CITY COUNCIL MEMO
2026-3075
MEETING OF OCTOBER 6, 2026
TO: Mayor Rawn and City Council
THROUGH: Jennifer Walker, Chief of Staff
FROM: Tim Nyander, Utilities Director
SUBJECT: McClelland Consulting Engineers, Inc. - Amendment No. 1 for Interstate 612-E &
Highway 264 Utility Relocations
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of Amendment No. 1 to the engineering services agreement with McClelland
Consulting Engineers, Inc. for professional services associated with ARDOT Project 012366 Utility Relocations
in the vicinity of Highway 264 and future Interstate 612 in an amount not to exceed $565,430.00, and approval
of a budget amendment.
BACKGROUND:
ARDOT has notified the City of Fayetteville to relocate water infrastructure in the vicinity of the Highway 264
and Primrose Lane intersection in Springdale, AR. ARDOT is planning a new section of Interstate 612 (also
called the Springdale Bypass) to connect to Highway 412 near Beaver Lake. After receiving this notification, a
formal selection committee was held on November 6, 2025, at which McClelland Consulting Engineers was
selected for contract negotiations (RFQ 25-01, Selection 17). The project scope includes relocation of
approximately 1,800 linear feet of 36-inch and 1,800 linear feet of 42-inch water transmission line. Due to
necessary realignments, it is estimated the total length of the replacement will be up to 8,000 linear feet.
DISCUSSION:
Preliminary engineering due-diligence and alignment selection is ongoing under the original engineering
agreement scope. Amendment No. 1 will provide funds to move the project from 15% design to 100% design
and bidding support.
Much of this project appears to be reimbursable to the City by ARDOT. The reimbursable share will be set in a
formal relocation agreement with ARDOT, which will be presented to City Council once negotiated. ARDOT
requires consultant work to be authorized by the Department before it begins in order to remain eligible for
reimbursement.
BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT:
Fund balance will be used to transfer funds to the Water & Sewer Relocations account to cover the cost of this
amendment.

CITY COUNCIL MEMO
2026-997
MEETING OF APRIL 7, 2026
TO: Mayor Rawn and City Council
THROUGH: Keith Macedo, Chief of Staff
FROM: Tim Nyander, Utilities Director
SUBJECT: McClelland Consulting Engineers, Inc. - Professional Engineering Services
Agreement for Utility Relocations Required by ARDOT Project 012366 (612-E and
HWY 264 Vicinity)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of an engineering services agreement with McClelland Consulting Engineers, Inc,
pursuant to RFQ 25-01, Selection #17, for professional services associated with ARDOT Project 012366 Utility
Relocations in the vicinity of Highway-264 and future Interstate-612 in an amount not to exceed $634,940.00,
and approval of a budget amendment.
BACKGROUND:
The Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) has notified the City of Fayetteville to relocate water
infrastructure in the vicinity of the Highway-264 and Primrose Lane intersection in Springdale, AR. ARDOT is
planning a new section of Interstate-612 (also called the Springdale Bypass) to connect to Highway-412 near
Beaver Lake.
After receiving this notification, a formal selection committee was held on November 6, 2025, at which
McClelland Consulting Engineers was selected for contract negotiations (RFQ 25-01, Selection 17).
DISCUSSION:
The project scope includes relocation of approximately 1,800 linear feet of 36-inch and 1,800 linear feet of 42-
inch water transmission line. Due to necessary realignments, it is estimated the total length of the replacement
will be up to 8,000 linear feet.
Much of this project appears to be reimbursable to the City by ARDOT. However, preliminary engineering must
be completed first to determine exact qualifications. Afterward, a formal relocation agreement will be presented
to the City Council outlining the terms of reimbursement. This engineering services agreement will include
survey, preliminary engineering design, and cost estimations. Future amendments will be necessary for the
design to be finalized and bid-ready.
BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT:
The proposed contract is hourly in the maximum not-to-exceed amount of $634,940.00. A budget amendment
is attached to transfer funds from the Water System Rehabilitation account to the Water & Sewer Relocations
account.

2.7 Geotechnical Investigation
The ENGINEER will conduct a detailed geotechnical investigation along the
selected project alignment. The following is a detailed scope of work for this item:
Geotechnical Exploration and Field Services
o Up to eight (8) geotechnical borings along the selected route.
o Boring locations will be strategically placed across the project alignment and
at significant crossing locations in an effort to provide sufficient subsurface
information for the design of the proposed water transmission main
relocations.
o Borings will be generally located at a consistent distance along the
alignment and at anticipated trenchless installation locations.
o Target depth is anticipated at 20 feet below existing surface elevations
except for trenchless installation locations, which may require depth that
exceeds 30 feet depending on the roadway plans.
o The borings will utilize auger drilling techniques to advance to their
respective target depths or until materials resulting in auger refusal are
encountered; at that point, rock coring will be utilized.
o Soil sampling will occur at each location. The soil sampling methods will
utilize a two-inch diameter split-spoon sampler using the continuous soil
sampling method by means of Standard Penetration Testing (SPT) to 10
feet and every 5 feet thereafter. Soil sampling will be conducted in general
accordance with ASTM D1586 - Standard Test Method for Standard
Penetration Test (SPT) and Split-Barrel Sampling of Soils.
o Groundwater observations will be made at the time of drilling and prior to
backfilling. Long-term groundwater monitoring will be completed at up to
two (2) locations with the installation of up to two (2) piezometers. These
piezometers will be monitored approximately every two weeks.

Appendix A-1 – Scope of Services
I-612 East Utility Relocations
Page 8 of 10 3/9/2026
o Boreholes will be backfilled the same day they are drilled, following best
practice guidelines. The ENGINEER will make every reasonable effort to
minimize the waste generated, and the disturbance to the site. Project
borings conducted in pavement areas will be patched with like materials
following completion of the boring. The ENGINEER will not be held
accountable for complete site restoration including landscaping and/or
grading.
Laboratory Testing and Analysis
o Laboratory analysis will be performed on the recovered samples to
determine the engineering properties of the project soil strata. Laboratory
testing will be conducted in accordance with all relevant American Society
for Testing and Materials (ASTM) designations.
o Additional third-party laboratory testing will be performed on recovered
samples for corrosion potential, which will include testing for soil resistivity,
pH, sulfates, chlorides, sulfides, and redox potential.
Geotechnical Report
o The ENGINEER will develop a written geotechnical report to include the
following scope items:
o Site Description.
o Detailed Evaluation of Subsurface Conditions.
o Seismic Considerations.
o Lateral Earth Pressures.
o Groundwater Conditions.
o In-Situ Rock Properties and Elevations.
o Additional items may include frost penetration depth, wet weather
construction considerations, and recommended construction monitoring.
o The final report will be submitted to the CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, and
findings from this report will also be incorporated into the relevant
preliminary design items.
2.8 Conceptual Plans
Once TM No. 1 has been completed and accepted by the CITY OF
FAYETTEVILLE, the ENGINEER will prepare conceptual design plans to an
approximate 15% completion level. Plan sheets will be set up to a 1” = 40’
horizontal scale. The preliminary plans will at a minimum include the following
information:
