SUBJECT. (ALL) Authorize Execution of a Contract with William J. Schultz, Inc. dba Circle C
Construction Company, in the Amount of $1,000,000.00 for 2025 Sanitary Sewer Main
Replacements, with Two Optional Renewals, and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance to Effect
a Portion of Water's Contribution to the Fiscal Years 2026-2030 Capital Improvement
Program
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize execution of a contract with William J. Schultz, Inc. dba Circle C Construction
Company, in the amount of $1,000,000.00, for 2025 Sewer Main Replacements with two
optional renewals; and
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations
in the Water and Sewer Capital Projects Fund in the amount of $1,300,000.00, transferred
from available PayGo funds within the Water and Sewer Fund, for the purpose of funding the
Sewer Main Replacement 2025 project (City Project No. 106067) to effect a portion of
Water's contribution to the Fiscal Years 2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize the execution of a
contract with William J. Schultz, Inc. dba Circle C Construction Company, in the amount of
$1,000,000.00, for the 2025 Sanitary Sewer Main Replacements, with two optional renewals.
The work to be performed under this contract consists of extending, repairing, replacing or relocating
sewer mains and services as required to provide quality sewer service to individual customers or
developers. While funding for this project comes from the Water and Sewer Capital Fund, the Water
Department issues work orders to the contractor after payment of applicable estimated costs by the
customer and/or developer.
The bid documents included a stipulation that the total quantities listed may not reflect actual
quantities and that the amount budgeted for the projects is $1,000,000.00. Final payments will be
made based on actual measured quantities. The bid documents also included a stipulation giving the
City the option to renew (subject to appropriated funding) this contract two times under the same
terms, conditions and unit prices.
The project was advertised for bid on August 20, 2025 and August 27, 2025 in the Fort Worth Star -
Telegram and on September 18, 2025 the following bids were received:
Bidder Amount Time of
Completion
William J Schultz, Inc. dba Circle C $6,897,295.32 365 Calendar
Construction Company Days
Staff has reviewed the proposed unit prices and considers them to be fair and reasonable.
In addition to the contract amount, $300,000.00 is required for project management, real property
acquisition, material testing and inspection.
It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its Capital Improvement Plan (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 Transfer to Water/Sewer account within the Water & Sewer Fund for the
purpose of funding the Sewer Main Replacements 2025 project.

Mozilla Firefox. JavaScript must be enabled. Browser cookies must be enabled.
Electronic submission is subject to electronic interface latency, which can result in transmission

not be held liable if an interested bidder or proposer is unable to submit a complete bid/response
before the published deadline due to transmission delays or any other technical issues or
obstructions. The City strongly recommends allowing sufficient time to complete the submission

If, upon being opened, a submission is unreadable to the degree that material conformance to the

rejected without liability to the City, unless such bidder provides clear and convincing evidence
(a) of the content of the submission as originally submitted and (b) that the unreadable condition

Site.
3. Any part of Contractor's capital expenses, including interest on Contractor's capital
employed for the Work and charges against Contractor for delinquent payments.
4. Costs due to the negligence of Contractor, any Subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly
employed by any of them or for whose acts any of them may be liable, including but not
limited to, the correction of defective Work, disposal of materials or equipment wrongly
supplied, and making good any damage to property.
5. Other overhead or general expense costs of any kind.
C. Contractor's Fee: When all the Work is performed on the basis of cost-plus, Contractor's fee

Change Order for an adjustment in Contract Price is determined on the basis of Cost of the
Work, Contractor's fee shall be determined as set forth in Paragraph 12.01.C.

Page 44 of 63
a. the pre -bid allowances include the cost to Contractor of materials and equipment required
by the allowances to be delivered at the Site, and all applicable taxes; and
b. Contractor's costs for unloading and handling on the Site, labor, installation, overhead,
profit, and other expenses contemplated for the pre -bid allowances have been included in
the allowances, and no demand for additional payment on account of any of the
foregoing will be valid.
C. Contingency Allowance: Contractor agrees that a contingency allowance, if any, is for the sole use
of City.
D. Prior to final payment, an appropriate Change Order will be issued to reflect actual amounts due
Contractor on account of Work covered by allowances, and the Contract Price shall be
correspondingly adjusted.
11.03 UnitPrice Work
A. Where the Contract Documents provide that all or part of the Work is to be Unit Price Work,
initially the Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an amount equal to
the sum of the unit price for each separately identified item of Unit Price Work times the estimated
quantity of each item as indicated in the Agreement.
B. The estimated quantities of items of Unit Price Work are not guaranteed and are solely for the
purpose of comparison of Bids and determining an initial Contract Price. Determinations of the
actual quantities and classifications of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor will be made by
City subject to the provisions of Paragraph 9.05.
C. Each unit price will be deemed to include an amount considered by Contractor to be adequate to
cover Contractor's overhead and profit for each separately identified item. Work described in the
Contract Documents, or reasonably inferred as required for a functionally complete installation,
but not identified in the listing of unit price items shall be considered incidental to unit price work
listed and the cost of incidental work included as part of the unit price.
D. City may make an adjustment in the Contract Price in accordance with Paragraph 12.01 if:
1. the quantity of any item of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor differs materially and
significantly from the estimated quantity of such item indicated in the Agreement; and

