SUMMARY
The attached resolution provides Council support for the Florida Boating Improvement Grant
Program sponsored by Florida Fish & Wildlife Commission. Recently, City staff has applied for
$425,291 in funding which is applicable to the Indian River Drive /Main Street Project. If received,
these funds can significantly reduce the total cost of the project, thereby having the potential to
fund the construction with $912,823 in grant funding, equaling 50% of the construction costs.
Concerning the construction portion of the project, the City currently has $1,822,494 available.
These funds come from the following categories:
FUNDING SOURCE I AMOUNT
CRA Fund $834,962
Recreation Impact Fee Fund $500,000
FIND Grant $487,532
TOTAL CONSTRUCTION FUNDS $1,822,494
From these funds, the City has a cash allocation of $1,334,962. Obviously if the FWS grant is
received, these funds can be reduced by $425,291 and shift monies back to either the CRA or
Recreational Impact Fee Fund.
One other item concerning project costs. The allocation of $1.82 million does not include money
we have spent to date on the project such as engineering and property purchase. These costs
equal an additional expense of $598,690.24. All costs in and if the estimates for construction are
reached, the total project will be $2.4 Million. Below is a spreadsheet, which outlines total costs
to date for the entire project. Please keep in mind that construction costs are estimates, they
could increase or decrease based on actually bids.
