CRA MEETING DATE: 22 June 2016
AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Re -appropriation of CRA Funds.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve amending the FY 15/16 CRA Budget to appropriate
project funds from Shoreline Stabilization to Landscape
Enhancement of the Cav Corp and Overflow Parking.
BACKGROUND: The CRA 15/16 budget holds $20,750 earmarked for
Shoreline Stabilization at the Working Waterfront (WWF). However, this phase of WWF
redevelopment has been postponed in consideration of a Florida Inland Navigation District
(FIND) proposal to install a seawall along the WWF property.
Recently, Council approved the paving plan for the
CavCorp lot. Landscaping for the CavCorp lot included maintaining some plant material around
the Clock Tower and sodding the retention areas. Since CavCorp is a heavily -used area of the
City, Staff believes enhancing the perimeter landscaping would add to the aesthetics of the
Riverview Park Campus, reduce heat island effects from the parking lot pavement, and provide a
more pedestrian -friendly area. Staff recommends re -appropriating the funds from the Shoreline
Stabilization project to CavCorp Parking Lot landscaping. To keep costs at a minimum, Staff
will design the landscape plan and, with the exception of any large tress, will install the
irrigation, plant and landscape materials. Staff estimates all landscaping and irrigation costs will
be under $15,000. The balance of funds will allow additional landscaping for the future
development of the South Parking/Overflow Lot.
