Background Information:
The Department of Public Works is partnering with County municipalities to better define right-of-way maintenance responsibility in areas where jurisdictional boundaries are shared. This Road Transfer Interlocal Agreement serves to transfer jurisdictional responsibility for designated public road segments that are within, or partially within, the City municipal limits.
The County and City agree that it is in the best interest of the parties that responsibilities associated with operation, maintenance, planning, design and construction of the identified road segments, along with any future improvements thereto, be transferred to the City. The City accepts all legal rights of the roadway segments that are within, and appurtenant to, the right-of-way being transferred.
Fiscal Impact:
The County will make a one-time payment to the City in the amount of $36,250.00, for the purpose of improving an unpaved section of Lillian Avenue. The cost will be funded by the Local Infrastructure Sales Tax (Penny for Pinellas): Road Resurfacing and Rehabilitation Program.
