Analysis

The engineering and surveying services contract with KSA Engineers, Inc. for Waterwood Drive Extension from Arkansas Lane to north of Warrior Trail, for drainage, water and wastewater improvements in the total amount of $263,500 was approved by City Council on September 9, 2015 (15-4926).

 

This project provides for engineering and surveying services for the construction of approximately 3,000 linear feet of 24’ wide concrete pavement for Waterwood Drive Extension adjacent to the future Epic site from Arkansas Lane to north of Warrior Trail. This project is being coordinated with the design for the Epic and includes nine (9) parking lot and/or driveway connections and 8’-12’ sidewalks. This project also provides for the design of approximately 8,000 SY of concrete pavement, 2,400 L.F of various sized storm drain pipes with curb inlets, 6,200 L.F of 24”, 16”, 12” and 8” waterlines, 1,600 LF 12” wastewater line, Street lighting, electrical conduits, Entry signage, landscaping and irrigation.

 

Change Order/Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $95,500 approved by Council February 6, 2016 (16-5337) provided for additional professional surveying and engineering design services for the extension of the sanitary sewer outfall line from the EPIC project.  The original scope included the anticipated design of 1,600 LF of 12" sanitary sewer line and excluded evaluations of capacities of the existing City sewer systems.  During the design phase, it became apparent the existing sanitary sewer line instructed to connect to was undersized, therefore, the proposed outfall sewer line to support the EPIC project, would have to be resized, extended and relocated to connect to an adequate capacity City sewer line. KSA Engineers, Inc. also be provided the City with the civil design elements of the Play/Grand project parking lots off of Waterwood Drive and utility support for an adjacent public restroom.

 

The current proposed Change Order/Amendment No. 2 in the total amount of $15,000 reallocates $5,000 from the bidding phase into the construction phase to allow for additional design time correcting a low spot on Espanade that was brought to light during the sewer coordination meetings. The additional services requested will be for the redesign of the lighting and signage along Waterwood Drive to include light poles alternating on either side of the streets, reorient the landscaping accordingly and provisions for the video board sign east of the intersection of Waterwood Drive and Arkansas Lane.

 

After approval of the current Change Order/Amendment No. 2 the contract amount will be $374,000 with an expiration date of December 31, 2017.

 

This item was taken to the Finance and Government Committee on May 2, 2016 for their review and approval.
