LOG NAME: 2022 AGREEMNT FOR THE CONSTRUCTN,MAINTENANCE,&OPERATN
SUBJECT
(CD 8)Adopt Attached Resolution Authorizing Execution of an Agreement for Construction,Maintenance,and Operation of Safety Lighting
System along State Highway 180(East Lancaster Avenue)from Pine Street to Riverside Drive with the Texas Department of Transportation
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing the execution of an agreement for construction,maintenance,
and operation of the Safety Lighting System along State Highway 180(East Lancaster Avenue)from Pine Street to Riverside Drive with the Texas
Department of Transportation.
DISCUSSION:
The Transportation and Public Works(TPW)department has a project in the final design phase to replace the existing street lights on State
Highway 180(East Lancaster Avenue)from Pine Street to Riverside Drive(City Project No.103322).
The project scope requires a Roadway Illumination Permit approval from Texas Department of Transportation(TxDOT)because the improvements
are within TxDOT Right-of-Way.TPW is coordinating with TxDOT for the Permit approval.After several correspondences between City of Fort
Worth(City)and TxDOT,it was determined that the Street Light Maintenance and Operation agreement for the proposed project was not included
in the existing Municipal Maintenance Agreements authorized via Mayor and Council Communication(M&C)C-22504 and M&C C-13938.On
February 15,2022,TxDOT has asked that City to execute the agreement for construction,maintenance,and operation of Safety Lighting System
along State Highway(East Lancaster Avenue)180 from Pine Street to Riverside Drive,as shown on the attached map.
Staff agrees that the safety lighting system's construction,maintenance,and operation responsibilities are fair and equitable since the City
currently maintains the existing street lights on the project corridor and would not impose additional maintenance costs on the City of Fort Worth.
The project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 8.
A Form 1295 is not required because:This contract will be with a govemmental entity,state agency or public institution of higher education:
TXDOT
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that approval of this recommendation will have no material effect on City funds.
