Horizons Infrastructure Mike Meyers and Frank Weatherford appeared on behalf of TranSystems Update Engineering to update the aldermen on Horizons infrastructure. They gave a brief overview and then opened it for questions and discussion. Alderman Super asked what was designed for Horizons Parkway. Weatherford replied that the parkway was designed from the I-635 interchange to the north intersection. He added that at the core team meeting with MODOT, they confirmed that they had agreed with the practical design of Hwy. 9 at an earlier meeting. Alderman Beard asked about the revised traffic study and its impact. Weatherford said the study did not affect the design of Horizons South. City Administrator David Blackburn asked them to talk about the lift station. Weatherford discussed the location of the lift station and the access to it. He said 2 options had been studied: 1) Access from the east going under I-635 to the northeast corner of the property. Drainage might be a problem and so a box culvert would have to be installed as well as a jet fuel line relocated. Estimated cost would be $1.3 million. 2) Access going due east off Horizons North to the northeast comer of the property. This is the recommended route with an aggregate road bed. Alderman Beard asked about the design of the access road and if it includes a horizontal design. Weatherford said the design will be horizontal. The goal is to not spend much money on it but it will need to carry the load. Weatherford said they need direction and approval to design the access road and work on the practical design of Hwy. 9. Alderman Hurt asked how the city is charged on projects. Weatherford replied that there is one contract and the city is billed hourly with anot-to-exceed number. The bill is based on every hour worked and each category of a position at TranSystems charges a special rate. Finance Officer Donna Resz presented a spreadsheet detailing the portion of the contract that had been invoiced and the amount remaining. City Attorney John McClelland told the board that if they are satisfied with TranSystem's explanation of the progress of their work so far and the work that is planned, a change order can be placed on the agenda for January 2. Weatherford noted, in closing, that the I-635 interchange construction is on track to complete by November 2007 or perhaps before. At 6:34 p.m., the board took a short break.
