BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: July 15, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: John Hofstad
SUBJECT: Request to Advertise RFB for Tanglewood/Overbrook MOEX Grant
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
BCC DISTRICT: 4
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request for approval to advertise the Request for Bids (RFB) and to
administer the construction of Grant Agreement No. S0697 with the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) for improvements to the Tanglewood and Overbrook
Stormwater Basins. The construction of this project is being funded by an appropriation from
funds received from the Deep Water Horizon Oil settlement. FDEP is contributing $414,432.00
towards the construction of this project.
BACKGROUND: As a result of a settlement related to the Deep Water Horizon Oil Spill, FDEP
has allocated funds to assist with stormwater improvement projects. FDEP staff has identified
two projects from the Gap Creek Watershed Water Quality Study (performed in 2008) for
funding with this agreement. The two projects include improvements to the Tanglewood
Stormwater Basins and the Overbrook retention area. Funding provided from FDEP is required
to be strictly utilized for project construction.
Final plans have been completed by the Northwest Florida Water Management District (WMD)
and have been submitted to Public Works. Once all permits are received, staff will advertise the
RFB and both projects will be bid together with an anticipated construction duration of 180 days.
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove the request to advertise the RFB and administer the
construction contract for Grant Agreement No. S0697 for the Tanglewood and Overbrook
Stormwater Basin Improvements.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve the request to advertise the RFB and administer the
construction contract for Grant Agreement No. S0697 for the Tanglewood and Overbrook
Stormwater Basin Improvements.
