RESOLUTION – BEAVER ROAD DRAINAGE SYSTEM
Commissioner Gromaski offered the following resolution and moved for its adoption:
WHEREAS, The Bay County Road Commission (hereafter BCRC) has scheduled and budgeted for improvements to the Beaver Road Drainage System for completion during the 2014 construction season; and
WHEREAS, Beaver Road is a part of the Bay County Primary Road System which makes the BCRC responsible for its upkeep, including the roadway itself, shoulders, drainage (ditches), signing, pavement markings, guardrail and other items directly associated with the roadway or safety thereof; and,
WHEREAS, The drainage portion of this roadway has been an ongoing concern for many years, especially from the railroad tracks east to Beaver Road’s intersection with Euclid Avenue (M-247) which has been especially problematic; and,
WHEREAS, Contributing factors for the poor drainage include the need to remove sediment/soil/cattail build-up, reset driveway culverts that are at an improper elevation to allow water to flow efficiently to designated outlets and failed culverts that restrict storm and snow melt runoff; and,
WHEREAS, To complete drainage improvements for the entire two mile stretch at one time is too costly based on the BCRC current yearly budget allowance; and,
WHEREAS, The BCRC is planning to proceed to improve the drainage along Beaver Road in phases; and,
WHEREAS, The BCRC proposal is to remove and replace Owner’s driveway culvert, place the needed fill, restore the driving surface and place rock riprap or grass seed on the end slopes, conditioned upon the Owner agreeing to cover the cost of the new culvert and end sections at a cost to the Owner of $840 per driveway as opposed to an estimated $4000 to $5000 cost which it might conceivably cost the Owner to pay a contractor to remove and replace their driveway culvert;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
1) That the Engineer-Manager, James C. Lillo, is hereby authorized to present the attached Agreement to each and every Owner along the Beaver Road Drainage System project which will allow the BCRC to remove and replace the Owner’s driveway culvert, place the needed fill, restore the driving surface and place rock riprap or grass seed on the end slopes for the sum of $840 per driveway.
2) That the Engineer-Manager, James C. Lillo, is hereby authorized to execute the attached Agreement with each and every Owner along the Beaver Road Drainage System who desires that the BCRC do the work above mentioned and who executes the attached Agreement without amendment thereto.
3) That all resolutions or parts of resolutions which are in conflict with this resolution be and hereby are repealed.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT, the Chairman and Clerk are authorized to sign said contract for the Board.
