On July 30, 2002, (M&C C-19172) the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an Engineering Agreement with Dannenbaum Engineering, Inc., for the preparation of plans and specifications for Sanitary Sewer Main Nos. 257 and 325 Middle and Upper Village Creek Parallel Relief Alignment Study and Design. This project, Village Creek Drainage Basin Sanitary Sewer System Rehabilitation, Part 4, Units 1 and 2, consists of the construction of approximately 5,670 feet of sewer, within the following streets: Street | From | To | Cravens Road | Maceo Lane | Tallie Road | John T. White Road | Morrison Lane | 362 Feet East | Hardeman Street | Erath Street | Nolan Street | Rosedale Street | Ransom Terrace | Tension Drive | Tension Drive | At T&P Railroad Crossing | |
The project was advertised for bid on June 25, 2009, and July 2, 2009, in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. On July 23, 2009, the following bids were received: Bidder | Amount | Time of Completion | Conatser Construction TX, LP | $928,536.50 | 150 Calendar Days | William J. Schultz, Inc., | $1,050,355.00 | | | d/b/a Circle "C" Construction Company | | | Jackson Construction | $1,059,777.50 | | AUI Contractors, Inc. | $1,064,628.50 | | Rogers Construction Company | $1,270,906.25 | |
The project was bid as two units. Unit 1 consists of all project elements that were determined by the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) to be eligible for funding with Clean Water State Revolving Funds (CWSRF). The bid amount for Unit 1 was $764,453.50. Unit 2 consists of those project elements which were determined not to be eligible for CWSRF. The bid amount for Unit 2 was $164,083.00. M/WBE - Conatser Construction TX, LP, is in compliance with the City's M/WBE Ordinance by committing to 19 percent M/WBE participation. The City's goal on this project is 18 percent. Most State Revolving Loans are granted for construction contracts only. However with this particular loan the City of Fort Worth was authorized to pay for both an Engineering Agreement (design and survey) and the Construction Contract. Since no other expenses can be covered by SRF funding, additional appropriations of $49,200.00 ($41,000.00 for construction staking, project management material testing and inspection and $8,200.00 for project contingencies) are needed from the Sewer Capital Projects Fund. The project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICTS 4 and 5. |
