DISCUSSION:
Approval of this Mayor and Council Communication will authorize execution of an engineering agreement in an amount not to exceed$250,000.00
to assist the City of Fort Worth (City)in the implementation of the Stormwater Management Program's Storm Drain Rehabilitation Program In-
House Closed-Circuit Television(CCTV)project by providing the following:training to use the equipment and software;assisting staff with pipe
evaluations to identify and prioritize corrective rehab measures;reviewing and performing QA/QC of data;and, development of processes and
protocols needed for a self-sufficient In-House Program for our Storm Drain Rehabilitation Program.
The development of a Storm Drain Rehabilitation Program is a Level 1 Priority, Key Initiative included in the 2018 Council adopted Stormwater
Management Program Master Plan. Storm drain rehabilitation is one of the Stormwater Management Program's top priorities due to the life
safety risk that can happen when deteriorating storm drain pipe creates sinkholes.
From a Request for Qualifications(RFQ)for storm water management professional and engineering services dated July 29,2021 and August 5,
2021, RJN Group, Inc.,was selected as the most qualified consultant for this work based on published selection criteria and their submitted
specific proposal to provide pipe assessment and condition program services. RJN Group, Inc. proposes to perform the scope of work for this
contract for a not-to-exceed fee of$250,000.00. The City will issue individual task orders to authorize the consultant to perform work under this
agreement until such time as the contract funds have been expended.The City,at its sole option, may renew this contract three times under the
same terms and conditions. Staff considers the fee to be fair and reasonable for the anticipated services to be performed.
This contract will not result in any additional annual operating cost for the Transportation and Public Works (TPW)Stormwater Management
Division.
The funding was included in the FY2022-2026 Capital Improvement Program for project P00114.In order to administratively track the spending of
all funding sources in one project,appropriation ordinances are needed to appropriate additional funds into the programmable project to jointly
funded future Stormdrain Pipe Rehab child projects. The action in this M&C will amend the Fiscal Year 2022 Adopted Budget as approved in
connection with Ordinance 25073-09-2021,Section 6,as listed on page 27.
