Body
BACKGROUND
The City of Dallas and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) executed a contract on September 5, 2024, to effectuate their agreement for engineering to reconstruct the intersection at Harry Hines Boulevard and Mockingbird Lane in the city of Dallas (“Project”).
In October 2024, additional funding was authorized for construction of the Project, deeming it necessary to amend the agreement to add the construction phase and funding.
If approved, this action will authorize Amendment No. 1 to the agreement reflecting the following changes:
Article 1, Responsible Parties, is deleted in its entirety and replaced with a table stating that the City of Dallas is responsible for administering the environmental assessment and mitigation, architectural and engineering services, and construction of the Project.
Article 3, Scope of Work, is deleted in its entirety and replaced with: “The scope of work for the Project consists of engineering and construction to reconstruct the intersection at Harry Hines Boulevard at Mockingbird Lane in the City of Dallas.”
Attachment B, Project Budget, is deleted in its entirety and replaced with Attachment B-1, which is attached to and made a part of this Amendment. The total estimated cost of the Project increased by $26,331,148.00 from $3,135,240.00 to $29,466,388.00 due to adding funding authorized for the construction phase.
Attachment C, Resolution, Ordinance, or Commissioners Court Order, is supplemented by adding Attachment C-1, Resolution, Ordinance, or Commissioners Court Order. This resolution authorizes the construction phase and funding.
All other provisions of the original contract are unchanged and remain in full force and effect.
