Analysis
This resolution approves Supplement #1 to an intergovernmental agreement between the Tennessee Department of Transportation and the Metropolitan Department of Water and Sewerage Services (“MWS”) originally approved by Resolution No. RS2018-1094. RS2018-1094 authorized MWS to enter into a Utility Relocation Contract with TDOT for the construction of State Project No. 105766.02, SR-11, (Nolensville Pike), from North of Mill Creek to near SR-254 (Old Hickory Boulevard), located in Davidson County. Tenn. Code Ann. § 12-9-104(a)(2) authorizes approval of intergovernmental agreements by resolution.
This Supplement amends the intergovernmental agreement previously approved by RS2018-1094 to reflect the updated cost estimate of the project. The estimated cost of relocating the facilities is $6,021,700, which is an increase from the original estimate of $3,959,370. This cost includes an increased betterment cost from $1,663,116 to $1,737,120 and an increased deposit amount from $1,864,931.90 to $2,043,718.40. This deposit includes the $1,737,120 betterment cost plus $306,598.40 in pro-rata costs of utility facilities located on public highway right-of-way. TDOT caps the maximum reimbursement for relocating utility facilities on public highway right-of-way for municipalities at $1,750,000.
Fiscal Note: The Metropolitan Department of Water and Sewerage Services’ deposit to the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) towards the Utility Relocation Contract No. 8756 would be increased by $178,786.50, from $1,864,931.90 to $2,043,718.40. The total estimated cost of relocating the utility facilities would be increased by $2,062,330, from $3,959,370 to $6,021,700.
