Authorize Execution of a Construction Contract with North Texas Contracting, Inc., in the Amount of
$2,886,564.50 for the Construction of Fort Worth Zoo Creek Drainage, Water and Sewer Improvements at
Forest Park and Provide for Additional Project Cost and Contingencies in the Amount of$265,332.63 for a
Total Construction Phase Cost of$3,151,897.13, and Adopt Appropriation Ordinances (COUNCIL

1. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
Water and Sewer Capital Projects Fund in the amount of$837,707.00 from available funds; and
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
PACS Gas Lease Capital Projects Fund in the amount of$352,000.00 from available funds; and
3. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
Stormwater Capital Projects Fund in the amount of $480,000.00 from available funds to the FW Zoo

4. Authorize the execution of a construction contract with North Texas Contracting, Inc., in the amount of
$2,886,564.50 for the construction of Fort Worth Zoo Creek Drainage, Water and Sewer Improvements at
Forest Park.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize the award and execution of
a construction contract with North Texas Contracting, Inc., in the amount of$2,886,564.50 for the
construction of Fort Worth Zoo Creek Drainage, Water and Sewer Improvements at Forest Park (Council
District 9).
On November 15, 2016, (M&C C-27993) City Council approved an Engineering Agreement with Dunaway
Associates, L.P., (City Secretary Contract No. 48433), in the amount of$319,872.00, to develop and
prepare design and construction documents necessary for drainage improvements in and around the
southern portion of Zoo Creek within Forest Park. The proposed drainage improvements will detain
stormwater in the park for short periods, which will provide immediate downstream flood mitigation
benefits and facilitate future upstream storm drainage improvements.
On February 1, 2018, the City administratively executed Amendment No. 1 to City Secretary Contract No.
Logname: 8000NSTRUCTION CONTRACT - FORT WORTH ZOO CREEK DRAINAGE Page 1 of 3
48433, in the amount of$99,598.00, thereby revising the total engineering contract amount to
$419,470.00. The amendment increased the project design scope to include the design and construction
of relocating an existing 24 inch water main. The structural integrity of the existing water main was found
to be threatened by the installation of the proposed drainage improvements. Due to the age of the existing
water line, relocation was determined the most prudent course of action.
On November 1 and 8, 2018, the project was advertised for bids in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and on
the City web site.
On December 13, 2018, the following bids were received and tabulated:
