2017 - Recreation Dump Truck
Department:Central Services Department - Fleet Management Division
Presenter:Ron Crowden
Caption:Request Commission approval to purchase one non-CDL required
dump truck for the Recreation Department. (Bid Item 17-188)
Background:The Recreation Department currently has 2 dump trucks that
require drivers with Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). The
Department has only one driver with a CDL and has been
unsuccessful in hiring a second qualified driver. The purchase of a
truck not requiring a CDL qualified driver will enhance the
Department’s capability for parks and facilities maintenance. The
Department will turn in 994217, a 2000 International 2000, 4700
dump truck as excess. This truck has an excessive maintenance
history. The vehicle evaluation is attached for review. The
department has a need to haul sand, soil, mulch and
landscape/wood waste for projects and park maintenance. The
smaller dump truck, not requiring a CDL qualified driver will
allow a variety of staff to operate the truck.
Analysis:The Procurement Department published a competitive bid using
the Demand Star electronic bid application. The results of Bid 17-
188 - Dump Truck, which closed June 2, 2017, are: Fleetcare
Commercial at $71,900.00; Freightliner of Augusta at $77,383.00
and Rush Truck Center at $81,848.00. The tabulation sheet is
attached for review
Financial Impact:The purchase of this truck is from 2017 Capital Outlay – Fleet, for
$71,900.00 from the following account: 272-01-6440/54.22210.
Alternatives:(1) Approve the request; (2) Do not approve the request
Recommendation:Approve the purchase of the truck and designate excess truck as
surplus and available for auction.

Application of the National Endowment of the Arts “Our Town FY18” Grant
Department:Housing and Community Development
Presenter:Mr. Hawthorne E. Welcher, Jr.
Caption:Motion to accept as information the Housing and Community
Development Department’s application for the National
Endowment of the Arts “Our Town FY18” Grant cycle to increase
citizen and visitor awareness and knowledge of Mr. James Brown,
a local historic musician, through the use of various artworks.
Background:Beginning in 2009, the Housing and Community Development
Department was tasked with redeveloping two local National
Historic Districts that have seen years of disinvestment and
degradation. Since the beginning of redevelopment, there has
been steady redevelopment/restoration progress (acquisition,
demolition, rehabilitation, new construction, pocket parks, green
space, etc.), most notably on Pine Street, 11th Street, Holley
Street, Wrightsboro Road, and Twiggs Street respectfully. Based
on the continued success of these growing developmental nodes,
new homeowners/tenants continue to invest and
developers/contractors/others continue to seek partnerships and
investment opportunities alike. At this time, we feel that the
community would benefit from an infusion of artistic works to
increase the awareness of various musicians of notoriety. The first
musician of note will be Mr. James Brown. James Brown Blvd. is
one of the main thoroughfares that leads from the Historic
Districts to the downtown/Savannah River area. As such, the
James Brown Journey will be anchored on James Brown Blvd,
between Walton Way and Twiggs Street. Artistic works will
signify the entrance to the James Brown Journey at Walton Way.
There will be five (5) stops along the Journey culminating with a
statue of James Brown in the middle of the roundabout that is
being installed at James Brown Blvd and Twiggs Street. In
addition, a park will be created that will promote healthy
movement as a tribute to Mr. Brown’s legacy and performance
style. The James Brown Journey can either be walked (1.5 miles
from beginning to end) or experienced as a park and see, allowing
those that are unable to walk the entire stretch to drive and park at
the stops. While this is a great start to increasing awareness by
adding artwork and interactive points of interest for the residents
of the Laney Walker and Bethlehem neighborhoods, this is only
the beginning. The James Brown Journey is one portion of “The
Traces” initiative that is currently being studied and compiled for
the Housing and Community Development Department. Though
the neighborhoods have seen disinvestment in the past, we want to
help preserve and share the great historic facts of the area while
promoting healthy movement and community involvement.
Analysis:Through the collaborative efforts of the Housing and Community
Development Department, Recreation Department, The Arts
Council, and the Downtown Development Authority, we believe
that we have a very solid opportunity for this grant (due:
September 11th). If awarded, this grant would allow us to bring in
an additional $200,000 to add artistic works to an area that has
seen so much disinvestment over the years and is now seeing
revitalization.
Financial Impact:The grant requires a dollar for dollar match. With the investment
of Bond Financing/Tourism Fees, SPLOST 7 funds designated for
Dyess Park Improvements through the Recreation Department,
and Federal funds used in the area, we can meet and exceed the
dollar for dollar match requirement without adding any additional
strain on the current Housing and Community Development
Department's budget.
Alternatives:N/A
Recommendation:Accept as Information Only
Funds are Available
in the Following
Accounts:
Community Development Block Grant funds that are already
received from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development. Bond Financing/Tourism Fees that have already
been approved by the Augusta Commission. SPLOST 7 funds

