Secretary Contract No.56059), in the amount of$155,200.00,for an evaluation and to determine whether to replace or upgrade the existing
chlorine scrubber system.
The proposed Amendment will provide plans,specifications,and contract documents for the replacement of existing chlorine scrubber system.
Carollo Engineers, Inc.,proposes to perform the additional services not to exceed fee of$450,000.00.Staff considers the fee to be fair and
reasonable for the scope of services proposed. In addition to the amendment amount,$80,000.00 is required for project management and
material testing.
This project will have no impact on the Water Department operating budget when complete.
It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its Capital Improvement Program(CIP)plan throughout the fiscal year,instead of within
the annual budget ordinance,as projects commence,additional funding needs are identified,and to comply with bond covenants.The actions in
the M&C will appropriate funds in support of the Water's portion of the City of Fort Worth's Fiscal Years 2022-2026 Capital Improvement Program,

This project is anticipated to be included in a future revenue bond issue for the Water&Sewer Fund.Available cash within the Water and Sewer
portfolio and the City's portfolio along with the appropriation authority authorized under the Callable Commercial Paper Program(CP)will be used
to provide interim financing for this project until debt is issued. Once debt associated with this project is sold, bond proceeds will be used to
reimburse the Water and Sewer portfolio and the City's portfolio in accordance with the attached Reimbursement Resolution.Under federal law,
debt must be issued within approximately three years in order for these expenses to be reimbursable.Adoption of the attached resolution does not
obligate the City to sell bonds,but preserves the ability to reimburse itself from tax-exempt bond proceeds.
Business Equity: Carollo Engineers, Inc.agrees to maintain its initial M/WBE commitment of seven percent that it made on the original agreement
and extend and maintain that same M/WBE commitment of seven percent to this first amendment.Therefore Carollo Engineers, Inc.remains in
compliance with the City's Business Equity Ordinance and attests to its commitment by its signature on the Acceptance of Previous M/WBE
Commitment form executed by an authorized representative of its company.
This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 8 and serves all COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
