Title
Consider a resolution approving an Interlocal Agreement with Tarrant County to rehabilitate and resurface Whitley Road from Rapp Road to North Tarrant Parkway, for the Public Works Department; and authorizing the City Manager to execute said agreement.
Action Requested:
Approve a resolution authorizing an Interlocal Agreement with Tarrant County, Exhibit “A”, for the rehabilitation and resurfacing of Whitley Road from Rapp Road to North Tarrant Parkway.
Background:
As part of the approved fiscal year 2022-23 budget, funding was allocated in the Street System Capital Improvements Project Fund budget to provide an overlay of Whitley Road. Each year, depending on the availability of County staff, Public Works identifies candidate streets for a collaborative resurfacing effort with Tarrant County.
Whitley Road was chosen for the 2023 effort based on roadway condition, scope of work, and the consistency with other roadway project priorities established in the Pavement Maintenance Program. Approximately 1.2 miles (6,379 linear feet) of Whitley Road will be rehabilitated and resurfaced. The location is shown on the attached Location Map, Exhibit “B”.
As part of this partnership, Precinct 3 of Tarrant County agrees to provide the labor and equipment necessary for this work. The City of Keller in turn agrees to cover actual costs of material removal, base preparation, new material, traffic control and ½ of the fuel required. The City’s estimated cost for this street work is $548,009.17 with a budget of $1,500,000.
Financial Impact:
Funds are budgeted in the Street System Capital Improvements Project Fund with funding provided by the General Fund.
