Mayor and Council Communication
COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 7/1712012
DATE: Tuesday, July 17, 2012 REFERENCE NO.: C-25747
LOG NAME: 80GATEWAY PARK OXBOW CDM SMITH AGREEMENT
SUBJECT:
Authorize Execution of an Engineering Agreement with CDM Smith, Inc., in the Amount of$519,402.00 for
the Design and Engineering of the Gateway Park Oxbow Development (COUNCIL DISTRICT 4)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of an engineering Agreement with CDM
Smith, Inc., in the amount of$519,402.00 for the design and engineering of the Gateway Park Oxbow
Development.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication is to authorize the execution of an engineering
Agreement with CDM Smith, Inc., in the amount of$519,402.00 for the design and preparation of
construction documents for park improvements in the Gateway Park Oxbow area located north of 1-30 and
west of Beach Street. Staff considers this fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services
proposed. Improvements will include construction of new park entry identification element, multi-use trails,
concession/restroom facility, park road and parking lots, competition soccer fields to include lighting and
irrigation, ecosystem restoration, landscaping and other park improvements.
On May 14, 2002, (M&C G-13624) the City Council adopted the updated Gateway Park Master Plan. The
Master Plan included the potential joint venture to develop recreational and ecosystem restoration facilities
in the area of the Trinity River Oxbow at Gateway Park with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE).
On January 13, 2004, (M&C G-14221) the City Council authorized the adoption of appropriation
ordinances and an interlocal Agreement authorizing the resubmission and acceptance of an application for
a 2004 Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD), Regional Park Grant and accepted funds from
Streams and Valleys, Inc. (S&V), and the Tarrant Regional Water District (TRWD). In August 2004,
TPWD awarded the City of Fort Worth a $2,000,000.00 regional grant for Gateway Park with the award
contract executed in March 2005. On January 13, 2004, (M&C G-14221) the $2,000,000.00 regional grant
was matched with $2,500,000.00 in combined funding from City, S&V and TRWD for a total project
funding amount of$4,500,000.00, as appropriated.
Since March 2005, a number of initiatives outside the City's purview deferred the project proceedings.
Land acquisition necessary for incorporation into the Gateway Park Oxbow project by the TRWD was -
delayed indefinitely pending appropriation of federal funds for land acquisition and the ongoing design of
the Beach Street/Gateway Park Oxbow park entry by the USACOE. In June 2006, the City requested the
USACOE to consider merging of the Gateway Park Oxbow project with the Trinity River Vision Central
City (TRV- CC) project because both projects were occuring simultaneously and jointly impacting
floodplain valley storage requirements.
Project deferral continued from March 2005 to May 2008, pending authorization to merge both projects
and the appropriation of federal funding for land acquisition. In May 2008, the USACOE passed a Record
Logname: 80GATEWAY PARK OXBOW CDM SMITH AGREEMENT Page 1 of 2
of Decision allowing the Gateway Park Oxbow project to merge with the TRV- CC project. In February
2010, TRWD requested federal stimulus funds for the TRV- CC project and by November 2011, the
USACOE moved forward with design of mass site grading within the Gateway Park Oxbow necessary for
floodplain valley storage.
In March 2012, the Trinity River Vision Authority (TRVA) recommended to the Parks and Community
Service Department to proceed with the Gateway Park Oxbow project design in order for the project to be
"shovel ready"when federal funding became available for the mass grading project within the Gateway
Park Oxbow area. This action will allow for the project design and award of construction contract to be
ready to commence when the USACOE mass grading project is completed. It is estimated the mass
grading project will commence during 2012 and be completed in 2014.
CDM Smith, Inc., is in compliance with the City's M/WBE Ordinance by committing to 29 percent
participation. The City's goal on this project is 28 percent.
Gateway Park Oxbow is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 4.

DISCUSSION:
The overall objective of this Mayor and Council Communication(M&C)is to enable the City of Fort Worth
to fulfill the requirements of the 2004 Regional Park State Grant for the Gateway Oxbow Project.In order to
satisfy the representations made in the grant application,improvements must be made in the eastern area of
Gateway Park north of IH-30 and east of Beach Street. At the appropriate time,the Trinity River Vision
Authority will complete 100 percent design of the original project and will construct consistent with the
Master Plan.
The recommended actions,including authorizing final payment for design and engineering services
previously completed and termination of the existing design and engineering services contract(by mutual
consent)coupled with the authorization to enter into a new design and engineering services contract to
complete the design of improvements in the eastern area of the park,will achieve this objective.
