Project Update on the 20^th Street South BUILD Grant/Interchange Project.

Body

Summary:

The City of Brookings was awarded a federal “Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development” (BUILD) Grant to construct 20^th Street South between 22^nd Avenue South and 34^th Avenue South along with an interchange at I-29 & 20^th Street South.  The engineering firm HDR was hired to complete the first phase of the project, which will include the Interstate Justification Report, Environmental Assessment, right-of-way, and design.  Staff will provide an update of the project and the 30% construction cost estimate.

Background:

The BUILD Grant was awarded to the City of Brookings in the fall of 2019.  The grant provides for constructing 20^th Street South from 22^nd Avenue South to 34^th Avenue South along with a new interchange.  The BUILD Grant was awarded through the U.S. Department of Transportation for a total project cost anticipated at $23,347,037.  Approximately $4,669,407 or 20% of the funding is local. This local match is met with City partners including $2 million from Brookings County, $669,407 from Private Donors and $2 million of City funding to make the project possible.

Staff will provide a 30% construction review at this meeting.  The 60% review is tentatively scheduled for November 2020 and the 90% review is tentatively scheduled for February 2021.
