N s T:engineeringlcou cil maps/ deka nhage_channelblw_sheet ▪ Ryan 8 • Sergio M Ode: 09/26/06 DATE: October 5, 2006 SUBJECT: City Council Meeting, October 12, 2006 ITEM: 11.A.1. Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Cost Participation Agreement with Dell USA L.P. for a drainage channel repair project. Department: Engineering and Development Service Staff Person: Danny Halden, City Engineer Justification: The channel has steadily deteriorated over the years. Holes have developed in the concrete lining and these holes are allowing storm water to progressively undercut the lining, leading to further deterioration. During large storm events, erosive water carries debris and soil away from the damaged areas into the downstream channel. The deterioration of the channel has made necessary equipment access difficult but also dangerous because of the unknown support capabilities of the existing concrete lining. Funding: Cost: $120,000.00 Source of funds: 2002 G. O. Bonds Outside Resources: Dell USA L.P. Background Information: In 1994/1995, the City managed a Texas Capital Fund Project that established public infrastructure around the developing Dell campuses. This project included drainage channel improvements from Gattis School Road through Windy Park Subdivision up to the Dell property along the east side of Greenlawn Boulevard. In 1998, Dell developed the east campus and established a retention pond east of Buildings 7 & 8. This pond discharges into the south end of the aforementioned channel. It appears that over time, water piping around the pond's outlet structure as well as the discharges over the pond spillway have undercut the concrete lining of the channel. Once the subgrade had eroded, it left an unsupported concrete channel lining. Subsequently, holes developed in various areas due to hydraulic forces, unsupported concrete weight, expansion/contraction cracking, and/or other reasons. Upon inspection of the failed areas, it appears that much of the reinforcing steel had not been properly placed within the concrete. Dell has requested that the City participate in the channel repair by managing the contract for the repair and contributing to half of the cost.
