FROM: ROGER NELSON, CITY MANAGER,f
J
MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 15, 2000
SUBJECT: FY 2000 WATERLINE DESIGN CONTRACT
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council consider awarding design contract to Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. in an
amount not to exceed $ 241,886 for Engineering Design Services on the FY 2000
Waterline Project, authorize staff to execute said contract, and take any necessary
action.
FUNDING SOURCE:
Funds are currently available in FY 99 Utility Bonds for the waterline project as follows:
Project Budget
Engineering $ 324,405 11.0%
Construction 2,197,352 75.0%
Contingency 418,071 14.0%
Total $ 2,939,828 100.0%
BACKGROUND:
The project consists of four elements.
$ 48,750 N Scribner Project
$ 275,655 FY 2000 Water Project
• 16 " Waterline from NW Hwy to Dallas Road & 20" Waterline from S. Ball St. @ W. D.
Tate Ave. to SH 114
• 24" Waterline from Mustang Drive to Timberline Drive
• 24" and 27" Waterline from Timberline Drive south to Hall Johnson Road
• 20" Waterline from Hughes Road to Glade Road
February 7, 2000 (1:14PM)
These four segments of waterlines are on the City's Water Master Plan and are
projected to be needed during the 10 Year Planning Period of 1996 through 2006. Also,
the waterline projects have been included in the Water Impact Fees currently charged
for new development.
These lines will combine with a 16" line extending north from NW Hwy to the existing
Dove Tank 20" line crossing the City's Municipal Service Center to provide significantly
increased capacity to distribute water from TRA into the northern areas of the City. The
16" line is being designed by Cheatham & Associates for the City and for GCISD to
cross the new Middle School Site and continue along Scribner Street to the existing 20"
line.
The proposed Basic Services Fee represents approximately 7.9 % of the construction
cost which falls slightly above the parameters in the Engineering Design Fee Curves.
However, staff uses the fee curve only as a guide for fee development since the fee
curves were issued in 1982. The proposal for Basic Services includes an additional
element above and beyond normal basic services.
The engineering firm will prepare up to three alternative routes for each of the four
segments of waterline in this project for a total of 12 alternatives. The alternatives are
necessary because of the congested areas through which the lines will be constructed,
(including Ball Street from Dallas Road to NW Highway and W. D. Tate Avenue from S.
Ball Street to SH 114). These alternative routes will help address various conflicts,
costs, available right-of-way and impact on adjacent properties and businesses.
Staff feels this is an acceptable proposal for the scope of work proposed by the
consultant and requested by Staff.
Staff recommends approval.

2A.2 Proiect Inventory:
Compile existing data of record concerning all physical elements which will affect
the design process.
2A.3 Site Conditions Analysis:
Review previous studies of the corridor and the existing conditions to formulate a
"laundry list" of problems and their potential solutions to be addressed in the design
process.
2AA Alternative Concept Plan:
Prepare up to 3 alternative concept (alignment) plans for each of the four pipeline
segments at a scale of 1" = 100'. Utility conflicts that can be visually identified or
are identified by various utilities (electric, telephone, cable, water, sewer, and/or
gas) in the area will be taken into consideration in determining the alignment. Any
observed physical conflicts will also be identified. Permitting requirements for
railroads, Corps of Engineers, Texas Department of Transportation, and/or utility
companies will be identified. These plans will address the engineering design, right-
of-way concerns, environmental concerns, opinion of probable construction cost,
schedule, and other pertinent issues in sufficient detail to allow an alignment to be
selected before proceeding to preliminary design.
2A.5 Concept Plan Selection:
Submit six (6) copies of the information identified in the alternative concept plan for
the City's review. Meet with City staff to identify an alignment that will be further
developed in the Preliminary Design.
