FRIENDSWOOD CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM FORM
This form should be completed and forwarded to the City Manager's Office as soon as possible prior to the first date that the item is
expected to be placed on the Friendswood City Council agenda .
Date requested for City Council consideration: June 7 , 2021
Date submitted: 04/22/2021
Prepared by: Glenda Faulkner, Executive -Secretary
Subject: Discuss and take possible action on RFP 2021-03 for the concrete wall project between
Centennial Park and Lakes of Falcon Ridge,
Originating Department: Parks and Recreation
Degree of importance: Choose an Option
SUMMARY/ ORIGINATING CAUSE
In June of 2020 representatives from the Lakes of Falcon Ridge Subdivision made contact with the City
inquiring about the condition and safety of the existing 2729 linear feet of concrete block wall that
separates the subdivision from Centennial Park and Friendswood Junior High. The City authorized
Moghaddam Engineering, LLC to perform an engineering study to investigate the condition of the wall
and provide recommendations to correct deficiencies, The Engineer's recommended option is to remove
the entire wall, columns and concrete base and construct a new fence.
In March of 2021 the City advertised a request for proposal to remove the existing 6' block wall and
construct a new wall. The lone bid was submitted by Republic Wall and Fencing for the amount of
$416,188.55 to remove and dispose of the existing concrete block wall and construct a new 6' "Verticrete"
wall.
Following the terms of the existing Partnership Agreement between the Lakes of Falcon Ridge
Subdivision and the City of Friendswood, each entity agrees to equally share in the cost for replacement.
The Lakes of Falcon Ridge HOA has agreed to move forward and will be invoiced $208,094 .27 should
the item be approved by City Council.
*The funding source for the City's portion of the expense will be unassigned General Fund balance.
IMMINENT CONSEQUENCES / BENEFIT TO COMMUNITY
The existing concrete wall is failing and is a potential safety hazard due to the lack of proper
reinforcement. The wall exhibits tilting changes from 1 to 7 inches and cracking throughout that range .
from 1 to 10 inches.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Approve the sole RFP from Republic Wall and Fencing and remove and replace the concrete block wall.
