LOCAL PROJECT ADVANCE FUNDING AGREEMENT WITH
TXDOT FOR THE BIG BEAR CREEK PEDESTRIAN LINKAGE
TRAIL
City Council consider approving a Local Project Advance Funding Agreement with
TxDOT for the Big Bear Creek Pedestrian Linkage Trail, authorize payment in the
amount of $80,535 to TxDOT for the construction costs, authorize the City Manager to
execute said agreement and take any necessary action.
FUNDING SOURCE:
Funds for the construction of the trail will come from the unencumbered balance of the
Quality of Life Fund.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Over the past several years, residents in the Western Oaks and Belfort subdivisions
have requested a safe access to the Big Bear Creek Hike & Bike Trail. Since the hike
and bike trail is located on the north side of the creek and the subdivisions on the south
side, there is no safe way to access the trail.
Initially, staff was looking at a trail linkage from Heritage Drive north and installing a
pedestrian bridge across Big Bear Creek to the trail. However, one of the consulting
firms interviewed for the design recommended (as a way to reduce the cost) using a part
of the edge of the service road along William D. Tate Avenue to link up with the trail on
the north side of the creek.
Initially, Council approved $277,000, to TXDOT for the Advance Funding Agreement.
TxDOT is managing the bidding and construction of the trail and the final bid that came
in required an additional $80,535 commitment from the City. However, at that time the
plans were in flux and we looked for a less-expensive option for making this connection.
- Funding Allocated thus far:
o $277,000 — advanced funding
10:18:25 AM 8/28/2014
- New funding required:
o $80,535
The additional amount is required due to the final design of the project, material cost,
labor cost and TxDOT safety requirements have all risen and/or changed since the
original estimate in 2012.
Staff recommends approval of the agreement.
