Marc Guy, Assistant City Manager
Title
Consider Authorizing The City Manager To Approve A Construction Contract With Klutz Construction, LLC For The Coyote Ridge/Furneaux Creek Drainage Improvements Project In An Amount Not To Exceed $1,444,939.00.
Body
BACKGROUND:
The current stormwater system in the Grandview Ridge neighborhood along Wilson Lane and Fairway Drive is experiencing stagnant water caused by drainage backing up from the Coyote Ridge Golf Course detention pond. The stagnant water in the neighborhood inlets causes a foul odor and is a source of continual maintenance to avoid mosquito breeding in the street inlets. The proposed storm drain system improvements will prevent water from backing up into the system and will improve the overall drainage in the neighborhood.
The City's hike-and-bike Blue Trail along Furneaux Creek has experienced erosion and debris accumulation after heavy rainstorms. This has caused ongoing pedestrian safety and maintenance issues since the trail's completion. Flume and channel improvements on Furneaux Creek will improve the flow of the creek and reduce erosion under the Old Denton Road bridge.
The two projects are unrelated in terms of scope and impact, but were packaged together to create bidding efficiencies and obtain better pricing for both projects.
This contract will provide for the drainage improvements in the Grandview Ridge neighborhood and Furneaux Creek. The Coyote Ridge (aka Grandview Ridge neighborhood) project will consist of removing 930 square yards of street pavement and other miscellaneous items. It will install:
* 620 linear feet of 18-inch and 36-inch reinforced concrete pipe;
* 6-foot x 5-foot stainless steel flap gate on an existing box culvert outfall;
* 5-foot diameter storm drain manhole; and
* The project will repair 930 square yards of 6-inch street paveme...
