COUNCIL MEMBER? YES.WE'LL MOVE ON TO ITEM BE CONSIDER DISCUSS ACTION ON A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE EMERGENCY PURCHASE OF MATERIALS, LABOR AND SERVICES FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A SANITARY SEWER MAIN NEAR SLATER CREEK IN THE CITY OF ANNA, TEXAS.
MR. PETERS. THANK YOU, MAYOR, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.
THIS ITEM IS BEFORE YOU TONIGHT TO GET YOUR APPROVAL FOR THE THE FUNDING.
THE FUNDING FOR THIS WILL COME OUT OF OUR EXISTING ANNUAL OPERATING BUDGET FOR SANITARY SEWER.
SO THERE'S NO BUDGET AMENDMENT REQUIRED, NO ADDITIONAL FUNDS.
WE'RE DOING THIS AS A MAINTENANCE PROJECT.
THE REASON FOR THE PROJECT IS THAT IT CAME TO LIGHT THAT THE PREVIOUS SPLASH PAD DID NOT DISCHARGE INTO THE SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM, THAT IT ACTUALLY DISCHARGED OVER INTO THE DITCH THAT RUNS NORTH, SOUTH TO THE EAST.
AS YOU ALL KNOW, WE WE HAVE A VERY TIGHT SCHEDULE AND THIS IS A PUBLIC PROJECT.
AND SO IN ORDER TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THIS, WE CONSULTED WITH THE CITY ATTORNEY SINCE THIS IS A HEALTH AND SAFETY SITUATION THAT WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE TAKE CARE OF.
WE'RE DOING THIS AS AN EMERGENCY PURCHASE.
THE CONTRACTOR HAS BROKEN GROUND AND STARTED WORK, BUT WE DO NEED YOUR APPROVAL OF THIS ITEM TONIGHT SO THAT WE CAN GO AHEAD AND MAKE SURE THAT ALL OF THE FUNDING IS PROPERLY APPROVED.
SINCE IT IS OVER $50,000, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.
THIS ISN'T GOING TO DELAY THE PROJECT AT ALL, IS IT? NO, SIR.
SO THE CONTRACTORS ALREADY ON SITE AND HAS STARTED WORK.
AND THAT WAS SPECIFICALLY ONE OF THE QUESTIONS THAT WE HAD WHEN WE STARTED TO REACH OUT TO FIND A CONTRACTOR TO DO THIS WAS TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY COULD GET OUT HERE IMMEDIATELY AND GET STARTED AND THAT THIS WORK WOULD BE DONE SO THAT THE PROJECT WOULD STAY ON SCHEDULE.
OKAY. GREG, HOW LONG DO YOU THINK IT'S GOING TO TAKE FOR THEM TO GET THIS DONE? A COUPLE OF WEEKS OR A MONTH.
I WOULD SAY IT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE SOMEWHERE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF 30 TO 45 DAYS TOTAL.
BUT WE WE EXPECT MOST OF THE MATERIALS ARE ON SITE.
PROBABLY THE BIGGEST TIME SENSITIVE ITEM IS GOING TO BE GETTING THE MANHOLES INSTALLED.
I THINK ACTUALLY PUTTING IN THE PIPE IS GOING TO GO PRETTY QUICK JUST TO SAVE EVERYTHING.
SO RIGHT THERE, A LOT OF MIDDLE SCHOOL KIDS WALK HOME IN THAT DIRECTION.
AS WE KNOW. THEY DAMAGE OUR BATHROOMS ALL THE TIME.
AND THE PARK WILL I'M ASSUMING THE CONTRACTOR IS TAKING ALL PRECAUTIONS TO KEEP THEM SAFE WHENEVER THEY CROSS WHERE THEY'RE DIGGING OR ARE THEY GOING TO BORE UNDER THAT SIDEWALK? YES. SO I BELIEVE THAT WHAT WE HAVE PLANNED OUT IS THAT WE'RE GOING TO REMOVE THAT SECTION OF SIDEWALK, BUT THEN POUR IT BACK.
BUT WE WILL PROPERLY PUT UP FENCING AND MAKE SURE THAT IT'S ALL SECURE AND SAFE.
OKAY. HUH? ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? NO. MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE ITEM 6B.
AND I BELIEVE WE ARE GOING TO VOTE ON OUR TECHNOLOGY.
YEAH, WE'RE. WE'RE PAYING ATTENTION.
WE'RE JUST TRYING TO LEARN OUR NEW CLICKING.
IF YOU HEAR, Y'ALL HEAR CLICKS.
IT SHOULD BE UP THERE IN A MINUTE.
ALL RIGHT. ITEM C IS CONSIDERED DISCUSS ACTION ON A RESOLUTION AWARDING THE PHASE ONE DOWNTOWN UTILITY REHABILITATION PROJECT TO CANARY. CONSTRUCTION.
JUSTIN CLAY, CIP MANAGER, CITY OF ANNA.
TONIGHT'S ITEM BRINGING FOR YOU ALL HOPING TO GET APPROVED TO SIGN A CONTRACT BY THE CITY MANAGER APPROVING CANARY CONSTRUCTION TO CONSTRUCT WATER MAINS DOWN RIGGINS AND SEVENTH, AS WELL AS SOME SANITARY SEWER ACROSS INNER URBAN ON FIFTH STREET.
THIS PROJECT IS PART OF THE DOWNTOWN UTILITY REHAB.
[00:20:05]
UPGRADED. WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE AN ISSUE WHERE WE HAVE A WATER MAIN BREAK UNDER A BRAND NEW PAVING.SO WE'RE TRYING TO GET THIS STARTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
AND THEN PHASE TWO WILL BE COMING SHORTLY.
WE'LL BE COMING BACK TO COUNCIL FOR GET APPROVAL FOR PHASE TWO.
