Abstract: We construct a functor from the category of $(mathbbZ,X)$-modules of Ranicki (cf. cite{Ra92}) to the category of homotopy cosheaves of chain complexes of Ranicki-Weiss (cf. cite{RaWei10}) inducing an equivalence on $L$-theory. The $L$-theory of $(mathbbZ,X)$-modules is central in the algebraic formulation of the surgery exact sequence and in the construction of the total surgery obstruction by Ranicki, as described in cite{Ra79}. The symmetric $L$-theory of homotopy cosheaf complexes is used by Ranicki-Weiss in cite{RaWei10}, to reprove the topological invariance of rational Pontryagin classes. The work presented here may be considered as an addendum to the latter article and suggests some translation of ideas of Ranicki into the language of homotopy chain complexes of cosheaves.
