SUBJECT
Title
Consider recommendation of approval of Jagoe Public Company, Denton, TX, for the construction of a Middle Road Entrance for the Solid Waste and Recycling Department in the amount of $1,487,071. (RFP 6218)
Body
BACKGROUND
The City of Denton's Solid Waste and Recycling Department issued Request for Proposal (RFP) #6218 for the construction of a new entrance at the City's ECO-W.E.R.C.S. facility.
The ECO-W.E.R.C.S. facility is currently accessed at the intersection of Mayhill Road and Spencer Road. This entrance is planned to be taken out of service during the construction of new Mayhill Road and a new substation belonging to Denton Municipal Electric (DME), on the ECO-W.E.R.C.S. site.
The existing facility roadway consists of two lanes, one entering and one exiting the facility. The facility has seen substantial traffic growth over the last few years which has increased the number of vehicles entering and exiting the facility. The proposed new entrance road will also add one additional lane to accommodate increased traffic and expected traffic growth entering the facility. The City of Denton's Landfill receives approximately 1,000 tons of municipal solid waste a day from the City of Denton and surrounding communities. The proposed construction project will take an estimated 180 days to complete.
There were two responses to the Request for Proposals (RFP) #6218, with the staff recommending the award be provided to Jagoe Public Company, Denton, TX.
OPTIONS
The Public Utilities Board (PUB) may recommend the Middle Road Entrance for the City of Denton's Solid Waste and Recycling Department be constructed by Jagoe Public Company, Denton, Tx., or they may recommend the other respondent to the RFP.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Middle Entrance Road entrance area be constructed by Jagoe Public Company, Denton, Tx.
