Title
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Contract with Austin Engineering Company, Inc. for the Lisa Rae Drive Improvements Project.
Body
In 1984, Lisa Rae Drive, Joyce Lane, and Ray Berglund were involuntary annexed into the City of Round Rock. In the early 2000’s, bonds were passed to perform improvements on these three streets, but during construction funding ran short and only Joyce Lane and Ray Berglund were constructed. Per the annexation agreement, Lisa Rae Drive remained a private drive.
In October 2012, residents along Lisa Rae Drive approached the City concerning maintenance to Lisa Rae Drive. Residents asked the City if a maintenance agreement could be entered into in order to construct a new street similar to Ray Berglund and Joyce Lane. The City determined that the construction of a new street could only be possible if all property owners donated the required Right-of-Way (ROW) needed to construct Lisa Rae Drive. After several discussions with the six residents along Lisa Rae Drive, they have all agreed to donate the required 25-feet of property for the necessary ROW. On May 11, 2018, the City executed the documents needed to acquire the donated ROW necessary to construct Lisa Rae Drive.
The Lisa Rae Street Improvements project will consist of approximately 700 linear feet of new 20-foot wide asphalt pavement with ribbon curb; approximately 500 linear feet of new 8-inch water line; and approximately 1,000 linear feet of new 8-inch wastewater line.
In June 2016, Halff and Associates performed the preliminary engineering design for the proposed street, water, and wastewater infrastructure. In May 2018, Halff and Associates were selected for final design and construction phase services needed to construct the improvements to Lisa Rae Drive. On October 31, 2018, ten bids were submitted and the lowest bid in the amount of $386,539 was submitted by Austin Engineering Company, Inc.
Cost: $386,539.00
