RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of Amendment No. 1 to City Secretary Contract No. 48662, a Professional
Engineering Services Agreement with Peloton Land Solutions, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $358,411.00 for the design of North Riverside

DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to seek authorization of Amendment No. 1 to the existing engineering services
agreement with Peloton Land Solutions, Inc. for improvements to North Riverside Drive from Shiver Road to North Tarrant Parkway (N Riverside Dr
(Shiver NT Pkwy) - City Project No. 100453). Peloton Land Solutions, Inc. was awarded contract No. 48662, M&C number C-28092, by City
Council on January 31, 2017 and the contract has not been amended to date.
The original contract scope included the design of a 4-lane divided roadway with drainage, street lights, 10-foot shared paths, and a roundabout at
the intersection of North Tarrant Parkway and North Riverside Drive. The consultant has achieved the 90% milestone of the contract scope and an
intersection analysis recently performed indicates a traffic signal would be more effective in the long term. The intersection currently experiences
high traffic, growth is anticipated to increase with the development of the area.
Approval of this amendment will provide for the re -design of the intersection improvements to construct a signalized intersection in lieu of a
roundabout. In addition, certain areas will be re -surveyed to reflect recent development and utility relocation activity. The remainder of the project
scope will remain unchanged.
Peloton Land Solutions proposes to complete the additional work for a fee not to exceed $358,411.00. Staff considers the fee to be fair and
reasonable for the scope of services proposed. The following table summarizes services for the project.
