PURPOSE:
A Municipal Agreement with NCDOT needs to be approved for sidewalks to be constructed on Elm Street and Yanceyville Street during construction of the Northern Urban Loop.
BACKGROUND:
During the development of U-2525C construction plans, the Greensboro Department of Transportation requested sidewalks be included within the project limits on all roadways crossing the project per the BiPed Plan. In response NCDOT agreed to construct new sidewalks within the project limits on Elm Street (east side from south of Kenneth Road to north of UnitedHealth Care's driveway) and Yanceyville Street (west side from Peach Orchard Drive to north of Loraine Road).
Per NCDOT's Pedestrian Policy Guidelines, the City is obligated to pay 50% of the construction costs of new sidewalks constructed incidental to NCDOT roadway construction projects. For U-2525C, NCDOT estimates the City's cost share at $63,755. NCDOT will bill the City based on the actual cost at the conclusion of project U-2525C construction. The enclosed agreement details the work to be complete and the terms of this payment.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The City will be required to provide local funding in the amount of $63,755. The local funds will come from the sale of City-owned property to NCDOT for this project and 2008 bond funds. Total funding for this project will be as follows:
$61,550 Sale of Real Estate
$2,205 2008 Bond Funds
$63,755
Payment to NCDOT will come from 2008 bond fund account 471-4503-04.6015. Proceeds from the Sale of Real Estate will be appropriated in this fund. A budget adjustment is needed to move the additional bond funds into this account.
