DISCUSSION: On September 28, 2021, Mayor and Council Communication (M&C 21-07701, the City Council authorized an engineering agreement in the amount of $1,291,465.00 with Freese and Nichols, Inc. (City Secretary Contract No. 56603) for the construction of West Fork Collector Parallel, Phase I Trinity River Siphon to Walker Branch Connection project. In addition, the agreement provided for erosion analysis at three locations along large sanitary sewer mains parallel to Village Creek to identify what needed to be done to protect these assets from being undermined. The agreement was subsequently revised by Amendment No.1 in the amount of $40,193.00 administratively authorized May 9, 2022, that provided for an alignment study of future collector phases to facilitate easement acquisition. Amendment No. 2 provides for the preparation of plans and specifications to protect two levee banks that are adjacent to the Village Creek Water Reclamation Facility (VCWRF). Failure to conduct the necessary bank protection improvements could result in a collapse of the levee at the two locations, leaving VCWRF susceptible to flooding from the Trinity River. Freese and Nichols, Inc., proposes to provide all the necessary services under this amendment for a fee of $613,052.00. Staff considers the proposed fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services proposed. In addition to the contract amount, $50,000.00 is required for additional project management. It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its CIP plan throughout the Fiscal Year (FY), 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 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program.
