ATTACHMENT "A"
Scope for Engineering Design Related Services for Storm Water Improvements Proiects
The scope set forth herein defines the work to be performed by the ENGINEER in
completing the project. Both the CITY and ENGINEER have attempted to clearly define the
work to be performed and address the needs of the Project. Under this scope, "ENGINEER"
is expanded to include any sub - consultant, including surveyor, employed or contracted by
the ENGINEER.
OBJECTIVE
Carten Street Storm Drain Extension
Currently there is excessive street flooding along Janice Lane (from north of Greenlee Street
to Robinhood Lane) and Robinhood Lane (from Janice Lane to Carten Street) in east Fort
Worth during the Q5 and Q100 design storms. Storm flows along Janice Lane exceed the
capacity of the street and right -of -way to convey the Q5 and Q100 storms for most of the
length of the street from north of Greenlee Street to Robinhood Lane. Presently, there is no
storm drain system in Janice Lane. During Q5 and larger storm events runoff from Janice
Lane crosses the crown of Robinhood Lane and flows over the curb and /or up driveways
onto residential property and continues between houses to Carten Street just south of
Meadowbrook Drive. This creates a risk of flooding to the homeowners in the block
bounded by Janice Lane, Robinhood Lane, Carten Street, and Meadowbrook Drive and has
been the source of numerous complaints.
The objective of this project is to provide storm sewer improvements to the Carten Street
drainage system to reduce the potential flooding risk identified above. Adjustments to
existing water and sanitary sewer lines in Janice Lane, Carten Street, and Robinhood Lane
will be necessary to eliminate conflicts with the storm sewer improvements.
