City of Fort Worth Department of Engineering 811 Lamar Street, Suite 310 Fort Worth, Texas 76102 RE: Amendment Request No. 1 to Main 207R Drainage Area Sanitary Sewer System Rehabilitation and Improvements (Group 5, Contract 3), Part 6 Sewer Project No. PS46-070460410040 Dear Mr. Sholola: We are providing this letter as our request for additional compensation to address design modifications requested by the City during the development of the final plans for the referenced project. As you know, the design was completed in 1998 and advertisement for bids was stalled due to easement acquisition negotiations. The requested modifications primarily reflect revisions to the construction package units and easements. The requested modifications are summarized below: The City of Fort Worth staff requested WLA insert a portion of Main 208 into Wendy Lopez & Associates, Inc.'s (WLA) Unit 3 of the construction documents. This segment was designed and the construction plan prepared by Turner, Collie & Braden, Inc. (TCB). Insertion of this segment into WLA's construction documents required additional time for coordination with TCB, plan sheet number revisions, location map revisions, quantity revisions and construction cost opinion revisions. 2. During the final review of the construction plans; it was discovered that two Unit 4 project locations, Park Plaza Drive (L7222) and Aden Road (L7225), had been resurfaced. Neither of the project areas located on these two streets were listed on the three proposed street resurfacing lists the City provided for WLA to review. This required WLA to remove these two project locations from the construction package and provide them to the City for inclusion in a future construction contract. WLA had to move the remaining Unit 4 line 1825 Market Center Blvd. • Suite 510 • Dallas, Texas 75207 • (214) 741-7777 • FAX (214) 741-9413 Mr. Tony Sholola, P.E. July 15, 1999 Page 2 segments into Unit 2 of the construction documents. WLA revised the project quantities, construction cost opinion, location map and sheet numbers for Unit 2. WLA prepared a separate quantity summary and construction cost opinion for these two project sites. 3. During easement negotiations with Ridgmar Mall, the City became aware of a proposed construction project at Ridgmar Mall that impacted the installation of Main 207 (Unit 3). The parking area where Main 207 is located will be used as a construction staging and storage area during the Ridgmar Mall construction project. Therefore, the City requested WLA revise Unit 3 to remove the Main 208 (TCB) segment and the portion of Main 207 (WLA) within the Ridgmar Mall parking area and revise the prepare these segments for inclusion into an existing construction contract via a change order. This required WLA to revise the location maps, Main 207 construction drawings, plan sheet numbers, quantities, bid proposal and construction cost opinion for Unit 3. WLA prepared a separate quantity summary and construction cost opinion for the Main 208 and Main 207 segments that were to be included into the existing construction contract. 4. After WLA prepared the easements and construction drawings for Main 207, the Green Oaks Hotel property changed ownership. During easement negotiations with the owners of the Green Oaks Hotel property, the City requested WLA attend a meeting with the City and the property owner's representative at the Green Oaks Hotel. The proposed sanitary sewer alignment and impacts to the operations of the hotel were discussed. During the easement negotiations, the City agreed with the property owner to include specific provisions into the contract documents and on the construction plans. The City requested WLA to insert the agreed -upon provisions into the supplementary conditions of the contract documents and place notes on the construction drawings that reiterated the negotiated provisions so the contractor will be fully aware of all construction constraints while working within the Green Oaks Hotel property. This required WLA to revise the easements, contract documents and construction drawings for the portion of Main 207 that crosses the Green Oaks Hotel property. 5. Due to the extended time required for easement acquisition and the listed modifications, WLA participation in the monthly AO meetings and monthly reporting has exceeded the costs agreed upon in the original contract for the project. Attached is a table summarizing the additional services described above. We request an amendment to our contract for performance of the above described services in the lump sum amount of $8,650.00. Please see the Project Fee Summary below. Mr. Tony Sholola, P.E.

TO: A. Douglas Rademaker, Director DOE and Mike Groomer, Assistant City Manager FROM: Tony Sholola T. S DATE: July 16, 1999 RE: DESIGN FEE AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO MAIN 207R DRAINAGE AREA SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM REHABILITATION AND IMPROVE- MENTS (GROUP 5, CONTRACT 3) PART 6, SEWER PROJECT NO. PS46-070460410270, DOE NO. 1824 The proposed amendment will reimburse Wendy Lopez & Associates, Inc., (WLA) for the addi- tional services they provided on the project as requested by the City. Prior to advertising the project for bids, staff directed WLA to incorporate the plans and pay item quantities for Main 208 which was designed by another consultant into the M207 Part 6 project. Staff also directed WLA to remove the plans sheets for sewer replacement on Park Plaza Drive and Aden Road from the M207 Part 6 plans because both roads had recently been resurfaced. The sewer work on both streets will be done via a CIP project at a future date. WLA at staff's direction revised the easement documents for Green Oaks Hotel and included all special conditions on the applicable plan/profile sheet. This was necessary to accommodate the demands of the Hotel owner from whom an easement was obtained. Due to construction on Ridgmar Mall, staff directed WLA to remove a portion of M207 from the M207 Part 6 project. The sewer main will be installed via a change order to another project cur- rently under construction. Wendy Lopez & Associates, Inc., has requested reimbursement in the amount of $8,650.44 for the additional services thereby increasing the contract fee from $100,768.53 to $109,418.97. I believe this fee is fair and reasonable for additional services that were provided. Please authorize this additional design fee by your signatures on the attached contract amendment form. cc: Rakesh Chaubey, P.E., Project Manager Berdena Hamilton, Water Department Dan Pepon, Water Department MEMO 1824 ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT THE CITY OF FORT WORTH * 1000 THROCKMORTON STREET * FORT WORTH, TEXAS 76102-6311 (817) 871-7941 * Fax (817) 871-7854 ej Printed on recycled paper
