PUBLIC WORKS

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mike Keith, Interim City Manager
FROM: Ben Burchfield, Public Works Director

DATE: June 8, 2023

SUBJECT: TDOT Signal Acceptance Exit 49

| am requesting that the City Council authorize the mayor to execute the attached TDOT letter
affirming signal system acceptance for the two signals completed on Hwy 30 at exit 49.

The Public Works Department noted that it had failed to receive correspondence to do so upon
final inspection of the project during the summer of 2022. Upon contacting TDOT District 29
staff, they confirmed that the City should have indeed received the letter, but they did not send
it, and staff supplied the letter in addition to final costs of the signal improvements for the
project. Per Mr. Wagner, District 29 Manager, the total cost of the signalization system
improvements for the project was $392,624.50. The City has determined the signal system
installations to be satisfactory and functioning as intended.

The Public Works Department has itemized and forwarded along costs for construction of the
two intersections as well as costs for supplemental improvements to the existing intersections
at Denso Dr and Holiday Dr. Additions of the new intersections and changes to those existing
will be reflected in the City’s building and personal property policy coverage.
