EXHIBIT 'A'
ITEMIZED SCOPE OF SERVICES
BASIC SERVICES
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This project includes the improvement of Hickory Creek Road from Teasley Lane (F M
2181) west to Riverpass Drive The project is approximately 6,700 feet in length, and is
currently a two-lane asphalt road with roadside ditches throughout nearly its entire
length The proposed roadway section will eventually be a six-lane divided arterial
street from Teasley to Country Club Road The project will consist of design of the inner
two lanes in each direction, along with the median and appropriate turn lanes Our
Conceptual Opinion of Probable Construction Cost for the entire project is $2,331,300
The scope of Basic Services generally consists of the preparation of detailed plans and
specifications for paving and drainage improvements, including an additional bridge
over Fletcher Branch Special Services such as field design surveys, right-of-way
document preparation, right-of-way acquisition, regulatory permitting, and geotechnical
investigations and preparation of a drainage study to identify the floodway of the "Zone
K trib near the east end of the project will also be provided, as described in Exhibit 'B'
GENERAL
A Basis for Scope of Services
The following assumptions were used by the ENGINEER for the preparation of the
scope of Basic Services for this project
1 The CITY will coordinate plan review and approval with TxDOT The
ENGINEER will prepare the plans and exhibits necessary for review by
TxDOT
2 A traffic impact analysis will be (or has been) prepared by others and
provided to the ENGINEER for use in determining the proposed pavement
design section
3 No traffic signalization will be included as a part of the scope of this
project
4 The creek crossing at the east end of the project is in an area designated
by FEMA as Zone A and a LOMR will not be required for this crossing
5 Minimal impacts are expected to Fletcher Branch, as the proposed bridge
will match the existing bridge No LOMR is anticipated for this crossing
6 Section 404 permitting for the creek crossings will be based on one
Nationwide 14 permit For purposes of this proposal, it is assumed that
the impacts to the streams can be limited to less than 200', which will
eliminate the need for a Preconstruction Notification to the Corps of
Engineers Therefore, the 404 permitting effort will consist of notifying the
Exhibit A - Page 1
Corps of Engineers after construction is complete In the event that
stream impacts cannot be limited as indicated, preparation of a PCN will
be performed at hourly rates as Additional Services
7 The project will be designed and constructed in accordance with the City
of Denton Standard Specifications and requirements
8 The project will be designed on the basis of construction of an asphalt
street with concrete curb and gutter A bid alternate will be included in the
plans for a concrete street Separate plan sheets will be provided to
depict this bid alternate.
9 Right-of-way acquisition services will include good faith efforts to negotiate
a purchase price, based on a Market Study of land prices to be prepared
for this project
10 Appraisals will be prepared only as needed for condemnation Services
rendered relative to appraisals and/or condemnation will be performed at
hourly rates as Additional Services
11 The designated fee for Right-of-Way Acquisition is based on acquisition of
12 parcels A change in the number of parcels (either up or down) will
make an adjustment in the fee necessary
12 It Is our understanding that title insurance will be purchased by the CITY
and that closings will be conducted by the title company
13 It is assumed that no Federal funds will be used on the project The
Involvement of Federal,funds has a significant impact on the process and
requirements involved in the nght-of-way acquisition
