Analysis
Despite beginning discussions with AT&T nearly twelve (12) months ago regarding the relocation of AT&T infrastructure along Esplanade Drive, the EpicCentral destination project has now reached a critical milestone due to the lack of action on the part of AT&T.
The City finally received the long-awaited Application and Letter of Agreement for Construction Services from AT&T on Friday, June 5, 2020. Because AT&T requires their equipment and communication cabling be serviced only by AT&T, a bid process was not able to be undertaken and costs associated with the agreement between AT&T and the City of Grand Prairie will be applied to the relocation work to be performed.
Financial Consideration
Funding for an Application and Letter of Agreement for construction services, in the amount of $61,400, is available in the EPIC Central Capital Projects Fund (360093) WO #EPICCLST (EPIC Central-Streets)
