Summary:
Summary
The City approved the complete Road Transfer Interlocal Agreement. However, when returning the signed Agreement, pages 2, 4, and the title page for “Exhibit C” were missing. Ratification of the approved Road Transfer Interlocal Agreement provides for the transfer of jurisdiction and associated maintenance responsibilities, including stormwater facilities, for certain road segments in the City of Largo. The specific segments are detailed in Exhibit A to this Agreement. Total length of the segments is 7.44 centerline miles.
Body
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 City and County 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 or County as detailed in Exhibit A. The City or County accepts all legal rights of the roadway segments that are within, and appurtenant to, the right-of-way being transferred.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no change to the funding previously approved by the BCC.
The County will make a one-time payment to the City in the amount of $370,047.96. The cost will be funded by the Local Infrastructure Sales Surtax (Penny for Pinellas): Transportation Function, Road Resurfacing and Rehabilitation Program project 004192A and Sub-project PID No. 005076A. Overall, a reduction to current and future maintenance costs will be realized due to the transfer of these roadway segments.
