financial aspects, economic feasibility, or schedules will not vary from the
ENGINEER's opinions, analyses, projections, or estimates.
G. Construction Progress Payments
Recommendations by the ENGINEER to the CITY for periodic construction progress
payments to the construction contractor will be based on the ENGINEER's
knowledge, information, and belief from selective sampling and observation that the

represent that continuous or detailed examinations have been made by the
ENGINEER to ascertain that the construction contractor has completed the work in
exact accordance with the Contract Documents; that the final work will be
acceptable in all respects; that the ENGINEER has made an examination to
ascertain how or for what purpose the construction contractor has used the moneys
paid; that title to any of the work, materials, or equipment has passed to the CITY
free and clear of liens, claims, security interests, or encumbrances; or that there are
not other matters at issue between the CITY and the construction contractor that
affect the amount that should be paid.

The following is a clarification of the tasks that the ENGINEER will perform under
ATTACHMENT "A". Work under this attachment includes engineering services for water and/or
sanitary sewer improvements for the following:
Lancaster Avenue Water Project No. PW53-060530176350
Water and Sanitary Sewer Sewer Project No. . PS58-070580175700
Replacement D.O.E. 4007
Upon receipt of notice to proceed, the ENGINEER will perform the following tasks:
PART A— PRE-ENGINEERING
1. Initial Data Collection
a. Pre-Design Coordination Meetings
ENGINEER attended and documented meetings, as required, to discuss and
coordinate various aspects of the project and to ensure that the project stays on
schedule. For purposes of establishing a level of comfort, two (2) meetings were
anticipated. These include the following:
One (1) pre-design kick-off meeting, (including the CITY's Department of
Engineering and other departments that are impacted by the project).
One (1) review meeting at completion of the City's review of the
conceptual engineering plans.
b. Data Collection
In addition to data obtained from the City, ENGINEER researched and
made efforts to obtain pertinent information to aid in coordination of the
proposed improvements with any planned future improvements that may
influence the project. ENGINEER also identified and seeked to obtain
data for existing conditions that may impact the project including; utilities,
City Master plans, property ownership as available from the Tax
E,1-1
Assessor's office.
The data collection efforts included conducting several special
coordination meetings with affected property owners and businesses as
necessary to develop sewer re-routing plans.
The following applied at all locations where it was necessary to relocate
or reroute the existing private sanitary sewer service line due to the
abandonment or realignment of the existing public sanitary sewer lateral
or main:
The CITY furnished the Engineer with a sample format of how the sewer
service line reroute/relocation should be designed and submitted for
construction. During design survey, if a rod could be inserted through the
cleanout to the bottom of the service line, the Engineer obtained the flow
line elevation and design the service line prior to advertising the project
for bid. If the service flow line information couldn't be obtained during
design survey, the Engineer shall delay the design of the sewer service
line until the start of construction. The CITY will direct the Contractor to
de-hole the service line at the clean-out location of all buildings or
structures so that the Engineer or surveyor can determine the flow line of
the sewer service line after contract(s) for the construction of the project
have been awarded, but prior to the construction of any sanitary sewer
lateral or main which will require the reroute/relocation of existing public
and private sanitary sewer service lines. The Engineer shall then use this
information to provide the design for the sanitary sewer service line to be
rerouted or relocated,
C. Coordination with Other Agencies
During the concept phase the ENGINEER coordinated with all utilities,
including utilities owned by the City, TxDOT and railroads. These entities
were contacted if applicable, to determine plans for any proposed
facilities or adjustment to existing facilities within the project limits. The
information obtained were shown on the concept plans. The ENGINEER
showed the location of the proposed utility lines, existing utility lines and
any adjustments and/or relocation of the existing lines within the project
limits. ENGINEER completed all forms necessary for City to obtain
permit letters from TxDOT and railroads and submit such forms to the
City. City shall be responsible for forwarding the forms to the affected
agencies for execution.

City of Fort Worth, Texas
Mayor and Council Communication
COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 10/28/2003 - Ordinance # 15727
DATE: Tuesday, October 28, 2003
LOG NAME: 30LANCASTER REFERENCE NO.: **C-19826
SUBJECT:
Appropriation Ordinance and Engineering Agreement with Wendy Lopez & Associates, Inc. d/b/a
LopezGarcia Group for Water and Sanitary Sewer Replacements on Lancaster Avenue from Lamar
Street to Main Street
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the transfer of$91,000 from the Water and Sewer Fund to the Water Capital Project Fund in
the amount of $45,048 and the Sewer Capital Project Fund in the amount of$45,952 from available
funds; and
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
Water Capital Project Fund in the amount of $45,048 and the Sewer Capital Project Fund in the
amount of$45,952 from available funds; and
3. Authorize the City Manager to execute an engineering agreement with Wendy Lopez &Associates, Inc.
d/b/a LopezGarcia Group (LGG), in the amount of$88,000 for water and sanitary sewer replacements
on Lancaster Avenue from Lamar Street to Main Street.
DISCUSSION:
On February 12, 2002 (M&C C-18963), the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an
engineering agreement (City Secretary Contract No. 27571) with EDAW, Inc. in association with other
engineering and planning firms to prepare plans and specifications for the reconstruction of Lancaster
Avenue from IH-35W to Henderson Street.
During the course of design it has been determined that additional water and sanitary sewer improvements
beyond the original scope are necessary in order to improve the level of water and sewer service to
customers in the immediate vicinity of the project. It is also necessary to prepare storm water pollution
prevention plans now required by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
The LGG, EDAW, Inc.'s sub-consultant for design of the water and sanitary sewer improvements, proposes
to conduct the additional design work for a lump sum fee of $88,000. In order to expedite the design of the
additional water and sewer improvements, staff recommends that the City execute an engineering
agreement with LGG instead of amending the agreement with EDAW, Inc. Furthermore, executing a
contract with LGG will save the City approximately $8,800 that EDAW, Inc. would have charged the City for
administering the additional design work.
Wendy Lopez & Associates, Inc. d/b/a LopezGarcia Group is in compliance with the City's M/WBE
Ordinance by committing to 12% M/WBE participation. The City's goal on this project is 12%.
Logname: 30LANCASTER Page 1 of 2
In addition to the contract amount, $3,000 (water: $1,400; and sewer: $1,600) is required for project
management by the Engineering Department.
The project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 9, Mapsco 76D and 77A.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that upon approval and completion of recommendation No. 1 and adoption of
the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current capital budgets, as appropriated,
of the Water and Sewer Capital Project Funds.
