Title
A resolution authorizing the approval of an amendment to the 2015 Arapahoe County Community Development Block Grant Program Subgrantee Agreement for the Prentice Avenue Sidewalk Project to extend the project completion date
Body
Presented By:
Mark Relph, Public Works and Utilities Director
POLICY QUESTION:
Does city council support an amendment extending the completion time for the Prentice Avenue Sidewalk Project Subgrantee Agreement for the 2015 Arapahoe County Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program?
BACKGROUND:
The city entered into a CDBG Agreement (Agreement) with Arapahoe County on September 3, 2015 to complete the Prentice Avenue Sidewalk Project. The project was not completed by April 30, 2016 due to a delayed start by the contractor. This amendment will extend the completion dated from April 30, 2016 to October 31, 2016.
This project is a continuation of an on-going program to replace narrow and deteriorated sidewalks in the northeast neighborhoods of Littleton. The project involves the installation of new sidewalk and curb ramps on the south side of West Prentice Avenue between South Hickory and South Windermere Streets. The existing sidewalk is more than 50 years old with "Hollywood" style rollover curbs. The existing 31" wide, non-ADA compliant sidewalk, will be increased to 60".
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Approving the resolution and amendment will allow the project to be completed in 2016.
FISCAL IMPACTS:
The 2016 budget includes $127,500 for Community Development Block Grants. No additional appropriations will be required.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of this resolution to amend the agreement extending the completion date of this project.
