Title

Consider and take action on a resolution authorizing an amendment to the Interlocal Agreement with Galveston County to specify funding terms and project scopes for the Dickinson Avenue Project and other road improvement projects (Director of Budget and Project Management)

 

Background:

Approval of this resolution will amend the existing interlocal agreement with Galveston County, adding the League City Parkway Intersections at I-45, Walker Street and SH 3 as eligible projects. On October 23, 2018, the City authorized an interlocal agreement with Galveston County to provide funding in amount not to exceed $10,480,000 towards various road improvement projects located in League City. The Dickinson Avenue Reconstruction Project (CIP#RE1702C) was identified as an eligible road improvement project in League City and it was agreed that the County will reallocate any remaining funding to other eligible road improvement projects in League City.

 

This amendment specifies the allocation of remaining funds from the 2018 Galveston County G.O. Bond Program (which included Dickinson Avenue) to other projects as defined in Exhibit A of the Amendment to the Interlocal Agreement. In addition to funding, the County will be responsible for the selection of the consultants needed to complete the design. The City shall be responsible for project management and any project costs that exceed $10,480,000.

The Parties agree to make the following improvements to the intersection of SH 96 and West Walker Street: (i) extending the Eastbound to Northbound left turn storage at Walker Street; (ii) adding a right hand turn lane with ample storage for Eastbound to Southbound traffic at Walker Street; (iii) correcting the north-south crossing grade, including relocating the in-gutter inlet located where Walker Street crosses SH 96 on the South side of the intersection.  If funding allows, the Parties will extend the westbound to southbound left turn lane an additional 100 feet to create a 150-foot northbound to eastbound right turn lane.

The Parties agree to make the following improvements to the intersection of SH96 and SH3: (i) the addition of Eastbound and Westbound left turn lanes on SH96 at SH3 and (ii) corresponding improvements to the existing traffic signal.