Background:We have entered into a contract with Combined Insurance
Company of America on January 1st 2010 with automatic

Analysis:Eye Med (Combined Insurance) has been our vision carrier since

Premiums have not increased since the original contract January 1,
2010.

CDBG Funding Re-Program
Department:Housing and Community Development
Presenter:Hawthorne Welcher, Jr.
Caption:Discuss (and receive as information) amending the 2011, 2013,
2014 and 2015 Action Plans to Re-program $152,095.00, and
Revise the Scope of Work in Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) funds.
Background:Because certain funds were being forfeited and certain projects
have unused funds, it has become necessary to reprogram these
funds to facilitate their expenditure. We are proposing that funds
be reprogrammed FROM the following projects:
1. 2011 Appraisals – 14,377.78
2. 2013 Small Business Assistance – 4,326.00
3. 2013 Project Delivery-Legal Costs/Surveys – 1,702.50
4. 2013 Homeless Transportation Program – 60,000.00
5. 2013 Coordinated Health Services – 14,037.01
6. 2014 CSRA Business League – YEL Program 200.00
7. 2014 Senior Citizens Council – 6,661.90
8. 2014 Coordinated Health Services – Clinic 5,000.50
9. 2014 HCD Relocation 28,985.34
10. 2015 Paint Program 1,765.11
11. 2015 CSRA Business League – YEL Program 3,002.71
12. 2015 Good Hope Social Services 36.15
13. 2015 Hope House, Inc. 2,000.00
14. 2015 Senior Citizens Council 10,000.00
Total amount being reprogrammed $152,095.00
Justification: In order for the department to meet its annual HUD
Regulatory Spend Down Requirement we find it necessary to
reprogram funding to viable projects that will expend funding
timelier. Staff is proposing the funds be reprogrammed To the
following projects: For CDBG: 1. Housing and Community
Development Department – $152,095.00 Funds are being
transferred to support additional Housing Rehabilitation and
Permanent Supportive Housing (SHP) Projects, such as:
expanding Home Owner rehab projects, Reconstruction, New
Construction. No final costs are currently being projected which
gives us the flexibility needed to complete these projects.
According to the City’s Citizen Participation Policy, this increase
in allocation constitutes a substantial change to the Action Plans.
Therefore, the revisions must be presented to the public for a 30-
day comment period. If comments are received, they will be
presented to the Commission for consideration. We are requesting
authorization to proceed with the publication of a public notice in
the newspapers to solicit comments on the changes. The Public
Notice will be published in the Augusta Chronicle August 30,
2017 and the Metro Courier August 31, 2017. The deadline for
comments will be September 29, 2017 by 5:00pm. Any
comments received will be presented to Commission on Tuesday,
October 3, 2017.
Analysis:The additional funds will allow the department to fund additional
homeowner rehabilitations/reconstructions/new
constructions/other as annually the demand for this program far
exceeds the budgeted funds to assist. Also, not apart of this
agenda item, but to note, HCD has also set aside $63,656.46 to be
reprogrammed (when ready), through Administrator), for future
Augusta, GA projects/priorities yet to be named.
Financial Impact:Funding immediately available for Augusta, GA homeowners for
the following: $152,095.00 -- Homeowner Rehab/ Reconstruction/
New Construction/ Other
Alternatives:N/A
Recommendation:Accept the Housing and Community Department's (HCD)
recommendations for use of the additional funds and grant HCD
authorization to proceed with the publication of a Public Notice
soliciting citizen comments on the proposed changes to the 2011,
2013, 2014 and 2015 Action Plan. On Tuesday, October 3, 2017,
any comments received will be presented to Commission for
consideration.
