Agenda Item # 3
Columbus Consolidated Government
Council Meeting

Agenda Report # 113
TO: Mayor and Council
SUBJECT: TIA Supplement Agreement No. 2 - US27/Custer Road
Interchange Reconstruction/Modification
INITIATED BY: Planning Department
Recommendation: Approval is requested to enter into a supplemental agreement
with the Georgia Department of Transportation to adjust the budget for the
Transportation Improvement Act Project, that will provide necessary funding for
engineering consulting services.
Background: The US27/Custer Road Interchange Reconstruction/Modification is a
Transportation Investment Act (TIA) project that was approved by voters in July
2012. The project will provide direct access to property located at the
intersection of US 27 (Victory Drive) and I-185 for the purposes of developing
a business park.
Analysis: A supplemental agreement is needed to modify the existing budget for
the above referenced project. Line items in the original contract for ROW and
construction have been reduced by a total of $700,000, with that amount being
applied to the line item for preliminary engineering.
Financial Considerations: The total amount of $20 million in TIA funds for
this project has not changed. This action will allow us to maintain our
contractural obligations with the consultants on this project.
Projected Annual Fiscal Impact Statement: There will not be any annual fiscal
impact to the city for this action.
Legal Considerations: The City Attorney has approved this action.
Recommendations/Actions: Approval is requested to enter into a supplemental
agreement with the Georgia Department of Transportation to adjust the budget
for the Transportation Improvement Act Project, that will provide necessary
funding for engineering consulting services.
