RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the temporary closure of Merrick Street between Diaz Avenue and Como Park Avenue from
March 9, 2022 to July 17, 2022 for construction activities.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Fort Worth Transportation and Public Works Department (TPW) requests the temporary closure of Merrick Street between Diaz
Avenue and Como Park Avenue to make dam rehabilitation improvements (City Project Number 101592). These improvements serve to correct
erosion damage to the earthen Como Lake Dam as required by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. Work includes removal of
guardrails to accommodate heavy grading work, placement of a rock rip rap on the lake side of the dam, and new sidewalks along the dam
structure.
Traffic control plans for this project have been previously accepted.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that approval of this recommendation will have no material effect on City funds.
