SUBJECT: Boeing Access Road over BNRR Bridge Rehabilitation Pro'lect

ISSUE
Approve Burlington Northern Santa Fe's (BNSF) flagging and inspection cost increases.
BACKGROUND
In October 2013, the City contracted with Jacobs Engineering, Inc. to provide the design for the
rehabilitation of the Boeing Access Road over BNRR Bridge. The BNSF Overpass Agreement
allows the City and its contractor to work in the BNSF right-of-way and pays for required railroad
flagging and inspection services performed by BNSF.
ANALYSIS
BNSF's Overpass Agreement is for required construction and maintenance costs related to the
work over the railroad's right-of-way and covers inspection services and flagging required by the
BNSF. Average charges from the previous six months were used to forecast the additional flagging
costs of $300,000.00.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Overpass Agreement is within the approved construction management budget which includes
a contingency for unanticipated work.

current bridge standards.

funding in 2012 for federal bridge funds. A Public Works Trust Fund (PWTF) loan was rescinded in 2013.

Bridge will be rehabilitated in phases to allow continued traffic use. Federal bridge grant of $9,745,600
requires a 20% local match. A bond issue for the City match was issued in 2015 with the Interurban Ave S.

I. PRESENTATIONS
II. BUSINESS AGENDA
BNSF Flagggingand Inspection Cost Increases
Staff is seeking Council approval of BNSF's increased flagging and inspection costs for the
remainder of the Boeing Access Road over BN RR Bridge Rehabilitation Project. An Overpass
Agreement currently in effect allows the City and its contractor to work in the BNSF right-of-
way and pays for the required railroad flagging and inspection services performed by BNSF.
The original flagging and inspection fees were estimated at $149,428, and the additional
$300,000 was calculated based upon average charges from the previous six months. The
project contingency is sufficient to cover this additional cost. Committee members expressed
concern about the change in cost and asked staff to communicate with BNSF to ensure there
are no further increases. The Committee decided to place this item under New Business at the
May 7, 2018 Council meeting rather than the Consent Agenda to give staff opportunity to
explain the change. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO MAY 7, 2018 REGULAR
MEETING.
B. Bid Award: 2018 Overlay and Repair Program
Staff is seeking Council approval to award a construction bid to ICON Materials in the amount of
$955,945.50 for the 2018 Overlay and Repair Program. Construction will include pavement repairs
and an asphalt overlay at four locations in the City as determined by the pavement condition index
rating on which all roads in the City are evaluated. ICON was the low bidder and constructed last
year's overlay program and staff was very happy with their work. Chair McLeod heard from a
resident with professional experience in road paving who shared personal opinions about the
responsive bidders. Chair McLeod asked what compels the City to go with the lowest responsive
bidder and staff replied this is state law. Unless the City has a specific negative experience with a
company, it cannot legally turn down the lowest responsive bid. Councilmember Quinn noted that
funding of this program should be evaluated with regard to the 2019-2020 budget. The Committee
decided to place this item under New Business rather than the Consent Agenda of the May 7, 2018
Regular Meeting. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO MAY 7, 2018 REGULAR MEETING.
