DISCUSSION: The emergency work provides for pavement repairs in areas where emergency water main breaks attributable to the Summer 2022 Heat Wave were conducted. It is beyond the City's ability as well as those of on-call emergency contractors to handle the volume of pavement repairs required following the water main break repairs. Using emergency contracting procedures,the Water Department engaged Jackson Construction, Ltd.(City Secretary Contract No.57890)and Texas Materials Group, Inc.dba TexasBit(City Secretary No.57889)each in the amount of$750,000.00 to assist with the pavement repairs subsequent to water main repairs. Section 252.022 of the Local Government Code exempts from normal bidding requirements that are necessary to preserve or protect public health or safety of the municipality's residents and procurements that are necessary because of unforeseen damage to public machinery,equipment or property. The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication(M&C)is to secure funding to compensate both contractors after final projects have been established and to speed up the project closeout process. It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its 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, as follows: Capital Revised Project FY2022 CIP Budget Change Fund Authority FY2022 Name Name Appropriations (Increase/Decrease) g gud et 56002- W&S 104275— Capital Emer Pave $0.00 This M&C $750,000.00$750,000.00 Projects Ratify JCL Fund 56002- W&S 104276— Capital Emer Pav $0.00 This M&C $750,000.00 $750,000.00 Projects Ratify TxBit Fund Funding is budgeted in the Transfer to Water/Sewer account of the Water and Sewer operating budget for the purpose of funding the Emergency Pavement Repair projects within the Water&Sewer Capital Projects Fund.
