Body
BACKGROUND
On November 11, 2020, City Council authorized a construction services contract with Stoic Civil Construction, Inc. for erosion control and storm drainage improvements at eight locations by Resolution No. 20-1815. The project includes the installation of gabion walls, retaining walls, gabion mattresses, slope and channel improvements to protect structures and to minimize creek bank erosion at eight locations throughout the city.
This action will authorize Change Order No. 1 to the construction services contract with Stoic Civil Construction for emergency services at the pedestrian bridge over White Rock Creek in RP Brooks Park. The bridge was installed as part of the White Rock Creek trail in 1985 and is located on the downstream end of a curve in White Rock Creek. Over the years, the bank upstream from the bridge has eroded and after the spring rains in May of this year Park Department staff observed that the bridge piers on the southern side are now exposed and a small portion of the trail was washed away. Park Department staff have placed a steel traffic plate over the trail to strengthen it temporarily.
With Stoic’s vast familiarity of gabion wall construction and current active construction contract with Dallas Water Utilities, the Park & Recreation Department has requested Stoic to install erosion control gabions in front of the bridge abutments. As part of this work, the area behind the gabions will be backfilled and capped with concrete and the trail will be reconstructed. This change order will also increase the contract time by 60 working days.
