MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Kenneth M Griffin, P E, Director of Engineering and Public Works
DATE: May 23, 2006
REF: Consider approval of a resolution authorizing the use of Community Development
Block Grant funds from FY 2006 in the amount of $59,284 for the installation of
Americans with Disabilities Act compliant automatic doors at the Coppell Aquatic
and Recreation Center and the William T Cozby Public Library, and for the
completion of the FY 2005 funded project - Samuel Boulevard Curb Ramps (SW
05 -01), and authorizing the City Manager to execute the necessary documents for
such funds, and authorizing the Mayor to sign.
The City of Coppell is eligible to receive $59,824 in FY 2006 CDBG funding from Dallas
County on October 1, 2006 The city is interested in utilizing the new FY 2006 funding and is
completing the requirements of the allocation process
The public meeting for citizen input on possible projects for CDBG FY 2006 funding was held
on April 25, 2006 Following the meeting, it was decided that the installation of automatic doors
at the Coppell Aquatic and Recreation Center (CARC) and the William T Cozby Public Library
would be an appropriate project. The remaining funds from FY 2006 would be used towards the
completion of the FY 2005 funded project - Samuel Boulevard Curb Ramps
The existing swing, double -doors at the front, front vestibule, back and back vestibule entries to
CAR(- meet the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards for door opening force
required to push or pull a door open However, most of the activities at the center require the
individual to have their own exercise and /or swimming equipment Opening these doors while
carrying eyiiipment can be difficult for someone with a disability Many of these individuals are
seniors and persons in rehabilitation and an automatic door would better meet their needs
There is a pair of single -doors at the front entry and a pair of single doors at the vestibule entry to
the library One of the single -doors at each of the entries is an ADA compliant, push- button,
automatic s%\ mg door The other single -doors are swing doors that also meet ADA standards
The automatic doors swing in one direction and have numerous maintenance problems due to
children playing with the buttons and the wind catching the front entry door when it is in the
process of swinging shut It is no longer economical to maintain the automatic doors at each of
the entries and they need to be replaced with another type of automatic door system
The existing double -doors at the front, front vestibule, back and back vestibule entrees to CARC
will be removed and replaced with a biparting automatic sliding door system The pair of
single -doors at the front entry and the pair of single -doors at the vestibule entry to the library will
be removed and replaced with a biparting automatic sliding door system. All of the door systems
at both facilities will have two -way motion sensors, dual safety beams, and threshold presence
sensors Providing ADA compliant, automatic doors at CARC and the library will benefit the
entire city
The estimated cost for the development of the bid specifications, removal of the existing doors,
and the installation of biparting automatic sliding door systems at the CARC and library is
$53,668 00 This leaves $5,616 00 remaining in FY 2006 funding that we will request to be
added to the FY 2005 funds for the completion of the Samuel Boulevard Curb Ramps project.
The estimated cost for the design survey and construction of the Samuel Boulevard Curb Ramps
project was $72,205 00 The city has FY 2005 funds in the amount of $72,379 68 Increased
surveying costs, and the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation requirements have
increased the estimated cost of the project to $77,165 00
The Project /Activity Application for each project along with a resolution authorizing the
submission of the proposed projects must be submitted to Dallas County by May 26, 2006
Staff recommends approval of the resolution authorizing the use of FY 2006 Community
Development Block Grant funds for the installation of Americans with Disabilities Act
compliant automatic doors at the Coppell Aquatic and Recreation Center and the William T
Cozby Public Library and for the completion of the FY 2005 funded project - Samuel Boulevard
Curb Ramps (SW 05 -01)
Staff will be available to answer any questions
