AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET
DEPARTMENT: Procurement
ACM: Christine Taylor
DATE: June 16, 2026
SUBJECT
Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation,
authorizing the City Manager to execute Change Order No. 5 to the contract between the City of Denton
and Sundt Construction, Inc., for the construction of the Bonnie Brae Phase 3 Widening and Reconstruction
Project for the Capital Projects Department; providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and providing
an effective date (CSP 8094-1 – Change Order No. 5 in the not-to-exceed amount of $1,048,785.81, for a
total contract award aggregated to $43,755,993.44). The Public Utilities Board recommends approval (5 -
0).
STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
This action supports Key Focus Area: Enhance Infrastructure and Mobility.
INFORMATION/BACKGROUND
Bonnie Brae Phase 3 represents the final phase of the South Bonnie Brae Improvement Project. This phase
widens and reconstructs the existing two (2) lane rural roadway into a four (4) lane divided urban concrete
street from FM 1515/I‑35E to Parvin Road, including a new roadway alignment from Parvin Road to
Roselawn Drive that ties into the newly constructed South Bonnie Brae Bridge (Phase 1). Improvements
include new underground storm drainage, water and sanitary sewer lines, street lighting, and traffic signals
at Roselawn Drive, FM 1515, and IH-35E Frontage Road. The project also provides a five (5) foot sidewalk
and a 10-foot multi-use trail on either side of the new roadway.
As part of the utility work, the project upgrades the existing eight (8) inch water line to a 12-inch line
between 35E and Willowood on the north end and between Solar Way and Parvin on the south, excluding
the section that crosses under the railroad tracks. Due to the age of the eight (8) inch line under the tracks
(44 years) and the continuity of the upgraded system is necessary, Water Utilities determined that this
remaining segment should also be replaced with a 12-inch line.
Coordination with Pacific Canadian Kansas City Southern (PCKCS, formerly KCS) determined that the
new 12-inch water line must be installed in a separate bore and cannot utilize the existing bore location.
PCKCS also requires additional survey work and settlement monitoring of the track area within the bore
section through this portion of the work. Change Order No. 5 will include the cost associated with this work,
including PCKCS requirements, in the amount of $1,117,169.86. This change order also includes other
costs related to quantity adjustments to roadway, drainage, and driveway items, resulting in a decrease of
$68,384.05, for a total net change of $1,048,785.81. This change order does not require any additional days.
