SUBJECT
Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation,
authorizing the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement with Westwood Professional
Services, Inc. dba Peloton Land Solutions, Inc., for design services for Neighborhood 5B & Oakland
Drainage for the Capital Projects Department; providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and
providing an effective date (RFQ 8377-003 – Professional Services Agreement for design services awarded
to Westwood Professional Services, Inc. dba Peloton Land Solutions, Inc., in the not-to-exceed amount of
$4,512,215.00). The Public Utilities Board recommends approval (6 - 0).
STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
This action supports Key Focus Area: Enhance Infrastructure and Mobility.
INFORMATION/BACKGROUND
Neighborhood 5B portion of the project contains 17 street segments associated with the 2019 Street
Reconstruction Bond Program. The project scope includes approximately 8,300 linear feet of street
reconstruction, 4,850 linear feet of water distribution main replacement, 2,700 linear feet of wastewater
collection main replacement, various sidewalk improvements, and a photometric study. The project's
Oakland Drainage portion includes installing a 48-inch drainage pipe and a new 9’ x 7’ drainage box along
Oakland Street and Austin Street. The project also includes installing a detention pond with culvert
improvements. The Capital Projects Department is focusing on a holistic approach aimed at limiting future
construction disruptions by replacing other aging public infrastructure within the limits of the project area
and enhancing coordination during the delivery of the 2019 & 2023 Bond Program. Neighborhood 5B &
Oakland Drainage is being delivered as the fifth Construction Manager at Risk (CM@R) project for
horizontal construction in the City of Denton (City). This delivery method leans heavily on collaboration
among the City, the design engineer, and the CM@R during the design process to allow for the best schedule
coordination, cost modeling, and community engagement.
Statements of qualifications were sent to the City’s prequalified list of engineers requesting experience
designing projects using alternative delivery methods, specifically CM@R, availability, and workload.
Upon ranking the received information, staff found Peloton Land Solutions, Inc. to have the most relevant
CM@R experience, has current CM@R work in progress in Texas, including the City of Denton, and
available staff to complete the project within the schedule. Based on Westwood Professional Services, Inc.’s
knowledge, project team experience, and availability, the staff has selected Peloton Land Solutions, Inc. as
the best choice for Neighborhood 5B & Oakland Drainage design.
