REQUEST: <br />Amend Ordinance 11 -60, the Capital Budget by adding the following appropriations: <br />Reed's Island Bridge Structural Rehabilitation - Federal $ 5,046,000.00 <br />Reed's Island Bridge Structural Rehabilitation - County $ 1,262,000.00 <br />B. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED): <br />The rehabilitation project is designed for and will be constructed to strengthen the bridge to meet current truck and lateral <br />seismic design loads, as prescribed by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The existing wooden bridge deck will <br />be replaced by a combination of wide - flanged steel beams and structural grating deck. Concrete rock anchors and <br />micropiles will be installed beneath the existing bridge foundation and abutments to strengthen and increase its vertical and <br />horizontal load resistance capacity. Lateral structural steel bracing members will be installed, in both the longitudinal and <br />transverse directions, enabling the bridge to resist earthquake design forces. Special steel coatings, in addition to hot -dip <br />galvanizing, will be applied to the structural steel members to protect and extend its service life. <br />SIGNED: <br />Department Head <br />DATE: 12 -27 -11 <br />
