SW1202, PUEBLO BOULEVARD DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS PHASE 2 AND BUDGETING, APPROPRIATING AND TRANSFERRING FUNDS FROM PROJECT NO. SW1199, PROJECTS TO BE DETERMINED, SW1299, PROJECTS TO BE DETERMINED AND STORMWATER RESERVE FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT OF $600,000 THEREFOR ISSUE Should the City Council establish Capital Project No. SW1202, Pueblo Boulevard Drainage Improvements Phase 2 and budget, appropriate and transfer funds in the amount of $600,000 for said project? RECOMMENDATION Approval of this Ordinance. BACKGROUND In 2011, the Stormwater Department completed Phase 1 Drainage Improvements on Pueblo Boulevard from Aster Street to Azalea Street. Pueblo Boulevard Drainage Improvements Phase 2 would continue those drainage improvements from Azalea Street to Elmwood Circle. Other than those improvements completed in 2011, there is currently no existing stormwater infrastructure in the lower basin of Pueblo Boulevard or the surrounding area. That opens this area up to severe flood potential for home owners and businesses. Phase 2 will consist of approximately 1200 LF of new 48” and 42” stormwater collection system, including several stormwater inlets, curb ramp reconstructions, and pavement millings/replacements. FINANCIAL IMPACT City funds have been budgeted and appropriated in the City of Pueblo’s FY 2011 budget for SW1199, Projects To Be Determined, and FY 2012 budget for SW1299, Projects To Be Determined. This ordinance is requesting these funds, in the amount of $272,307 to be transferred to Capital Project SW1202, Pueblo Boulevard Drainage Improvements Phase 2, as well as $327,693 from Stormwater Reserve Funds.
