Royal Ln. Extension North Pre-Construction Meeting
On 2/14/89 @ 2:00 p.m., Public Works Inspection conducted a
pre-construction meeting for the Royal Ln. Extension North. Attending
meeting was Bill Anderson of Robert & Dowdey, James Gaspard of Connell
Development, Ted Moss of Cullam, and Dave Snyder of L. H. Lacy. A
summary of major topics that were discussed are as follows.
Hydromulching:
Discussion surrounded the timing of placement of
hydromulching, seeing that both contracts have a portion
of it. It was determined that it would be best
accomplished after final grading was verified by
Engineering and prior to acceptance.
Trench Safety: Jim Gaspard submitted the Trench Safety Plan. Ted
Moss said that they would be using a pull box while
excavating along Thweatt Road.
Barricades & Traffic Control:
Ted Moss was informed that they would be required to provide
v.p., light v.p., and flagmen for Thweatt and at the south
end of project and that they would be maintaining on a minimum
of a weekly basis. Barricades would remain in-place till
trenches are filled and/or project accepted.
Concrete: Notified Dave Snyder that he would have to submit his batch
design prior to pouring. Dave asked if he could use the
existing batch plans for Denton Tap C.I.P. to pour Royal.
I directed him to Ginn Inc. and Russel Doyle and requested
a approval letter from them be submitted to me.
Dave Snyder was also notified that they would be responsible
for maintenance of Thweatt Rd., ie: damaged caused by concrete
trucks during construction.
Ted Moss of Cullam brought up two points that will have to be addressed.
1) Trees along the south right-of-way will be in the way (over hang)
of the construction of the 12" water line. Resident is adamant
that the trees are not to be touched. All parties agreed not to
do anything in those areas until a determination can be made or
decision on how to proceed.
2) The storm drainage outfall through the northern private property
will need to be graded 1' to make channel drain. James Gaspard
of Connell said they were on good relations with property owners
and would get permission to grade.
