Title
Authorizing the acceptance and deposit of funds in an amount not to exceed $165,250 into the Capital Improvement Fund from AT&T for the relocation of utilities on Maumee Avenue Bridge; authorizing the appropriation and expenditure of said funds; and declaring an emergency.
Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
As part of the construction of the Maumee Avenue Bridge project, the contractor was required to incorporate the relocation of AT&T utility ducts under the bridge. Per Ordinances 56-16 and 57-16, the Division of Road & Bridge Maintenance accepted a grant from ODOT to construct the Maumee Avenue bridge and entered into the necessary contracts and agreements to complete that construction. One of those agreements was with AT&T to reimburse the City of Toledo for the cost of utility relocation. Once construction of the bridge was complete and costs for the relocation of the AT&T utility were known, AT&T was invoiced the full amount for the cost of relocation of fiber optics under the Maumee Avenue bridge. AT&T has supplied a check for the correct amount of $165,250.
