M&C No. G-8101:•II BACKGROUND•
(Continued) -
Since 1987 intensive negotiations between the City of Fort Worth
and the wholesale customers, as represented by a committee
appointed by the Tarrant County Mayors' Council, have been
conducted. Ron Haynes, Director of Public Works, City of Hurst,
chaired the negotiating committee. The Tarrant County Mayors'
Council voted to recommend approval of the contract in March, 1989.
The contracts have been presented to the wholesale customers and
executed by their governing bodies. It remains for the Fort Worth
City Council to approve them and authorize the City Manager to
execute them.
Major provisions of the new contract not addressed in existing
contracts include:
1. Establishing procedures for billing disputes, including
arbitration and payment of interest.
2. Establishing a schedule for notifying customers of
proposed rate revisions.
3. Revising the methodology for computing waterrates for
wholesale customers to a historical basis with annual
review.
4. Providing for a one -time -only mid -year adjustment.
5. Requiring customers to have State of Texas Health
Department approved sanitary sewer facilities.
60- Creating the Water System Advisory Committee and defining
their role. -
7. Providing for possible future water system access fees and
creating and involving an Advisory Committee in the
process.
8. Providing for termination for breach of contract.
9. Prohibiting assigning of contract by Customer.
Several 'of the wholesale customers have required unique
modifications to their respective contracts. These modifications,
or special exceptions, were required to recognize certain legal
differences required between Fort Worth and its customers.
A summary of the various exceptions to the uniform contract is
detailed below:
1. The uniform contract is unchanged with these cities:
Burleson Lake Worth
Crowley North Richland Hills
Edgecliff Village Richland Hills
Everman Saginaw
Forest Hill Sansom Park
Haltom City Westworth Village
Hurst White Settlement

2. The contract with Dallas/Fort Worth Regional Airport and
Tarrant M.U.D. No. 1 must recognize that the customer
cannot pass ordinances or grant easements, but
nevertheless insure that the customer can abide by all
terms of the contract within its service area.
3. Certain sections of the previous contract with
Dallas/Fort Worth Regional Airport and Westover Hills
.must remain in force and be incorporated into the
- proposed contract.
4. -River Oaks will be contracting for emergency water
service only.
5. The contract with Grand Prairie replaces an existing
contract with the Trinity River Authority to provide
service to Grand Prairie.
6. The Trinity River Authority is meeting with Southlake,
- Keller and Lake Turner Municipal Utility District to
create a regional water service area. If the project
succeeds, TRA will contract with Fort Worth for water;
therefore, no new contract is being presented for Keller
and Southlake at this time.

Unspecified and Sixth Avenue
2. execute a design contract with Carter & Burgess, Inc., in the
amount of $36,000 for design of the reconstruction of Butler
Street from McCart to Livingston, and Sixth Avenue from
Seminary to Drew.
DISCUSSION:
Proposition No. 1 of the Capital Improvement Program approved by
the voters on March 22, 1986, included funds in each Council
District for "undesignated" street construction projects. Butler
Street from McCart to Hemphill and Sixth Avenue from Seminary to
Biddison are in need of full construction. The existing hot mix
asphaltic pavements on these two streets currently require a high
level of maintenance, and existing drainage facilities are
inadequate. A staged construction program is recommended whereby
Butler Street from McCart to Livingston and Sixth Avenue from
Seminary to Drew will be designed and constructed from available
Undesignated Funds for Council District 9 and the remaining section
of each street will be considered as candidate projects in the
City's next bond program.
SCOPE OF PROJECT:
The scope of this project involves the realignment and construction
of Butler Street from McCart to Livingston and Sixth Avenue from
Seminary to Drew. Included will be approximately 4,000 linear ft.
of reinforced concrete roadway, thirty feet wide, with attached
concrete curbs. Required storm drain improvements will also be
included in this project.
The local consulting firm of Carter & Burgess, Inc., is recommended
for this project and has agreed to perform the required engineering
design services for improvements to Butler Street and Sixth Avenue
for a fee based on established hourly rates. The rates and total
fees have been reviewed by staff, and they compare favorably to
those listed in the Manual for Professional Practice for General
Engineering Services published by the Texas Society of Professional
Engineers, 1982 Edition. Any authorized subcontract work will be
charged at the actual cost of the work plus a ten percent (10%)
service charge. The City of Fort Worth will furnish survey data and
soils testing and will prepare necessary right-of-way maps and
field notes for right-of-way and easement requirements.
Carter and Burgess, Inc., has complied with the City's Minority
Business Enterprise policy for this proposed contract.
The consultant has agreed that the total charges, including any
subcontractors, for the design work and related services will not
.exceed $36,000 (6.88% of the estimated total cost of construction).
The estimated total cost of paving and drainage improvements is
$523,500.
Carter & Burgess, Inc., has agreed to complete the required
services in the following phases:

