Starleaf Design Ph1 Council Presentation- ExternalStarleaf Pump Station- Phase 1 Design Agenda Item XXXXX July 28, 2015 Verbiage from Council Packet HERE 1 Our goal is to design and construct a fully redundant supply of treated water with additional storage and pumping capacity. This allows the City water supply to operate in the event of a pipeline failure and to take the existing pump station off line for maintenance. Three groups sued the city four and a half years ago contending the city violated the ADA by not doing enough to make sidewalks more accessible. With three cases unresolved, city officials had said they were unable to move forward on a long-term sidewalk repair plan, even as money for repairs has become available. “This $1.4 billion settlement is the largest disability access class action settlement in U.S. history” . The settlement, in which the city agreed to spend $31 million a year for 30 years, will install curb ramps throughout the city, fix sidewalks that are broken and torn up by tree roots, install accessible sidewalks and remove many other barriers. 2 Put Scott’s exhibits here WA-99-02 3 Put Scott’s exhibits here WA-99-02 4 History & Need In 1999 (or previous) the City outlined the need for additional water pump capacity and redundancy. The site is owned by the City…….. And is located along the pipeline The original budget was anticipated to be $10M The City is currently served by the Village Parkway Pump Station from a 54” Dallas Water Utility pipeline from the Elm Fork Water Treatment Plant. The City’s historical peak demand is approximately 25 MGD. xxxxxx 5 Basic Design Criteria Continue the current architectural theme in the area for the building façade and the perimeter fencing Facility sized to accommodate the 25 MGD demand and 6 MG of ground storage Include a Water Quality Monitoring & Control Facility Include TECQ requirements, submittals and approvals Maintain environmentally sustainable design & energy efficient usage 6 Design Firm Selection Process On April XXX, 2015 a Request for Proposals was advertised for the design of the Starleaf Pump Station A Selection Committee was formed with City personnel from Fire, Planning and Public Works Four engineering firms submitted proposals Three qualified firms were interviewed Based on interview questions and criteria from the Selection Committee, Brown & Gay Engineers was selected as the design firm 7 About Brown & Gay Engineers, Inc. BGE is a Texas-based firm founded in 1975 with 420 employees throughout the state. They have extensive experience in tank and pump station design, construction and operation including architectural, structural, electrical & SCADA systems. In addition, several members of the design team are Coppell residents and have a vested interest in the success of the project. 8 Phased Design Due to the long-term goals of the project, the Engineering Design & Construction of Starleaf will be broken into four phases. Phase 1- Site Planning (CURRENT PHASE) Phase 2- Facility Design Phase 3- Construction Phase 4- Commissioning 9 Phase 1 The presentation today covers Phase 1 of the process which includes: Site Study including Geotechnical and Topographical Information Hydraulic Models & Feasibility to Assist with Tank Sizing Recommendations on Pump Selection SCADA System and Telemetry recommendations Preliminary Site Layout with Preliminary Construction Cost Estimate Review and facilitation of Wholesale Water Contracts with DWU and Irving Phase 1 ($235,000) represents about 20% of the anticipated design budget 10 11 Summary & $ amount State this is Request for Approval Upcoming requests will be Phase 2, 3, 4, etc. Conclusion 12
