The Board approved the CR 1229 and CR 1126A Water Line Improvement Project as part of the District’s Capital Improvements Program, aimed at improving water pressure and system reliability for customers along CR 1229 and CR 1228. The project entails installing approximately 8,300 linear feet of 8-inch waterline along CR 1229 and CR 1126A to address ongoing pressure issues, particularly during periods of high demand. Following a competitive bidding process that resulted in 20 proposals, Capital Underground Utilities LLC was the lowest bidder. The project was designed by MAS Engineers, who also assisted with bid evaluation, and funding is supported by the District’s Capital Improvement Budget, with $1.1 million previously allocated and carried forward into the 2026 budget.
The Board also approved a Professional Services Agreement with Hazen and Sawyer to provide planning, design, and engineering services for a major water transmission project that will deliver treated wholesale water from the City of Arlington to JCSUD. Following a competitive RFQ process that yielded eight submissions, District staff and a selection committee evaluated qualifications, interviewed the top three firms, and selected Hazen based on experience and overall ranking. The project includes approximately 135,000 feet of 42-inch transmission main extending from the City of Arlington to JCSUD’s Plant 21 site and encompasses a comprehensive scope of work covering planning, design, permitting, easement acquisition, and project delivery. The Board authorized the General Manager to execute the agreement, with professional service fees estimated at $22.16 million under a Design-Bid-Build delivery method or $22.92 million under a Construction Manager at Risk delivery method, spread over approximately 30 months. The project will be funded through a combination of Impact Fees, wholesale participation, and District cash reserves.
JCSUD employee Vivien Garcia was recognized for three years of service with the District.
