Extension of Summerfields Boulevard from North Riverside Drive to Cannonwood Drive in an Amount Not to Exceed $32,300.00 for a Revised
Contract Amount of $1,516,635.00 (2014 Bond Program)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize execution of Amendment No. 3 to the City Secretary Contract No. 45844, a professional
engineering services agreement with Baird, Hampton & Brown, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $32,300.00 for engineering services to provide
alternative roadway alignments and right-of-way exhibits for the extension of two (2) west -bound lanes on Summerfields Boulevard from North
Riverside Drive to Cannonwood Drive as well as additional construction support services for the North Riverside Drive Project, from Old Denton
Road to N. Tarrant Parkway Project (City Project No. CO2272).
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to seek authorization of Amendment No. 3 to the existing engineering services
agreement with Baird, Hampton & Brown, Inc. for engineering services to produce alternative roadway alignments and right-of-way exhibits for the
extension of two (2) west -bound lanes on Summerfields Boulevard from North Riverside Drive to Cannonwood Drive as well as for additional
construction support services for the North Riverside Drive Project, from Old Denton Road to N. Tarrant Parkway Project (City Project No.
CO2272).
Baird, Hampton & Brown, Inc. was awarded contract No. 45844, M&C C-26833, on June 10, 2014. On May 3, 2016, the City Council approved
Amendment No. 1 (M&C C-27695) for channel improvements while Amendment No. 2 was approved administratively on December 27, 2019 for
extending the west -bound lanes of Summerfields Boulevard from North Riverside Drive to Cannonwood Drive.
The original contract scope included the design of a four -lane divided roadway with drainage, water & sanitary sewer improvements, street lights,
and ten -foot shared paths from Old Denton Road to N. Tarrant Parkway as well as roundabouts at the intersections of North Riverside Drive and
Summerfields Boulevard or Thompson Drive. Baird, Hampton & Brown, Inc. is currently working on the preliminary design to extend the west-
bound lanes of Summerfields Boulevard (Amendment No. 2). The goal of Amendment No. 3 is to achieve consistency with the existing roadway,
mirror adjacent roadway section, and provide for a greater level of construction services, not anticipated in the original contract.
This project is included in the 2014 Bond Program. Available resources within the General Fund will be used to provide interim financing until debt
is issued. Once debt associated with the project is sold, bond proceeds will reimburse the General Fund in accordance with the statement
expressing official Intent to Reimburse that was adopted as part of the ordinance canvassing the bond election (Ordinance No. 21241-05-2014)
and subsequent actions taken by the Mayor and Council.
Approval of this amendment will provide staff with additional construction support for the North Riverside Drive project as well as a completed
design of Summerfields Boulevard. The extension of Summerfields Boulevard will be added to the existing construction contract of North Riverside
drive by a change order.
Baird, Hampton & Brown, Inc. proposes to complete the additional work for a fee not to exceed $32,300.00. Staff considers the fee to be fair and
reasonable for the scope of services proposed. The following table summarizes services for the project.
