INFORMATION: Preliminary engineering (PE) is underway to install bicycle loop detectors at some signalized intersections in Carrboro. This is labeled TIP Project U-4726-DF. PE is complete except for right-of-way (ROW) certification. While this project is confined to improvements to signalized intersections within ROW, ROW certification is required for all federally-funded projects. Town staff have requested more information from NCDOT on the documentation necessary for requesting ROW certification. A response is pending.
The draft Supplemental Agreement is being processed by NCDOT. The Town has requested that it extend the PE milestone to August 31, 2014, and the construction milestone to August 31, 2015.
The resolution in Attachment A would approve the Supplemental Agreement and authorize the Town Manager to execute it.
FISCAL & STAFF IMPACT: No substantial fiscal impacts accrue to approving the resolution in Attachment A. Approximately 5 hours of staff time will be needed to process the Supplemental Agreement.
RECOMMENDATION:r Staff recommend that the Board of Aldermen approve the resolution in Attachment A.
