DAVIS ATTORNEY AT LAW Board Certified ire City, Co�snty and Local Govent�rieiit Law ' MEMORANDUM ' TO: Mayor Brennan, Vice Mayor Arena, Council Members D'Ambra, Okun and � Paterno CC: Manager Couzzo, Clerk McWilliams FROM: Attorney Davis DATE: August 18, 2016 RE: Agenda Item — FDOT Locally Funded Agreement The following describes in detail the above referenced agenda item: As part of the U.S.1 redesign project, FDOT will require the Village to execute the "Locally Funded Agreement" for the construction of the two right turn lanes adjacent to St. Jude Church and Tequesta Shoppes. We have previously executed a letter of intent and a resolution which indicated the Village's intent to enter into this agreement. The agreement must be completed on page 1 by indicating that the Village adopted Resolution 14-16 on May 23, 2016, authorizing the agreement. Essentially, the agreement provides that the Village's estimated cost sharing for the right turn lanes is $57,936.00 This amount is to be paid to FDOT within 30 days of execution of the agreement. The agreement a�so provides for cost adjustments, either up or down. In other words, if actual costs as determined by the bid, by other project modifications, or by an audiUfinal accounting are more than $57,936.00 for the right turn lanes, the Village will be obligated to make up the difference within 40 days of being notified. Likewise, if the actual costs are less than $57,936.00 for the right turn lanes, then the Village would receive a refund upon making a request for it.
