Garden City Improvement Fund
Department:Recreation, Parks and Facilities
Caption:Approve MOU between Augusta, Georgia and the Augusta
Convention and Visitors Bureau regarding the Garden City
Improvement Fund for Saint Sebastian Way Landscape
Improvements.
Background:For the enhancement of landscape improvements in city owned
medians on Saint Sebastian Way, between Walton Way and
Reynolds Street; including adjacent sections of Broad Street and
Greene Street, Walton Way between 13th and 15th Street and on
the new Medical District/Downtown exit ramp of Riverwatch
Parkway. This area being a major gateway to the city and to our
medical district appears to be rather blighted. This condition is
primarily due to lack of irrigation. This agreement will allow
Augusta to contribute funding in the amount of $185,000 for
irrigation system installation, to include the initial supply of lines
and taps for water source to the respective landscaped medians
and ramps. The Garden City Improvement Fund, coordinated by
CVB, will provide private funding for the balance of the
@$525,000 project. CVB will be responsible for managing the
project.
Analysis:Request that the Memorandum of Understanding between the
Augusta Convention and Visitors Bureau and Augusta, Georgia be
approved, with the ACVB being the overseeing entity of the
Garden City Improvement Fund.
Financial Impact:The total estimated cost of the installation of the irrigation system,
including water lines and taps, is $225,000. SPLOST IV $105,000
Augusta Utilities $40,000 SPLOST VI $40,000
Alternatives:1: Allow project to move forward without public participation 2:
Approve the public/private partnership and its financial
obligations 3: Partner, but with no financial contributions
Recommendation:Recommend # 2, as this is the best option for both private and

public entities. This initiative will create a much more welcoming
enviroment to our medical and downtown business district.
Funds are Available