E. Increased or Decreased Quantities: The City reserves the right to order Extra Work in
accordance with Paragraph 10.01.

work under the Contract Documents, the altered work will be paid for at the Contract unit
price.

2. If the changes in quantities or alterations significantly change the character of work, the
Contract will be amended by a Change Order.
3. If no unit prices exist, this will be considered Extra Work and the Contract will be amended
by a Change Order in accordance with Article 12.
4. A significant change in the character of work occurs when:
a. the character of work for any Item as altered differs materially in kind or nature from that
in the Contract or
b. a Major Item of work varies by more than 25% from the original Contract quantity.
5. When the quantity of work to be done under any Major Item of the Contract is more than
125% of the original quantity stated in the Contract, then either party to the Contract may
request an adjustment to the unit price on the portion of the work that is above 125%.
6. When the quantity of work to be done under any Major Item of the Contract is less than 75%
of the original quantity stated in the Contract, then either party to the Contract may request
an adjustment to the unit price.
11.04 Plans Quantity Measurement
A. Plans quantities may or may not represent the exact quantity of work performed or material moved,
handled, or placed during the execution of the Contract. The estimated bid quantities are
designated as final payment quantities, unless revised by the governing Section or this Article.
B. If the quantity measured as outlined under "Price and Payment Procedures" varies by more than
25% (or as stipulated under "Price and Payment Procedures" for specific Items) from the total
estimated quantity for an individual Item originally shown in the Contract Documents, an
adjustment may be made to the quantity of authorized work done for payment purposes. The party
to the Contract requesting the adjustment will provide field measurements and calculations
showing the final quantity for which payment will be made. Payment for revised quantity will be
made at the unit price bid for that Item, except as provided for in Article 10.
C. When quantities are revised by a change in design approved by the City, by Change Order, or to
correct an error, or to correct an error on the plans, the plans quantity will be increased or decreased
by the amount involved in the change, and the 25% variance will apply to the new plans quantity.
D. If the total Contract quantity multiplied by the unit price bid for an individual Item is less than
$250 and the Item is not originally a plans quantity Item, then the Item may be paid as a plans
quantity Item if the City and Contractor agree in writing to fix the final quantity as a plans quantity.

1. where the Work involved is covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents, by
application of such unit prices to the quantities of the items involved (subject to the provisions
of Paragraph 11.03); or
2. where the Work involved is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents,
by a mutually agreed lump sum or unit price (which may include an allowance for overhead

of any secondary impacts that are foreseeable at the time of pricing the cost of Extra Work;
or
3. where the Work involved is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents
and agreement to a lump sum or unit price is not reached under Paragraph 12.0l.B.2, on the
basis of the Cost of the Work (determined as provided in Paragraph 11.01) plus a Contractor's
fee for overhead and profit (determined as provided in Paragraph 12.01.C).
C. Contractor's Fee: The Contractor's additional fee for overhead and profit shall be determined as
follows:
1. a mutually acceptable fixed fee; or
2. if a fixed fee is not agreed upon, then a fee based on the following percentages of the various
portions of the Cost of the Work:
a. for costs incurred under Paragraphs 11.0l.A.1, 11.0l.A.2. and 11.0l.A.3, the
Contractor's additional fee shall be 15 percent except for:
1) rental fees for Contractor's own equipment using standard rental rates;
2) bonds and insurance;
b. for costs incurred under Paragraph 11.0l.A.4 and 11.0l.A.5, the Contractor's fee shall be

