SUBJECT
Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation,
authorizing the City Manager to execute a public works contract with Wilson Contractor Services, LLC, for
the construction of the Allred and John Paine Road Water Transmission Main Project for the City of Denton;
providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and providing an effective date (IFB 7038 - awarded to
Wilson Contractor Services, LLC in the not-to-exceed amount of $4,876,225.38).
IFB INFORMATION /BACKGROUND
The Allred to John Paine Road Transmission Line project will extend approximately 14,000 linear feet of
24-inch to 30-inch water line from the Southwest Pump Station (on John Paine Road) North along Old John
Paine and then East along Allred to the 24-inch water line on Bonnie Brae (Exhibit 2); and will include the
installation of a flow control valve at the Southwest Pump Station site. Also included with this project is an
additional redundant feed to be located near Bonnie Brae and US Hwy 377, which will allow for system
operational flexibility if one of the Southwest Pump Station transmission lines is taken out of service. This
project was slated for construction in the Capital Improvement Plan, in Fiscal Year 2018; and is important
for reliable and adequate water service to the southwest portion of the City by providing redundancy and
flexibility to the Southwest Pump Station in response to projected growth in the area.
Invitation for Bids was sent to 283 prospective suppliers of this item. In addition, specifications were placed
on the Materials Management website for prospective suppliers to download and advertised in the local
newspaper. Nine (9) bids were received with a low bid of $4,876,225.38 and a high bid of $7,221,364
(Exhibit 3). The engineer’s opinion of probable construction cost (OPCC) was $6,000,000. The low bid
was approximately fifteen percent (15%) lower than the engineer’s OPCC. The low bidder for this project,
Wilson Contractor Services, LLC, appears to meet all necessary requirements for qualification on this
project.
