RE: Ali-Baba Avenue Roadway Improvements
Request:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF OPA-LOCKA, FLORIDA, REQUESTING APPROVAL TO
AMEND THE CONTRACT OF HORIZON CONTRACTORS INC.
TO PERFORM ADDITIONAL WORK ON THE DESIGN AND
BUILD OF ALI BABA AVENUE ROADWAY IMPROVEMENT
PROJECT IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED ONE HUNDRED
AND FIFTEEN THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY
THREE DOLLARS ($115,353.00) PAYABLE FROM ACCOUNT
NO.44-814817.
Description: The City of Opa-locka received grant funds form the ARRA 2009 Stimulus Fund. The Ali
Baba Avenue Project was bid and the contract awarded to the lowest responsive bidder. The contract sum
of two hundred and twenty-seven thousand, five hundred and twenty-nine dollars ($227,529.00) was less
than the grant award of three hundred and forty two thousand, eight hundred and eighty two dollars
($342,882). This item enables the City to encumber and utilize the balance of the funds
Financial Impact: This roadway improvement is an economic stimulus project, funded through the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) through the Florida Department of
Transportation. It is desirable that the City use the entire grant amount. Additional work has been
identified within the project area for the balance of the grant amount of$115,353.00.
Implementation Timeline:
Addendum must be immediate to satisfy FDOT guidelines.
Legislative History: Resolution 10-8068
Recommendation(s):, Staff recommends approval.
Analysis: This improvement project will address some of the long standing transportation needs for this
critical collector. The sidewalks and ADA ramp repairs will provide for increased safety and better
access for vehicular traffic, pedestrians and bicycle users while beautifying Ali-Baba Avenue as a whole.
The original scope work awarded to the contractor was limited in terms of drainage repairs and upgrades.
Therefore, the balance of the grant will be used primarily to address this critical issue within the project
area.
