Lake Arlington Flowage Easement. Other LID measures will be investigated including grass
swales and vegetated buffer strips ENGINEER will investigate the structural measures to

Costs for a Project Total in the Amount of $1 149,863.00 (COUNCIL DISTRICT 5)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize execution of an Engineering Services Agreement with
Halff Associates, Inc., in the amount not to exceed $958,219.00 for engineering services to design and
support construction of Lakeshore Drive from Wilbarger Street to Berry Street.
DISCUSSION.
This Agreement is for the design and construction of Lakeshore Drive from Wilbarger Street to Berry Street
that will be accomplished through the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) delivery method. It is expected
that the CMAR process will improve quality and value, expedite project delivery minimize change orders,
and control construction costs through a guaranteed maximum pnce. The actual CMAR firm will be selected
at a later date through a process in compliance with state law, and brought to Council under a separate Mayor
and Council Communication (M&C). Halff Associates Inc., was selected to perform this work because they
conducted the alternative alignment feasibility study for the roadway and are uniquely qualified because they
understand the key issues and project goals
Due to the project location the City of Arlington is a key stakeholder in the project. As such, the City of
Arlington has participated in the project development since its inception and continues to be engaged in all
project components that affect and enhance adjacent properties in which Arlington has a direct interest.
Lakeshore Drive will be constructed as a new two—lane divided minor artenal road with bike lanes from
Wilbarger Street to Berry Street in accordance with the City's Master Thoroughfare Plan and consistent with
the Lake Arlington Master Plan. Lakeshore Drive will be developed utilizing the techniques of low impact
and context sensitive design. This project also includes a new water line along Lakeshore Drive and sanitary
sewer manhole adjustments.
This contract is funded from the 2008 Bond Program and Water Capital Projects. In addition to the contract
cost, $191,644.00 will be included for project management and support costs for a project total in the amount
of $1,149 863 00.
M/WBE Office: Halff Associates, Inc., is in compliance with the City's BDE Ordinance by committing to 25
percent SBE participation on this project. The City's SBE goal on this project is 23 percent.
This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 5, Mapsco 79Z and 93D.
