LOG NAME: 20SWM2012CONTROL DEVICES
SUBJECT:
Adopt Appropriation Ordinance Increasing Receipts and Appropriations in the Storm Water Capital Projects
Fund in the Amount of $118,600.00, Authorize Transfer of $118,600.00 from the Lake Worth Gas Lease
Capital Improvement Fund to the Storm Water Capital Projects Fund and Authorize Execution of a Contract
with West Coast Storm, Inc., in the Amount of $171,600.00 for Stormwater Structural Control Devices for
the Transportation and Public Works Department (COUNCIL DISTRICTS 4 and 7)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the transfer of $118,600.00 from the Lake Worth Gas Lease Capital Improvement Fund in
the amount of $118,600.00 to the Storm Water Capital Projects Fund; and
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
Storm Water Capital Projects Fund in the amount of $118,600.00 from available funds; and
3. Authorize the execution of a contract with West Coast Storm, Inc., for Stormwater Structural Control
Devices for the Transportation and Public Works Department in the amount of $171,600.00.
DISCUSSION:
The Transportation and Public Works Department (TPW) Stormwater Division will install stormwater
structural control devices in locations around the City. These devices will reduce the amount of trash,
sediment, and vegetation entering the storm drain system thus reducing the risk of flooding and protecting
water bodies from detrimental material. These devices will be installed along Quebec Street near Lake
Worth and on Meadowbrook Drive at Eastern Hills Elementary School.
The bid was advertised in the Fort Worth Star - Telegram on February 15, 2012, February 22, 2012 and
February 29, 2012. One hundred ninety vendors were solicited from the purchasing database
system. One bid was received by March 1, 2012, from West Coast Storm, Inc., in the amount of
$171,600.00. Staff certifies that the bid received from West Coast Storm, Inc., meets the specifications.
Staff contacted some of the other solicited vendors to ascertain why they did not submit bids. The primary
reasons cited were: inability to provide a product that met contract specifications or unwillingness to bid in
markets outside their home states. The Purchasing Division has received one to three bids for this service
in the last two years.
The Water Department and the Stormwater Utility agreed to fund the cost for these installations. The
Water Department will be using Lake Worth Gas Lease funds ($118,600.00) for the Quebec Street
location and the Stormwater Utility will be using Stormwater revenue bonds ($53,000.00) to fund the

Eastern Hills Elementary School location. Location maps are attached.
The bid price for the structural control devices being recommended for award has been evaluated by Staff
and is considered fair and reasonable.
M /WBE — A waiver of the goal for M/WBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Purchasing
Division and approved by the M/WBE Office because the purchase of goods or services is from sources
where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible.
This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICTS 4 and 7.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies funds are available in the current capital budgets,
as appropriated, of the Storm Water Capital Projects Fund and the Storm Water Capital Project Bond
Fund.
