TATE AVENUE INTERSECTION RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider Change Order No. 1 to the construction contract for the Nash -Berry reconstruction and South Nolen Drive connection projects with Jeske Construction Company to add an additional left turn lane at east bound Mustang Drive and William D. Tate Avenue intersection. FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the Capital Project Street Fund 178 in an estimated amount of $75,000. BACKGROUND: The additional eastbound Mustang Drive left turn lane at William D. Tate Avenue is a project that was previously approved for construction funding by the North Central Texas Council of Government (NCTCOG)Since this project was small in scope and the federal requirements for design and construction would substantially increase the cost, the federal funding was transferred to the Euless -Grapevine project that was completed in 2014. In return, the City is to provide documentation to NCTCOG that the Mustang Drive left turn lane was constructed with city funds. On February 6, 2019, the City contracted with DeOtte Engineering, Inc. as part of the sidewalk and intersection improvement projects to design the additional left turn lane. Plans are complete and approved for construction. On January 15, 2019, City Council awarded the contract for the Nash - Berry reconstruction and South Nolen Drive connection projects to Jeske Construction Company in the amount of $675,000. Since this contractor is mobilized and in Grapevine, it is cost effective to add this work to their existing contract. Jeske Construction Company has proposed Change Order No. 1 in the estimated amount of $75,000 for this work. Staff recommends approval.
