The Public Utilities Board recommends approval (6 - 0). INFORMATION/BACKGROUND In the past, utility cuts in the City of Denton streets and roadways were repaired by the Streets Department. Streets no longer has the capacity to perform this work in-house. There are currently 64 open permits waiting on restoration and 37 of the permits are expired. This proposed contract will add a contractor who can focus solely on utility cuts. This will better serve the utility departments by eliminating the permit late fees paid to Public Works Inspections and better serve the community by getting these repairs completed in a timelier manner. An audit was completed in April 2022 by the Internal Audit Department. The findings showed work orders are delayed due to the utility cut restoration. Over 30% took 100 days or greater to close. To ensure work orders close within our 30-day timeframe, a dedicated vendor is needed to complete the utility cut restoration. Company Awarded* DKJ Concrete Construction, Inc.

Based on a historical spend and future projections the recommended NTE of this contract is $5,250,000 for the potential five (5) year contract. 5 year Spend $ 5,000,000.00 Contingency-5% $ 250,000.00 Total $ 5,250,000.00 City Hall 215 E.
