RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 to City Secretary Contract {No. 24975} with
Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. for additional design services and construction document revisions
for three streetscape pilot projects in the North Main Street corridor between the Tarrant County
Courthouse and 27th Street for an additional fee not to exceed $164,500, thereby increasing the total
contract amount to $635,500; and
2. Authorize the transfer of $95,000 from the Contract Street Maintenance Fund to the Specially Funded
Capital Projects Fund; and
3. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
Specially Funded Capital Projects Fund by $95,000 from available funds for the construction of a

Included in the $164,500 contract amendment are additional design fees required to revise the final
construction p#ans and specifications in accordance with Texas Department of Transportation {TxDOT} and
Texas Department of labor Relations {TDC_R} s#andards. The TD~R standards changed while the designs

Committee requested a breakdown of the project budget to reflect the design items approved by the
Committee. The budget that was presented set aside $144,444 of the 1998 Capital Improvement Program
{CIP} funds allocated far the North Main Streetscape project for public art within the North Main Street
corridor.
It has since been determined that the public art is not an allowable expense under the 1998 bond
covenants, since public art was not included in the 1998 CIP. In order to honor the commitment of having
public art as a part of the North Main Streetscape project, staff has identified funds in the Transportation
and Public Works Deparkment operating budget for Contract Street Maintenence that can be used #or this
purpose. Correspondingly, we propose to use the $95,444 for 1998 CIP street projects to offset the
reduction of funds in Contract Street Maintainence. The North Main Streetscape project budget will pay €or
the $5,444 for the redesign of the selected site for the public art sculpture since the design of the site is a
part of the overall streetscape project.
Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. has committed to completing all the additional design and construction
document revisions within three months. With this schedule, the construction documents will be submitted
to TxDOT in mid-February 2444. Review by TxDOT takes an estimated six months, after which, the project
would be advertised for construction by TxDOT in July 2444. With approval of this Mayor and Council
Communication, there will be $3.4 million in City and federal transporkation funds available for construction
of the North Main Streetscape project and $95,444 available for construction of the Vaquero sculpture.
City staff considers these fees to be reasonable considering the extensive plan revisions that are required.
Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. is in compliance with the City's MNVBE Ordinance by committing to an
additional 25°!a MNVBE participation on this Amendment No. 2. The City"s goal on this amendment or extra
work is 25°l0.
BACKGROUND
The 1998 CIP included $1.5 million for urban design improvements to the North Main Street corridor from
the Tarrant County Courthouse to 28th Street. On June 8, 1999 {M&C C-17461 }, the City Council
authorized the City Manager to execute an agreement with Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. in the amount
of $284,444 for Conceptual Urban Design plans for the entire corridor and for construction plans for one
pilot project.
The Conceptual Design Plans recommended the preparation of construction plans for three pilot projects
instead of ane. The three pilot projects are as follows:
Paddock Gateway {Viaduct to 5th Street}
Mercado {Northside Drive to 24th Street}
Stockyards Gateway {25th Street to 27th Street}
(n order to pay for these additional picot projects, the City applied for federal franspor-Cation funds for this