Manager, as follows:
SUBJECT: ALLIANCE AIRPORT, PHASE II - CHANGE ORDERS 9, 10, AND 11
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager
to execute the following change orders to the contract with T.L.
James and Co. for Phase II improvements at Fort Worth Alliance
Airport:.
Change Order No. 9 1. Change Order No. 9 providing for extra work associated with
adjusting Taxiway "B" from 560 ft. west of the main runway to
600 ft. west of the main runway, in the amount of $77,868.03;
Change Order No. 10 2. Change Order No. 10 providing for topsoil and seeding at the
south end of the main runway, grooving of Taxiway "B", and
grooving a 300 ft. extension of the main runway in the amount
of $85,621.00; ,
Change Order 11 II 3. Change Order No. 11 providing for the placement of
approximately 320,000 cubic yards of embankment, 20,000 cubic

M&C No. C-11726 the safety area north of the main runway in the amount of
(Continued) $1,095,121.25, subject to receiving a grant amendment
providing for additional construction funds.
BACKGROUND:
On October 25, 1988 (M&C C-11265), the City Council awarded a
construction contract to T.L. James & Company, Inc., for Phase II
paving, lighting, and drainage improvements at Alliance Airport in
the amount of $19,820,408.70. This contract has subsequently been
amended by Change Orders 1 through 8 so that the contract amount
currently stands at $19,741,675.79.
PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER NO. 9:
The contract as originally awarded provided for Taxiway "B" to be
located 560 ft. west of the main runway. It was subsequently
determined that movement of the taxiway 40 ft. to the west would
make it possible to use the taxiway as an emergency runway if
necessary environmental clearances could be obtained. The work
involves additional haulage for fill dirt and additional subgrade,
pavement, and shoulders for the cross taxiways. These costs were
partially offset by reductions in quantities for topsoil, seeding,
and mulching so that the net amount for this proposed change order
is $77,868.03.
PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER NO. 10:
The contract as awarded presumed that topsoiling and seeding would
be completed in the Phase I construction contract. However, the
location of haul roads indicated that topsoil and seed placed at
the south. end would be destroyed by Phase II activity. Therefore,
that work was deleted from the Phase I contract and is proposed to
be added to the Phase II contract for installation after hauling
operations are complete. It is also necessary to groove Taxiway
"B", not provided for in the contract as awarded, in the event that
its use as an emergency runway will be approved by FAA. It is also
necessary to groove a 300 ft. extension to the main runway which
has already been approved by F.A.A. The price of the topsoil and
seed was established at $13,231.00 and the price for grooving at
$72,390.00, for a total cost for this proposed change order of
$85,621.00.
PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER NO. 11:
The contract as awarded provided for an 8200 foot runway with a
fairly abrupt drop off on the north end. The paving has been
extended 300 ft. using overrun quantities after approval from
F.A.A. There is every reason to expect that a proposed extension of
an additional 1100 ft. will be approved by FAA following a
favorable ruling on environmental clearances which are nearly
complete. Such an extension will require massive amounts of fill
material, select material, and topsoil. In addition, a storm drain
must be installed prior to embankment operations. The embankment
will function as a safety area for the main runway even if the
ruling on the environmental issues should be unfavorable which
seems very unlikely at this point. The negotiated prices for the
various work items are as follows:

dedicated amounts have exceeded what has actuarially been
determined to be required to maintain the pension fund on a sound
financial basis.
For the past several years, the Retirement Fund Board of Trustees
