Port Richey staff says Grand Boulevard design near complete; FDOT timeline submitted
Summary
City staff reported Burns & McDonnell are preparing bid documents for the Grand Boulevard project and staff submitted timeline estimates to FDOT; construction was estimated at roughly eight months to a year, and staff will confirm whether a separate golf-cart crossing approval is required.
City staff updated the CRA board on the Grand Boulevard design and grant timeline, saying Burns & McDonnell are drafting bid documents and staff provided FDOT with timeline estimates.
Acting City Manager Salva Carey said design is nearly complete and staff estimated construction would take about eight months to a year for planning purposes in grant submissions. Carey urged the board to allow ample time in the application to avoid later extension requests.
Board members asked whether the golf-cart crossing needs a separate approval or is included in the submitted multi-vehicle crossing. Staff said the submittal covered multi-vehicle options and committed to double-check with FDOT so construction is not completed only to learn a separate ordnance is required.
Staff will follow up with FDOT to confirm the crossing approval process and return with any required procedural steps.
