The project involves realignment, widening, and safety improvements to the existing off-set intersection. This $400,000 design project is proposed to be funded jointly by the following agencies: Weld County ($50,000), Windsor ($25,000), Severance ($25,000), CDOT State Funds ($100,000), and HIRE Federal Funds ($200,000). The attached IGA is required to secure the Town of Severance funds portion. The project funding will be utilized to select a qualified engineering consultant in 2011 to complete a detailed design of the proposed improvements. Construction funding may be available in the future with CDOT's FASTER Funds. What options exist for the Board: The Board can choose to sign or not to sign the attached IGA. Without this approved IGA, design of the proposed improvements will likely be delayed, and the existing road conditions and safety conditions will continue to decline, If the IGA is approved, Public Works will administer completion of the design, and pursue options for construction funding with the other agencies involved. Recommendation to the Board: Public Works Department recommends signing the Severance 1GA and proceeding with design of this project.
