Consideration of entering into a contract with Sverdrup Civil, Inc. in the mount
of $39,774.07 for the design of various items associated with Sandy Lake Road
from MacArthur Blvd. to east City Limits (Project # ST 93-01) that are the City's
responsibility and authorizing the Mayor to sign.
Date: January 10, 1994
During the course of the design of Sandy Lake Road by Dallas County, several issues have come
to light that are the City's responsibility and are not currently included in the design of Sandy
l_ake Road by Dallas County. The items include: the street lighting design, sanitary sewer
design, signalization design at MacArthur and Sandy Lake Road and a preliminary look at
shifting Sandy Lake Road south at MacArthur Blvd. In an attempt to establish continuity
between the County's consultant and potential services that the City needs for this project, the
City will be utilizing the same consultant that the County is using. The following further
explains the four areas: Item #1 - This is the typical street lighting associated with any design
project. Item g2 - This is the design of a sanitary sewer line that has been identified on our
most recent master plan that will be coming forward for Council adoption January 10, 1995.
It is my opinion that it would be prudent to design it now and include it the construction of
Sandy Lake Road at this time instead of having to cut the street to make the connection at some
point in the furore. Item #3 - This is the upgrade of the signalization at MacArthur Blvd. and
Sandy Lake Road to provide for the standard controllers currently used in the City of Coppell.
Item #4 - This is a byproduct of a meeting with the owners of the strip retail shopping center
at the northeast corner of Sandy Lake Road and MacArthur Blvd. There is some concern that
the future six lane roadway will eliminate the entire row of parking that currently faces Sandy
Lake Road on the north side of Sandy Lake Road. This is a preliminary look at the feasibility
of shifting the roadway south to miss the shopping center. If it is feasible and the City wishes
to pursue it, there would be additional cost associated with redesigning the project from the
preliminary to the final plan stage.
The City recommends approving the contract with Sverdrup, Civil, Inc. in the amount of
$39,774.07 for improvements associated with Sandy l_atke Road from MacArthur to the east City
Limits and authorizing the Mayor to sign.
Staff will be available to answer any questions at the Council meeting.
