SW1908, BUDGETING AND APPROPRIATING $101,579, TO SAID PROJECT AND AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 14247 SUMMARY: This Ordinance budgets and appropriates $76,184.25 with FEMA relief fund proceeds, transfers additional $25,394.75 from Stormwater Unreserved Fund Balance and establishes the SW1908 Fountain Creek Access Road Repair Project. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION : City Council, on November 12, 2018, approved Ordinance 9359 which established Project SW1704 budgeting and appropriating $493,554 with FEMA relief funds per grant agreement PW181. City Council, on July 22, 2019, approved Resolution 14247 which awarded Project No. 19-025 (SW1704), Fountain Creek Access Road Repair project for construction. BACKGROUND : In June of 2015, the Fountain Creek experienced flooding that caused damage along the Creek including washout of a Fountain Creek maintenance access road and damage to a pedestrian trail near a recreation/picnic area. On July 16, 2015, President Obama issued a major disaster declaration for the State of Colorado that allowed for Federal relief funds through FEMA to repair the pedestrian trail and access road. FEMA created two projects for these damaged areas along Fountain Creek: Fountain Creek Gravel Access Road Washout (PW179) and Fountain Creek Recreation/Picnic Area – PAAP (PW181). City Council approved the establishment of project SW1704 which included funding for PW181 only. SW1908 needs to be established to appropriate funding for PW179. Resolution 14247 incorrectly referenced SW1704. FEMA will reimburse 75% of the actual repair costs for the Fountain Creek Access Road Repair project to the City of Pueblo. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS : $101,579.00 will be budgeted and appropriated, to SW1908 Fountain Creek Access Road Repair Project. SW1908 will have a total of $101,579.00. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION : Not applicable. STAKEHOLDER PROCESS : None. ALTERNATIVES : Alternative No. 1 – No Action Under this alternative, the repair work for Fountain Creek Access Road Repair project that has already been awarded to a contractor via Resolution 14247 will not be completed and high water levels in Fountain Creek could possibly overtop the maintenance access road berm that was washed out and cause flooding to local residences and businesses. RECOMMENDATION : Approval of the Ordinance. Attachments: FEMA Subgrant Application
