SUMMARY:
February 20, 2014 City Council approved an amendment to SWFWMD agreement N395 increasing funding to a maximum of $875,000.
The amendment will allow the agreement between the City and SWFWMD to extend the contract expiration date to September 30, 2015.
The Smallwood Circle Drainage Improvements project consists of the following improvements:
· The upstream limit of the project is by Wood Drive near Rose Wood Street and the downstream limit of the project is the intersection of Elmwood Avenue and North Highland Avenue.
· Construction of this project includes 48 drainage structures, 3,450 linear feet of larger pipes, and a baffle box to improve water quality.
