Requested Action
Consider the authorization of funding and approval of contracts.
Recommendation
The authorization of funding in an amount not to exceed $239,175.00 and approval of contracts, including design and survey services with Teague Nall and Perkins, Inc., to prepare FM 157 and S. Parkridge Sanitary Sewer Improvements for public bidding and construction.
Description/History
The existing 8-inch sanitary sewer main along FM 157 between Tanglewood Drive and Moore Road needs to be upsized to a 12-inch to meet the demand of the current and anticipated surrounding development. Additionally, a 12-inch diversion line between the two sanitary sewer mains in Hogpen Branch just south of Debbie Lane is necessary to address predicted surcharging. These two projects are included in the Wastewater Master Plan as high priority projects to address existing capacity concerns.
Also included in this design proposal is the replacement of the 6-inch sanitary sewer main in South Parkridge Drive. This sanitary sewer line is forty plus years old and has been identified by the Water Utilities Dept. as problematic with frequent repair needs.
The requested funds are for design and survey services with Teague Nall and Perkins, Inc. in the amount of $219,175.00, which includes a 10% contingency for potential design and survey scope changes, and $20,000 for easement acquisition and other miscellaneous services, for a total budget of $239,175.00.
Justification
This project is included in the Wastewater Master Plan.
The Director of Public Works will be in attendance at the meeting to answer Council’s questions regarding the proposed funding and contracts.
