The ENGINEER shall perform its services:
(1) with the professional skill and care ordinarily provided by competent
engineers practicing under the same or similar circumstances and
professional license; and

(2) In soils, foundation, groundwater, and other subsurface investigations,
the actual characteristics may vary significantly between successive
test points and sample intervals and at locations other than where
observations, exploration, and investigations have been made.
Because of the inherent uncertainties in subsurface evaluations,
changed or unanticipated underground conditions may occur that could
affect the total PROJECT cost and/or execution. These conditions and
cost/execution effects are not the responsibility of the ENGINEER.
E. Preparation of Engineering Drawings
The ENGINEER will provide to the CITY the original drawings of all plans in
ink on reproducible mylar sheets and electronic files in .pdf format, or as
otherwise approved by CITY, which shall become the property of the CITY.
CITY may use such drawings in any manner it desires; provided, however,
that the ENGINEER shall not be liable for the use of such drawings for any
project other than the PROJECT described herein.
F. Engineer's Personnel at Construction Site
(1) The presence or duties of the ENGINEER's personnel at a construction site,
whether as on -site representatives or otherwise, do not make the ENGINEER
or its personnel in any way responsible for those duties that belong to the
CITY and/or the CITY's construction contractors or other entities, and do not
relieve the construction contractors or any other entity of their obligations,
duties, and responsibilities, including, but not limited to, all construction
methods, means, techniques, sequences, and procedures necessary for
coordinating and completing all portions of the construction work in
accordance with the contract documents and any health or safety precautions
required by such construction work. The ENGINEER and its personnel have
no authority to exercise any control over any construction contractor or other
entity or their employees in connection with their work or any health or safety
precautions.
(2) Except to the extent of specific site visits expressly detailed and set forth in
Attachment A, the ENGINEER or its personnel shall have no obligation or
responsibility to visit the construction site to become familiar with the progress
or quality of the completed work on the PROJECT or to determine, in general,
if the work on the PROJECT is being performed in a manner indicating that
the PROJECT, when completed, will be in accordance with the contract
documents, nor shall anything in the contract documents or this
AGREEMENT between CITY and ENGINEER be construed as requiring
ENGINEER to make exhaustive or continuous on -site inspections to discover
latent defects in the work or otherwise check the quality or quantity of the work
on the PROJECT. If the ENGINEER makes on -site observation(s) of a

Revised Date: August 18, 2025

deviation from the contract documents, the ENGINEER shall inform the CITY.
(3) When professional certification of performance or characteristics of materials,
systems or equipment is reasonably required to perform the services set forth

certification to establish materials, systems or equipment and performance
criteria to be required in the contract documents.
G. Opinions of Probable Cost, Financial Considerations, and Schedules
(1) The ENGINEER shall provide opinions of probable costs based on the
current available information at the time of preparation, in accordance
with Attachment A.
(2) In providing opinions of cost, financial analyses, economic feasibility
projections, and schedules for the PROJECT, the ENGINEER has no
control over cost or price of labor and materials; unknown or latent
conditions of existing equipment or structures that may affect operation
or maintenance costs; competitive bidding procedures and market
conditions; time or quality of performance by third parties; quality, type,
management, or direction of operating personnel; and other economic
and operational factors that may materially affect the ultimate PROJECT
cost or schedule. Therefore, the ENGINEER makes no warranty that
the CITY's actual PROJECT costs, financial aspects, economic
feasibility, or schedules will not vary from the ENGINEER's opinions,
analyses, projections, or estimates.
H. Construction Progress Payments
Recommendations by the ENGINEER to the CITY for periodic construction
progress payments to the construction contractor will be based on the
ENGINEER's knowledge, information, and belief from selective sampling and
observation that the work has progressed to the point indicated. Such
recommendations do not represent that continuous or detailed examinations
have been made by the ENGINEER to ascertain that the construction
contractor has completed the work in exact accordance with the contract
documents; that the final work will be acceptable in all respects; that the
ENGINEER has made an examination to ascertain how or for what purpose
the construction contractor has used the moneys paid; that title to any of the
work, materials, or equipment has passed to the CITY free and clear of liens,
claims, security interests, or encumbrances; or that there are no other matters
at issue between the CITY and the construction contractor that affect the
amount that should be paid.

*Water main in inaccessible easement at rear of residences will be relocated in public right-
of-way as shown on the attached location map.
In addition to the contract amount of $504,261.00 (Water $214,251.00; Sewer $290,010.00) is
required for project management, real property acquisition, utility coordination, and material
testing. This project will have no impact on the Water Department's operating budget when
completed. The sewer component of the project is part of the Water Department's Sanitary
Sewer Overflow Initiative Program.
Available cash within the Water and Sewer portfolio and the City's portfolio along with the
appropriation authority authorized under the Callable Commercial Paper Program (CP) will
be used to provide interim financing for this project until the debt is issued. Once debt of this
project is sold, bonds 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 (FY), instead of within the annual budget ordinance, as
projects commence, additional funding needs are identified, and to comply with bond
covenants. The actions in the M&C will appropriate funds in support of the Water's portion of
the City of Fort Worth's Fiscal Years 2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program.
Funding is budgeted in the Commercial Paper project within the W&S Commercial Paper
Fund for the Water Department for the purpose of funding the WSM-E W/S REPL
2025RidgleaPH4 project.
Appropriations for the WSM-E W/S REPL 2025RidgleaPH4 project are as depicted below:

project to support the execution of the agreement. Prior to an expenditure being incurred, the
Water Department has the responsibility of verifying the availability of funds.
