Title
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute Supplemental Contract No. 1 with K. Friese & Associates, Inc. for the Kenney Fort Boulevard Extension Project.
Body
Kenney Fort Boulevard is a major arterial roadway shown on the Transportation Master Plan to eventually connect from the City of Georgetown across the City of Round Rock and continue to the City of Pflugerville. The first segment of Kenney Fort Boulevard between Joe DiMaggio Boulevard and Forest Creek Drive was completed during the summer of 2013. Future planning for the southern and northern sections of Kenney Fort Boulevard are ongoing. City Staff has been mindful of the future right-of-way needs for this roadway as development progresses and the City plans for future growth.
The original contract with K Friese & Associates prepared a preliminary roadway schematic and identified the additional required right-of-way corridor location and configuration of Kenney Fort Boulevard from US79 to Old Settlers Boulevard. This Supplemental Contract No. 1 with K Friese & Associates provides Plans, Specifications, and Estimates (PS&E), and Construction Phase Services for a 24-inch water transmission main to be constructed along Kenney Fort Boulevard from Old Settlers Boulevard to Chandler Creek Blvd.
The 24-inch waterline will be designed, easements acquired, and constructed in connection with the Transportation Department's roadway project. This Supplemental Agreement No. 1 for $79,745 will increase the original contract amount of $450,961 to $530,706.
Cost: $79,745.00
Source of Funds: Self-Financed Water Construction
