ACTION/MOTION: (This language identifies the formal motion to be made by the Council) 
Council to take action to preauthorize the City Manager to approve construction actions, contracts and
contract amendments for Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Project No. 106050, Intersection
Improvements: Watson Road and Broadway Road, in an amount not to exceed the approved
construction budget of $7,500,000.00, to allow phased implementation of the project; approve the
Cooperative Contract Purchase Addendum (CCPA) (Contract No. 32600134) between the City of
Buckeye, an Arizona municipal corporation, and KCR, Inc., doing business as Petra Contracting, an
Arizona corporation, in the amount of $669,914.90, for the relocation of Roosevelt Irrigation District (RID)
irrigation facilities, which represents the first phase of construction; and authorize the City Manager to
execute and deliver said CCPA and to take all actions necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of
this authorization on behalf of the City of Buckeye.
SUMMARY
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
CIP Project No. 106050 consists of planned intersection improvements at Watson Road and Broadway
Road to improve safety and traffic operations. The ultimate project scope includes installation of a new
traffic signal, addition of turn and through lanes, and associated roadway and safety enhancements. Civil
engineering design for the full project has been completed.
Through this Council action, staff is requesting construction authority for the full project budget, allowing
work to proceed in phases as dependencies are resolved. The initial construction phase includes
relocation of Roosevelt Irrigation District (RID) irrigation facilities, which would be completed under the
proposed CCPA with Petra Contracting. Completion of this phase is required prior to initiation of the
remaining intersection improvements, which would proceed as right-of-way acquisition and final dry utility
relocations are completed.
BENEFITS:
Approval of this request would provide the City with the flexibility to efficiently manage and deliver the
Watson Road and Broadway Road intersection improvements within the approved $7,500,000
construction budget.
Approval of the proposed CCPA with Petra Contracting in the amount of $669,914.90 would allow the
City to immediately initiate critical RID irrigation relocation work, which represents the first construction
phase of the project. Establishing construction preauthorization reduces schedule risk, minimizes delays
between phases, and supports timely delivery of safety and operational improvements.

FUTURE ACTION:
Completion of the Roosevelt Irrigation District (RID) structure relocations will allow the project to advance
into the remaining intersection improvements. In the near term, staff anticipates initiating a hard-bid
solicitation and proceeding with contract award under this authority requested from City Council.
FINANCIAL IMPACT STATEMENT:
The CIP Project is programmed under account 50213170-543150 in FY 26 with a total approved
construction budget of $7,500,000.00. Staff is requesting City Council to preauthorize the City Manager
to approve construction actions and contract amendments for the project up to this amount.
The proposed Cooperative Contract Purchase Addendum (CCPA) with Petra Contracting is in a total not-
to-exceed amount of $669,914.90 and represents the first construction phase. Sufficient funds are
available within the approved CIP budget, and no additional appropriation is anticipated.
