The City of St. Augustine Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) and the Lincolnville Community Redevelopment Area (LCRA) has contracted with Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. and their subconsultant partner to begin the geotechnical field operations to support the final design efforts for the MLK Ave Streetscape Project.
This is to advise you that in order to obtain the required data to develop the design for this project, field activities are scheduled to begin June 24th and anticipated to take approximately one week. Field activities include the collection of pavement cores/geotechnical borings. During this time, traffic will be impacted, and temporary lane closures will be required during daytime hours. Access to individual properties will be maintained at all times. These activities may require entry onto your property, and it is anticipated that while performing these services, minor land disturbances may be required.
This work will be conducted in accordance with Florida Statute 471.027 which grants permission for engineers to "go on, over, and upon the lands of others when necessary to make engineering surveys and, in so doing, to carry with them their agents and employee's necessary for that purpose." Be assured, that in accordance with the statute those entering your property will not "destroy, injure, damage, or move anything on lands of another without written permission of the landowner."
Under Kimley-Horn and Associates' contract, Meskel & Associates Engineering will be preforming the geotechnical work. This firm will be acting as an agent for the City CRA on this project.
We appreciate your cooperation in this effort. If you have any questions regarding this project or the work being done by field personnel, please do not hesitate to contact Jaime D. Perkins at 904-209-4201 or via email at jperkins@citystaug.com.