This matter,including previous actions by the City and actions by others which have had a direct effect on
the originally proposed project are explained below:
Amendment and Termination:
On May 14, 2002, (M&C G-13624)the City Council adopted the updated Gateway Park Master Plan. The
Master Plan included the potential joint venture to develop recreational and ecosystem restoration facilities in
the area of the Trinity River Oxbow at Gateway Park with the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers(USACOE).
On January 13, 2004, (M&C G-14221)the City Council authorized the adoption of appropriation ordinances
and an Interlocal Agreement authorizing the resubmission and acceptance of an application for a 2004 Texas
Parks and Wildlife Department(TPWD),regional park grant and accepted a donation from Streams and
Valleys,Inc. (S&V),and the Tarrant Regional Water District(TRWD). In August 2004,TPWD awarded the
City of Fort Worth a$2,000,000.00 regional grant for Gateway Park with the award contract executed in
March 2005.The$2,000,000.00 regional grant was matched with$2,500,000.00 in combined funding from
the City,S&V and the TRWD for a total project funding amount of$4,500,000.00.
Since March 2005,a number of initiatives outside the City's purview deferred the project. Specifically,land
acquisition necessary for incorporation into the Gateway Park Oxbow project by the TRWD was delayed
indefinitely pending appropriation of federal funds for land acquisition and the ongoing design of the Beach
Street/Gateway Park Oxbow entry by the USACOE.In June 2006, the City requested the USACOE to
consider merging the Gateway Park Oxbow Project with the Trinity River Vision Central City(TRV—CC)
project because both projects were occurring simultaneously and jointly impacting floodplain valley storage
requirements.
Project deferral continued through May 2008,when the USACOE passed a Record of Decision allowing the
Gateway Park Oxbow Project to merge with the TRV—CC Project. In February 2010,TRWD requested
federal stimulus funds for the TRV—CC Project and by November 2011, the USACOE moved forward with
design of mass site grading within the Gateway Park Oxbow necessary for floodplain valley storage.
In March 2012,the Trinity River Vision Authority(TRVA)recommended the Parks and Community Service
Department proceed with the Gateway Park Oxbow project design in order for the project to be "shovel
ready" when federal funding became available for the mass grading project. On July 17, 2012, (M&C
C-25747)the City Council authorized the execution of an Engineering Agreement with CDM Smith,Inc., in
the amount of$519,402.00 for the design and engineering of the City's facilities for the Gateway Park
Oxbow development.
Due to the revised schedule of the USACOE mass grading project funding,final design and construction of
the City's facilities within the Gateway Park Oxbow cannot be completed in the timeframe required by the
TPWD regional grant's extended deadline(construction completion by December 31, 2015). The CDM
Smith,Inc., design is approximately 50 percent complete.The USACOE mass grading/valley storage project
has been completed and bidding will commence in the summer of 2015. Construction is anticipated to begin
fall of 2015 and run through mid-2017. When the USACOE work is completed the TRVA will complete the
remaining 50 percent of the construction documents and proceed with bidding and construction of the
recreational facilities.
Amendment No. 1 to the original Agreement is to compensate CDM Smith,Inc.,for services performed
outside the original contract scope of services and includes additional items for design related to the TPWD
grant and assisting in additional budget impact studies and cost estimates requested by TRVA and CFW.
Staff considers this fee to be fair and reasonable for the additional services performed.Upon approval of this
M&C, the amendment will be processed and then the contract terminated. CDM Smith,Inc.,has been
consulted and informed in writing of Staffs recommendation of the termination. CDM Smith,Inc., does not
object to this action.
Reprogramming Funds:
In order to use the TPWD funds by the December 31, 2015 deadline, Staff recommends authorization of the
execution of an Engineering Agreement with CDM Smith,Inc.,in the amount of$294,800.00 for the design
and preparation of construction documents for park improvements in Gateway Park east of Beach Street.
Staff considers this fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services proposed.
Improvements will include replacement of portions of concrete trails and up to eight pedestrian bridges,
removal of two existing canoe launches and modifications to the upper decks of the launches,proposed
concrete trails and a trailhead,including parking,pavilion,tables,benches,portable toilet facility and solar
powered security lighting. It is expected that the construction contractor will be procured using the
Construction Manager at Risk(CMAR)method in order to accelerate the design/construction process as
necessary to meet the December 31, 2015 deadline.Reprogramming the funds in this manner has been
approved by TPWD.
MWWBE Office—CDM Smith,Inc.,is in compliance with the City's BDE Ordinance by committing to 18
percent SBE participation. The City's goal on this project is 18 percent.
Gateway Park Redevelopment—East is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 4.
