SE 8th Ave Stormwater
Phase II
Back in 2022 the State awarded the City a $240,000 grant for phase II of a three-phase
stormwater project for SE 8' Avenue. Prior to the survey for phase II, it was decided to
complete the survey for phase III as well, thereby saving on some remobilization costs.
On Friday, February 161, staff along with Connie Vanassche met with Kimley-Horn to discuss
moving forward with Phase II because we were facing some grant deadlines. During that
meeting it was determined that we would experience additional construction and material costs
to complete the project.
The current total estimated cost to complete SE 81 Avenue project is $410,000 adding in a
$3,000 cushion. The difference between the total cost of $410,000 and the grant dollars
$240,000 is $170,000. I am requesting that we use American Recovery Act funds to make up
the difference since this is a stormwater project.
