PURCHASE OF AMENITIES FOR THE OAK GROVE BALLFIELD
COMPLEX AND FOR APPROVAL OF CHANGE ORDER NUMBER 3
FOR IMPROVEMENTS AT THE OAK GROVE BALLFIELD COMPLEX
AND THE OAK GROVE SOCCER COMPLEX
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council to consider approval of a resolution to ratify the purchase of amenities for the Oak
Grove Ballfield Complex and for approval of Change Order Number 3 for improvements at the
Oak Grove Ballfield Complex and the Oak Grove Soccer Complex. The resolution is attached
for review. Also attached is the breakdown of the Change Order items and the Quality of Life
Fund Financial Summary.
FUNDING SOURCE:
Funds are available in the Council Quality of Life Fund —Account 121-48850-312-07-000002.
BACKGROUND:
The construction phase of the improvements at the Oak Grove Ballfield Complex and the Oak
Grove Soccer Complex is complete with the exception of a few punch list items identified by
staff. The youth athletic associations finished their leagues at the Oak Grove.Ballfield Complex
and a major baseball tournament was held at the Complex the weekend of June 12 — 14.
Another major tournament was held at the Complex the weekend of June 26 — 28.
Tournaments like these provide a positive economic impact to Grapevine.
The feedback from citizens who have had the opportunity to visit the Complex has been very
positive. In fact, many citizens have made comments that the Oak Grove Ballfield Complex is
the best youth ballfield complex they have ever visited. The Oak Grove Ballfield Complex is
something we can all be proud of and the youth in Grapevine will have a great facility to use for
many years to come.
Amenities for the Oak Grove Ballfield Complex
At the Workshop on May 20, 2008, the Council gave approval to remove several items from the
bid for improvements at the Oak Grove Ballfield Complex in order to purchase directly from the
vendor, saving the City over $770,000. The amenities, vendors and cost that were not formally
approved by the Council are listed below.

(1) Pavestone — local vendor provided made-to-order pavers in shape and color and provided a
steep discount to the City.
Change Order Number 3 —Workman Commercial
At the July 15, 2008 Council Meeting, the Council approved a piece of public art for the Oak
Grove Ballfield Complex. Included in the Change Order with Workman Commercial is the
pavers, rockwork, electrical and lighting for the public art. At the September 2, 2008 Council
meeting, the Council approved Change Order Number 2 which included the irrigation pond and
pumping system. At that time, the Council requested that a fence be installed around the
perimeter of the pond. The fence is included in this change order.
At the September 16, 2008 Workshop, the Council gave approval for improvements at the Oak
Grove Soccer Complex. The improvements included paved parking lots, irrigation and
landscaping for the traffic islands in the parking lots, lighting for the parking lots, a new restroom
facility and new play equipment for the complex. Most of these improvements are included in
this change order.
During the construction at the complex, staff made several field changes that are a part of the
change order. One of the major field changes was the addition of new backstops for Fields H &
I. During the installation of the drainage lines behind the old backstops, the depth of the
drainage lines were below the footings of the wall of the backstop. The backstop fencing was
located in the walls. Once this was determined, staff made a decision to replace the old
backstops with backstops that were used on all the other fields at the complex.
Staff also included fencing to secure the ballfield complex as this was not in the original bid.
Another item that staff added was a trellis near the old restroom facility similar to the other two
trellises at the complex. This new trellis provides a very scenic overlook of Fields H & I and
Lake Grapevine and ties in this particular area of the complex to the rest of the complex.
At the November 18, 2008 meeting, the Council approved a new restroom facility for the
complex. The Grapevine Youth Baseball Association agreed to reimburse the City for the
restroom facility. However, utilities needed to be installed for the restroom facility and staff
added rock to the base of the new restroom facility as well as the old restroom facility to make
them look like the new restroom/concession/scorekeeper buildings. These are included in the
change order.
There are two major items included in the change order that staff is attempting to negotiate a
July 1,2009(12:29PM)
settlement with the design consultant, HNTB. The first major item is the clay liner for the
irrigation pond. Staff feels that the design consultant should have included clay in the
specifications as the City paid a firm to provide a soil density report for the pond and the report
recommended a clay liner. That report was provided to HNTB prior to the bid. However, HNTB
did not include this report to Workman Commercial prior to the construction of the pond.
The second major item that staff is attempting to negotiate is the utility work and the sewer lift
station. Throughout the design of the utilities at the complex, Public Works staff made
modifications to the plans according to the City's requirements for utilities and sewer lift station.
The consultant did not follow through and include these modifications in the specifications so
field changes had to be made to comply with the City standards on the utilities and sewer lift
station.
Attached is a sheet on all the change order items for Workman Commercial. The field changes
and additions represent approximately 5% of the total cost of the improvements at the Oak
Grove Ballfield Complex and the Oak Grove Soccer Complex.
