Body
BACKGROUND:

The project consists of the installation of approximately 12,670 linear feet of residential street pavement, 2,640 linear feet of alley pavement, and 11,620 linear feet of sidewalks. This project was part of the 2018 bond election.
The duration of construction is 365 calendar days. Construction will be performed such that all of the streets and alleys will not be under construction at the same time. Project signs will be placed at the entrances to the neighborhood during construction. All residents will be notified in writing regarding the project schedule prior to the start of construction. Additional handouts will be distributed as needed during the project.

Nine (9) bids were received on April 26, 2023. The low bid, in the amount of $3,831,573.37, was submitted by 3D Paving and Contracting, LLC. The engineer’s estimate for the project was $5,056,316.16. 3D Paving and Contracting has performed numerous projects in Carrollton, most recently the Crosby Estates Section 2 and Northcrest Estates Sections 1 and 2 projects.
Funding is available in the Streets Consolidated, Drainage Consolidated and Utility Consolidated accounts. This project is also partly funded by Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding.
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:
- Sustaining quality of life - Improvements in the subdivision should improve the appearance of the neighborhood and encourage residents to provide better upkeep of their properties.
- Sustaining day-to-day operations - The replacement of substandard infrastructure should reduce the need for non-scheduled or emergency repairs.