Paragraphs 11.0l.A.1 and 11.0l.A.2 and that any higher tier Subcontractor and
Contractor will each be paid a fee of five percent (5%) of the amount paid to the next
lower tier Subcontractor, however in no case shall the cumulative total of fees paid be
in excess of 25%;
c. no fee shall be payable on the basis of costs itemized under Paragraphs 11.0l.A.6, and
11.01.13;
d. the amount of credit to be allowed by Contractor to City for any change which results in
a net decrease in cost will be the amount of the actual net decrease in cost plus a deduction
in Contractor's fee by an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such net decrease.
12.02 Change of Contract Time
A. The Contract Time may only be changed by a Change Order.
B. No extension of the Contract Time will be allowed for Extra Work or for claimed delay unless the
Extra Work contemplated or claimed delay is shown to be on the critical path of the Project
Schedule or Contractor can show by Critical Path Method analysis how the Extra Work or claimed
delay adversely affects the critical path.
12.03 Delays
A. Where Contractor is reasonably delayed in the performance or completion of any part of the
Work within the Contract Time due to delay beyond the control of Contractor, the Contract Time
may be extended in an amount equal to the time lost due to such delay if a Contract Claim is made
therefor. Delays beyond the control of Contractor shall include, but not be limited to, acts or
neglect by City, acts or neglect of utility owners or other contractors performing other work as
contemplated by Article 7, fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions, or acts of God.
Such an adjustment shall be Contractor's sole and exclusive remedy for the delays described in
this Paragraph.
B. If Contractor is delayed, City shall not be liable to Contractor for any claims, costs, losses, or
damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and
other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) sustained by
Contractor on or in connection with any other project or anticipated project.
C. Contractor shall not be entitled to an adjustment in Contract Price or Contract Time for delays
within the control of Contractor. Delays attributable to and within the control of a Subcontractor
or Supplier shall be deemed to be delays within the control of Contractor.
D. The Contractor shall receive no compensation for delays or hindrances to the Work, except when
direct and unavoidable extra cost to the Contractor is caused by the failure of the City to provide
information or material, if any, which is to be furnished by the City.

B. Review of Applications:
1. City will, after receipt of each Application for Payment, either indicate in writing a
recommendation of payment or return the Application to Contractor indicating reasons for
refusing payment. In the latter case, Contractor may make the necessary corrections and
resubmit the Application.
2. City's processing of any payment requested in an Application for Payment will be based on

b. the quality of the Work is generally in accordance with the Contract Documents (subject
to an evaluation of the Work as a functioning whole prior to or upon Final Acceptance, the
results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract Documents, a final determination
of quantities and classifications for Work performed under Paragraph 9.05, and any other
qualifications stated in the recommendation).
3. Processing any such payment will not thereby be deemed to have represented that:
a. inspections made to check the quality or the quantity of the Work as it has been performed
have been exhaustive, extended to every aspect of the Work in progress, or involved
detailed inspections of the Work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to City
in the Contract Documents; or
b. there may not be other matters or issues between the parties that might entitle Contractor
to be paid additionally by City or entitle City to withhold payment to Contractor; or
c. Contractor has complied with Laws and Regulations applicable to Contractor's performance
of the Work.
4. City may refuse to process the whole or any part of any payment because of subsequently
discovered evidence or the results of subsequent inspections or tests, and revise or revoke
any such payment previously made, to such extent as may be necessary to protect City from
loss because:
a. the Work is defective or completed Work has been damaged by the Contractor or
subcontractors requiring correction or replacement;
b. discrepancies in quantities contained in previous applications for payment;
c. the Contract Price has been reduced by Change Orders;
d. City has been required to correct defective Work or complete Work in accordance with
Paragraph 13.09; or

City.
E. Payment: Contractor will be paid pursuant to the requirements of this Article 14 and payment
will become due in accordance with the Contract Documents.
F. Reduction in Payment:
1. City may refuse to make payment of the amount requested because:
a. Liens have been filed in connection with the Work, except where Contractor has delivered
a specific bond satisfactory to City to secure the satisfaction and discharge of such Liens;
b. there are other items entitling City to a set-off against the amount recommended; or
c. City has actual knowledge of the occurrence of any of the events enumerated in

for such action.

