| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND The Engineering Department recommends approval of an expenditure in the amount of $127,606 for providing construction materials testing professional services from Terracon Consultants, Inc. for the Westgate Subdivision Paving and Water Line Improvements, Project No. 7045. This contract includes testing services for new water line placement and pavement reconstruction along the following residential streets:
Cambridge Dr. (from Alma Dr. to Dickens Dr.)
Warwick Dr. (from Alma Dr. to Dickens Dr.)
Arbor Downs Dr. (from Alma Dr. to Dickens Dr.)
Eagle Pass (Cambridge Dr. to Arbor Downs Dr.)
Dickens Dr. (from Cambridge Dr. to Kipling Dr.)
Brittany Dr. (from Cambridge Dr. to the alley)
The total expenditure is $127,606. Terracon Consultants, Inc. was deemed most qualified based on their Statement of Qualifications submission for RFQ No. 2019-0397-X.
Materials testing ensures quality construction will be performed and limit future maintenance and replacement of the project’s infrastructure.
Not approving the expenditure would result in City of Plano’s specified requirements not being met, and potentially reducing the new construction’s service life and increasing future maintenance costs.
