate the needed funds.
3. EMERGENCY DESIGNATION
