SUBJECT: Right-of-Way Acquisition for the American Avenue - SR 99 to Temperance Avenue Road Improvement Project - Federal Project No. HPLUL 5942(171) and (172)
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
TITLE
Accept the revised Easement Deed and authorize the Chairman to execute the revised Right-of-Way Contract required for the American Avenue - State Route 99 to Temperance Avenue Road Improvement Federal Project Nos. HPLUL 5942(171) and (172) for a total monetary consideration of $37,600.