15.02 City May Terminate for Cause
A. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events by way of example, but not of limitation,
may justify termination for cause:
1. Contractor's persistent failure to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents
(including, but not limited to, failure to supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable materials
or equipment, failure to adhere to the Project Schedule established under Paragraph 2.07 as
adjusted from time to time pursuant to Paragraph 6.04, or failure to adhere to the City's
Business Diversity Enterprise Ordinance #20020-12-2011established under Paragraph
6.06.D);
2. Contractor's disregard of Laws or Regulations of any public body having jurisdiction;
3. Contractor's repeated disregard of the authority of City; or
4. Contractor's violation in any substantial way of any provisions of the Contract Documents;
or
5. Contractor's failure to promptly make good any defect in materials or workmanship, or
defects of any nature, the correction of which has been directed in writing by the City; or
6. Substantial indication that the Contractor has made an unauthorized assignment of the
Contract or any funds due therefrom for the benefit of any creditor or for any other purpose;
or
7. Substantial evidence that the Contractor has become insolvent or bankrupt, or otherwise
financially unable to carry on the Work satisfactorily; or
8. Contractor commences legal action in a court of competent jurisdiction against the City.
B. If one or more of the events identified in Paragraph 15.02A. occur, City will provide written notice
to Contractor and Surety to arrange a conference with Contractor and Surety to address
Contractor's failure to perform the Work. Conference shall be held not later than 15 days, after
receipt of notice.
1. If the City, the Contractor, and the Surety do not agree to allow the Contractor to proceed to
perform the construction Contract, the City may, to the extent permitted by Laws and
Regulations, declare a Contractor default and formally terminate the Contractor's right to
complete the Contract. Contractor default shall not be declared earlier than 20 days after the
Contractor and Surety have received notice of conference to address Contractor's failure to
perform the Work.
2. If Contractor's services are terminated, Surety shall be obligated to take over and perform the
Work. If Surety does not commence performance thereof within 15 consecutive calendar days

obligations, then City, without process or action at law, may take over any portion of the
Work and complete it as described below.
a. If City completes the Work, City may exclude Contractor and Surety from the site and
take possession of the Work, and all materials and equipment incorporated into the Work
stored at the Site or for which City has paid Contractor or Surety but which are stored
elsewhere, and finish the Work as City may deem expedient.
3. Whether City or Surety completes the Work, Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any
further payment until the Work is finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds
all claims, costs, losses and damages sustained by City arising out of or resulting from
completing the Work, such excess will be paid to Contractor. If such claims, costs, losses and
damages exceed such unpaid balance, Contractor shall pay the difference to City. Such claims,
costs, losses and damages incurred by City will be incorporated in a Change Order, provided
that when exercising any rights or remedies under this Paragraph, City shall not be required to
obtain the lowest price for the Work performed.
4. Neither City, nor any of its respective consultants, agents, officers, directors or employees
shall be in any way liable or accountable to Contractor or Surety for the method by which the
completion of the said Work, or any portion thereof, may be accomplished or for the price paid
therefor.
5. City, notwithstanding the method used in completing the Contract, shall not forfeit the right
to recover damages from Contractor or Surety for Contractor's failure to timely complete the
entire Contract. Contractor shall not be entitled to any claim on account of the method used
by City in completing the Contract.
6. Maintenance of the Work shall continue to be Contractor's and Surety's responsibilities as
provided for in the bond requirements of the Contract Documents or any special guarantees
provided for under the Contract Documents or any other obligations otherwise prescribed by
law.
C. Notwithstanding Paragraphs 15.02.13, Contractor's services will not be terminated if Contractor
begins within seven days of receipt of notice of intent to terminate to correct its failure to perform
and proceeds diligently to cure such failure within no more than 30 days of receipt of said notice.
D. Where Contractor's services have been so terminated by City, the termination will not affect any
rights or remedies of City against Contractor then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any
retention or payment of moneys due Contractor by City will not release Contractor from liability.
E. If and to the extent that Contractor has provided a performance bond under the provisions of
Paragraph 5.02, the termination procedures of that bond shall not supersede the provisions of this
Article.

other material produced as a part of, or acquired in connection with the performance of,
the Work terminated by the notice of the termination; and

preservation of the property related to its contract which is in the possession of the
Contractor and in which the owner has or may acquire the rest.
C. At a time not later than 30 days after the termination date specified in the notice of termination,
the Contractor may submit to the City a list, certified as to quantity and quality, of any or all items
of termination inventory not previously disposed of, exclusive of items the disposition of which
has been directed or authorized by City.

claim to the City in the form and with the certification prescribed by the City. Unless an extension

all such claims shall be conclusively deemed waived.
F. In such case, Contractor shall be paid for (without duplication of any items):
1. completed and acceptable Work executed in accordance with the Contract Documents prior
to the effective date of termination, including fair and reasonable sums for overhead and profit on
such Work;

furnishing labor, materials, or equipment as required by the Contract Documents in connection
with uncompleted Work, plus fair and reasonable sums for overhead and profit on such expenses;

G. In the event of the failure of the Contractor and City to agree upon the whole amount to be paid
to the Contractor by reason of the termination of the Work, the City shall determine, on the basis
of information available to it, the amount, if any, due to the Contractor by reason of the termination
and shall pay to the Contractor the amounts determined. Contractor shall not be paid on account
of loss of anticipated profits or revenue or other economic loss arising out of or resulting from
such termination.
