HEARING:
SUBJECT. (ALL) Authorize Execution of a Contract with Tejas Commercial Construction, LLC, in the
Amount of $750,000.00 for 2025 Small Diameter Water Main Extensions, Replacements
& Relocations Contract, 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 Tejas Commercial Construction, LLC, in the amount of
$750,000.00 for 2025 small diameter water main extensions, replacements, and relocations
which includes 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 $900,000.00, transferred
from available PayGo funds within the Water and Sewer Fund, for the purpose of funding the
Small Diameter Water Main Replacements 2025 project (City Project No. 106066) 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 Tejas Commercial Construction, LLC, in the amount of $750,000.00, for Small Diameter
Water Main Extensions, Replacements & Relocations - Contract 2025, 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 $750,000.00. 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 25, 2025 the following bids were received:
Bidder Amount Time of
Completion
Tejas Commercial Construction, $5,406,008.00 365 Calendar Days
LLC
Staff has reviewed the proposed unit prices and considers them to be fair and reasonable.
In addition to the contract amount, $150,000.00 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 Small Dia WM REPL project.as depicted below:

SECTION 00 43 37
VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW NON RESIDENT BIDDER
Texas Government Code Chapter 2252 was adopted for the award of contracts to nonresident bidders. This
law provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, nonresident bidders (out-of-state
contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside the State of Texas) bid
projects for construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest
Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required to underbid a
nonresident bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in the State which the nonresident's principal
place of business is located.
The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all nonresident bidders in order for your bid to meet
specifications. The failure of nonresident bidders to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident
bidders must check the box in Section B.
A. Nonresident bidders in the State of , our principal place of business,
are required to be percent lower than resident bidders by State Law. A copy of the
statute is attached.
Nonresident bidders in the State of our principal place of business,
are not required to underbid resident bidders.
B. The principal place of business of our company or our parent company or majority owner is
in the State of Texas. o

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 parry 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.

decrease.
12.02 Change of Contract Time
A. The Contract Time may only be changed by a Change Order.

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

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.

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
City's observations of the executed Work, and on City's review of the Application for
Payment and the accompanying data and schedules, that to the best of City's knowledge:

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 the completed Work has been damaged by the Contractor or his
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

suffered by the 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
Paragraphs 14.02.B.4.a through 14.02.B.4.e or Paragraph 15.02.A.

notice stating the reasons for such action and pay Contractor any amount remaining after
deduction of the amount so withheld. City shall pay Contractor the amount so withheld, or
any adjustment thereto agreed to by City and Contractor, when Contractor remedies the
reasons for such action.

the Application for such payment. Such payment shall be made under the terms and conditions
governing final payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of Contract Claims.
B. Partial Retainage Release. For a Contract that provides for a separate vegetative establishment
and maintenance, and test and performance periods following the completion of all other
construction in the Contract Documents for all Work locations, the City may release a portion of
the amount retained provided that all other work is completed as determined by the City. Before

Documents or any act or neglect of City related to or connected with the Contract.
ARTICLE 15 — SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERNIINATION

Time, directly attributable to any such suspension.
C. If it should become necessary to suspend the Work for an indefinite period, the Contractor shall
store all materials in such a manner that they will not obstruct or impede the public unnecessarily
nor become damaged in any way, and he shall take every precaution to prevent damage or
deterioration of the work performed; he shall provide suitable drainage about the work, and erect
temporary structures where necessary.
D. Contractor may be reimbursed for the cost of moving his equipment off the job and returning the
necessary equipment to the job when it is determined by the City that construction may be
resumed. Such reimbursement shall be based on actual cost to the Contractor of moving the
equipment and no profit will be allowed. Reimbursement may not be allowed if the equipment is
moved to another construction project for the City.

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

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.

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

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;
and
3. reasonable expenses directly attributable to termination.
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.
