PROGRAM
Staff discussed the current and future workload of
the City's consulting engineering firm, Knowlton-
English-Flowers, Inc. Staff stated in order to meet
the CIP project schedules as approved by Council
two of the 1996 projects may need to be designed
by other engineering consultants. These projects
are Crane Road and Calloway Branch (A).
The CIP Committee determined this was an issue
that should be handled by staff.
Staff presented a summary of the 1996 General
Obligation Bond Sale and proposed to include the
construction of Rumfield Road from Davis Blvd. to
Precinct Line Road in this bond sale in lieu of
Hightower Drive (C) and (D).
After discussion the CIP Committee recommended
Rumfield Road be included, but consider
constructing only the eastern portion from Eden
Road to Precinct Line Road. The Committee also
recommended staff pursue County participation in
the construction process and any available ISTEA
grant funds jointly with the County Commissioner.
Staff should present this to Council for formal
action.
Staff explained to the Committee that the flood
mitigation projects have been preliminarily
reviewed by the consulting engineers, as previously
authorized by Council. Also, the County will build
the road, but will require Keller and NRH to design
and build the drainage improvements on North
Tarrant Parkway (Wilson Road).
A total of $1,213,400 is needed for the 1996
Drainage Improvements Program. Funding could
be provided by the Drainage Utility Fund. The
revenue generated by the Drainage Utility Fee can
provide for the additional debt service on a bond
sale of $1,150,000. The additional $65,000
needed to totally fund the projects could be taken
from DUF cash flow.
Mayor Brown made the motion that the projects be
done as presented by staff. Councilman Wood
seconded the motion. The CIP Committee
requested staff present this to Council for formal
action.
