ATTACHMENT "A"
GLENANN DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS
SCOPE OF WORK
1, Perform field surveys on Sherri Lane and Glenann Drive including the alignment of a proposed off-site storm drain
between houses from Sherri Lane to the Walker Branch channel (See enclosed sketch showing the proposed
preliminary drainage improvements labeled "Alternate 1 "),
2 Perform a detailed drainage analysis of that portion of the Glenann Addition area which is affected by runoff
associated with the existing flooding problem at Glenann Drive and Sherr; Lane, and determine the size of all on-
site and off-site storm drainage facilities, which are required to mitigate the flooding in accordance with current City
of North Richland Hills Storm Drainage Design Criteria, or as otherwise directed by the OWNER
3 Perform a geotechnical investigation of the site to determine the condition of the subsurface soils between the
houses along the alignment of the proposed off-site storm drain, and determine any special sheeting or shoring
work necessary, or construction of "soldier piers" or any other improvements required to protect the foundations of
the existing homes from settlement or damage resulting from the storm drain construction
4, Prepare plans and specifications for construction of the proposed drainage improvements along with any
pavement replacement required in Glenann Drive, Sherry Lane and Randy Drive, including underground storm
drains and inlets, driveways, sidewalks, side street pavement transitions, valley gutters, fence replacements,
sheeting and shoring work, soldier piers, and any necessary utility adjustments,
5 Perform property surveys, courthouse research, and prepare ROWand/or Easement documents for the off-site
storm drain facilities noted above,
6, Prepare "Opinion of Probable Construction Costs" (ENGINEER's Estimates) for all paving, drainage, and utility
adjustment construction work, based on current estimated unit prices which are representative of similar types of
construction in the North Richland Hills area, In the event that the ENGINEER's Estimate of construction costs
exceed the established budgets for this project, then the ENGINEER shall prepare an Alternate Bid Proposal to be
included in the Construction Contract Documents which is based on a "Value Engineered" reduced scope of
construction as required for construction costs to stay within the available funds for the project, or as directed by
the OWNER
7 Perform construction project administration functions for this project, as outlined in Section" of the AGREEMENT,
which shall include conducting a pre-construction conference with the Contractor; furnishing horizontal and vertical
control data to the Contractor, (who will be responsible for laying out the project and preparing his own "cut
sheets"); for preparing monthly letters of recommendation of Contractor requests for partial payments; for
answering questions regarding interpretation of the plans and contract documents which might arise during
construction; for reviewing shop drawings and lab reports as required; and for making periodic visits to the project
site throughout the construction period,
8, Prepare as-built plans after construction of the project is complete and furnish three sets of as-built bluelines to the
OWNER along with one set of labeled aperture cards of as-built plan sheets, and a CD-ROM containing a
reproducible copy of all reports, original drawings, estimates, field notes, and data,
