as much but the other three will have to be revised, and a FDOT revision is required and a new application has to be submitted and so even though we are not expired until December 2, 2011, FDOT views it as a reapplication because he has made modifications to the drawings that were submitted previously to FDOT. He has the drawing and so whatever modifications they require you will be letting him know and he will make the changes as he drew the details. As far as the variance in concerned, he signed and sealed the variance and so all we have to do is get together with the successful vendor and he will sign and seal the variance, hand it to you and it is a done deal, and then it goes back to FDOT. He put some notes on there just to let everyone know that they do expire 12/2/2011, and the new permits will be required through the contractor's qualifier. Director Batista said one of the elements of this project that he wants to be clear on is the issue with the corner ADA ramps. When we submitted for the permit the first time, FDOT went out and said that the corners do not meet standards. Because of the City's request to deviate from their standard FDOT practices, which is instead of requiring that this project modify all the ramps, they have let us keep the ramps in place. In other words, we leave the ramps and only remove the sidewalk leading up to the ramps, this is one of the reasons why we incorporated the color patch into this project. Because at the transition point it is typical at the transition where the ramp begins that this would be pavers, this flag would be pavers, this flag, this flag, and the next transition flag would be color patch which allows us to keep all the ramps and their transitions in place. So this project and the linear footage that you will be receiving as part of the proposal, the linear footage is up to that transition. The ADA ramps, and there is another item in the body of the proposal that is for the color patch for the two transition flags and the ramp flag. It is required that the Detectable Warning Surfaces (DWS) be replaced. Question: What about the curb and gutter? Answer: The curb and gutter remain, we are not removing curb and gutters on corners, we are removing curb and gutters in some locations, but we are not removing curb and gutters on corner ramps, and so we are only speaking specifically on corner ADA ramps and mid -block ADA ramps. At every intersection and at every street crossing you are going to run into this situation. One of the reasons why we didn't want to do it at all is because some of the G1G Y7111V11A- V1'LliV�G- l�ili�/,- RTCR'IVU�� s[uu-�Vau�[ucv- su�iva�wua�russ �arsvos uo u -wvva auvuc, —�V -- - -- repair the roadway and do the ramps right. So FDOT has allowed us to deviate from that and just paint them, and the reason for the paint is to make sure it continues with the same color pattern. Question: Atlantic to SR826 did not meet ADA requirements? Answer: Right, that is the other concern that he had and he is hoping that, because there are two ADA ramps there that are nonconforming but since it was done previously, FDOT may come back and say that you are required to do that, in the event that they do that, then it would have to be a change order. At this point we have only incorporated it to make sure that we understand that we may have to go back and repair some of it, and again, we may not have to do anything at all. Director Batista said all prices for each item provided on the bid form shall be all inclusive of everything. We want a 100% complete project. When you look at the bid form please incorporate into that bid form everything and anything that you think is necessary to ensure that we comply with the RFP for a 100% complete project.
