SUBJECT
Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation,
authorizing the approval of a first amendment to a Professional Services Agreement between the City of
Denton and Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc., amending the contract approved by the City Council on May
17, 2022, in the not-to-exceed amount of $751,100.00; said first amendment for an extended scope, an
additional full plan set, and services for a new lift station for the I-35 Split to Milam Phase II project for the
Capital Projects and Water Utilities Departments; providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and
providing an effective date (RFQ 7574-010 – providing for an additional first amendment expenditure
amount not-to-exceed $224,300.00, with the total contract amount not-to-exceed $975,400.00). The Public
Utilities Board recommends approval (4 - 0).
STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
This action supports Key Focus Area: Enhance Infrastructure and Mobility.
INFORMATION/BACKGROUND
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is widening the Interstate 35 (I-35) corridor in numerous
areas throughout the City of Denton. The widening of I-35 presents conflicts with existing water and
wastewater infrastructures entailing their relocations. Through a holistic approach, the Water Utilities
Division took the opportunity to evaluate the current and future demands in the region as a direct impact on
the widening of I-35. Kimley Horn and Associates was hired to assist with the design of the relocations as
well as to identify the future demands as a result of expected growth.
The original contract with Kimley-Horn was awarded by the City Council on May 17, 2022, to assist with
the engineering services for the design and construction phase services for the I-35 Split to Milam Phase II.
However, during the design process, the design and proposed easement for the original corridor were no
longer feasible, thus there was a need for additional survey and design phase services for the gravity and
force main sewers.
This First Amendment includes additional preliminary/final plan and profile drawings preparation for the
addition of approximately 500 linear feet of water main, 330 linear feet of 12-inch sanitary sewer force
main, and 400 feet of 18-inch through 33-inch gravity sanitary sewer line. The revised designs will require
additional easements, an Environmentally Sensitive Area (ESA) study and mitigation plan, and a lift station.
