body
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
On March 8, 2022, Town Council approved the School Bike Spine project construction contract, which included the installation of thermoplastic green sharrows, replacement stop signs and refreshing of crosswalk striping for the school bike route from the Town border with Ross to the County limit on Butterfield Road, and passing two elementary schools and the high school.
The Engineer's Estimate for the construction project was $205,000. The project was awarded to Chrisp Co. in the amount of $243,489. Sharrows were deleted on Ross Avenue due to upcoming sewer work, and on Cordone Drive and portions of Brookside Drive due to upcoming paving work. Otherwise, the work was completed substantially in accordance with the project plans and specifications, and fully available for public use on April 29, 2022.
The final construction cost was $213,210.
FISCAL IMPACT
The federal grant for the project was $269,000 with a local match requirement of $34,900. Staff time was used for the design and construction management, which more than covered the local match.
The grant paid for $69,255 of staff time for design and construction management, balanced by the local match of $24,455 for construction, resulting in net proceeds to the Town of $44,800.
The overall impact to the budget is approximately $79,700 due to the additional revenue and not using the budgeted local match from previous fiscal years.
GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
This project is consistent with the General Plan Circulation Element, Objective 5 - continue to improve and expand the bikeway system, Objective 6 - continue to maintain and expand the pedestrian way system, and Objective 16 - complete streets.
