VI - ~d Backaround: As part of the application of the Community Development Block Grants, the applicant is required to submit a Housing Assistance Plan (HAP). The HAP details the program requirements and procedures. On September 23, 2008, the Board adopted the HAP. On December 22, 2009, a revision was made to adjust the payment schedule to be consistent with the other rehabilitation programs. In this revision, staff is proposing to delete the requirement that the bid must fall within plus or minus 15 percent (15%) of the cost estimate. There has been confusion amongst the contractors about how the awards are determined. In order to alleviate this confusion, staff is suggesting removal of the 15 percent (15%) parameter and to award to the lowest responsible bidder.

A condition of the approval is the signalization of the intersection of South 25`h Street and Cortez Boulevard. On the west side of South 25th Street, North St. Lucie River Water Control District Canal No. 8 is situated between Cortez Boulevard and North Cortez Boulevard. A consequence of signalization at Cortez Boulevard is the necessity of closing the intersection of North Cortez Boulevard and South 25th Street. This modification is essential to remove two potential conflicts. Vehicles entering the 25t" Street right-of-way could attempt to turn north and interfere with motorists turning eastbound on Cortez Boulevard. Similarly, northbound vehicles on 25"' Street might attempt to head west on North Cortez Boulevard and interfere with waiting vehicles turning east on Cortez Boulevard. A graphic representation of the proposed signalization improvements is provided (Attachment A). The developer is preparing to construct the required signalization improvements. The construction plans require the contractor to close the intersection of North Cortez Boulevard during this work at no cost to the County. During the Public Hearing held on March 2, 2010, residents expressed concern that this modification would not deter motorists from driving over the curb and that many residents believe North Cortez Boulevard is being widened to four lanes. To ensure that the proposed modifications are successful and to dispel rumors and provide accurate information, the Board directed staff to hold an informal, informational meeting with the residents. This meeting was held on March 10, 2010 in the Commission Chambers. XXX people attended. Staff answered many questions and has directed the developer's engineer on modifications to the plans to ensure the closure is successful. The proposed closure should not impose unduly on residents of the neighborhood. Besides the intersection of Cortez Boulevard and 25th Street, Stanton Avenue to the north and the 29th Street connection to Virginia Avenue are two existing and easily accessible routes into the neighborhood. Attached please find an aerial of the neighborhood showing the roadway network (Attachment B). Also attached is Resolution No. 10-058 (Attachment C). Previous Action: October 3, 2006 - Board granted development approval of Cortez Multi-Family Townhomes. February 9, 2010 - Board granted staff permission to hold a public hearing to consider closing the intersection of South 25"' Street at North Cortez Boulevard.
