Title
Consider Authorizing The City Manager To Approve Payment To The City Of Lewisville, Texas For Reimbursement Of Expenditures Related To Supplemental Pavement On Carrollton Parkway In An Amount Not To Exceed $354,138.77 Pursuant To An Existing Interlocal Agreement.
Body
Background:
In 2013, the City of Lewisville acquired funding for the construction of Corporate Drive/Carrollton Parkway from I-35E in Lewisville to FM 2281 (Old Denton Road) in Carrollton. An Interlocal Agreement between the City of Lewisville and the City of Carrollton was entered into on October 22, 2013 for the construction of the uncompleted portions of Carrollton Parkway between the east Carrollton City Limits, east of Holfords Prairie Road and Old Denton Road. The portion of this project between SH 121 and Old Denton Road is now nearing completion; however, in order to complete the eastbound portion of this section of roadway, a connection to existing paving is required. The existing paving in this area is deteriorated to the point that a connection to existing pavement is not possible. This request for additional pavement is to replace existing pavement to the point that a sufficient pavement connection can be made. The work will be done over the summer while the adjacent elementary school is not in session.
Financial Implications:
The cost of the additional pavement on Carrollton Parkway is $322,138.77. As with all construction projects, staff recommends including a contingency for any unforeseen issues that may be uncovered during construction. For this project, staff is recommending a 10% construction contingency, or $32,000.00. Funds for the improvements are available from the Streets Consolidated fund.
Impact on Community Sustainability:
This project will support the City Council’s strategic objectives and vision of building a community that families and businesses want to call home by:
• Improving safety and reducing congestion along a regional arterial street through the addition of through lanes (Hospitality, Accessible)
• Enhancing accessibility and mobility for residents, commuters, emergency responders, and commercial traffic through improved connection to the regional arterial street system. (Optimize, Accessible)
• Supporting economic vitality by increasing capacity to accommodate current and future development in the surrounding corridor. (Economical, Revitalize)
• Strengthening long term infrastructure stewardship by replacing failing pavement and reducing future maintenance needs (Optimize).
Staff Recommendation/Action Desired:
Staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to approve payment for reimbursement of expenditures for supplemental pavement on Carrollton Parkway in accordance with the Interlocal Agreement with the City of Lewisville, Texas for the Carrollton Parkway project.
