Title
Golf View Neighborhood Infrastructure Studio (B)
This item involves a presentation by the Golf View neighborhood on the final report of the Golf View Neighborhood Infrastructure Studio prepared by University of Florida Students in Spring 2016.
Explanation
In Fall 2015, the City Commission approved a request from the Golf View neighborhood for City staff to participate in a University of Florida Spring Semester Studio exploring Golf View Neighborhood Infrastructure. This effort involved staff from the City Manager’s Office, Public Works and GRU Water/Wastewater. Staff provided information/data for the neighborhood and students, met with the neighborhood and students on numerous occasions, participated on panels listening and providing feedback on student presentations and met with neighborhood representatives to discuss options for the neighborhood to address infrastructure challenges and opportunities.
The meetings with the neighborhood subsequent to the completion of the student report focused on options to address neighborhood infrastructure challenges and opportunities. The neighborhood has requested to make a presentation to the City Commission regarding the report and infrastructure challenges and opportunities in the Golf View neighborhood. At the end of the neighborhood presentation, City staff is prepared to share the options discussed with the neighborhood.
Fiscal Note
The base option including roadway milling and resurfacing is estimated at $800,000 and water/wastewater utility improvements are estimated at $400,000. The Golf View streets are identified in the second year (FY 2017) of the City’s Three Year Pavement Management Program so funding for this portion of the project is available in General Government’s Adopted Capital Improvement Program. Funding for water/wastewater improvements is available in the GRU budget.
Recommendation
The City Commission hear a presentation from the Golf View neighborhood.
