Capital Improvement Program
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached appropriation ordinance adjusting estimated receipts and appropriations in the Water
& Sewer Bond 2017 A Fund by increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Mary's Creek Lift Station Site & Force Main Alignment
project (City Project No. 103648) in the amount of $4,000,000.00 and decreasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Unspecified

DISCUSSION:
On June 14, 2022, Mayor and Council Communication (M&C 22-0412), the City Council authorized an engineering agreement with Plummer
Associates, Inc. (City Secretary Contract No. 57712) in the amount of $1,761,590.00 for the Mary's Creek Lift Station Site & Force Main
Alignment project design and site selection. The original scope of services included an alignment study, the preparation of 60% design plans and
specification for the proposed force main, lift stations site selection, design survey, geotechnical investigations, easement document preparation,
and coordination with various agencies. The agreement was subsequently revised by Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $99,851.00 authorized
administratively February 7, 2024, that provided additional topographic and archaeological survey and Amendment No. 2 in the amount of
$2,159,580.00 authorized May 14, 2024 (M&C 24-0421) provided for final design, geotechnical investigations, slope stability study, gabion
structures design, storm water modeling for lift station sites, and environmental permitting.
The $4,000,000.00 appropriation requested in this M&C will provide for additional real property acquisition costs for acquisition of easements for
construction of the project. Additional funding for real property acquisitions may be requested.
This project will have no impact on the Water Department's operating budget when complete. 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 amend the City of Fort Worth's Fiscal Year 2025-
2029 Capital Improvement Program as follows:
