DISCUSSION:
This Mayor and Council Communication is to authorize the preparation of plans and specifications for the construction of Westside III Ground
Storage Tank and Westside IV and Westside V Pump Station.
Growth within west Fort Worth and its Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) requires continuous improvements to the water distribution system in order
to provide and maintain reliable water service to existing and proposed developments within the Westside III, IV, and V pressure planes. The
ground storage tank will provide additional storage capacity in the Westside III pressure plane while the pump stations will provide additional
pumping capacity.
Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. proposes to provide all the necessary design and construction administration services for a fee of
$1,242,804.00. Staff considers the proposed fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services proposed.
In addition to the contract amount, $314,125.00 is required for project management, real property acquisitions, and utility coordination. This project
will have no impact on the Water Department Operating budget when complete.
