DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize execution of Amendment No. 2 for City Secretary Contract (CSC)
No. 58813, with AECOM Technical Services, Inc. (AECOM), and Amendment No. 1 for CSC No. 58805 with Shield Engineering Group, PLLC
(Shield), increasing the amount of each contract to a total of $1,000,000.00 each for staff extension services in managing park and recreation
capital projects. These agreements will provide up to two full-time equivalent (FTE) project managers per contract for the next 12-18 months to
assist with the current and expanded workload from the 2022 Bond Program and federally funded projects.
On December 13, 2022 (M&C 22-1023) City Council authorized execution of professional services agreements with AECOM and Shield, in the
amount up to $500,000.00 each for staff extension services in managing park and recreation capital projects.
On April 1, 2025, Amendment #1 for CSC No. 58813, with AECOM, was administratively executed. Amendment #1 for CSC No. 58813
addressed an increase to the hourly rate for 2025 & 2026 for staff extension services, but did not increase the total amount of the contract.
AECOM has successfully completed master planning efforts for Ciquio Vasquez and Gateway Parks, overseen design document preparation and
bid award for both Ciquio Vasquez and Sycamore Parks and overseen Gateway Park design to 60%. AECOM has also managed Texas Parks
and Wildlife grant requirements for Sycamore Park and extensive project collaboration on Gateway Park design. AECOM will continue to

construction phasing.

Works Storm Water Division; dredging at 3 sites, including Candleridge Park (French Lake), Oakland Lake Park (Fosdic Lake) and Pecan Valley
Golf Course (pond on #7); dam assessment at Greenbriar Park and design preparation for road and parking improvements at Highland Hills,
Cobb, Trinity, South Z. Boaz Park and Pecan Valley Golf Course. Shield will continue to administer the PARD drainage, erosion control, dredging
and dam projects, as outlined in the 2022 Bond Program.
Funding for the agreements is budgeted in the PARD's Capital Improvement Program funds and/or 2022 bond program funds for the purpose of
funding current & future capital projects as needed. A verification of fund availability will be perFormed by PARD prior to any assignment of staff to a
project.
As some of these projects are included in the 2022 Bond Program, the City's Extendable Commercial Paper Program (ECP) (M&C 22-0607;
Ordinance 25675-08-2022) provides liquidity to support the appropriation. Available resources will be used to make any interim progress
payments until debt is issued. Once debt associated with a project is sold, debt proceeds will reimburse the interim financing source in
accordance with the statement expressing official Intent to Reimburse that was adopted as part of the ordinance canvassing the bond election
(Ordinance 25515-05-2022).
M/WBE Office - The Business Equity Division placed a 7.60% business equity goal on these contracts. Both Shield Engineering Group, PLLC
and AECOM TECHNICAL SERVICES, INC., submitted a Prime Waiver Form, which is in accordance with the City's Business Equity Ordinance.
Both Shield Engineering Group, PLLC and AECOM TECHNICAL SERVICES, INC., will be self-perForming the entire scope of the contract. A
1295 form is not required for AECOM Technical Services, Inc. because they are publicly traded.
The projects are located in ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:

improvement program projects to support the approval of the above recommendation and execution of the amendments to the professional
service agreements. Prior to an expenditure being incurred, the Park & Recreation Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of
funds.
