Title

Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Contract for Engineering Services with CP&Y, Inc. for the Northeast Downtown Improvements Project.

 

Body

In 2016, the City of Round Rock adopted the Downtown Improvement Plan (DIP) which serves as a planning document for the proposed future downtown roadway and utility infrastructure. Since that time, the City has been undertaking projects based on the DIP to improve the downtown area.

This item is for the professional engineering services required for the Northeast Downtown Improvements Project. This project involves the design of new water and wastewater lines; evaluation and design of a storm water system; design of an underground dry utility ductbank; and the design of right-of-way (ROW) improvements needed in the northeast downtown area. The design of the ROW will be in accordance with the DIP and include roadways, sidewalks, brick pavers and streetlights.

The project area includes two blocks of East Austin Avenue and East Liberty Street between Mays Street and Sheppard Street. The project also includes Lampasas Street and Sheppard Street between East Liberty Street and East Austin Avenue.

The proposed utility and roadway improvements will serve to revitalize the northeast section of downtown Round Rock and support future development. The improvements will also benefit the new library site located in the northeast area with the infrastructure needed to support that site.

 

Cost: $960,600.54
