Sponsor Name Department: City Manager City Manager -CIP Short Title: Request for Proposal (RFP) for Cairo Lane and NW 127th Street Staff Summary: Cairo Lane is a city - owned, two -lane, two -way asphalt roadway that runs from NW 135 Street, south to the banks of a City of Opa -Locka canal, for approximately 2,600 LF. The road is the only means of ingress /egress for a number of industrial —type businesses. The roadway, however, is in decrepit condition. There are numerous large potholes, a compromised drainage system, and an expanse of impervious swale areas. The roadway floods to dangerous levels even during minor rain events, creating unsafe conditions for drivers, pedestrians and cyclists. These conditions have had negative impacts on businesses, as their customers, suppliers and employees cannot safely and effectively access their respective businesses or use Cairo Lane for transit. The condition of the roadway is a real threat to the expected timely response for emergency vehicles using the roadway. New drinking water, sanitary sewer, and stormwater sewer systems will be installed on NW 127`h Street. A new sanitary sewer system consisting of a new pump station on Cairo Lane and new gravity sewer system will serve Cairo Lane and NW 127Th Street Area. Proposed Action: Staff recommends approval in order to resolve Cairo Lane and NW 127th Street area Flooding and unavailability of Sanitary Sewer System, and drinking water issues. The project is funded by FDEP Grants and State Revolving Loan Attachment: 1. Agenda 2. RFP MEMORANDUM To: Mayor Vice Mayor Commissioner Commissioner Commissioner FROM: Kelvin L.

THE ITEM IS BUDGETED. Description: Cairo Lane is a city - owned, two -lane, two -way asphalt roadway that runs from NW 135 Street, south to the banks of a City of Opa -Locka canal, for approximately 2,600 LF. The road is the only means of ingress /egress for a number of industrial —type businesses. The roadway, however, is in decrepit condition. There are numerous large potholes, a compromised drainage system, and an expanse of impervious swale areas. The roadway floods to dangerous levels even during minor rain events, creating unsafe conditions for drivers, pedestrians and cyclists. These conditions have had negative impacts on businesses, as their customers, suppliers and employees cannot safely and effectively access their respective businesses or use Cairo Lane for transit. The condition of the roadway is a real threat to the expected timely response for emergency vehicles using the roadway. New drinking water, sanitary sewer, and stormwater sewer systems will be installed on NW 127th Street. A new sanitary sewer system consisting of a new pump station on Cairo Lane and new gravity sewer system will serve Cairo Lane and NW 127th Street Area. Account Number: 35- 5356315. Financial Impact: The project is funded by FDEP Grants and State Revolving Loan. Implementation Time Line: As soon as possible. Recommendation (s): Staff recommends approval in order to resolve Cairo Lane area Flooding and unavailability of Sanitary Sewer System issues. Analysis: The storm water system consists of a series of canals, swales, storm sewers and exfiltration systems. The existing storm water system in the city consists of a number of independently built facilities rather than an integrated network and do not provide the interdependency as well as an outlet feature to facilitate discharge to local canals system(s). Most of the drainage and storm water management within the city occurs through limited and sparsely located infrastructure and via overland flow along the city streets. Flooding problems are prevalent in the city due to the lack of adequate drainage infrastructure. The city currently experiences significant flooding during periods of light to moderate rainfall events. The roadways within the commercial and industrial areas of the city experience the highest levels of flooding incidents. These roadways subsequently become severely damaged due to the heavy traffic loads and the inundation of the roadway crowns due to flooding. Cairo Lane and NW 127th Street typically become impassable for a few days leading to major impacts for businesses and commercial land uses that are located within these corridors. ATTACHMENT(S): 1.
