(Blackhawk GHAD Funds) (District III) Project No. 7760-6X5147 DATE: December 5, 2006 PAGE: 2 of 2 FISCAL IMPACT: There is no impact to the County General Fund. The Blackhawk GHAD is funded through revenues generated by assessments levied on properties within the GHAD boundary. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND: The Blackhawk GHAD is now in a critical time period when work in progress has to be completed before the winter begins. Aliquot provides the GHAD civil engineering and surveying services. They are involved with the Deer Meadow drainage improvement project, the Live Oak slide repair, the Pepperwood v-ditch replacement, the East Ridge Court landslide repair,the Deer Oak Way v-ditch repair,the Eagle Ridge landslide repair,the Chestnut Place v-ditch repair,the Redwood Drive v-ditch repair and the Canyons Annexations metes and bounds description. Some of these projects are finished and others are in progress. Aliquot's services relate to emergency repair projects resulting from the past winter storms. Slope repair designs are not typically completed until late summer. The extent of Aliquot's work scope has increased as the GHAD moves from providing preliminary site maps to identifying and completing slide repairs. Due to the varying project scopes and extensive repair work, a contract amendment is necessary at this time. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: A delay in approval will prevent Aliquot from these design operations. The projects will be delayed into the winter and the risk to property could increase from further landsliding.
