$296,200.00 for the Meadowbrook Golf Course Irrigation Water Well Installation Project and Adopt
Appropriation Ordinance (COUNCIL DISTRICT 4)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize execution of a Construction Contract with Jackson Drilling Services, LP, in the amount of
$296,200.00 for the Meadowbrook Golf Course Irrigation Water Well Installation Project; and
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations by
$76,000.00 in the Golf Gas Lease Capital Project Fund.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M &C) is to authorize the award of a Construction
Contract to Jackson Drilling Services, LP, in the amount of $296,200.00 for the Meadowbrook Golf Course
Irrigation Water Well Installation Project.
In July 1999, (M &C G- 12617) the City Council approved the sale of $4,100,000.00 in Combination Tax
and Revenue Certificates of Obligation to fund the construction of improvements to and equipment for
Pecan Valley and Meadowbrook Golf Courses. A total of $230,000.00 was allocated for the installation of
an irrigation water well at Meadowbrook Golf Course. This project is also being supplemented by
$76,000.00 in gas royalty funding derived from mineral leases on golf course properties. The project
includes installation of a well pump, minor grading work, electrical work and installation of discharge piping
to the existing pond.
The project was advertised for bids in the Fort Worth Star - Telegram on March 17, 2011 and March 24,
2011 with two bids received at bid opening on April 14, 2011. Both bids were determined to be non-
responsive for failing to comply with the M /WBE goal for the project. In addition, one of the bidders,
Jackson Drilling Services, LP, failed to acknowledge receipt of an addendum while the other bidder,
Central Texas Water Well, submitted a bid that exceeded available project funds. On July 19, 2011, (M &C
C- 25035) the City Council authorized the City Manager to reject all bids received and to re- advertise the
project.
The project was re- advertised on July 21, 2011 and July 28, 2011. On August 18, 2011, the following bids
were received:

It is recommended that the base bid in the amount of $296,200.00, as submitted by Jackson Drilling
Services LP, be approved for award of contract. The contract time is 40 working days.
In addition to the contract cost, associated contingency funding for construction inspection and change
order contingency funding totals $9,000.00.
M /WBE - Jackson Drilling Services LP, is in compliance with the City's M/WBE Ordinance by committing
to 3 percent M/WBE participation. The City's goal on this project is 3 percent.
Meadowbrook Golf Course annual irrigation watering costs average $65,000.00. It is estimated that the
new water well will generate an annual savings in the cost of water sufficient to recover the cost of this
investment within five years.
Construction is anticipated to commence in January 2012 and completed by March 2012.
Meadowbrook Golf Course is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 4 and is classified as a special use citywide
facility.
