Mount Vernon Road at Vermack Road Intersection Improvements (not to exceed $400,600)
NEED/IMPACT:
The COD project, Mount Vernon Road at Vermack Road Intersection Improvement project is scheduled to begin construction in June 2018. The project consists of the roadway widening of approximately 0.30 miles, drainage improvements, sidewalk construction, waterline installation, milling and paving on Mount Vernon Road between Vernon Oaks Drive and Corners Drive. The Department of Watershed Management (DWM) will provide funding and oversight to COD for the waterline replacement of the existing six (6) inch and twelve (12) inch waterline portion of the project.
It is important to both DWM and COD to include the waterline installation on major roadway projects to ensure the work is performing concurrently. This minimizes the impact to adjacent property owners and the traveling public. In order to include the installation in the COD’s roadway construction contract, DWM must agree to pay the listed cost of completing the work.
Watershed concurs with City of Dunwoody award to CMES as the lowest overall responsive, responsible bidder for this joint city/county project per the IGA, and includes a good faith effort at LSBE participation.
