Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Special Trust Fund Trinity River Vision Project in the amount of$271,622.00 from Tarrant County Trinity River Vision funds; 2. Authorize the transfer of$271,622.00 from the Special Trust Fund Trinity River Vision Project to the Street Improvements 2008 Fund; 3. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Street Improvements 2008 Fund in the amount of$271,622.00 consistent with the City's commitment not to exceed $26.6 million in expenditures for the Trinity River Vision Project; and 4. Authorize the execution of an Engineering Agreement with Freese and Nichols, Inc., in the amount of $271,622.00 for construction management services for the Trinity River Vision Central City Project Bridges on North Main Street, Henderson Street and White Settlement Road. DISCUSSION: In December of 2009, the City Council authorized an Engineering Design Agreement with Freese and Nichols, Inc. (FNI), for the design of the North Main Street, Henderson Street and White Settlement Road bridges in conjunction with the Trinity River Vision Central City Project. The Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) advertised the three bridge project for bids in the summer of 2014 and awarded the construction contract to the Sterling Delaware Holding Company, Inc. (Texas Sterling), in the fall of 2014. TXDOT agreed to provide construction inspection and geotechnical/materials testing services for the three bridges. The City and its project partners (Tarrant Regional Water District, Tarrant County and Trinity River Vision Authority) agreed to provide construction management services to work with TXDOT to ensure the bridges were constructed in accordance with the various Agreements and project intent. Due to the complexity of the combined bridge project, there are numerous unusual elements including the Logname: 06CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT SERVICES FOR TRV BRIDGES Page 1 of 3 V-pier bridge structures, bridge aesthetics, illumination and landscaping that involve non-standard design. Structural items that will require detailed review include the V-piers, retaining walls, handrails, traffic barriers and the post tensioning sequencing of the three bridge superstructures and substructures. Aesthetic and landscaping features requiring review include the pavers, walls, tree wells, structural soil and various plantings. It is also important that the entire lighting system is properly installed and commissioned. This includes the light fixtures and the LED lighting of the V-piers and associated handrails. Bridge Construction Schedules: Bridge Location Start Finish North Main Street Fall 2014 Summer 2017 Henderson Street Fall 2014 Spring 2018 White Settlement 1 Fall 2014 J Spring 2018 Staff recommends that FNI be retained to provide construction management services during the construction period to ensure that the three bridges, with the unique features identified above, are constructed in accordance with the original Agreements and design intent. FNI has proposed to provide the recommended construction management services on an hourly rate basis and a total fee not to exceed $271,622.00. Staff considers the proposed fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services to be performed.
