Ken Griffin, P.E., Director of Engineering/Public Works
February 14, 2006
Consider approval of an interlocal agreement between the City of Coppell and the City of
Grapevine to provide for joint bidding of the construction of Bethel Road and Bass Pro
Drive, between S. H. 121 and Freeport Parkway, and authorizing the Mayor to sign.
In February 2001, City Council approved a design contract with TranSystems to design Bethel Rd.
within the City of Coppell, from Freeport Pkwy. to our west city limits. Subsequent to that, we worked
closely with the City of Grapevine to insure that Bass Pro Dr., from the City of Coppell's west city
limits to S.H. 121, would be designed and constructed in a similar time frame. The City of Grapevine
then hired TranSystems to design Bass Pro Dr. in the City of Grapevine. The design of both Bethel
Rd. and Bass Pro Dr. is complete, right-of-way has been acquired and utility relocations have begun.
One concern that both cities have had during this process is that to bid the project separately could
mean that different contractors would be working on basically the same roadway in the same
timeframe, and there may be lack of coordination between the two contractors.
Since early 2004, the cities of Coppell and Grapevine have been working to draft an interlocal
agreement that would allow both Bethel Rd. and Bass Pro Dr. to be bid at one time, as one project,
with both cities financially responsible for the portion of the roadway xvithin their respective city.
Over the past two years, the interlocal agreement has taken on various forms. However, the sole
purpose for the interlocal agreement was to allow for joint bidding so that one contractor was working
on both projects. The agreement with this agenda item does accomplish that goal. In the fourth
"Whereas" on the 1st page, it states that the "sole purpose of this Agreement is to provide for the joint
bidding of the project by the Cities to obtain a common contractor for the work in both cities".
Section 2.02 states that each city will cause the construction of the portion of the roadway within their
respective city.
Section 2.07 states that the award will be to the successful low bidder on the total project. It is
conceivable that there could be a low bidder on the section in Coppell that would not be the overall
low bidder considering both Coppell and Grapevine. However, it is the opinion of both cities, that
while that may occur, the overriding benefit of having one contractor on the project outweighs what
could be an additional cost to either Coppell or Grapevine, by going with the overall bidder (see
example).
"EXAMPLE"
Bidder 'A' Coppell Section $5,000,000.
Bidder 'B' Coppell Section $4,900,000.
Bidder 'A' Grapevine Section $6,000,000.
Bidder 'B' Grapevine Section $6,200,000.
Total Bid for Bidder 'A' is $11,000,000.
Total Bid for Bidder 'B' is $11,100,000.
In this example, the overall low bidder for the project is Bidder 'A' and per the interlocal that would be
the contractor that both Grapevine and Coppell ~vould award the bid to. However, in the example, the
overall low bidder for the City of Coppell was actually Bidder 'B', but because they were not the
overall low bidder, their bid would not be awarded.
Section 2.10 states that after the bid opening, each city will enter into a separate contract with the
contractor for the portion of the project within their respective city. This is important so that we do not
get involved in any issue that may arise on the section of Bass Pro within the City of Grapevine. By
the same token, we would not want Grapevine interjecting themselves in any issue that may arise in the
City of Coppell on Bethel Rd. So, it is important for each city to enter into and maintain a separate
contract with the common contractor.
As previously stated, it is staffs opinion that having one contractor on the entire project is
advantageous to both Coppell and Grapevine. Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council
approve the interlocal agreement between the City of Coppell and the City of Grapevine. Staff will be
available to answer any questions at the Council meeting.

Interlocal Agreement,' Construction of Bethel Road/Bass Pro Drive
ProJeCt # ST99-05
[)ear Mr. }lodge:
Attached to this letter is a revised Interlocal Agreement proposed between the c~t~es of Grapevine and
Coppelh I have taken the original 'draft' agreement provided by your office and revised it. In our prior
meetings concerning these projects, there has been discussion concerning the City of Coppell overseeing the
construction of both projects up to and including inspection. The agreement, as originally presented,
included language that the City of Coppell would provide all construction inspection and construction
management. I have revised thc agreement so that the scope of the agreement pertains strictly to the bidding
ot the projects.
I added a ~WIIEREAS' on the first page stating that the sole puq~ose is to provide for the joint bidding of
lhe pr(~lect and to obtain a common contraclor for the work. I deleted portions of Section II, which discussed
Grapevine reimbursing Coppel] for the cost of the project and the City of Coppell providing construction
mspecnon and construction management for the project. I then added a new paragraph which states that
neither c~ty will unnecessarily withhold the award of the bid alter the bid opening.
Thc revismns are different than some of our prior discussions, however, it is my belief that the intent all
along was to obtain a corrm~on design engineer, which we did; and then to obtain a common contractor to
construct the project.
The City of Coppell only employees three construction inspectors and in the next six months we will be
starting tN'cc major roadway projects, several major water and sew'er line projects, and the construction ora
lift station. The itu-cc inspectors also inspect all private development that continues within the City of
( oppcll. Staff wise, thc city cannol take on lhe management ora project within another city.
Once you ha;'e had the opportunity to reviexv the revised agreement, I will be happy to discuss the timetable
lbr Bethel Road and Bass Pro Drive with you.

Attached is an lnterlocal that Grapevine has prepared for the City of Coppell to manage and inspect the reconstruction of Bethel Road, even
the portion in Grapevine that is called "Bass Pro". The Interlocal is basic, however, I have emailed Grapevine and told them that the
inspection of Bass Pro in Grapevine would require that Grapevine pay for our inspectors time. It is noted in Section II.4. of the lnterlocal.
It's my opinion that the City should not be providing free services in an adjacent City ( it might not even be legal). Anyway, let me know
what your comments are on the Interlocal.
Thanks

We heard from DFW that the requests for easements are going forward.
Will you be proceeding forward with the plans as they currently are or

the City of Grapevine will be providing inspection services for the
portion that is in Grapevine. Please let me know if that is your
understanding and if you need any more information from me.
Thanks and have a great day.

Lama,
Thanks for the Interlocal Draft. I am currently having our attorney
review it. However, the following area needs clarification - Section
II-Obligations of the Parties...4. The cities agree that Coppell will
provide all construction inspection and construction management for
the
project.
We did discuss Coppell providing the inspection for the entire
project,
however, it was not our intention to provide this service for free.
We
typically charge 4% of the value of the project to provide inspection.
On our own projects we pay our inspectors out of the project funds so
we
obtain a true accounting of the cost of the project.
Please review this and let me know Grapevines position.
Thanks,
Ken Griffin
