Summary Explanation and Background:
In the past, the County and the School Board of Brevard County have partnered to accomplish projects, but those were performed through project-specific Interlocal Agreements. The Interlocal Agreement for School Access and Site Improvements will allow for a variety of projects to be performed by the County for the School Board. At its sole discretion, the County may provide construction services for minor civil projects, including, but not limited to, signing, paving, drainage, striping and concrete work at schools located within the County. Work will be requested by the School Board in Task Orders. Upon acceptance (agreed-upon scope and costs) of a Task Order by the County, the School Board will issue a Purchase Order to the County. As requested, the Public Works Director, on behalf of the County, will have the authority to execute Purchase Orders, Change Orders, and other necessary contract-related documents.
The Interlocal Agreement outlines the terms and conditions of this partnership. The term of the Interlocal Agreement is one year from the effective date and will automatically renew every year unless terminated by either party with thirty days prior written notice. The County and the School Board determined the public benefit of this partnership is the cost-effective use of public funds. The School Board will consider the Interlocal Agreement at their July 13, 2021 meeting. Per Administrative Order 29, the County Attorney’s Office, Risk Management, and Purchasing Services have reviewed and approved the Interlocal Agreement.
Clerk to the Board Instructions:
Please return the fully executed Interlocal Agreement to the Public Works Department for recordation.
