H. <br />Information <br />Meeting Date: January 3, 2011 XX Action Item <br />_ Consent Agenda <br />SUBJECT Rural Center Grant Amendment — North Plank Road <br />DEPARTMENT Administration <br />CONTACT PERSON John Crumpton <br />REQUEST Consider Rural Center Amendment to the Grant covering the North <br />Plank Road Water Line Extension. <br />SUMMARY Lee County was originally awarded a grant from the Rural Center in <br />the amount of $128,160 for the extension of a water line on North Plank Road. This amount <br />represented an 80 percent grant for the project based on the original project budget. When the <br />project was bid, the prices came in well below estimate. A revised budget was submitted to the <br />Rural Center for a grant of $89,977.05 or 90 percent of the revised project budget. The Rural <br />Center has accepted this amended budget and now a contract amendment must be approved <br />reflecting the new budget. <br />BUDGET IMPACT The County provided the 10 percent match by using funds left in the <br />Water and Sewer fund along with the tap fees charged to the area property owners. No General <br />Fund monies were used for the project. <br />ATTACHMENT(S) Contract 02 -83 -03 Amendment No. 1. <br />PUBLIC HEARING No <br />PRIOR BOARD ACTION The Board has been involved in this project for well over a year. <br />RECOMMENDATION Approve contract amendment as presented with the Rural Center <br />