I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU GUYS HAVE.
JUST TO COMMENT, I THINK THIS IS A GREAT THING.
YOU KNOW, WHEN WE TAKE A LOOK AT THIS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR DOWNTOWN, WE ARE SETTING THE STAGE FOR THE FUTURE OF DOWNTOWN AND WHAT DOWNTOWN ANNA WILL LOOK LIKE.
THIS MONEY UPFRONT TO REHAB THE INFRASTRUCTURE AND GET THIS READY IS A GREAT THING.
SO I KNOW YOU GUYS HAVE WORKED HARD ON THAT AND COUNCIL.
SO IT'S EXCITING TO SEE THIS GETTING GETTING UNDERWAY.
ANY QUESTIONS ON ITEM C? DO I HAVE A MOTION ON ITEM C? I MOVE WE APPROVE ITEM C.
DO I HAVE A SECOND? BY COUNCILMAN TOTEN.
ORDER NUMBER PARKS FOR THE DESIGN OF A TRAIL SYSTEM IMPROVEMENT ADJACENT TO THE PECAN GROVE SUBDIVISION. ALL RIGHT.
GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.
THIS IS A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES PROJECT ORDER WHICH WILL AMEND THE MASTER AGREEMENT THAT WE HAVE WITH JACOBS ENGINEERING THAT WAS SIGNED BACK IN JULY OF 2021.
AND THIS IS FOR THE DESIGN OF A SECTION OF TRAIL THAT WILL BASICALLY CONNECT TWO CUL DE SACS ALONG EACH END OF PECAN GROVE PARK, AND THAT CAN BE SEEN IN THE THE DASHED WHITE LINE.
AND THEN THERE IS THIS CONTRACT WILL INCLUDE A 100% DESIGN FOR CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS FOR THAT SEGMENT OF TRAIL.
AND THEN THAT LITTLE YELLOW DASHED PIECE UP ON THE NORTHERN TIP IS THE BRIDGE CROSSING THAT WILL BE REQUIRED TO GET OVER TO THE EXISTING TRAIL AT PARK PLACE.
AND WE HAVE 10% DESIGN OF THAT IN THIS CONTRACT.
WE'RE BASICALLY ASKING THEM TO SURVEY THAT AREA, LOOK FOR THE BEST CROSSING AND DO AN ANALYSIS OF THE FLOODPLAIN TO SEE WHAT KIND OF ISSUES WE'RE DEALING WITH AND IF IF IT'S FEASIBLE TO GO AHEAD AND MOVE FORWARD.
I WOULD LIKE BRIEFLY TO KIND OF SHOW YOU WHERE WE'RE AT.
AND THE OVERALL WHAT'S IN THE PARK SYSTEM MASTER PLAN AS IT RELATED TO TRAILS.
ALL RIGHT. WELL, SO PECAN GROVE IS ACTUALLY LABELED ON THIS.
THIS IS STRAIGHT OUT OF THE PARK SYSTEM MASTER PLAN.
IT'S DOWN IN THE SOUTHWESTERN PORTION OF THE CITY.
AND THIS THIS SEGMENT OF TRAIL IS LIMITED WITHIN THAT THAT PIECE OF PARK LAND.
BUT I WANTED TO SHOW YOU THIS.
THESE THESE NEXT TWO SLIDES ARE STRAIGHT OUT OF THE PARK SYSTEM MASTER PLAN.
AND EVERYTHING IN RED HAS BEEN CONSTRUCTED.
SO THERE'S A SEGMENT IN PARK PLACE THAT HAS BEEN BUILT SINCE THE MASTER PLAN WAS APPROVED.
AND THEN THERE'S A SEGMENT UP IN OAK HOLLOW ON THE THE FIRST GRAPHIC ON THE LEFT THAT'S BEEN DONE.
THERE'S ALSO A SEGMENT ON WEST CROSSING THAT'S BEEN COMPLETED.
AND THEN FINALLY, THERE'S A PIECE.
[00:25:01]
THIS HASN'T BEEN BUILT YET, BUT IT WILL BE BUILT WHEN ARDEN PARK DEVELOPS THAT WILL CONNECT A SEGMENT.AND THIS IS ACTUALLY GOING TO GO ON TO PARK PROPERTY AND CONNECT TO EXISTING TRAIL.
SO I JUST WANTED TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF THAT.
WE ARE SLOWLY BUT SURELY GETTING THESE TRAIL SEGMENTS INSTALLED.
DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? HAPPY TO ANSWER. THANK YOU.
COUNCIL. ANY QUESTIONS? ITEM 6D.
I JUST. I LIVE IN COTTAGE GROVE.
I FIGURED YOU WOULD HAVE. YEAH.
AND WHENEVER A LOT OF PEOPLE WERE TOLD THAT WHENEVER THEY BOUGHT THEIR HOUSES, I THINK EVEN WHEN YOU BOUGHT YOUR HOUSE, WHEN YOU LIVED THERE FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, YOU WERE TOLD THAT THERE WOULD BE A TRAIL BACK TO PECAN GROVE.
SO IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING AFTER 15 YEARS.
I'D LIKE TO NOTE. I'M JUST KIDDING.
I'D LIKE TO NOTE I'VE ONLY WORKED HERE FOR JUST OVER TWO YEARS.
I'M JUST GIVING YOU A HARD TIME, BUT I JUST, I'M EXCITED.
SO IT'S FINALLY WE CAN BE CONNECTED.
AND I CAN'T WAIT FOR FERGUSON TO GET FINISHED SO WE CAN CONNECT TO EVEN MORE SO.
YEAH, I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE.
OKAY. MOTION BY COUNCILMAN TOTEN.
DO I HAVE A SECOND? I WILL SECOND THAT REQUEST.
