Report
Summary
The Flood Control District of Maricopa County (FCDMC) Small Project Assistance Program (SPAP) provides an opportunity for cities to cost share flood hazard mitigation projects through local drainage solutions, with emphasis on projects that mitigate historical flooding issues. The City of Phoenix submitted five local drainage projects for the FY 2018 SPAP, which were all approved. The 52nd Street and Turquoise Avenue local drainage improvement project is one of the approved projects under the 2018 SPAP program by FCDMC.
The FY 2018 program provides cost share opportunities for project-related construction costs to be completed between July 1, 2017 and June 30, 2018. According to the 2018 SPAP program, the City of Phoenix will receive up to $250,000, or 75 percent of construction costs, whichever is less, for the construction costs of the project only. The remaining costs will be shared between the City of Phoenix and the Town of Paradise Valley. The City of Phoenix will be the lead for design and construction of the project, while both agencies will operate and maintain specific components of the completed project.
Financial Impact
The total estimated project cost is approximately $390,000. The amount of financial assistance from the FCDMC is limited to 75 percent of the project construction cost or $190,000. The remaining cost of approximately $200,000 will be shared 50/50 between the City of Phoenix and the Town of Paradise Valley. The City's share of the estimated project costs will be funded from the Local Drainage Solutions Program, which is in the Street Transportation Department's Capital Improvement Program for FY 2018. The design related project costs are covered under the FY 2017 Local Drainage Solutions Program.
