The agreement was subsequently revised by Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $ 305,400.00, authorized December 10, 2024 (M&C 24-1135) that primarily provided design for two inverted siphons that are necessary on the project and design for a 16-inch water main that will connect a developer proposed water main on the north end of the water main to an existing City -owned 16-inch water main near the Silver Creek/Heron Drive intersection and the preparation of a bid package to separate the original project into two parts for construction. Amendment No. 2 provides for construction management, resident project representative, and construction support services including shop drawings, submittal reviews, change order review, and record drawings. Construction of the Silver Creek Lift Station project was advertised for bid on June 4, 2025, and June 11, 2025, in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram. On July 10, 2025, the following bids were received: Bidder Amount Contract Time Acadia Services, LLC $10,969,853.00 550 Calendar Days Fort Worth Civil Constructors, $11,043,182.00 LLC In addition to the contract cost, $360,439.00 is required for project management, material testing and inspection and $274,246.00 is provided for project contingency. This project will have no impact on the Water Department's operating budget when completed. Available cash within the Water and Sewer portfolio and the City's portfolio along with the appropriation authority authorized under 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 of the City to reimburse itself from tax-exempt bond proceeds. 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. Funding is budgeted in the Commercial Paper project within the W&S Commercial Paper Fund for the purpose of funding of the Silver Creek LS/FM/GM project.
