Title
A resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute two agreements to allow the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) to move funding in the amount of $4,950,133 from the original CDOT contract to a new CDOT contract for the Woodmen Road Widening Project (I-25 to Powers Boulevard)
Body
From:
Dave Lethbridge, Interim Public Works Director
Summary:
CDOT and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) are requesting to move $4.9M of Woodmen Road Widening Project from the original contract to a new contract in order to meet CDOT's software requirements. Moving this funding does not add any new money to the project; however it does require City Council approval of the attached resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute and administer the following agreements with CDOT:
1. Amendment #8 to Original Contract CMS # 00 HA2 00017, Project # STU M240-046 (12717), attached as Exhibit A; and
2. New CDOT Contract (Routing #14 HA2 66003, Project # STU M240-148 (19450)), attached as Exhibit B
Amendment #8 removes $4,977,277 from the original contract and adds $4,950,133 to the new contract. The $27,144 difference between the two agreements is CDOT non-participating costs from the original contract, which is not included in the new contract.

Background:
The proposed resolution is a required attachment to the CDOT IGAs. Public Works requests that City Council authorize the Mayor to enter into the necessary IGAs and to administer the projects through the funding that has been appropriated in previous years. The cost share for the projects continues to be 82.79% federal funds and 17.21% local funds.
Financial Implications:
There is no increase in funding to the Woodmen Road Widening Project as a result of the proposed resolution. Moving the $4.9M as shown below is at the request of CDOT and the FHWA:
