Hopkins Street— Preliminary Engineering Attachment A January 22, 2015 (3) Develop conceptual schematic design documents based on public input. (a) Prepare a plan and profile schematic layout on a roll plot at 1" = 100' scale of the preliminary design developed using the information from the Complete Street Analysis (5.A.1). (b) Include proposed roadway improvements (curb, sidewalk, bus pads, and medians) and typical sections at select locations. (c) Coordinate with TxDOT to obtain concurrence on selected final proposed roadway improvements. TxDOT coordination will include sending them a copy of the schematic (PDF) and conducting 2 meetings. (d) Roadway design will be based on TxDOT criteria. (4) Identify ROW and Easement acquisition needs /requirements based on the schematic design. (5) Provide updated opinions of probable construction costs including alternate pavement sections, which include estimates of contingencies. In arriving at its opinion of probable construction cost for the Project, FNI will utilize locally advertised average unit cost and /or TxDOT average unit cost. B. Pavement Design (1) Design pavement sections using TxDOT pavement design criteria. (2) Prepare pavement design report for submittal, review and approval by TxDOT. C. Utility Coordination (1) Coordinate with local franchise utility companies to determine which agencies have facilities within the project limits. (2) Provide a location map of the project to franchise utilities (Telecom, Gas, etc.) and request block maps, GIS data, and /or as -built drawings. Incorporate data collected into base files to be displayed on the schematic. D. Deliverables: Conceptual schematic design documents and updated opinions of probable construction cost that will be used for the second public meeting and to establish the design components for the 30% design submittal. 6. Public Involvement A. Assist the City in conducting two (2) public meetings and one (1) Council presentation: (1) The first public meeting would describe the project, present the staff recommended surface improvements (2013 FNI work product) as starting point for community feedback (surface /transportation design sections and plan view, discuss alternatives /options) as well as preliminary streetscape concept designs . Additionally, the first public meeting will be used to gather information from residents regarding local drainage /flooding concerns. (2) The second public meeting would be to report backto the public on modifications made to the design based on the first meeting and any comments received during the comment period, report on the results of the drainage study, and solidify support before presenting the project to the City Council. (3) Assist City Staff in presenting the results of the drainage study, public input process, opinions of probable construction cost, and phasing recommendations at a City Council work session or meeting.
