Re FW Old Town Coppell (2)Dan, Robert does not appear to understand what we are doing with this parking lot irrigation. The drawings that James is working on will serve as the formal request. I'm still frustrated with what appears to me to be a fundamental lack of understanding on the scope of the project. These additional valves have been Coppell's to maintain since City Council directed us to build the parking lot. The change to the plans is not changing the maintenance responsibility, it's simply tying these valves into one of the controllers included in the original drawings. I agree with the contractor in that we need to meet to clarify what we're doing. That meeting should take place here in our office, and needs to include Engineering and Parks staff, as well as JRJ, their irrigation sub-contractor, and the appropriate members of FNI's design team. I would like to see us have that meeting after the parking lot drawings are available to give to the contractor. Keith Keith Marvin, P.E.

Controller 1 has 8 Stations + Master Valve/Flow Meter Controller 2 has 14 Stations on the plans + Master Valve/Flow Meter and an addition of 12 valves that were once not Coppell's to maintain. That has changed and the 12 valves will be added to Controller 2. That will make Controller 2 having a total of 27 valves. There will need to be 2 pairs of wires ran from the controllers to the Master Valves. One pair will be for the Solenoids and the other pair for the Flow Meters. Typically it is just 14 gauge wire but usually colors that are not Red and White. Here are the part numbers: IS-R1A-RU-SS 12 Station Irrinet M Pedestal (Controller 1) IS-R3A-RU-SS 36 Station Irrinet M Pedestal (Controller 2) 2- IS-BM-20-AC-10 2 AC ARAD Hydrometer (Combined Master Valve and Flow Meter) The Controllers and Flow Meters are available at Longhorn via Matt Swor @ 214-882-8731.
