BACKGROUND The Department of Public Works, in an effort to serve all residents of the City of Miami, has determined that it is now appropriate and in order for the City Commission to ratify the City Manager's decision to increase the contract dated January 13, 1994 between the City of Miami and Horizon Contractors, Inc. for construction of Allapattah Community Development Street Improvement - Phase V, B-2987 in the amount of $374,011.50 on January 13, 1994. Generally, the project consisted of street improvements to NW 29 Street between NW 23 Avenue and NW 27 Avenue, NW 25 Avenue between NW 28 Street and NW 30 Street, and NW 24 Avenue between NW 18 Terrace and NW 20 Street that included clearing and grading, construction of asphaltic pavement, concrete sidewalk, and curb and gutter and construction of storm drainage facilities. Additional funds are needed for the reconstruction of the Curtis Park parking lot that abuts NW 24 Avenue including limerock base, one inch asphalt pavement and concrete sidewalk and curbing. The reconstruction of the existing parking lot is necessary to meet the new improvements in NW 24 Avenue. It is expedient for the safety and welfare of the surrounding neighborhood and since there are funds available for the work, it is important that we allow Horizon Contractors, Inc. to proceed with the reconstruction of the Curtis Park parking lot. The cost of the additional work is $25,000.00. Sufficient funds for the increase in contract for aforesaid additional work are available from monies already appropriated in the City's C.I.P. Ordinance 11139 under Project 341181. 94- �o 1D CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO FILE DATE September 12, 1994 FiLEB-4552 SUBJECT EMERGENCY FINDING A 6f� Allapattah Community Development Street Improvement .
